A drive to have Twelfth street paved
from, Monroe street to Rhode Island

the Brookland Citizens Association,
meeting in Masonic Temple, Twelfth

The association also voted to apply
to the Public Utilities Commission to
have the center trolley poles moved
to the side of the street from the
bridge on Monroe street to the end of
the car line at Twelfth street and
Michigan avenue. Lee r. Wilson
made this proposal pointing out that
a similar change is being contem-
plated on North Capitol street as far
as Michigan avenue.
It was decided by the association
not to stage the customary Fourth of
