The charitable work OF the Wash

seas Service League during the past
year was adjudged the most outstsnd-
ing in the country at the national
convention Of the organization helo
last week in Detroit.
This was learned here today when
Mrs. J. Nathaniel Steed, local serv-
ice chairman, who was known as
Mother Steed" to the soldiers in
France. returned 20 Washington and
announced to fellow workers that they
had received first honors for the sec
ond successive year.
During the World War Mrs. Steed
conducted a Red Cross canteen in the
branch hospital established at Dion
by the Harper Hospital Of Detroit.
The committee which worked with
her here included Miss Faustine Dem
mis-. national president Of the league
Miss Katherine Andrews. president oil
the local unit. Mrs Larz Anderson,
Mrs. Wallace Chiswell, Miss Sadie
Caughey. Miss Irene Claveoux. Miss

The first suggestion has been Of
fered before and met with resentment
from the residents of the District,
who claim that the 2-cent tax they
are now paying is sufficient for the
road and street work.
Holds Problem Is States.
"The entire solution of the problem
lies in Virginia itself" Chairman
Kelley asserted today. IF the tax
is so high as to make it impossible
for the Northern Virginia gasoline
dealers TO meet the competition Of
fered by the District. then they
should appeal to our own legislature
for relief and not attempt to have an
additional burden placed on our Cap
ital neighbors.
1t would be Just as logical for the
District to attempt to force Arlington
County TO impose higher real estate
tax in order to equalize the competi-
tion in the sale of property in the
two Jurisdictions, he declared.
Another Brand Considered.
If the large oil companies persist
in their refusal to absorb more than
: ne-and-a-hah of the three-cent tax
difference, it was asserted today by
F. Z. Dove, president of the Northern
Virginia Gasoline Dealers Association,
members may discontinue the sale of
the products Of these companies and

FREE VACCINE

Members Of the executive board
of the Prince Georges County
Parent Teacher Association, COM
posed of number of local school
organizations throughout the
county, last night decided to
seek return of free vaccinations by
the Maryland State Department
Of Health.
Free vaccinations and innocula-
tons were stopped by the county
health department four months
ago after a strong protest by the
county's medical association to
the State Department Of Health.
Private physicians declared the
health department was giving
free vaccinations Unfortunately,
depriving them of legitimate
business.
The parent-teacher executive
board, however, holds that the
move takes medical protection
away from the needy.
