DOUBLE PARKING"
PLAN ENDORSED
M. & NJ. Association Protests
Elimination of Privilege as
Sponsored by Traffic Board.

Elimination of the "double-parking
privilege extended to commercial We
hicles on the streets of Washington, as
proposed by the Traffic Advisory Coun-
Gil at recent meeting, was opposed
today by the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association in letter addressed
to Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Crosby, chair
man of the Board of District Commits
sioners.
The association informed the Com
missioners of its opinion that If the
present regulation prohibiting pas
senger cars from parking abreast and
permitting commercial vehicles to park
double only when space at the curb is
not available were rigidly enforced,
much OF the present congestion would
be eliminated.
Adopted by Unanimous Vote.
The letter, signed by Edward d. Shaw
secretary of the association, states that
the board of governors of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association, after
careful study and consideration of the
matter, unanimously voted "to recon-
mend to the Commissioners Of the Dis
trict of Columbia that no change in the
present regulation permitting the double
parking of commercial vehicles while
loading or unloading merchandise when
no space is available at the curb be
made until some workable plan of pro-
viding facilities for taking on or de-
livering merchandise can be worked
out"
Association Letter Quoted.
The letter continues in part:
The suggested plan of providing
loading zones in each block, which
would be used by both passenger and
commercial vehicles in taking on OF
letting of passengers or merchandise
was tried some years ago in the down.
town business district, but was given
up as being impractical, as such spaces
were frequently occupied by parked pas
senger cars, and the spaces when avail
able were not convenient for the de-
livery of heavy merchandise and such
commodities as coal and fuel oil.
City Conditions Cited.
II SUFFICIENT loading zones were
created to permit all vehicles needing
such space to make deliveries con-
veniently, it would neceSsitate the elm
nation of practically all parking in the
business section and much Of the park

automobiles are now allowed to park

Association feels that If the present
regulation, which prohibits the double

commercial automobiles to park double
only when space at the curb is not
available while actually taking on or
delivering merchandise, were enforced,
that much of the present congestion
would be eliminated"

Edward w. Box.

Edward w. Box, whose death occurred
yesterday with startling suddenness,
gave the people of this country an in
spring example of self-development.
Born in foreign land, he came here
at the age Of six years with his parents
when a reversal of fortunes caused their
migration. He was not, however, the
poor immigrant" of the type that has
figured often in stories of success in the
land of opportunity" His father was
a man of high position, of education
and of culture, forced to seek a new
start in America. Young Bok's own
career in the new land was not much
different from that of the child of the
penniless alien. He had to leave school
at thirteen and go to work to help the
family. He became messenger. He
was of the successful disposition, not
content with the job in hand, but doing
1t thoroughly. He studied stenography,
He was attracted to newspaper work
as are many American boys-and began
to do shorthand reportorial assignments
for the Brooklyn Eagle. That gave him
his start. He made good as reporter,
and at the age of nineteen organized
and edited a magazine which few
years later he sold profitably and then
he Joined the Scribner publishing house
as an advertising writer. He made good
at that. He organized literary syndi-
cate. His success attracted the atten-

ity places it at from thirty-fve to forty
per extraordinarily higher than this
among elderly persons and lower among
children. The description of the medical
book is rather gruesome-"like typhoid
fever complicated by pneumonia" Few
deaths are believed to have resulted
from the psittacosis alone, but from the
pneumonia for which it seems to serve
as the entering wedge. In this respect
it seems to follow the pattern of in-
fiuenZa. 1t is, in fact, likely to be
confused with this malady. Such was
the case at first in the worst epidemic
of psittacosis yet known, which occurred
in Paris in 1928, following a great
influenza wave. Pet parrots were nu-
merous in the French capital at the
time and when the differentiation was
made 1t was found that nearly all the
cases could be traced to households
having these birds. The same was true
in the later Boston outbreak, all the
victims apparently having petted some
dropping parrots in department store.
There seems little doubt of the cause
in the cases of the Kalmey family at
Annapolis.

ton Of Cyrus w. Curtis, who onereo
him the chief position on the stan OF
the Ladies Home Journal. And he
made good at that job. Indeed, he
made so good there that he established
new records in American periodical
publication.
That is the briefest possible outline
of career that stands out as one OF the
marked examples Of success in America.
Edward Box earned every advancement
and deserved all the rewards that came
from his achievements. He was guided
by a philosophy that divided his life
into three phases, with a definite pur-
pose, early conceived. He held that a
mans career should be devoted first to
preparation, next to achievement and
finally to work in retirement as COM
munity asset. So at comparatively
early age he retired from the activities
Of publication direction, to devote him.
self to beneficial works. He sought for
means of giving advantageously from
the abundant fortune that had come to
him. He aided cultural enterprises,
philanthropic works. philosophical re-
searches. A keen lover of Nature, he
dedicated to the creation of a bird
refuge and a carlton the latter years
of his life, which has been cut lamen-
tably short, in the course of his most
satisfying and valuable contributions to
the welfare and the inspiration of the
people. The singing tower" rising
beautifully from created park, lovely
and significant shaft, will be Edward
Bok's specific memorial. But other
works. started and aided by him for the
public benefit, will remain as enduring
monuments in honor of a man who
made the most and the best of the OBJ
portunities of America.

The Senate District Committee

Especial qualification is felt by the
citizens of the Capital that in the re-
shaping of the committees of the Senate
a way has been found to retain on the
District committee Senator Wesley l..
Jones of Washington, who has long been
one OF its most valuable and appreciated
members and who has now advanced to
the post of chairman Of the committee
on appropriations, vacated by the death
OF Senator Warren. 1t is particularly
gratifying that Senator Jones has con-
sented to continue to serve in this man.
ner the Capital community in whose well
fare he has been greatly interested for
many years. It is not to be expected
that he will be able to devote as much
time as formerly to the questions of local
legislation, now that he is charged with
the responsibilities of appropriations
craftsmanship. But the Capital feels
confident that he will continue to keep
in contact with the work of the Dis
trict committee and that he will thus be
enabled to contribute helpfully to the
advancement of the local interests.
With one exception, the replacement
of Senator Hastings by Senator Baird,
the Republican personnel of the COM
mittee remains intact, save for the
withdrawal of Senator Sackett, who
leaves to become Ambassador to Ger
many and who, it Is expected, will be
replaced by his immediate successor in
the Senate, Mr.. Robson, now member
Of the House Of Representatives, well ac-
quainted with District matters. This
virtually assures the continuation of the
personnel of the committee, as few If
any changes are to be expected on the
Democratic side of the table. This is
reassuring to the local community,
which relies so heavily upon the District
committees of the two houses for I'M
derstanding and sympathy and helpful
cooperation in the functioning Of Con-
gress as the Districts Legislature.
