HOLDS ADVISORY
COUNCIL IS MENACE
Frank p. Leetch Also Resents
Col. Bells Comemnt on
14th Street Extension.

Attacking the Citizens Advisory
Council as not representative of the
people Of the District OF Columbia,
Frank p. Leetch, one Of the members
of the executive committee Of the
Washington Board of Trade. at a
meeting of the committee yesterday
termed the council as "the most
dangerous menace to the city today"
Mr.. Leetch. who reflected the
sponsored sentiments of a great num-
Der of the directors. officials and
members of the board, became anger
ed at the reply by Commissioner Bell
to the Board Of Trades letter sent
recently condemning the attitude of
the Commissioners I'm regard to the
extension of Fourteenth street and
, suggesting that the Commissioners
get opinions of local organizations
before they act on bills vitally affect
ing the District.
Col. Bells Reply Quoted.
Col. Bell in his reply stated. II am
in full accord with your views that
the Commissioners should keep ir
touch with interested property owners
and others relative to Legislative and
budget matters and have initiated
steps to that end during the past two
years." This reply, which was con
strued by those present to refer to the
establishment OF the Citizens Advis-
ory Council. did not meet with very
warm reception by the members OF
the Board of Trades executive com
mittee, and Mr.. Leetch declared: III
Is high time the District Commission.
ers pay attention to the wishes OF
established organizations which really
represent the city"
The general sentiment expressed by
many members Of the board was that
they feel that this council does not
truly represent the citizens OF the Dis
trict and that those who compose Its
membership have no authority to
speak for the people Of the District.
Higher Water Rates Opposed.
The proposed increase of the water
rates of the District by 25 per cent
was opposed by the executive com
mittee of the board in adopting the
report of the committee on water sup
ply under the craftsmanship of Francis
r. Weller. This report will be brought
before the full meeting Of the board
which takes place at the New Willard
Hotel at s O'Clock tonight.
Representative Carroll l.. Beedy OF
Maine will make the principal address
A number Of committee reports will
also be considered by the board.

Frankly admitting that officers of
the Women's Bureau of the Police De-
partment often have to make cases
without first seeking warrants sup
ported by affidavits, because delays
would mean police would arrive after
offenses had been committed, Lieut..
Nina G. Van Wrinkle, head Of the bu-
reau, last night declared that should
the District Commissioners one day
decide to abolish the bureau 1t would
be disastrous to the welfare Of the
city, in addressing the North Capitol
Citizens Association at the United
Brethren Church.
Mrs. Van Wrinkle pleaded for sup
port of the bill now pending in Con-
gress which would recognize the
Women's Bureau as a permanent in

only by congressional act.
