CITIZENS REVIEW
PROGRESS IN 1894
Accomplishments of Conduit
Road Body Cited in Let
ter to Members.

The Conduit Road Citizens Asso-
citation obtained a large number OF
Improvements in the section in 1884.
A summary Of these accomplishments
Is contained in a letter sent last week
to residents, urging membership in
the association.
Heading this list of improvements
is the paving of Conduit road, which,
the letter points out, was completed
with no expense to residents for
either the roads paving or the curbs
and sidewalks.
Several streets and alleys were ex-
tended or opened during the year.
These include Sherrier place, ex-
tended to Chain Bridge road; Cush-
ing street, opened from Sherrier place
to Conduit road; Newark street, Po-
tomac avenue to Conduit road;
Weaver street, from Carolina place
to Potomac street; alleys opened be-
tween Weaver and Galena streets,
Newark and Norton streets, and Sher-
rier place and Chain Bridge road.
Two other alleys were paved.
Listed among the general improve
ments are the grading and planting
in the Francis Scott Key School
grounds and the progress in the de-
velopment of Palisades Park, which
has been surveyed and is now ready
for construction of field house,
Fairgrounds and recreational equip
ment. This work will be undertaken
shortly by members Of the Civilian
Conservation Corps, under the direc-
ton of the National Park Service of
the Park and Planning Commission.

SEEK JOINT ACTION

Petworth Group Invites Other As
sociations to General Meet.
ing Tuesday.

In a movement to obtain express
street car service for North Wash
ington, the Petworth Citizens ASso-
citation recently sent out invitations
to all civic groups in the area to at
tend an executive meeting on trans
portation Tuesday night.
The Transportation Committee OF
the Petworth body has recommended
that it favors connection from
Georgia avenue and Upshur street to
the Eleventh street car line, the lat
ter to be used for express purposes.
The following associations have
been invited to take part by Raymond
E. Gable. secretary: Takoma Park,
Sixteenth Street Highlands, Sixteenth
Street Heights, Piney Branch, Park
View, Manor Park, Columbia Heights,
Citizens Forum Of Columbia Heights,
Citizens Association of Takoma, D.
c.; Chillum Heights and Brightwood. |.
Any other groups which are inter-
ested are invited to send representa-
tives, Gable said.
A preliminary meeting will be held
Tuesday night at the home Of Lyster
H. Dewey. president of the Petworth
group, at 4512 Ninth street at 1880
o'clock.
This preliminary meeting will be
followed by appropriate action at the
next meeting Of the Petworth asso-
citation, on February 10, at which the
associations are urged to send dele
gates also, Gable declared, in the
hope that concurrent action on this
matter may be taken.

What District Projects
Under Work Relief Act?

A LII civic bodies are much inter-
~ ested in the question as to
what projects are to be in
cluded in the new work relief leg
islation. Commissioner Sultan has
called on the heads Of the District
departments to list items TO De
studied by the District Work
Planning Committee, which was
established about two years ago.
Details are lacking as to what Will
be the Districts part in the Federal
program, but Col. Sultan suggested
study of sewer projects, new build
ings such as the Municipal Center,
new District Jail, new schools and
buildings for the various District
institutions and other projects OF
lower cost.
1t would appear that the various
civic bodies can be of practical
help by coming forward promptly
with definite suggestions as to mucn
needed projects which might prop
erly be included in such program.
Many of these projects, in which
the citizens are particularly inter-
ested. are Of such a national char
acter as to warrant outright Fed
eral grants.
There doubtless will be serious
objections raised to the creation OF
additional indebtedness through
Federal advances upon which inter-
est will have to be paid unless 1t be
for needed capital expenditures for
which there is a decided local de-
mand.
Now is the time for suggestions
by the organizations If their views
are to be incorporated in the list
of approved projects.

HILLCREST OBTAINS
BETTER BUS SERVICE
Capital Transit Co. Grants 20.
Minute Schedule Asked for by
Citizens Group.

Efforts of the Hillcrest Citizens
Association to secure better bus serv-
ice in their neighborhood have met
with the approval of the Capital Tran
sit Co., according to report by Ru-
dolph Malth, president of the associa-
ton.
Edward S. Pardoe, superintendent
Of bus transportation for the transit
company, announced that the asso-
cations request for 20-minute bus
schedule during the rush hours had
been granted, with the new schedule
taking effect last Friday.
The new schedule during week days
would have busses running from Sew
enteenth street and Pennsylvania av-
enue southeast to Hillcrest on the
20-minute schedule from $50 am.
to $50 am. and from $40 pm. to
$50 pm. On Saturdays the schedule
would be in the afternoon from 1880
O'Clock to 2:50.

BUS LINE AND SCHOOL
SOUGHT BY CITIZENS
East Washington Heights Asso-
citation Says Children Must Go
Q Miles to Attend Glasses.

Two projects sought by the East
Washington Heights Citizens Asso-
ciation are installation Of either q
new bus service or extension Of the
present Hillcrest bus line to the Dis
trict Line and erection Of q school
In the neighborhood.
The members contend a new bus
service should be provided for the
residents of the community by the
Capital Transit Co. or else the Hill
crest bus should extend to the line
thereby serving a community that is
at present dependent on bus service
that is very unsatisfactory.
Not only would the busses serve
the residents, but would also relieve
the problem of transportation Of the
children to school. At present the
children must go at least two miles to
the nearest school. In the event that
they miss their bus, parents must
take them In their own cars. This
fact ties in with the school problem
in that q new school in the neigh
borhood would eliminate the prob
lem Of transportation.

tor vehicles. Approval was voted

sioners to sell part of the site

ter and use the proceeds for the

come tax for the District, repeal
of the 60-40 substantive law, es-
tablishment of a District garage
corporation and the abolition of
the present Police and Firemens

M. and M. Is Years Old.

When James E. Collihower was re-
elected president of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association last week
he retraced the associations history
during the quarter Of a century 1t has
been in existence and claimed for it
many innovations that have since be-
come widely accepted. The sssocia-
ton is now in its twenty-flfth year.
The M. and M. Association was first
to organize along the trade section
plan, grouping its members according
to their lines Of business. Since then
the same system has been adopted by
similar organizations throughout the
country.
The association was q sponsor of
the bad check, fake auction and false
! advertising laws and initiated the
Credit and Collection Bureau, which
has since grown into the Associated
Retail Credit Men, and the Adver-
tising Vigilance Committee, which
eventually became the Better Busi-
ness Bureau.
The Community Chest plan vas
originally initiated in Washington by
the association, Collihower said.
THE association has rendered
long and distinguished service to the
business interests Of Washington" he
declared, "but at no time in its his
tory has been rendered greater aid
than during the past year and . half
since the N. r. A. has been estab-
lished. Because Of its trade-section
plan Of organization, It was the logical
organization TO which .ts members
turned when information was desired
in regard to codes and N. II. A. re-
quirements. It has, therefore. acted
as q clearing house on the various
codes Of fair practice affecting its
members and has been administering
several of these local code authors
ties"

CITIZENS STUDYING
PARKING PROPOSAL
Southwest Group Considers Plan
TO Turn Sites of Alley Dwell
ings Into Lots for Autos.

Conversion Of alley dwellings in
the Southwest area into parking lots
Is being considered by the South
west Citizens Association to prevent
Federal employees working at buildings
on Constitution avenue from taking
parking spaces needed In the residen-
tiaf section. Many Federal employees
use these streets all day to avoid being
"ticketed" for overtime parking in
more restricted zones, the citizens
claim.
II the large parking lot in the rear
Of the District Building was elmi-
mated, conditions would become so
bad the merchants In the Southwest
would begin to wonder where their
customers might park, 1t was said.
John Ihlder. executive ofiicer Of the
Alley Dwelling Authority. introduced
ut the associations last meeting plan
whereby many present alley dwellings
could be converted into money making
parking lots and at the same time
afford the residents ample parking
space for their own cars.
