port Utilities Commission En-
gineer's Program.

Peoples Counsel William A. Roberts
will suggest abandonment of the
Cabin John street car line and its
replacement by bus line using Con-
duit road and a portion of the car
line right-o -of-way, in his brief on the
street car rerouting case under prep
aration today.
Roberts also will support the re-
arrangement of car tracks Nm the
downtown section suggested by Fred
A. Sager, chief engineer OF the Public
Utilities Commission, in Sager's final
rerouting plan.
Proposes Bus Route.
Roberts brief will claim it is not
economical to maintain the Cabin
John tracks to support a service of
only one street car per half hour
His proposed bus line would enter
the District on Conduit road and
proceed to the downtown section over
the following route:
Along Conduit road to Forty fourth
street. north on Forty-fourth street,
cast on Reservoir road, south on
Thirty-fifth street, east on N street,
north on Twenty-eighth street. east
on P street over the new P Street
Bridge, south on TWenty-second street
to Virginia avenue, southeast along
Virginia avenue to Constitution ave-
nue., east on Constitution avenue to
loop around Twelfth street, Penn
sylvania avenue and Ninth street.
Would Run on Thirty-Sixth Street.
The majority of the weStbound
buses would run only to Thirty-sixth
street, smaller number to the Dis
trict line and a still smaller number
to Cabin John
The Sager plan approved by Rob-
erts provides for building new tracks
in F street between Fourteenth and
Fifteenth streets to connect with
tracks already in Fifteenth street
The intersection of Fourteenth and
G streets would be changed so cars
westbound on G street could make
either a right or left turn into Four
teenth street and cars north or south
bound bound on Fourteenth street
could turn east into G street. The
stub end track in G. street, running
from Fourteenth street almost to the
Treasury, would be taken out.

organized three years ago. Its activity
was made a basis for the character
education experiment when that was
begun this Fall. Last year S30064
was raised with teachers contributing
$l06.75 and students giving Sl93.89.
The relation of the work to char
acter education which was started
three years ago by Miss Jesse Coope,
assistant principal, was explained by
Miss BERTHE Backus, assistant superin-
tendent of schools.
"All students who take part in this
program of emergency relief are learn
ing the meaning of social response
bility," she said There are economic
problems which arise in the school
just as in the community outside the
school. BY facing these emergencies
and working out intelligent and ef
fective solutions within their own
small school community pupils are
having first hand experience in meet
ing some of the current economic
and civic problems The students
who receive aid by having an oppor-
tunity TO earn money at school are
benefited. Those who plan and car
ry on this activity are learning what
it means to be member of a group,
sharing the opportunities and obliga-
tions which are involved in citizen
ship"
Relief at Other Schools.
Similar relief activities are being
carried on at Cardozo night school,
where recently a group of students,
led by Mrs Mildred Coleman. ap-
preached Mrs. j. M. Tate. principal,
and told her a number of students
were unable to buy books.
They arranged to buy books whole
sale. Some time later the same group
held a social and raised $40, which
they made the beginning of fund to
buy books and lend to students who
could not afford them even at whole
sale prices. At present Cardozo has
25 books in its lending library. 1t is
still growing.

Although the Board of Indetermi-
nate Sentence and Parole has justified
its existence, its administration lis SO
superficial as to be a joke to those
sincerely interested in its application. &"
Such is the opinion of William A..
Roberts, peoples counsel, who, in ac-
cepting appointment on the newly
created committee, of 40 of the Dis
trict Bar Association which is to in
vestigate the administration of justice
in the Nations Capital, urged careful
examination of the administration of
the probation and parole laws to de-
termine whether adequate forces and
supervision will aid in alleviating
criminal troubles.
Sees Danger in Mob Psychology.
To F. Regis Noel president of the
Bar Association Roberts said:
AT time like that when you have
awakened great popular interest there
is a danger of the development of mob
psychology which, although on
higher intellectual plane. is just as
vicious as that which induces lynch
ing and jail deliveries in some less
civilized communities.
Il refer particularly to the sugges-
ton that the parole, probation and
indeterminate sentence laws are re-
sponsible for a supposed increase in
criminal activity and that these laws
should be repealed.
"A simple statement of facts that
might be interesting as supporting
view which l have often talked over
with you, that modern society cannot
afford to place any more people in
State-supported institutions. For ex-
ample, the report of the Committee on
Reorganization of the District of Co.
lumbia contains a statement. volume
4. page 5. of the organization of the
District Jail, and similar statement
as to workhouse and reformatory and
other penal and reform institutions.
Cites Deficiencies in Personnel.
in each of these statements ref
erence is made to the parole system
and to the present deficiencies in
physician accommodations and per-
sonnel of both the reform and the
penal organizations. Examine the
situation at the workhouse and re-
formatory (Lorton). AT this lnstltu-
ton there were a total of l03 paid
employees as of the date Of the report,
an additional 81 operated the work
house, and there were 10 paid en-
ployeS in the custodial personnel OF
the Women'S department. a total OF
272 permanent annual employees and
four temporary employees.
For the year ended June 30. 1893,
the reformatory averaged l,044 in
mates. as against 853 for the preced-
ing year. while the workhouse aver
aged 730 in the mems department and
56 in the women's department, as
against 669 and ST, respectively, in
the preceding year. Between 1921
and 1888, the actual expenditures for
maintaining the workhouse and re-
fOrmatory increased from S524,l46 to
S977,039 for the fiscal year ended
June 80. 1888. This does not include
the construction appropriations. In
a corresponding period the cost of
maintenance of the District Jail in
creased from S80928 to Sl44,642. At
the latter institution at the present
time there are an average of over 500
prisoners, or an average of 62 prison.

Sometimes They Can Hardly
Stifls Their Laughter
During Broadcasts

Chicago. May 12.-Writing your
own radio material, day by day as
you need 1t, and building the pro-
gram entirely around commonplace
events, has unusual advantages, &C
cording to Clara, LII n EN-, who
broadcast five mornings q week over
an NBC-WEAF network including
KTYR Of Bismarck.
One day recently, for instance,
Louise Starkey (Clara) woke up to
find herself with a troublesome wis.,
dom tooth. She struggled through
the mornings program and then
dashed away to the dentist. The
treatment left her in such q condition
that she could not speak easily or
distinctly. What to do? How 70 get
through next days broadcast?
Miss StArkey went on to the home
Of Helen King (Em) where she was
to meet the other members Of the trio
and work with them on the next
days script. Once the girls put their
nimble brains together, the solution
came very quickly.
A Wise Toothache
The girls wrote skit about Clara
having an aching wisdom tooth. Ma
turally, Clara couldn't speak distinct
~ because Of 1t. And naturally the
other girls were very sympathetic and.
what's more important, did most Of
the talking. The wisdom tooth Incl
dent was carried over for two broad
casts until Miss Starkey had recov-
cred.
On another occasion the girls
found themselves before q "live"
with their prepared
