FACE TEST TRIAL -.
Arrested for Blocking Side
walk and CurbIIne-Case to
Come Up November II.

Roy l.. Brady, superintendent Of
the eastern barn of the Washington
Railway and Electric Co.: Howard
Nash of 49, il -'.'t and Patrick Di-
vine of 257 Si>,,enth street southeast
the latter TWO motormen of the Wash
incton Railway and Electric Co, un-
der technical arrest for blocking the
sidewalk and curb line, appeared in
the assistant corporation counsel's of
flee in Police Court today to make an
swer to these charges
Because of the nature of the case,
II being a test. a continuance was
ordered by Assistant Corporation
Counsel j. NJ. Bell. jr., so that a com
plete argument might be prepared in
the meantime. The three defenda ants
were released on their personal recog-
niZance and will be brought to trial
in the District branch of Police Court
November Il.
The arrest was brought about by
Lieut.. O. L. Davis of the ninth pre-
cinct after a letter of complaint had
been received by the District Commits
Sioners and the Public Utilities Com
mission from members of the Lincoln
Park Citizens Association and mem
ners of the Eastern Business Mems
Association.
Notification of the complaint was
forwarded to the Washington Rail
way and Electric Co., officials of
which agreed to make a test case
of the matter, and so acquiesced in
the matter of the forthcoming ar
rests.
The three men were arrested last
Saturday, their arrests taking place
at Thirteenth and ID streets north
east, Fifteenth and East Capitol
streets and Fourteenth and East Cap
itol streets, where the alleged of
fenses occurred. These arrests were
made under an old act of Congress
passed in 1905.
1t is rumored that similar arrest
was made several years ago. the court
at that time taking the motorma II $
personal bond. The street car COM
pany, however, believes that street
cars are given special privileges and
are not violating the law when they
obstruct traffic or cut off sidewalks
when entering and leaving the vari-
Gus car barns, where they have been
accustomed to park for a short while.
The merchants take the other view
point, believing that they do unlaw-
fully obstruct both vehicular and Pc
destrian traffic, especially when the
two-train cars are in operation.

RAILROADS FACE
MERGER PROBLEM
Bird S. Robinson of Washing
ton Tells Association Con-
soIidations Are Necessary.
BY the Associated Press.

by tHe ASSo'lal'u IFfSs
MAMA, Fla, November 4.-Relieved
of the immediate danger" of Govern
ment ownership. railroads in the United
States now are facing the important
problem of consolidation into n limited
number of competitive systems Bird
s. Robinson of Washington. president.
today told members of the America n
Short Line Railroad Association. The
association opened it's annual three
day meeting here today.
The proposed consolidation plan, he
said presents a grave problem to the
short line railroad, "and it is all the
more serious. because, from the very
nature of conditions at this time, it
IS inevitable
Mr.. Robinson believes the plan
which the Interstate Commerce Com
mission is trying to work out for the
consolidation of roads, under the trans
portation act. is impractical and Sug-
Eests four amendments to the plan to
make it easily workable and effec-
tive"
Proposed Amendments Listed.
First. relieve the commission of
the practically impossible duty of
adopting an all-embarraSSing plan, a M
direct it to, as eXpeditiouSly as pos
y
districts, and adopt a limited or skele-
ton plan for the merger or consolida-
tion of the reads in each.
Second. authorize and direct the
commission to select certain OF the
larger and stronger systems in each
Of the districts, and designate them
as group heads or systems into
which other contiguous roads may be
merged.
Third provide that any group
head system may acquire by pur
cha Sc. lease or in any other lawful
way. any contiguous road, subject Il
the approval of the commission.
Fourth. confer upon each and
every road not designated is a group
head the right to file petition with
the commission asking that il be al
located to such group head system il
may determine"
Reversed Public Policy.
Mr.. Robinson declared that when
Congress adopted the provision of the
transportation act providing for the
consolidation of roads il not only re
Nersed the public policy heretofore in
effect but set aside the Sherman anti
trust law for the sole purpose of pro
tecting the weak and short lines and
tu preserve for public benefit the
transportation service rendered by
such lines.

Relies on Public Sentiment.
Asserting that the public senti-
ment which secured the enactment
of the law can secure its observance
and enforcement" Mr.. Wheeler sub
mits some suggestions for better law
enforcement based on conferences
with officers charged with that duty.
They include:
The arousing of public sentiment
within local communities through ed
ucational campaigns.
Campaigns for the election Of can
didates avowedly for enforcement
and i'm sympathy with the law.
The aiding of faithful officers by
reporting violations and supporting
honest officers against unjust attack.
The removal Of derelict officials

AS an aid to law enforcement in
further efforts will he made to obtain
legislation placing prohibition agents
under the civil service; providing jail
sentences for offenders engaged In the
commercialized illegal liquor traffic
providing for the deportation of aliens
convicted of violating the prohibition
and narcotic laws.
"Realm of Things Done"
Tn the realm of things done, Mr..
Wheeler discusses at some length the
reorganization plan recently put into

the work of the Coast Guard, customs
service and prohibition unit under a

which should furnish the closest CO.

Ready to Make Treaty.
The American delegation, in pre-
senting it's plan. stated that it is
prepared to authorize the immedi-
ately leyying of a surtaX of ~ per
cent in addition to the present gen
erul tariff of ) per cent ad Valorem,
and as soon as the requisite Sched-
ules can be prepared, The levying Of

Americans then are prepared to pro-
ceed Immediately to the neeoti2 ton
of such agreements as may be neces-
Sary for putting into effect other pro
visions of the Washington treaties
regarding China.
Reaffirming it's adherence to the
autonomy principle. the American
statements said the delegation was
prepared to negotiate treaty giving
effect to that principle. making pro-
visions for the abolition of the likin,
for the removal of all tariff reStric-
tions in the existing treaties and put
ting into effect a Chinese national

Article / of the American proposal
provides that the SurtaXeS mentioned
in the statement shall become effective

surtax and July /, 1926, for the luxury
surtax. and that the increased reve-
nues resulting from these levies are
to be held by the customs administra-
ton subject to such disposal as may
be agreed upon by this conference.
Article ? says that provision shall be
made for 1evying the full amount of
these SurtaXeS at all of China'S land
and sea frontiers. Article 3 says that
a new treaty shall be made containing
the following provisions:
l. Three months after the treaty
here concluded shall come into force,

A sharp note of warning and a paean
OF congratulation for the accomplish
ments in prohibition enforcement
down to this time are sounded in
report prepared by Wayne b. Wheeler,
chief counsel, for presentation tomor-
row at the opening of the biennial
convention of the Anti Saloon League
of America at Chicago.
With 40 national wet Orga MIA ations
mobilizins against the prohibition
amendment. Mr.. Wheeler declares
there must be eternal vigilance by the
dry forces. Already there has been
challenging opposition. he says. but
adds that in the face of the fight the
prohibition forces have moved uphill
steadily.
mo similar policy of government
has shown n. more continuous. con-
structive gain he asserts. adding:
THE desperate ferocity Of the oppo-
sition of the wet minority today Is a
testimony to the increasing effective
ness of enforcement. We are winning
all along the line.
Cites Activities of Wet Advocates.
Citing the activities of the Associa
ton Against the Prohibition Amend
as typical of the work of the wet or
ganizations, Mr.. Wheeler informs his
fellow workers that these asso-
Citations are concentrating on two
plans:
"Political campaigns to pick off the
drys in Congress and State Leglsla-
lures and a publicity campaign OF
Misrepresentation of prohibition.
Their program, if successful, he
argues, means notification of the
Federal law of the land and would be
an object lesson in contempt for law
unparalleled in history"
w. w. Atterbury, president OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and LarZ An
derson, former American Minister to
Norway, are two Of half dozen or
more men whom Mr.. Wheeler says
are named by the Association Against
the Prohibition Amendments as con-
Evening star., 1925-11-04

"a administrators scattered over the
country and in the insular posses
sions. Mr.. Wheeler says experience
will reveal the strength or weakness
Of this plan"
At another point in the report Mr..
Wheeler takes to task those who ap-
prove plans that divide responsibility
or applaud a change simply because
ii is a change.
We get about what we deserve in
law enforcement" he adds. When
good citizens really interest them
selves to the extent of taking an
active part in politics, in the pri-
maries and elections securing the
nomination and election of men who
are themselves in favor of the law
and then standing by those officers
in the discharge Of their duties, the
day of effective enforcement will
dawn and go on to the perfect day
of universal observance"
Recounting accomplishments to the
end of prohibition enforcement. Mr..
Wheeler refers to increased appro
pria tions for that work; the placing
of the Coast Guard into active serv-
ice against rum smugglers: nesoti-
alton of the rum treaties with Great
Britain. Canada and many other
taken to control the supply and to
keep liquors out of the illicit chan
nels.
Gratified by Congress Elections.
Calling attention that none of the
many bills proposed for light beer
and wines ever got out of commit
tee. the Anti-Saloon League chief
counsel points with qualification to
the results of the elections last No
vember In which was selected the
Congress that Is to meet in Wash
ington next month. &,

Suggested by Chinese.

Acceptance in principle by all the

customs conference of China's pro-
posal for restoration of tariff
autonomy by January /, 1929, caused
little surprise in Washington.
With the abolishment Of special
tariff treaties conditional upon an in

arrangements, the Washington Gov
