Complete Rerouting Plans
Due in Another Week.

u EROUTING plans of the Pub
IN lie Utilities Commission ex-
perts are promised to be
made public in a summary on
August and with the full de-
tailed report on the 10th. We'd
nesday, August Is, the commission
will hold its first hearing on the
rerouting for the purpose of
getting the plan into the record
and hearing explanations by the
experts and such testimony as
may be offered by representatives
of the Capital Transit Co. The
hearing will then be adjourned
until Monday. September 10, when,
full opportunity is to be afforded
to civic organizations and the un-
organized citizens to offer their
objections, criticisms and sug-
gestionS.
Members Of the commission say
that this plan has been adopted
to permit the public to study the
plans and be ready to present any
views which they may wish to
offer. 1t is intended that the
fullest opportunity be given the
public at these hearings, and that
a rather wide latitude will be per-
mitted for the expression of
individual views instead of con-
f1ning these professional wit
neSseS to the mere answering of
questions prepared by the experts.
Suggestions of value are expected
from car and bus riders who
know what they know from many
years Of actual riding experience.
The commission is hopeful that
the hearings may be speeded up
by having citizens who wish to be
heard study the rerouting plans
before giving their testimony.
Those specially interested in
transportation problems in the
civic bodies believe that while
some of the plans worked out by
the experts might not seem to
meet their ideas as to public
accommodation, they should, as a
general rule, be given a try-out
and then modified if found to be
lacking. 1t is felt that it would
be a comparatively simple matter
to modify these plans later.
While Peoples Counsel Roberts
would have liked more time to
elapSe between the release of the
plans and the time of the first
hearing, he expects to do what
he can to expedite the hearing
and the completion and actual
putting into operation of the re-
routing. This is benefit of the
merger OF the transportation sys-
TEN Of the District for which the
people have long been waiting.
Mr.. Roberts will be aided in ex-
pediting this matter if citizens
will send him wen in advance of
the September hearings sugges-
tions and criticism of the plans.
If the peoples counsel truly is to
help the people, he must have the
help of the people, and the only
way in which he may be apprised
of their wishes is through the
sending in of their constructive
suggestions.
The members of the commission
express an earnest desire to see
some real teamwork between the
commission, the transit company,
civic bodies and individual citizens,
SO that the riding public may
enjoy the benefits Of the new
system at an early date.

Decreasing Federal Contribution.
Increasing Federal Control.

DISTRICT AUDITOR DONO-
IL VAN tells us that the Dis
trict of Columbia appropri-
ton act for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1884, places the cost Of
operating the District government,
including capital expenditures, ex-
penditures from the water and gas
taxes and some so called indefinite
appropriations, amounts to S39,-
825,253. OF this amount, the Fed
eral Government pays only $4,539,-
295, while the District local reve-
nues pay the remaining $35, 1885,
958. This means that toward the
cost Of running the National Capt.
tai the Nation pays IL per cent and
the local taxpayers 80 per cent.
The legal division of costs between
the Nation and the Capital COM
munity, as provided in unrepealed
substantive law, is 40 per cent by
the Nation and go per cent by the
local revenues.
During this extended period Of
rapidly reducing national contri-
button, there has been a growing
tendency to increase the Federal
control over the District. The die
tation of local appointments by
members Of Congress and public
officials has been materially In
creased and the general tendency
seems to be to ignore the wishes OF
the community as completely as If
the District was merely Federal
bureau.
The control OF the District bud
get by the Bureau of the Budget is
looked upon by most civic organi-
cations and individual citizens as
being contrary to the best interests
of the District. There are other in
stances Of expanding national con-
troll.

Board of Trade
Civic Program Completed.


THERE is new significance in
the completed civic pro-
gram Of the Washington
Board of Trade, for it is what
might be called the consolidated
program of the Chamber Of Com
merce and the Board of Trade.
The adoption of this program and
the distribution of committee as
signments marks the final step in
the completion Of the merger of
these two trade bodies. The ac-
complishment during the heated
term of these steps of prepared
ness for the Fall and Winter civic
campaign puts all Of the boards
81 committees In the position Of
being all set and ready to go.
The Spring election and Summer
reorganization in the Board of
Trade gives that body a decided
advantage over the Federation of
Citizens Associations. which will
hold its election In November and
them form its various committees.
The Board Of Trade program rs

conference OF the officers and

their information and discussion.
Occupying a conspicuous place in
the program Is the work for na-
tional representation for the Dis
trict of Columbia. At this con-
ference 1t was the sense Of those
present that the fight for repre-
sentation should be carried for.
ward with unceaSing vigor.
Through representation of the
District in Congress and the right
to vote for the President and Vice
President. there is seen the Solu-
ton Of many Of the local problems.
It is the intention of the Board
Of Trade to go before the Com
missioners with its program.
with view to working out prac-
teal plan for cooperation before
Congress and public officials for
putting into effect all of the legis-
lative features.
In some quarters It has been
suggested that the Federation OF
Citizens Associations confer and
travel along together as far as
1t is able to agree on some Of
the civic needs Of the District.
With the two trade bodies con-
solidated and with the Federation
of Citizens Associations cooper
ating as far as agreement may be
possible, the Districts chance Of
needed legislation and appropria-
ton should be greatly enhanced.
There seems to be growing en-
thusiasm among civic workers and
District officials for more team
work and a feeling that in our
voteless helplessness all should
hang together.

Much curiosity has been aroused
by reports OF the sensational dance

Of the Continental" is now available

In the new show THE Continental"

The Continental" begins with q

Say 'Peck's Bad Boy
Is American Classic

The Fox Film presentation Of
"Peck's Bad Boy" which will be seen
at the Paramount Theatre, beginning
today, was acclaimed by Hollywood
critics at its preWew showings as .
new American classic" and n vital
human document for every man and
woman"
That brilliant and appealing young
player, Jackie Cooper, is the star Of
this human film story. Jackie Is seen
as q fine tWo-fisted boy who is nearly
crowded out Of his fathers life and
affections through the plotting Of an
unprincipled aunt and her no less un-
principled son. To Judge from adj
vance reports, no story Of boyhood
has brought to the screen q profoun-
der understanding or . more touch
ing situation.
Adults will find particular appeal
IN "Peck,s Bad Boy" it is believed.
Every mother will see in young Blu
Peck her own son. Every father Will
see himself.
In addition to Jackie Cooper, 4
number OF notable players have been
assembled for the picture. Thomas
Meighan returns to the screen from
2 two years retirement to play
Jackie's father. Young Jackie Scarf
has an important role as Bill Pecks
own especial demon. As his schem-
ing mother, Dorothy Peterson contri-
