BEACH FOR COLORED
PEOPLE PROTESTED
Officials Reply That Congress Alone
Has Power to Change
It's Location.

Protests against tho establishme ent
of an additional bathing beach on the
Tidal Basin, under the act of Con-
Eress recently approved, which ap-
propriates 10000 additional TO a sum
already available for the provision of
bat hing facilities for the colored
population, are being received by the
Secretary of War and by Col. Sheriff.,
superintendent of public buildings
and grounds, under whom the work
is to be done The latest protest has
been filed by Mrs. John B. Sherman,
president of the General Federation
Of Women's Clubs. who declares that
as the drive around the Tidal Basin is
one of the most celebrated in the
world, il should not be marred by
bathing beach.
1t is pointed out at the War De-
partment, however, that these pro-
tests cannot be effectuaI to prevent
the establishment of the additional
bathing beach in the Tidal Basin
unless the act Of Congress is amend
ed. For that act prescribes that the
beach shall be located on the west
side of the Tidal Basin. The only
choice of the Department, through
the superintendent of public build
ings and grounds, in the matter is
in selecting the specific site on that
side of the basin. That which has
Been chosen is regarded as the best
suited for the purpose and the least
conspicuous as A DETACHMENT.
Thus protests against the establish
ment of the beach much be ad-
dressed to Congress. which, it is
noted, alone has the power to change
the location of the beach for coIored
people.

Near Bethesda, Md.

Frank Andrews, 65 years old, was
burned to death while he slept when

company which il formed to handle
it's workmen's insurance business, at
tempted suicide early today after an
nouDcement that he had resigned be-
cause of improper disposition of
$4,000 of the insurance funds.
A note which he left to sister,
Mrs. Mabel Dresser, said he had ruin
ed himself.
AT the hospital an orderly, who had
read of Jacksons resignation, asked
him about il. The patient Is said 10

Doctors See Recovery.
Jackson slashcd the veins in an arm
with razor after turning on the gas
from n jet. Taken to the relief hos
pital he was at first reported in n
serious condition, but subsequently
doctors said he was not on the danger
list and probably would recover.
AmpIifying the statement by the
public trustees of the railway that
Jackson, who had risen from an au-
ditorship to the vice presidency be-
cause of many economies that he ini-
tiated, had made disposition of $4,000
of insurance funds in a manner to
constitute "a distinct breach of his
fiduciary relationship l.. Sherman
Adams, a large stockholder of the
road, said Jackson had placed the in
surance company's funds in securities
unauthorized by law.
The insurance compnay's books are
subject TO inspection every three
years by the State insurance com
missioner. Examiners two weeks
ago began a general survey of the
accounts. 1t is understood that Treas
urer Jackson shortly afterward ap-
peared voluntarily before the trus-
tees and admitted the irregularities
that were followed by his resigna-
ton. The insurance departments in
spection is still in progress.
