CAMP
MUST GO

Construction of huge municipal
swimming pools on the site of the
present tourist camp in Potomac
Park is one of the principal
projects under consideration by the
Fine Arts Commission at it's meet
ing today.
The commission, according to
Charles Moore, its chairman, is OPP
posed to the present location Of
the tourist camp and feels that no
permanent buildings should be
erected on that location.
The meeting is being attended
by Maj. Il. S. Grant 3rd, officer
in charge of public buildings and
public parks, by special invitation
of the commission. He is expected
to submit his entire plan for
Identification of the city for the
approval Of the fine arts body.
The establishment Of two more
great approaches to the city is also
benig discussed by the commission.
The proposed gateways would be
established at the District line ends
Of Massa chusetts and Wisconsin
Avenues Northwest.
The development of these two
gateways, according to Moore,
would probably be along the lines
of the work now being done on the
Sixteenth Street entrance. The plans
call for plaza and parkway one
half mile in length with driveways
on each side Of a wide parkway TO
semi-circular parkway areas at
either end.

BILL
ON NIGHT
PARKING

A draft of the regulation pro-
hibiting all-night parking in the
District will be sent to the Board
of Commissioners this afternoon
by Traffic Director Eldridge.
Asked if his viewpoint had been
changed on the subject of all
night parking, Commissioner Fem
ming said that he had established
his position in the matter and
had looked up all the laws per-
tanning to the proposed regulation.
Protests Ignored
No mention was made Of the
hundreds Of protests which have
been received by all the Commits
sioners and forwarded to Fenning.
Director Eldridge said that he, in
conference with Commissioner Fem
ming today, had formed concrete
opinions about all-night parking in
Washintgon, but refused to reveal
the contents OF the draft which
ne will prepare fhis aftelnoon.
Eldridge has been aconferring
with Assistant Corporation Counsel
Ringgold Hart and it is said that
the various secti0en ofzIl1e proposed
rule have been agreed upon.
Plan Modified
1t is understood that the original
plan to ban aII-night parking has
been somewhat modified, SO far as
it prohibits the parking of machines
for more than four consecutive
hours after / o'clock in the morn
ing.
The proposed regulation will be
given consideration by Commission
ers Fenning, Rudolph and Bell at

ton that the proposed ban on all.
night parking is entirely tentative
In reply TO criticism of the ban
by Senator Jones, Commissioner
Fenning said that the proposed
regulation is still under considera-
ton. and hope to have an early
conference with the Director of
Traffic and the Corporation Coun-
sci. II a regulation is proposed
1t will receive the most careful con-
sIdefation of the Commissioners"
No Accident Record
Commissioner Fenning admitted
that there is no separate record of
accidents or collisions which can be
regarded as a direct result Of all
night parking.
He also admitted that no special
inconvenience was suffered by the
public because of parking between
the hours OF and a. m. He said,
however, THAT the regulation as
proposed will make the streets safer
Tor automobiles, pedestrians and the
FIRE Department and that it will be
possible for the Street Cleaning De-
paftment to adequately perform it's
important function in the early
morning hours.

REVEAL Ed

Merger prospects for the Dis
trict are Just as bright as ever,
Maj. w. E. R. Covell, public
utilities assistant to the Engineer
Commissioners, said today.
Reports that there is no posi-
bility Of unification Of the two
traction companies because the
North American Company does
not hold q controlling interest in
both concerns, are unfounded, de-
clared Major Covell.
"A popular piece Of misinforrna-
ton which has been circulated 20
the effect that the new owners of
the washington Rapid Transit own
all the stock in the Capital Trac-
ton and Washington Railway and
Electric Companies, should be cor
rected." he continued.
Major Covell stated that IL such
condition existed a merger would
have been effected long ago, as
there would have been no objec-
ton to q combination Of the same
interests.
The Public Utilities Commission
has known all along that the con-
trolling shares of stock owned by
the North American Company i'm
the Washington Railway and ElecA
trio Company We're large percent
ages of the block Of common stock
There are about $1,000 shares Of
this stock and the owners Of the
bus company contro1 IS per cent
Of this stock.
There still remains, however, 1t
Is pointed out, $4,000 shares OF
preferred stock, which have voting
powers and must be counted as
interest in the company, although
oftentimes controlled by proxies
which give officials of the company
power of casting the vote Of the
stakeholder.
Public utilities officials are still
of the opinion that the North
American Company is the largest
single stakeholder in the Capital
Traction Company, with 1902
shares.
Denial that the local traction
merger is dead or dying was also
made today by officials Of the
North American Company to mem
bers OF the Senate District Com
mittee.
