MOFFIT
For the benefit Of the patrons
on the new rural route which opens
out from Moffit. in the very near
future. we will quote part Of Sec
tion 827-P. L. r.: Gail mail boxes
are to be placed on the right hand
side of road regularly travelled by
carrier and in such position as to be
easily and safely accessible for the
| delivery and collection of mail by
the carrier without leaving his con-
veyance." Patrons as far as prac-
ticable. keep clear the approaches to
their boxes by promptly removing
distractions which may render diff
ficult or impossible the delivery of
mail by the carriers. So that their
appearance may be improved and
the general neatness of the rural
route kept up, the department sug-
gests that the boxes and posts be
painted white, the owners name in
black letters to be on both sides of
mail box. Uncle Sam feels that all
of the patrons of his postoffice de-
partment should appreciate the SER
vices rendered enough to cooperate
little. at least in the extent to
provide neat and waterproof boxes
in which to get their mail.

The Washington Real Estate Board

Mr.. Colladay told tho realtors that
there was no way in which the peo-
pie of the District could have a voice
in the laws that governed them un-
less they had Representatives in Con-
gress. THE proposal of voteless
delegate in that body would be a
mere empty SHE'LL. declared Mr.. Col
laday, whos suggested that the Dis
trict should have voting Representa-
tives based on population and one or
two Senators, all of whom should be
elected by the citizens.
The right to vote for presidential
electors was also declared essential
by Mr.. Colladay. He pointed out that
the bill proposing the necessary
to the Constitution to en-
franchise the District, as it now
stands, would also grant the right to
take court actions from the State
into the Federal courts.
Explaining that the District is pro-
represented in each Of
the party conventions, Mr.. Colladay
said that the citizens were asking
no more of the people of the coun-
try than is recognized and granted by
the political parties.
'"The grade of intelligence of the
people in the District Is higher than
in the States. BY the last census its
population is greater than the seven
smaller States, and possibly by now
Is greater than nine Of them" de-
clared Mr.. Colladay, who said that
