most painstaking work to train the

MIR Hampton. They SHE'D, backed

to this feeling of nervousness. Many

the cameras began to click the horses

The extensive growth of the motion

beyond any doubt in the Universal

Months were spent in extensive re

Philip King Writes Repre-.

Immediate Action.

A compulsory snow-cleaning law

business establishments Is asked by
President Phillip King of the Mer-

ton in a letter to Representative
Focht. chairman of the House Dis
Irict COMMITTEES. In his letter Mr..

conditions which now exist in Wash

days ago.

disaster. Mr.. King asserts that he
feels sense of responsibility in
urging upon the House committee
speedy action of this matter.
Text Of Letter.
Mr.. Kings letter follows:
IL mas been five days since the
cessation OF the recent big snowfall,
and still sidewalks are covered up
win snow. cutters are damned with
snow, SO as to make ponds Of the
city streets; street crossings are run
ming with water and slush and, in
general. locomotion for the pedestrian
Is not only hazard, but constitutes
a decided health menace.
4Ac SOHOillOH OIL CQe streets with
their snow and ice hummocks is GER
tainly a sad commentary on any COM
munity, much less the National Capi-
tai.
Surely the need is great enough
for immediate action in the passage
Of a law enforcing the cleaning of
snow and ice, not only upon the busi-
ness house and the householder, but
certainly arrangements should be
made whereby the District Commits
sioners could meet such'an emergency
as Just arose. The same sort of emer-
gency fund could be employed in ad-
ministering to the needs of the public
in the event of some other unusual
happening.
Il am conscious of the fact that the
recent snoWstorm was quite unprec-
edented, but, allowing even for that,
1t is hard to conceive that We should
lack legislation such as would make
1t mandatory not only to clean the
sidewalks for the pedestrian, but also
facilitate the arteries Of motor and
horse drawn vehicles
why is it that the government
fails to properly meet emergencies
The use of vision is a necessary ad =
junct in all avocations. but since that
has not been employed certainly the
present dire need of the community
is so manifest as to warrant almost
instantaneous legislative action on
snow and ice removal of every char
acter."

vicinity.
There is no standard equipment of

increasing speed, and in few Sec

into the air. In landing. the plane
experienced no trouble either, and as
the plane descended the pliable ski
glided and bounded a bit over the
snow and after few glides skimm ed
along until it was brought to a stop
near hangar.
Arrangements have been made for
adding the ski to other planes, for
which a Fokker is under considera-
ton.
