FIGHTS
HAVENNER

A bitter fight for the presidency
of the Federation of Citizens AS
sociations.. is predicted by factions
opposing DR.. George G. Havenner,
heretofore the only candidate for
that office, to succeed James c..
Yaden.
Charles I. Stengle, former men,
Der of Congress from Brooklyn.
and a member of the Petwortn Citi-
zens' Association. is being promi-
nently mentioned to take up the
fight against DR.. Havenner in the
coming election. Stengle is re-
ported to be gaining considerable
support.
His friends say Stengle's wide &C
'quaintance among members of Con-
gress and the privileges accorded
him on the floor of the House WoaIld
add greatly to his effectiveness as
head of the federation. Both
Stengle and Havenner have been
staunch supporters of the Yaden
administration. The election will
be held in November.
Opposition to DIR. Havenner has
developed steadily since his stand
against William Nick. Clayton on
the proposed street car merger
plan. Much importance is also
placed on his connection with the
Bureau of Efficiency.

noon stroll down the crowded thor
oughfare when the carefree young
man danced by him whooping with
joy.

his badge and asked what made
the world such a sunny place in
which to live and dance. The youth
at first was reluctant to reveal his
secret, but finally, according to
Allen, he said:
We'll, I've had a couple of drinks

PHIPPS TO
QUIT FIGHT
F()R).(.

Senator Lawrence G. Phipps,
of Colorado, one of the best
friends that the city Of Wash
ington has in Congress, viii
retire as chairman Of the Dis
trict appropriations subcom-
mittee within the next SIX
months, it became known to-
day.
: News of his decision to withdraw
from the local situation was COM
municated to local Republican lead
ers coincident with his return from
his summer European trip today.
Senator Phipps is expected to reach
Washington the latter part OF the
week, and at that timey it Is prop.
able that he will issue a statement
as to his plans.
Senator Phipps has been the
most consistent fighter in Congress
for return to the 60-4O principle
of apportioning local aprorlafionss
and in the last session OF Congress
made up his mind to block the pas
sage OF the District appropriation
bin rather than to permit the House
to dominate flrther in its lnsistence
upon the $4,000 900 Federal lump
sum contribution.
The Senate refused to follow his
leadership on this issue, however,
and since that time Senator PhippS
has been greatly discouraged and
disguised over the local outlook. He
is said to believe that his useful
ness as chairman Of the District
Appropriations subcommittee is at
an end if the Senate viii lot make
s'bitter end" stand to- abolish the
present lump sum principle.
The retirement Of Senator Ph1pps
will cause general regret among
washington citizens. because ne
has always been. in favor Of liberal
appropriations for the District and
of square DEAF for local tax
payers. Senator Phipps does not
plan to retire from his member
ship on the Appropriations Com
mittee. but merely to ask another
subcommittee assignment.

Attempts to coerce the Pub
lie Utilities Commission through
members of Congress into
denying the petition of the
Capital Traction Company for
higher fares were characterized
as highly improper today by
George +. Hamilton, chairman
of the company's board of .di-
rectors.
The fare hearings were closed
following HamiIton's address and
the petition was taken under adj
visement by the commission. Chair.
man John w. Childress announced
that a decision would be reached
as soon as possible.
whispering Campaign"
Hamilton asserted that the Public
Utilities Commission was estab-
lished as a judicial body to act as
a balance wheel between the public
utilities and the public. The solici-
tation of protests from senators by
the Peoples Legislative Service. an
interested party, was ''intolerable
and in violation of the principle OF
government by law" he declared
Strong language was used by the
company head in connection with
the activities of the legislative or.
ganization. He charged that Mercer
G.. Johnston, director of the organi-
zation, had conducted a whisper
ing campaign against the COM
pany and that his work was almost
IAN indecency."
The Public Utilities Commission.
Hamilton said, was never meant TO
be the subject of prejudiced whims
of individual members of Congress.
He said that he was not attacking
the congressman who had protested,
but the organization which solicited
the protests.
1t did not sound that way, how.
ever, when he declared that the
action of the Senators was IN a
par with creating a court and
then telling the court what decision
1t should make in trial
As result of the efforts of the
Peoples Legislative Service. IL
Senators and two members Of the
House sent protests to the commits
sion over the proposed increase III
fare pending settlement Of the
merger plan.
Most of Hamilton's concluding
address was in the form of lebut'
tai to the arguments made yester'
day by Peoples Counsel Ralph L
Fleharty, and others opposed Ia
the fare increase.
He asserted that the commission
has no right to refuse the company
an increased fare, because the com
pany is asking only part of what ii
has right to ask for.
Backs Up Petition
He attempted to give the impress
sion that the Capital Traction Com
pany has been the public's angel
during the recent years, declaring
that it has been entitled to an i1;
crease in fare for three years but
has postponed the application as long
as possible and has now only asked
for part of it's rights out of con
sideration for the riding public.
The public is taking contradic'
tory position" in opposing the IN
crease, he said, because in asking lor
onlv part of what it is entitled to
the company is acting in the publics
interest.
Hamilton attempted to forstall even
delay in the granting OF higher
fares by declaring that If the com
mission decides a new valuation Is
necessary it must still grant a higher
fare pending settlement of the valua
ton question. He said the commission
has no right to withhold temporary
relief to the poverty stricken com
DauV.

HOUSE

Fire protection for the
White House, other Federal
buildings, and the downtown
business district must be sf-
forded through the location OF
two fire companies on a new
site at Fifteenth Street, be-
tween d and Z Streets, Com
missioner ProctorL. Dougherty
was advised today by Fire
Chief George S. Watson.
The recommendation was made
to solve the problem which will
be created when the new companies
are forced out of their present
quarters in the Mall triangle.
After a usrvey of available sites,
which Watson conducted with
Municipal Architect Albert L. Har-
rls, a location at Nineteenth and b
Streets wits rejected. as also was
a site at Eighteenth Street ard
New York Avenue Northwest. 1t
was decided that these two loca-
tons would be too far from the
section requiring the most protec-
ton.
The units affected by this pro-
posai are No. Truck Company
and No. Is rgine Company, both
in the general vicinity of the FRO
posed new site. The fire chief
informed Dougherty that these COM
panies are designed to protect the
central business and Government
district. Both are due to answer
first-alarm at the White House and
10 char ge their present location to
any great extent would decrease the
desired protection.

ways been given special considera-
ton with regard to the response
of units in the event of fire." Wat.

partment has established defin re

DIED..
MISS ARABELLA MARTIN.

The many friends Of the late Miss
Arabella Martin were grieved to learn
of her death, which occurred at her
home on Oak street Sunday, February
10. She was the daugter of the late
Thomas and Ellen G. Martin and was
born and reared in Oakland. Miss
Martin had been in i'll health for some
time past, although not confined to
her bed until two weeks preceding her
death. She bore her sufferings with
true Christian fortitude and met all
who called with a smile and kind
word. She united with the Presbyter-
ian church at the age of 16 years and
was a consistent member of that faith
until i'll health prevented her from
taking an active part in the services.
She was kind and loving sister and a
true friend, always cheerful and will
ing to do her part and will be missed
greatly by a large circle of friends.
Miss Martin is survived by two sis
tiers, Mrs. John R. Kennedy, of Park
ersburg, w. Va, and Miss Dora Mar
tin, at her home here; also by three
nieces. Her funeral took place from
the Presbyterian church on Wednes-
day afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, the ser
vices being conducted by her pastor,
Rev. w. B. Brock, assisted by Rev.
Paul Linaweaver, of st. Matthew's
Episcopal church. The funeral was
attended by large circle of friends.
The following were the pallbearers:
Ronald McIntire, Walter Hardesty, Ell
wood Hinebaugh, Julius Walter, AL
bert Walter and Charles yelling. The
flowers sent by friends were numerous
and very beautiful, showing the high
esteem in which she was held. The
flower bearers were Alva Gortner, Joe
Hinebaugh, Harry Hinebaugh and
Philip Walter.

ner, of Wheeling, Miss Jennie Bough-
ner and Mrs. B. W. King, of Morgan
town, one daughter, Mrs. Herbert F.

THERE MUST BE INCREASE.

Every dairyman, farmer and bust
ness man interested in Garrett county
as a dairying county, should attend
the meeting Saturday afternoon in
the Maryland Theatre, Oakland. At
that time the Chestnut Farms Dairy
manager or a representative, will be
there to point out the things that
must be done by the farmers OF the
county so that there will be suffici-
ent amount of milk in sight when the
milk shipping station is completed and
ready for business.
It is not case of transferring milk
from one milk station to another,
for that would not benefit the count
one bit and would be Aanifestly I'M
it to the Oakland creamery Com
which has been buying the milk
roducers for several years.
is obvious that the milk for the
w dairy must come from an in
creased source of supply and it is for
this reason that the meeting will be
held Saturday. Ways and means of
improving herds, barns and equipment
will be explained and it is now up to
the farmers to make these improve
ments.
improvements must come before
there can be any increased amount OF
money coming in each month, and now
since it is assured that there will be
that extra amount, providing the
farmers will improve their barns and
herds, there should be no reason in
the world for hesitating.
The same principle applies here as
it does in advertising. One advertises
when business is bad and consequent
" improves his business. He doesn't
wait until business is good to adver-
tise his wares. Likewise the farmer
must make a few improvements be-
fore he receives any material gam.
The material gain will not come be-
fore the improvements. Every farmer
knows what would happen if he at
tempted to put the cart before the
horse.
So, in summing up, there are two
things to keep in mind that improve
ments must be made, and that there
must be an increased supply of milk.
Both will make Garrett county better
and incidentally be much more profit
20 the farmers.
