FOWLER TOAbATE
SMOKE NUISANCE
Health Officer Assigns Five
Inspectors to Enforce D.. c.
Regulation.

A campaign against violations Of
the anti-smoke ordinance was started
today by Health Officer William c.
Fowler. Five sanitary inspectors
were assigned to the work of abating
the smoke nuisance.
In view Of the scarcity Of anthra-
cite and the high prices of fuel sub
stitutes, DIR. Fowler said he did not
believe smoke could be eliminated en-
tlreIy, but that the condition Of the
air can be improved.
The smoke situation in Washing
ton Is the worst l ever saw said
the health officer. Evidence comes
to me from time to time that more
care can be exercised by those who
fire furnaces. 1t Is apparent that
people are getting careless on the as
sumption that the Health Department
has suspended enforcement of the
smoke law because of the coal strike"
DR.. Fowler explained that enforce
ment of the law has not been sus-
pended, although he does not propose
TO be unreasonable in view of all the
circumstances. His intention, he said,
is to insist on diligent efforts to pre-
with smoke, SCOT and cinders.
The smoke ordinance does not ap-
ply to private residences. DR.. Fowler
is of the opinion, however. that ad-
vantage is being taken of the fuel
situation by manufacturers and others
in burning inferior grades of soft
coal, when they can procure better
grades.

VIRGINIA D. c. TAG
| USERS TRAPPED
Many Arrests Made Today in
War on License Law
n; InfraCtion.

CLARENDON, Va. February 2
Arlington County police today started
a rigorous campaign against Virginia
residents operating automobiles under
District of Columbia license tags.
All roads leading to Washington
were being patrolled this morning by
officers whose eyes were continually
focused on the little number plates on
the front and rear of the cars heading
toward the National Capital, and few
bearing District of Columbia tags es'
capped being stopped.
Many Drivers Stopped.
Drivers who could not give salts.
factory reason for using the DISTRICT
of Columbia tags were ordered TO ap-
pear before Judge Harry r. Thomas
in Police Court tomorrow morning.
Just how many drivers will have to
face the arm of the law could not be
ascertafned as the officers will be kept
on the roads all during the day and
will not make their reports until this
evening.
The reason for this infraction Of the
Virginia law is easily explained, one
official stated today. In the District
of Columbia, he said, the tags cost 81,
while in Virginia authority for driving
car stands the owner 60 cents per
horsepower.
This is a big saving if they get away
with it. this official explained, but If
they are caught up and convicted
there Is a different story to tell"
Fine Runs to $1i25.
The usual fine for this violation is
IS and costs, making about $14.25 in
all, and, in addition, the offender is
forced TO procure the Virginia tags If
he or she continues to reside in the
State and operate an auto.
The county officers also are keeping
an eye open for autoists using 1925
tags. Autoists were given until Feb
ruary I to procure their new tags and
the officers have been instructed to
arrest all using the old tags. One con-
viction on this charge was recorded
a. the courthouse today.

Labor Peace Sought.
The King pointed out that the i'm
provement in trade and industry at
the end of 1924. which it was hoped
would decrease unemployment. was
unfortunately checked early last year
by widespread depression in the coal
mining industry. Since Autumn of
last year signs of a revival Of industry
had begun to appear, but the growth
Of confidence upon which a revival
depended was being arrested by fear
Of industrial strife. Announcing that
the result of the commission of in
quiry into the coal industry would
shortly be published, he continued:
II am well aware of the difficulties
inherent in the whole situation. but
the interests OF the nation are para
mount and l appeal to all parties to
face the future in spirit of con-
ciliation and fellowship and avoid
action which would again postpone
the return of good trade and pros
pertty for which we have so long
hoped
He announced that the Government
had devised scheme for reorganiza-
ton of the electrical system and that
a bill would shortly be introduced to
give effect to those proposals. Agri-
culture was being carefully considered,
proposals for Improvement were being
formulated and a bill would be pre-.
