BLANT0N HEEDS
PARKING RULE

Returning to the Navy Building
today on official business Represen.
tative Thomas L. Blanton, did not
exercise his immunity from arrest
for parking violations. He parked
his car in the two-hour parking area.
At the office Of Col. U. s. Grant,
director Public Buildings and Parks,
1t was denied the director had upheld
the Representative in his argument
with Capt. M. H. Parsons, Super.
intendent Of the Park Police. The
argument, it was pointed out, did not
involve the question of the Represen-
tative's legal right to park where
he desired, but was merely a request
that Representative Blanton not
park directly in front Of the en-.
trance to the building when other
space was available.
Captain Parsons also denied today
that he had any knowledge of the
presence OF newspaper men. He at
tempted to reach the Representative
in the building and failing In this
he met Blanton at the curb, he ex-
planned.
One version Of the affair was that
a guard had warned Blanton against
parking in the space he selected.
This was the explanation given the
captain OF police. On the other hand,
the Representative insisted that the
guard had agreed to his parking in
front of the entrance.

CITIZENS WANT
BELL To STAY

Congressional action probably will
be necessary to permit Engineer
Commissioner J. Franklin Bell to
remain in his present office after his
term expires June 25, it was learned
today. Army regulations require
that every line officer must spend
one year out of every five with
troops"
This would make it necessary for
Colonel Bell to return to some Army
post in June unless Congress acts.
Colonel Bell said today that he
was perfectly willing to remain in
the Distict Building If his superior
officers so. desired.
AS the end Of his terms nears
the Washington civic workers are
organizing to try and get an exten.
sion of his appointment.
Many citizens associations al.
ready have petitioned President
Coolidge to reapoint him.

DOCTOR BILL UP
FOR HEARING

Physicians, osteopaths, chiroprac-
tors and Christian Scientists are
slated to appear before the Senate
District Committee late this after
noon to debate the merits Of the
Copeland bill, regulating the practice
OF medicine in the District.
The measure has general support
among all practitioners of medicine,
1t is said, chiefly because it creates
higher standards for the admission
Of new physicians and others to prac.
tice in the city.
The bill is designed to prevent a
further influx of unframed physi-
clans into Washington.
Senator Copeland, who sponsored
the bill, is a physician himself, and
thinks that the standards of medi.
cine will be greatly increased in the
city by the enactment of the meas
ure.

VIRGINIA 7 A c s
BOOTLEG AID

Police officials and District an.
thorities are worried over the color
scheme selected by Virginia authori-
ties for automobile tags Of that
State.
The 1927 Virginia tags are a com.
bination of green and scarlet which.
autholitise point out, are hardly Wis.
ible under the best conditions for
more than so feet, and are scarcely
intelligible at any distance at night.
The poor color selection will make
1t almost impossible for police to
check up on criminals and traffic
violators, 1t is said. In fact some
officials are afraid that bootleggers
and other criminals. will purposely
get the Virginia tags for their own
protection.
THE Virginia tags are the worst
have even seen." Traffic Director
M. o. Eldrldge declared today.
II am planning to present the
case to the conference OF motor We.
hicle administrators at Patterson,
N. j., January 90 and 81 in an
attempt to prevent such a calam-
ity, in future years"
The traffic director said he knew
OF nothing than can be done this
year, however, to prevent trouble
bound to arise.
