Rum running has been developed

eral dry officials.
The Canadian rum trust, backed
probably by American capital and
manned chiefly by Americans, has
developed a distribution machine in
that district comparable to that OF
the big industries.
On the Canadian side are numer-
Gus liquor warehouses connected
with the river by canals. Leading
to the warehouses are railroad spur
tracks furnishing direct commune
cation from the Canadian liquor
centers.

Der of boat houses on the Ameri-

LIQUOR smuggled over the border.
The dash from Canada to the
United States requires three to five
minutes, according to the speed or
the boat.
The liquor stores thus placed on
American soil are safe from mo-
lestation by the Government ex-
cepting through the use Of search
warrants, extremely difficult 70
obtain unless evidence of sale is
furnished. Liquor Is never sold
from lighthouses, but taken to De-

that chance Is extremely thin," a

Complete the Plaza Project !.

A bill has been introduced in the
Senate by the chairman of the COM
mittee on public buildings and
grounds to authorize the purchase of
seven squares of land lying between
the Capitol and the Union Station to
complete the long pending plaza
project. 1t proposes the reappropria-
ton of uneXpended balances of ap-
preparations made some years ago for
this same purpose.
Senator Fernald's object in pre-.
senting this bill is to bring promptly
to the point of action a matter that
has been allowed to lapse for a num-
mitted TO remain indefinitely in this
condition. The establishment of the
CapitolStation Plaza is in accordance
with definite plan, which has been
formally adopted and which would
have been carried through to execu-
ton but for two factors, the occur
renee of the war and the objection of
certain legislators to the procedure of
the condemnation and the prices
which 1t was proposed to pay for some
Of the land included in the area. The
condemnation having been halted,
after a number of the squares had
been definitely acquired and others
had been in effect secured and the
OF the war found the space partially
cleared. The Government then used
some of the land for hotels for the
housing of departmental woman EN-.
ployes.
The owners of the properties that
have not been finally purchased, be.
coming not unnaturally FESTIVE under
the ban which has deprived them of
the use of the land without compensa
ton, have placed them on the market
for sale. 1t is doubtful whether sales
could be made in the circumstances.
with the dead hand of probable pur
chase by the Government laid upon
this area. This land is too valuable
TO be thus scrapped as regards private
ownership, or TO be utilized for make
shift housing accommodations for
Government workers. when the emer-
gency which warranted their con.
struction has long since passed.
Eventually this improvement must
be made or the land must be restored
to private ownership without cloud or
hindrance and the natural develop
ment of that portion of tho oi+,, ,,a.
mitted to proceed. There is no econ
omy In delay and there is no justice
in procrastination. The passage of
the bill just presented by Senator
Fernald will put this matter in the
way of execution on terms that are
fair to private owners and to the Gov
eminent.

that the residential section would be
located mainly on the plateau stretch
ing east from the Capitol while the
business section would be placed in
the lower lands lying west and north.
But the .L'Enfant plans placed the
White House about a mile and half
west of the Capitol, and that fact
practically determined the trend of
the city. Furthermore, the prices at
which the land of the eastern plateau
was held by the first owners were so
high that most of the home seekers
and builders perforce went westward
in their first building enterprises.
1t was a little more than fifty years
ago that this elaborate row of build

residential structures in the city as

and builder conceived it as an ideal
location for foreign legations and the
homes of eminent Government Off

certain of the houses of the row for
specific occupancy. His project. how

resentatives was willing to go so far

interest, the State Department, and
Discrimination developed on the part

disappointed of his ideal of a great
social center, he at least had the salts.

greatly in the development of that

The New Traffic Signals.

a new era in Washington traffic
control begins today. At , o'clock,
with appropriate ceremonies at Scott
Circle, a switch was thrown and
traffic on Sixteenth street and Massa-
chusetts avenue became the puppet
of blinking electric signals, which
governed the ebb and flow of travel
with mechanical perfection.
SO Washington at last advances
toward modern thought in traffic con-
troll. 1t has been a laggard for years.
1t has passively allowed other cities
to go forward while it stood still.
Congress, until the last session. took
the same attitude. Even then. when
the traffic bill was passed. it was
more or less a haphaZard proceeding,
and the resultant law is not in any
way adequate to deal with present
conditions.
At any event, today's evolution Is
"A long step forward and should be
marked by a realization on the part
Of the Districts Legislature that
while this progress is highly com
mendable, there are many things yet
to be done in order to rank Wash
ington with other comparable cities
in the regulation of traffic.
Green for go" amber for eau
ton" and red for stop" are the sig
nails now being given on two of the
National Capitals main arteries. All
turns are made on the green signal.
A right-hand turn is made as usual,
left turn is accomplished by
stopping on the green near the right
hand intersection and finishing the
turn by proceeding when the
green flashes for a change of traffic
direction. The only difference is that
the motorist stops near the right-hand
side of the street instead of in the
middle, and that he cannot complete
the turn until a change occurs.
In the fire engine house on K street
is an emergency switch. When an
alarm is sounded requiring the use
of Sixteenth street this switch is
thrown. All signals Immediately show
red for every street. Traffic is in
stantly halted and the apparatus has
a free roadway for a fast trip.
Washington motorists will readily
adapt themselves to the new system.
Traffic will move smoothly and there
should be few accidents. Strict obedi-
ence to the signals is necessary, how
ever, in order that the system may
function 100 per cent for the speedy

season of the year, when windows are
normally kept closed to exclude the

a fatality. Drowsiness is quickly In
