STREET WIDENING
STUDY NEAR END
Traffic Board Report to Be Made
Soon-Cost Several Hundred
Thousand Dollars.
TO ASK BOULEVARD SYSTEM
Body Proposes Main Arteries Of
Traffic Be So Designated.

The commissioners within a few
days will be given report on the
proposed widening of five downtown
thoroughfares to improve traffic con-
ditions by Maj. w. II. Holcombe,
chairman of the traffic board The
major said he would get the report
to Commissioner Bell in time for the
city heads to take it to the Capitol
when hearings are held on the Dis
trict bill if they see fit.
The streets being considered for
widening are: l. street, 5th to 18th
18th street, + to Massachusetts, ave-
nue.; 10th street, f to Massachusetts
avenue; 18th, New York avenue to
Massachusetts avenue, and 18th
street, New York avenue to X street.
Maj. Holcombe said he has work ed
preliminary figures showing the pro-
posed widening would cost several
hundred thousand dollars. The traf-
nc board next will take up the ad-
visibility of designating certain main
arteries as traffic boulevards. On
such boutevards, if established, traf-
lie operating on side streets would
stop before crossing the main artery.
The traffic board has not given con-
Sideration to the reaSonableneSs of
present speed limits, Maj. Holcombe
said. He declared that it should be
the aim to punish reckless driving re-
gardlesS of speed.

REGRETS PUBLIC TRIAL'

A court finding that a child under
eighteen years of age. has violated a
federal law should not stand as a
criminal record against a child, Sec
retary of Labor Davis recommends
as one Of the principal features of
Legislation modifying present federal
practice in dealing with Juveniles in
a letter to Senator Shortridge Of
California.
Persons under the age Of eighteen
years who violate federal laws should
not be dealt with as criminals. but
as delinquent children in need of spe-
cial protection for their own well
fare and the welfare of society. Mr..
Davis declared, in answer to letter
from Senator Shortridge requesting
information on juvenile court prac-
tice. The processes of indictment
and public trial are not applicable; |;
procedure should be informal and in
accordance with the principles of
chancery and the public should be
excluded from the hearing, he added.
The Labor Secretary urged co-op-
Grafton of state courts having juris-
diction over delinquent children and
been developed by these courts for
the protection and care of delin-
quent children. To this end he sug-
gested the United States attorney for
the district in which federal law has
been alleged to have been violated
by a person under the age of eight
cen years should report to the state
court having juvenile jurisdiction the
entire circumstances and details.

WINS CASE AGAINST WORK
Logan Rives Grant of Mandamus
Writ Upheld Here.

The District Court of Appeals in a
opinion by Chief Justice Smyth yester-
day affirmed the action of the District
Supreme Court, granting 4 mandamus
against Hubert Work, Secretary of
the Interior, to compel him to take
jurisdiction of claim for $500 made
by Logan Rives for loss sustained in
connection with the production of
manganese for use of the United States
during the world war.
The claim related to a land pur-
chase near Batesville, Ark, in July,
1918, which Rives said he made be-
cause the land contained manganese
in sufficient quantity for commercial
purposes. With the signing of the
armistice the need for this material
ceased and the land was so depreciat-
ed in value that Rives stood the loss
of $4,000 as liquated damages rather
than complete the purchase. The Sec
retary refused to allow the claim and
Rives brought suit.
