has urged the District Commissioners
to aid the Park Commission i'll the

preparation for the next fiscal year as
authorized by permanent law.
Your committee submits to the
board that to cut down appropriations
for purchase of additional park areas.
merely for the purpose OF saving
money for the next fiscal year, is
short sighted policy. 1t means that
later we taxpayers must pay far more
for the land than would be now re
ouired if. indeed. the availability OF
the land is not meanwhile destroyed
entirely.
"The experience of the Rock Creek
and Potomac Parkway Commission
furnishes an illustration of the lack

pursued.

ultimately be secured for park pur-

Your committee does not regard
appropriations for acquisition Of added

category as current expenses, which
must necessarily be handled year after

merely expenditures.

Few Shouts of Amnesty" From

BERLIN. January 6.-Except for a
few shouts of Amnesty" from the
Communist benches. the first meeting
of the recently elected Reichstag
passed off quietly yesterday.
The opening was in sharp contrast
to the initial meeting of the preced
ing Parliament. when Kisses and roars
of disapproval from the Communist
and Ultra Nationalist benches made
ordered progress impossible. When
the gavel fell yesterday there was a
mild hammered and unsuccessful at
tempt by Communist Deputy Thael-
mann to obtain the floor before "a
demonstration.
After the roll call the Peoples
Party offered a motion to adjourn
until the formation of a cabinet, but
only the members of that group and
the German Nationalists favored it,
so that a motion to reconvene on
Wednesday for the choice Of presi-
dent and the organization of the
House prevailed.
One reason for the quiet session
was the absence OF Gen. Ludendorff
and Admiral Won Tirpitz. whose pres
ence might have been the signal for
an outburst.

Policemen SOOthe
2 Bulldog Guards
Then Raid Houses
T,UO Women arrested
and Liquor Is Seized at
CANNES Expense.

Strategy of police of the ninth pre-
cinct set at naught careful precautions
of persons at two houses which were
raided last night. The precautions
were bulldogs.
Capt. StolI. whose wits have been
sharpened In dealing with rum running
strategists and master minds in Ii
quor peddling since he has been COM
mandant of the ninth precinct, led
the first raiding party to the resi-
dence of Martha Carter colored, at
63S Brewers court.
A bulldog welcomed the raiders
with frown, a growl. and stiff-leg-
ged defiance. Capt. StoIl did not at
tempt violence with the animal All,
no! He sent enc of the raiding party
for piece of meat; used it to fiatter
the canine into fancied friendship,
and then ordered two others in the
party to transform themselves into
dog catchers. And presto! The raid
was made, and discovery of liquor
buried in a shed in the rear of the
house, together with some found be-
meath trapdoor in the house, re-
sulting in the woman being charged
with Illegal possession and sale of
liquor.
Methods used by Lieut.. Burlingame
ana his squad in persuading the sec
ond bulldog into allowing the raid to
proceed at the home of Ophelia Joyce,
colored, at 1899 Linden street, are
Nelled in mystery. 1t is known, how
ever, that the persuasion was accom-
plished in two minutes. Ophelia Joyce
then was arrested for alleged sale
and possession of corn whisky police
