WALSH HITS SOVIET
FOR |MPERT|NENCE
Denounces Activities in Ad-
dress Before School of
Foreign Service.

Work Of Soviet Russian propagan-
dists in foreign countries was resent
ed as an international impertinence"
by DR.. Edmund A. Walsh, vice preSi-
dent Of Georgetown University. in an
address last night. at the School OF
Foreign Service.

this malicious propaganda.
'I am not afraid of this propaganda

great social inequalities. 1t is their
international impertinence to which {

and the effect of Soviet relations on
the rest Of the world, DIR. Walsh said,
is one OF the major factors in foreign
relations today.
Public apologists for Russia, who
contend that in refusing to recognize
the Soviet Union the United States is
contradicting itself by refusing to
recognize the right of revolution, were
termed either Ignorant or malicious"
by the speaker. In this class he placed
Senator Borah, chairman Of the foreign
relations committee.
The United States was the first gov
ernment to recognize the Kerensky
revolutionary government in Russia,
DIR. Walsh declared, because that was
a democracy founded upon the pre-
cepts of international law. Upon its
overthrow by the bolshevists in No
vember, 1918, and the establishment
Of a government that challenged the
basis principles of organized sociot-.
he declared, the United States has re-
recognition until conditions have
changed.
While declaring the teaching of re-
ligion to persons under Is years Of
age is still punishable with possible
death in Russia, DIR. Walsh declared
that religious persecution alone is
not bar to recognition"
Compares Two Revolutions.
DR.. Walsh's address was one of
series on current problems of foreign
relations being given at the school by
prominent university professors and
public men. He made a comparison of
the American and Russian revolu-
tions.
1.-THE American revolution was a po-
litical revolution" he said, "but the
Russian revolution was deliberate
challenge to the basic principles Of or
ganized society, not only in Russia,
but throughout the world. Had the
Russian revolution confined itself to
redressing the wrongs that had been
inflicted upon its people, there would
have been no complaint.
1.-THE first revolution resulted in the
establishment of a democracy. The
Soviet Union, when it came into
power, repudiated all international OBJ
legations and international law as il
exists. It's reputation of these sacred
obligations puts the Soviet in class
by ITSELF"

ELDR|DGE POWER
OVER PERMITS HIT
RevoCations and Suspen-

VioIatorS of Traffic Laws.

The authority OF the director of

alton Counsel Francis II. Stephens.
otherwise. Mr.. Stephens said, the
traffic director may suspend or revoke
a permit for violation of any regula-
ton or law from splitting on the side
walk TO wilful murder"
The opinion was written at the re-
quest of NJ. o. E,ldridge, acting traffic
director, who inquired as to his au-
thority to revoke the permit of a
driver suspected OF being in the en-
ploy of bootlegger
Permit Was Restored.
This driver was arrested last
January for leaving after colliding.
but his case was nolle pressed in court
and his permit was restored. When
reported by the police to be in the
employ of bootlegger, Mr.. Eldrtdge
asked IL the law gave him the au-
thority to again revoke the permit
under such circumstances.
Il am Of the opinion that the di-
rector could not now revoke the
permit" said Mr.. Stephens. Il
think this authority should be rea-
sonably confined to traffic laws and
regulations. There is no longer any
traffic matter involved, for the col
liding case is ended. He is now
with making whisky.
Opinion Is Approved.
"The director of traffic inquiries If
he has power TO cancel the permit
and what policy to pursue in this
kind of case. | do not think it was
the intention of Congress to invest
the director of traffic with any
authority outside of traffic and give
him power to revoke permits of citi-
zens in all matters outside as we'll
as within the traffic regulations. If
he have such authority he may
suspend or revoke a permit for the
violation Of any regulation of law
from splitting on the sidewalk to will
full murder"
The Commissioners approved the
counsers opinion and
also ordered Mr.. Eldridge to restore
the permit of an attorney in the
prohibition unit which had been sus-
pended for so days for alleged use
of improper Language to two young
women employed in the traffic de-
partment.

PROPOSE STREETS
THROUGH BUILDING
Triangle Committee ConSid-
ering Plan to Handle Traffic
About New Structures.

Construction of one great building
in that part OF the so-called Govern
ment triangle, bounded by Twelfth,
Fifteenth and b streets and Pennsyl.
vania avenue, was suggested to
Treasury Department officials yester-
day at the conference with the triangle
committee of the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission. The
plan would provide for passing streets
through the building, instead OF haV-
ing a series of separate buildings
divided nv streets as at present
planned.
The triangle committee orlsnhaI,y
took I'D the matter as a traHlc piop
lem to consider the great volume VI
traffic that will pour into ana ouI VI

One Building Proposed.
Tieut. Col II. S. Grant, Sd, execu.
tive officer of the National CapltaI
Park and Planning Commission, sald
that it was then pointed out to the
officials of the office of the supervising
architect of the Treasury that IL
might be better to treat the proposed
structures in this area as one great
building, with the streets passing
through them at grade.
1t was also pointed out that the m
dividual buildings as proposed Woulo
he more or less alike in architecture,
and that il would be just as attractive
to construct them as one building.
More Floor Space.
This not only would give additional
floor space above the streets, put
would save considerable in the cost
of construction in that much of the
colonnading could be done away with,
as it would not show on the streets,
but the inside would be more or less
a series of courtyards.
No decision was reached on any or
these matters, and the members OF
the committee will give the problems
further study, having in MIND the
general idea that east and west trail
fic should be passed into and out or
the area below grade, leaving the
north and south traffic on grade, as
at present.

.DRAF rs NEW RULE
FOR AUTO SPACE
Stephens Presents Text of
Regulation for Use of
Shipping Entrances.

A new regulation governing the
use of shipping entrances in front of
business establishments was submit
ted to the District Commissioners to-
day by Corporation Counsel Francis
H. Stephens as a substitute for the
existing regulation, which he has held
is invalid because it grants an eX-
elusive right to the merchants.
The text of the regulation, which
Mr.. Stephens drafted at the direction
OF the Commissioners, follows:
Text of Regulation.
"No vehicle shall stand at the
usual shipping entrance Of any store
or commercial building except for the
purpose of loading and unloading
passengers or merchandise and only
so long as may be reasonable for
such purpose. Such entrance shall
be designated by signs erected on
permits issued by the director of
traffic"
Such a regulation, in the opinion of
Mr.. Stephens, will allow the public
to share the shipping space reserva'
tions with the merchants. and has
none of the discriminatory feature
of the existing regulation.
To Go i'm Traffic Code.
Mr.. Stephens recommended that the
regulation be inserted as a new para
graph in article II of the traffic code,
and that the words, "or at the regular
entrance of any commercial build
ings" be stricken from paragraph b
of that article which forbids the park
ing of vehicles in certain locations,
The corporation counsel also sug-
gested that the Commissioners send
copies of the proposed regulation TO
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association, the Board of Trade and
the Chamber of Commerce for consid.
Grafton and comment. In view of this
recommendation the Commissioners
are not expected to take action on
the regulation until reports are re.
ceived from these trade organizations.
