URGE REGULATION
+ Of D. c. TRADES
Rhode Island Avenue Citi-
zens Indorse Measure to
Increase D. C.. Powers.

The Rhode Island Avenue Citizens
Association, meeting in the Sherwood
Presbyterian Church hall last night,
approved in part the proposed meas
ure for increasing the powers of the
District Commissioners.
The granting of additional power to
the Commissioners to regulate the
trades was approved, provided that
they be allowed to regulate only
those trades which are now regu-
lated by existing law. The right to
regulate assessment on property
owners for the fixing of streets. road
ways and alleys was indorsed, with
minor changes in phraseology recon-
m 'nded.
This part of the measure was ap-
proved following A report by A. I. Gu
sack of the committee on law and legiS-
iation. Mr.. Cusack, in his report, reit-
Grated and emphasized the Importance
OF the association opposing vigorously
the appointment of judges and the
Board of Education by the Commission
ers. The association had previously
considered other parts of the pro-
posed bill and last nights action en-
ableS it to express its opinion in full
on the document.
Grade Crossing Dangers.
Statements were reiterated regard
ing the danger of the grade crossing
near Langdon, where roadway runs
across the Baltimore and Ohio Kali
roads tracks. B. F. Edwards recalled
that IA people had been killed at the
crossing and urged that the associa-
tion push a former request that the
crossing be done away with.
A resolution was adopted to request
the board of education to furnish
transportation facilities for children
living at long distances from the
1angdon School.
Another resolution was adopted re-
uucsting the District Commissioners
to establish another fire engine house
in the immediate vicinity, the present
engine company being declared In
adequate.
The Public Utilities Commission
was commended for its action in re-
fusing to permit the street railway
companies to install any more one
man cars, and further request was
made in the resolution to have the
one-man car done away with alto
gether, William S. Torbert introduce
ing the resolution.
New Sidewalks Asked.
Sidewalks on Rhode Island avenue
northeast between TWenty-eighth tn
street and the District line were
asked for in the form of a resolution
to be forwarded to the Commissioners
William S. Torbert was thanked fol
work done while he was editor of the

POLICE
TO Be ADVOCATED
Trade Board Committee Fa-
vors Plan Outside of
Congested Area.

The gradual motorization of all po-
lice patroling the city outside the
congested area will be recommended
by the Board Of Trade committee on
public safety in its anual report No
vember 10.
1t was pointed out that some pa
trolmen have beats that carry them
many miles. and their efficiency would
be tripled If they were given motor
cycles or small automobiles. The
committee declared that Berkely,
Calf, had mounted it's entire force,
and that a large part of the police
men in Chicago were using motor
cycles or small cars. The measure,
the committee states, would help the
policing of the city in the event that
Congress refused to add the 800 ur-
gently needed additional men to the
force.
The question of drivers permits
was discussed and the committee
will recommend that applicants. after
their examination, be given proba-
tionary permit extending from six
months to year, which could be re-
yoked or suspended If the owner was
arrested for any traffic violation. 1t
was pointed out that large amount of
the traffic violations and accidents
involved persons who had just learned
to drive, and who in getting their
permits felt that they were expert
operators.
Plain Clothes Policing Up.
In response to letter from the
A. A. A. opposing the use of plain
clothes officers to arrest traffic Vio-
lators the committee, while not in
favor of this method, stated that un-
der the present conditions there was
none other to use. 1t was declared
that there are only eight traffic offi-
GERS patroiing the city and that four
are in uniform and four in plain
clothes, alternating every day The
committee feels tat If there were 80
or 100 of such officers the work could
be by men in uniform. officers patrol
ing the city on motor cycles always
wear their uniforms at night.

Similar organizations have been

CITY TO OBSERVE
GOLDEN RULE DAY
Residents Urged to Eat
Frugal Meal Sunday to
Aid Near East.

To observe Golden Rule Sunday, De-
cember 7, 1t is pointed out by those
in charge of the observance, the
American people are asked to eat a
frugal meal and donate to fund for
feeding 10000 children of the Near
East.
The international Golden Rule or
ganiZation, which is behind the move
ment has headquarters in Geneva,
Switzerland. and is represented in
America by the National Golden Rule
Sunday Council for the wear East Re
lief, headed by DR.. John H. Finley,
editor of the New York Times.
Americans are asked to eliminate
the soup and the fish and the meat
and the vegetables and the salad and
the dessert" If the housewives do
not wish to leave off all meat, it is
explained they should attempt to get
cheaper cuts on that day.
Nations Agree On Work.
THE nations can't agree on much
else says statement from head
quarters of the campaign, but they
can agree that little children whose
natural protectors fell victims to the
great war must not be allowed to
starve. So the most comprehensive
international cooperation that has
been achieved so far in the postwar
reconstruction of civilization is this
unity of benevolence for the sake of
assuring another years food and
clothing to the orphans of the Near
East-mostly the children, who by a
miracle of vitality outlived the fear
full days when the Armenian nation
was being pursued to the death by
Vengeful Turks.
TT is the Near East Relief which
represents this benevolence in Amer
cha, and through it every American is
invited to get in on something big
next Sunday-to have his part by a
frugal dinner and an unfrugal con-
tribution in CO. ordinating humanity
to help these 10000 boys and girls,
who, without a country of their own,
belong obviously to the world"
