FORALLEyE ED|CT
Northeast Washington Citi-
. zens Oppose Vacation of
. Homes by First of June.
FAVOR 2 YEARS. GRACE
See Extreme Hardship Unless More
Time Is Given-Cramton Bill
Disapproved.

A two-year extension of the law
requiring the 5000 alley dwellers in
Washington to vacate their homes by
June l of this year will be urged
upon Congress by the Northeast
Washington Citizens Association at
a meeting held last night at the Ma
sonic Temple, Sth and + streets
northeast. The fact that no more
dwellings, were being erected in al
leys and that a number of people
were moving out of these locations
OF their own accord each year prompt
cd the association to arrive at its
decision.
Evan H. Tucker suggested a plan
of dividing the alleys into three
zones and compelling the occupants
falling under the first zone to vacate
in June. 1924. and the other zones
TO follow in June, 1925, and June,
1895. respectively.
Hnrd to Get Homes.
DIR. L. u. Walter declared that,
while he thought it would be a mis-
take to urge the repeal of the law,
lac did think that it would work
great hardShips on those who would
he compelled to move in June. He
pointed out that theE could not rent
houses as cheaply anywhere else as
in the alleys III which they lived. To
show this lie told the members that
lie had put an advertisement in The
Star to rent a house that he owned,
with the result that he got 175
answers from people wanting to take
up the lease.
Opposition was voiced to the bill.
as it now stands, providing for a
delegate for the District of Columbia
in Congress. 1t was the general opin
ion of the members that voteless
delegate would be worse than the
present situation.
The association also disapproved
the Cramton bill. which provides that
the federal government should aban-
don its present fiscal relations with
the National Capital, under which 1t
pays n fixed proportion of the eX-
penses of the District, and should
substitute therefore an annual ap-
preparation of $4,000 900 to help meet
the costs of the National Capital.
SUM Named Too Small.
Evan Fl. Tucker declared that with
the increase in values and expenses of
the District that sum of sS,00oOOO
would soon be less than 25 per cent
that the federal government would be
contributing to the upkeep of the
National Capital. This he did not
think fair he said.
In speaking of the effect of dope on
the people who have acquired the
habit. DIR. l.. ID. Walter urged that the
association petition Congress to ap-
propriate funds for the erection of
hospitals to help these unfortunates.
DR.. starr Parsons declared that he
did not think DR.. Ballou, superin-
tendent of schools, or any other high
official connected with the admins
tration of school affairs in the Dis
trict should get increases in their
salaries until the teachers of the
grade schools received higher pay.
The association appointed a COM
mttee to arrange for an entertain
1nent for the benefit of Casualty Hos
pital. On the committee are: Edward
