SERIES OF ADDRESSES
FEATURE MEETINGS
American University Park Group
Goes Over the Top in
Chest Drive.

A series of talks by heads of depart
ments of the District Government Is
the feature Of q special program in
augurated this year by the American
University Park Citizens Association.
Two speakers already have brought
their messages to the association and a
third Is scheduled for the forthcoming
January meeting.
Dram, director of inspection, and Capt.
II. G. Whitehurst, director Of highways:
Nal. Daniel J. Donovan, auditor Of

Thomas E. Lodge, chairman Of the Law
and Legislation Committee, who for
association, this program Of bringing
municipal leaders to address the organ
ization will lead to a better under
standing and more helpful cooperation
In civic affairs.
The American University Park Asso-
citation is proud of its record OF having
covered its entire geographical area for
the Community Chest, by activities OF
its own Executive Committee, going over
the top in its quota by about Is per
cent. This is said to be the only asso-
citation In the city, which takes upon
itself full responsibility for its COM
munitys contribution TO the chest.

Liquor Control Continues
to Occupy Center of Stage.

NNE phase of the liquor control
~ question which Is receiving
special attention in the neigh
borhood associations is how to pro-
vide for some kind of neighborhood
referendum on permitting the sale
of liquor in residential sections.
Anacostia held q local option election
Friday night.
Various forms of petitions and
protests are being suggested, but ap-
parently a solution has not yet been
found. Citizens associations are in
clined to look with disfavor upon the
reported plan of the Commissioners
TO provide only for signatures Of
owners of property, thus completely
residents Of neighborhood. They
hold that the people who actually
reside in a neighborhood are as
vitality interested in whether or not
the sale Of liquor is permitted as are
the property owners.
It is the universal attitude of the
citizens associations that the wishes
Of the neighborhoods as expressed in
whatever form decided upon should
govern. They believe it should be
mandatory upon any control body
to heed their action and not
simply listen to such protests and
then exercise their discretion.

COUNTY CIVIC GROUPS
AID WITH YULE RELIEF
Food, Clothes and Toys to Be Sup
piled Welfare Board for
Distribution. =
By STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

By STAFF Correspondent OF The Star.
CLARENDON, Va, December 16.-
The Arlington County Board of Public
Welfare is to be assisted in its Christ
mas relief work by most Of the civic
organizations in the county.
These are now turning their atten-
tion to the listing of names Of the
needy and the collection of toys and
clothing, as well as in raising money
to purchase foodstuffs for Christmas
baskets.
Before the food and presents are
distributed, the names of the needy
are checked with the Board of Public
Welfare so there will be no duplica-
tions and every family in Arlington
County will be assured plenty Of food
and warm clothing for all and toys for
the children at Christmas.
Joining in this work are the citizens
, associations, parent-teacher aSsocia-
tions, service clubs and churches. The
Boy Scouts will be enlisted to aid in
the distribution of baskets.
One of the organizations which has
done effective work along relief lines
for the past two Winters is the Mon
arch Club, which places receptacles in
stores throughout the county for the
collection of foodstuffs and then dis
tributes it throughout the entire Winter
to families whose names are furnished
by Mrs. Mae E. Jacobs, superintendent
of public welfare.
Many civic organizations accept one
or more needy families for support dur
ing the entire Winter, not only feeding
them, but clothing the children 30
they may go to school.

ALEXANDRIA BODY
ASKSC.W.A.C CENSUS
Citizens Believe Population
Increase Warrants Branch
Bank at Potomac.
BY a STAFF Correspondent Of The star.


ALEXANDRIA, Va, December 16.-
As a civil works project for unemployed
women Of this city, the Alexandria Cit
izens' Association, Ward 6, has asked
local authorities to include the taking
of a population census for Alexandria
in the local Civil Works Administration
program.
The suggestion was made by the Ex-
ecutive Committee after local civil
works officials had asked TO have
projects suitable for the employment OF
women submitted to them, according to
Mrs. Naomi P. Craver, president Of the
citizens body.
By means Of the census the local Ctt-
izens' Association hopes to show that
the population Of Alexandria now has
reached $4,000 in order that plans OF
the association to have an Alexandria
bank establish q branch bank In Po-
tomac may be carried forward.
According to Mrs. Craver, banks in
Virginia with populations under 25,ooo
are not permitted to establish branch
Offices The last census Of Alexandria
gave this city a population Of 24.149.
T. c. Williams. superintendent OF
Alexandria public schools, Is to address
the association ut its final meeting OF
the year, December 20. The annual
election of officers viii be held at this
meeting.
The Executive Committee Of the as
sociation at a meeting this week passed
resolution asking City Council to en-
keeping of cows IN the city, and de-
Cided to start Q campaign To have tht
local weed-control law enforced.

D0UbLE-TRACK LINE.
TO TAKOMA SOUGHT
Brightwood Unit Also Urges
Removal of Trolley Poles
in Street.

Complete double tracking Of the Cap
ita1 Transit Co.'S line from Fourteenth
street and Colorado avenue to Takoma
Park Is being urged strongly by citizens
of Brightwood and Takona Park
Various sections OF the road already
have been double-tracked, and during
the past few months considerable paw
ing Of the roadway between the tracks
and the curb line has been done, par
ticularly on Third street northward
from Kennedy to Aspen street. The
work Of widening Third street the en-
tire distance to Aspen street has been
practically completed, thus enabling the
company TO lay an additional track.
With the exception OF short distance,
the road Is provided with double tracks
on Third street between Kennedy street
and Aspen street, where 1t becomes a
single track the remainder Of the dis
tance to the terminus at Laurel and
Carroll avenues, in Takoma Park.
Delays During Rush Hours.
The constant delays during the rush
hour periods on the line between Colo
rado avenue and the terminus in Ia
konla Park necessitated by the cars
running on "sidings" has caused con-
siderable complaint. A few days ago a
Takoma Park organization discussed the
situation, and a committee is to be ap-
pointed to confer with the new railway
officials this week to try to get the re-
mainder of the line double-tracked.
The line Is Single-track eastward
from Colorado avenue and Fourteenth
street, with several .-sidings'' between
this point and Third and Kennedy
streets. The only remaining siding"
on Third street is just south Of Aspen
street. where the line turns beneath
the tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad and continues a short dis
tance to its terminus at the District
line.
Seek Removal of Poles.
For many years past the Brightwood
Citizens Association has been appeal
ing to the authorities for the removal
of the center trolley poles on Kennedy
street east OF Georgia avenue. The
poles have been removed on Kennedy
street between Georgia avenue and Col
orado avenue and Fourteenth street, but
with the single track still retained. The
Brightwood citizens feel that the re-
moval of the trolley poles on Kennedy
street and the double-tracking of that
section east of Georgia avenue will re-
suit in the improvement Of that thor
oughfare and reduce traffic hazards. It
is claimed by citizens that it is danger
Gus to park automobiles, owing to the
narrowness Of the street, and particu-
larly where the "sidingS" are located.
The association has requested police
in the vicinity Of these "sidings" on
this street. President Charles w. Ray
and other officers Of the Brightwood
association are urging these improve
ments.

Girls Clubs in Schools
And Community Centers.

TINE Dupont Circle Citizens AS
sociation is petitioning the
Board of Education to open
the public school buildings for girls
clubs similar to the boys clubs
sponsored by the Police Department.
This movement was started by
Mrs. Richard Wainwright and Mrs.
Archibald Hopkins of that associ-
alton. Such activities naturally
come under the Community Center
Department of the schools
The Burleith Citizens Association
Is earnestly striving for commu-
nifty center in the Georgetown area.
In this it is actively supported by
the Georgetown Citizens Association,
the Progressive Citizens Association
of GEORGETOWN. the Glover Park Cit
izens' Association and others.
Mrs. Elizabeth K. Peoples, director
of the Community Center Depart
ment, is most sympathetic with these
projects. She explains that it Is the
desire of the department to give the
people the fullest possible use Of the
splendid and expensive school plant.
There is, however, one very vital
limitation to extending such uses
and that is the lack of the funds re-
quired for directing ard janitor serv-
ice. The question resolves itself Into
finding the money to carry on these
important community activities which
are available at present to only a
limited portion of the community.
In the past, community center work
has frequently been supported by
private funds until there could be
public funds provided.

Organizations Strive
For Larger Memberships.

MEMBERSHIP drives contipue
N in a number of the civic
bodies. The Board Of Trade
has Just celebrated with q Victory
dinner" eight successful weeks OF
successful work. During this period
228 new members were added to the
roll, and with 56 previously admitted
during the year gives healthy In
crease.
The Mount Pleasant Citizens As
sociation is out to materially increase
its membership. The association
holds that because Of the peculiar
and unrepresentative character Of
our form of government the neigh
borhood association is the only chan
mel for expression of neighborhood
opinion. To be truly representative
they believe the ranks must be re-
cruited to the utmost.
The Foxhall Village Citizens As
sociation is another body to go after
the new members. This association
is enrolling households rather than
individuals, and will give all mem
bers of a household voice in the
affairs Of the association and this
at the wholesale rate Of 81 per house
hold
In connection with these drives for
members there Is recalled those lines
of Kipling:
''It amt the guns or ammunition
or the funds that they can pay,
But close cooperation which makes
them win the day.
It amt the individual or the army as
a whole,
But the eVerlaStin' team work Of
every bloornin' soul"
