D. c. CAR HOMICIDE
MEASURE SIGNED
intermediate Charge Now
Available in Traffic
Accidents.

President Roosevelt today signed
the so-called negligent homicide"
bill for the District of Columbia.
which was recently passed by Con-
gresS at the request Of the District
Commissioners.
BY this bill becoming law it will
be possible now to provide an in
termediate charge in traffic acci-
dents, between reckless driving and
manslaughter. This intermediate
charge was sought by the Commis-
sioners because of the difficulty Of
obtaining convictions on the man
slaughter charge in view of the heavy
penalty the latter carried. Convic-
tions under the negligent homicide"
law carry only a sentence of one
year or q fine of $1,000 upon con-
viction.
The President today also signed
Senate bill 410, which permits the
recorder of deeds Office Of the Dis
trict of Columbia to increase the
fees for recording deeds. The rate
of increase has been fixed with a
view to making this office self-sus-
tanning instead of running at loss,
as has been the case in the past.
At the same time the President
signed a joint resolution permitting
the temporary entry into the United
States, under certain conditions, OF
boys from foreign countries who are
coming to the United States to par
ticipate in the National Boy Scout
Jamboree to be held in this city
shortly. The resolution also permits
alien Boy, Scout officials the same
privilege.

BALTIMORE FIRM
GETS LIBRARY Job
$685. 400 Contract for
Annex Awarded to Low
Bidder.

A $6,269, 400 contract to builo the

awarded TO the Consolidated Engineer
ing Co., Inc, of Baltimore, tne low

ond to Third streets and from B

ment of italian Renaissance. II will
be fireproof, with five floors above
the cellar, the Top floor beng set
back. The structurs will cover an
area of 40e feet north and south.
and 228 feet east and west.
The foundation work was started
some time ago. The need for COM
pleting the annex TO relieve crowded
conditions in the original library build
ing was emphasized by the House Ap-
preparations Committee in n recent
report on the legislative appropria-
ton bill. The Congressional Library
is now the largest n the world in
point of material, consisting of nearly
100000 printed books and pamphlets
and approximately 100000 maps
and other collections. Temporary ac-
commodations, the report said. have
peen resorted to, such as triple shelv-
ing of books, until more space can
be provided. Congress recently passed
a bill to authorize a revision cf the
plans so the annex could be built OF
marble.

2PRESENT POOLS
USE TO CONTINUE
Construction of New Ones
Not to Be Completed
This Summer.

The municipal swimming pools on
the Washington Monument grounds,
near Seventeenth street and Constitu-
ton avenue, will remain open this
Summer, c. Marshall Finnan, super
intendent of the National Capital
Parks, today announced, as it will not
be possible to have the two new pools,
to be constructed out of the $1,000
600 p. w. A. park improvement fund,
ready for use this season.
Under John L. Nagle, head of engi-
neering for the National Park Service
In the Eastern section Of the country,
plans and specifications are being pre-
pared for the two new pools. One is
to be located in the vicinity Of the
Hoover Playground, Second and N
streets southwest, while the other will
serve the Georgetown area, Finnan
said. The exact locations for these
pools were not revealed. They are
designed to replace the pools on the
Washington Monument grounds.
Several problems remain to be
ironed out In conjunction with the
new pools, such as just who win oper-
ate them and whether they will be
pay pools. At present the Play
ground Departments pools on the
Washington Monument grounds are
free, there being no charge whatSo-
ever, officials explained. The money
fer their operation comes out of the
Playground Departments budget, they
said,
Four swimming pools, located at
the Takoma Recreation Center, Fourth
and Van Buren streets. at the Ban
neker Recreation Center, opposite
Howard University; the Mckinley
swimming pools, at First street and
Lincoln road northeast, and the Fran
els swimming pools, at Twenty-ffth
and N streets, are now open. The
Banneker and Francis pools are for
colored residents. Congress does not
appropriate money for the operation
Of any Of these four pools, the SWIM
nlers making up the fund by the pay
ment of fees.

Indicating that the union intends

John K. BirdseI, secretary, announced
that the time and place for an exami-

points to DR. Kindler's demands dur
ing the past "a hours. The union
agreed to the importation of an as
sistant concert master and a f1utist.
Despite the announcement by Cappel
this morning that IAN important
statement win be forthcoming during

o'clock of the Administrative Commit
tee of the orchestra, he said shortly
after noon that the committee had
been unable to clarity the situation
greatly and that little progress had
been made toward assuring the con-
cents this Summer, which are due to
start June 90.
The whole question now, according
to Cappel IL that the union insists
that Splitter Is competent to fili the
position, and the orchestra mAhage-
ment and DR.. Kinder take the posi-
ton that Splitter has been given his
opportunity and found wanting and
demand the importa atton OF an oboeist.

CHEVY CHASE BUS
LINE ACROSS CITY
URGED BY EXPERTS
Only Local Service From
Circle Would Be Affected
by Plan.
FAVORABLE ACTION
FORECAST BY KEECH
Public Utilities Commission OFF,
cial Sees Three Advantages
in Proposal.

Extension of the proposed bus
service to replace street cars on upper
Connecticut avenue, to run from
Chevy Chase Circle to Anacostia, Con-
gress Heights and Washington High
lands. in the southeastern section OF
the city was suggested to the Public
Utilities Commission today by Capital
Transit Co. and District experts.
The commission already has ordered
abandonment of the street car service
into the AnacoStia section and sub
stitution of buses. The proposed
hook-up with the Chevy Chase line
would permit passenger to ride from
the District line in Chevy Chase to
the District line in the Southeast
without transferring.
Express Line Not Affected.
This extension was proposed only
for the local service. For the express
service the experts advocated route
ending at Eighth and Pennsylvania
avenue which would differ in several
minor details originally suggested by
the transit company.
The recommendations today were
the result of conferences by F. A.
Sager, commission engineer; Tratnc
Director william A. Van Duzer, J. H.
Stephens, vice president of the Capt.
tai Transit Co., in charge of opera
tions, and w. B. Bennett, assistant
to the president of the transit COM
pany.
The route proposed from Chevy
Chase Circle into downtown Washing
ton was along Connecticut avenue to
Eighteenth street, south to I, east to
Thirteenth, south to E, east to Eighth
and south to Pennsylvania avenue.
The express busseS wolld return by
way of Pennsylvania avenue, Thir-
teenth street, H street, Seventeenth
street, K street, thence west to Con-
necticut avenue and straight to
Chevy Chase Circle. s.
Favorable Action Expected.
Local buses would follow the same
route downtown except that they
would continue along E street to Sixth
street, thence south to C street south
west, east to Canal, along Canal to
E street southeast, east to Fourth,
south to Virginia avenue, east to K,
east to Eleventh, south across the
Anacostia Bridge and along Nichols
avenue to Congress Heights and
Washington Highlands.
That the routes suggested today may
meet with favorable consideration
when the commission holds its next
session, Thursday afternoon, was indi-
Gated by Richmond B. Keech, COM
mission vice president.
He pointed out the new plan pre-
sents three advantages. 1t would
eliminate the necessity for terminal
in the congested area, serve the busy
Seventh street shopping district, which
had been urged by merchants of that
vicinity, and, lastly, provide through
service from the Northwest to the
Southeast sections of the city.
