HOUSE APPROVES
2-CENT CAR FARE
Mcleod Bill for School Chill
dren Is Passed by Vote
of Fl to ID.

(From yesterday $50 Edition Of The Star }
BY vote OF Il to Ia the House this
afternoon passed the Mcleod bill pro-
viding 2-cent fare for school children
in the District of Columbia. This leg
islation was to have been included In
the street railway merger bill, consider
alton of which has been indefinitely de-
ferred by the House District committee.
John j. Noonan, formerly a heavy
stakeholder in the Washington Railway
& Electric Co., has been leading q cam
paign for many months to secure such
legislation.
Acting Chairman Mcleod Of the
House District committee and Repre-
sentative Hull, Republican, of WiScon-
sin led the fight for this measure in
the House, emphasizing that the pur-
pose was to make the public school
educational facilities available to a
larger number through removing a
financial handicap on poor families,
Representative Arentz of Nevada ar
gued n favor Of the District and Fed
eral gov crnments sharing jointly in the
cost OF providing free transportation for
school Children, thus cutting away from
the transportation companies any claim
on which to base an appeal to the Pub
lie Utilities Commission or the courts
or an increased fare for adults and to
Illustrate any claim for coniscation.
Representative Mcleod told his COL
leagues that in the principal States Of
the country children in the rural COM
munitieS are transported to school free
OF charge. He said that the health off,
Ger for the District reports that of
$1,000 pupils 81 per cent have physical
ailments, 22,50O are anemic and under
nourished, 2,030 have orthopedic dis
eases and 2,345 have pulmonary or lung
troubles.
twenty-five per cent of the school
children, he said. belong to families now
receiving aid from the Community
Chest or the Board Of Public Welfare
He referred to the fact that the ma
jority of the children come from fami-
lies of Government employees and that
the cost of transportation to and from
schools is serious drain on the family
income. In reply to questions, he said
that the entire cost of transporting
school children at the 2-cent rate of
fare should not exceed $4,000.
The House also passed the Hall bill
to postpone the closing of Center Mar
ket, with a provision that those now
occupying actual space in the market
after the Secretary of Agriculture has
been advised that the site is required
for the Federal building program.
'The purpose of this legislation" said
Representative Hall, "iS to permit the
operators of Center Market SUFFICIENT
time to make other arrangements in
connection with their business and to
provide the farmers a market for their
goods for the Summer season"

HOWELL BILL GETS
COMMITTEE'SO.K.
Dry Measure for Washington
Approved by Senate Dis
triCt Group.

(From yesterday $50 Edition Of The Star
The Howell bill to supplement the
national prohibition law in Washington
was reported favorably by the Senate
District committee this afternoon, with
the search warrant section relating to
dwellings included as modified by Sena-
Tor Howell several days ago.
Chairman Capper said following the
executive session of the committee that
the bill was reported out with the
understanding that individual members
Of the committee reserved the right to
oppose portions of the bill when 1t Is
taken up In the Senate.
The bill would give all members of
the local Police Department power to
enforce prohibition, whereas only 80
members of the force now have that
authority.
Search Clause Modified.
As modified at the last meeting, the
search warrant provision would permit
the issuance of search warrants for
dwellings where q still or diStilling ap-
paratus Is unlawfully set up or in cases
where Intoxicating liquor is unlaw-
fully delivered thereto for purposes of
sale or Is unlawfully removed there
from" Under existing law evidence of
sale is required in order to obtain
search warrants for private dwellings,
As originally introduced the Howell bill
would have permitted warrants upon
information that liquor was delivered
to or removed from a dwelling. The
modification agreed to by Senator How
ell inserted the words "for purposes of
sale" in connection with the delivery
Of liquor. The word "unlawfully" also
was inserted in connection with the re-
moval Of liquor.
The committee made another amend
ment to the section dealing with the
sale Of vehicles taken in connection with
prohibition enforcement. One or two
minor changes In phraseology were
made.
Duty Placed on Police.
The bill makes it the duty of all
members of the police force to inves-
tigate and report violations of the ma
tional prohibition law or of this meas
ure, and fixes a penalty for any officer
falling to comply with this feature of
the bill
1t also reenactS portions of the Shop
pard law, which made Washington dry
prior to national prohibition. A penalty
for drinking in public is carried in the
bill Of not less than $40 or more than
500 or from 5 to 80 days or both.
Another section fixes a penalty for
any person who knowingly permits any
building owned or leased by him to be
used as a nuisance within the mean
ing of the national prohibition law
without taking all reasonable measures
70 prevent such use.

contests impossible.
But chief OF all is desire for fame, found
In every youthful imagination. Every boy likes
to appear important In the eyes Of his COM
rades. He finds thrill In achievement, and
in most sports It Is uncertain and temporary.
But in tree sitting and bicycle riding fame con-
tjnues and increases. Each hour Of endurance
adds to prestige, and the longer the final mo-
ment is postponed the greater the interest be-
comes.
The consensus of opinion Is adverse to en-
duTance contests on the part Of boys In con-
trast, however, Is the statement Of DR.. A. l..
Stone, director of public health Of Camden,
N. j., who declines to accept the tree-sitting
epidemic as a menace to health.
ut Is the sort of thing which boys like to
do" said DR.. Stone "The publicity Of the
stunt may act as a psychological stimulus.
Boys can stand little fatigue, and predict
most of the sitters will come down when the
novelty wears of and before any damage is
done to their systems"
WHETHER or not the Juvenile craze for
endurance is q product Of 1880 that viii
have lost its novelty within another year, it
is q significant fact that the endurance craze
has been with US for quite q spell and is
