ing the facts of communism in the

a constitutional right. Furthermore,

Explains City's
Lack of ] Street
And X, Y and Z Lost
Out as UnknOiur,
Quantities.

IF YOU ever have wondered why
two-thirteenthS OF the alphabet
we're left over when the National
Il Capitals founding fathers named
its original streets, your position is not
much different than that of those
currently in charge Of the municipal
itys official records.
They show, indeed, that the letters
], X, Y and z, 4 Of the rs, have no
place on the map. but the mists Of
time obscure the precise reason there
for.
So far as records 60 in the ONCE of
Edward A. Dean, surveyor Of the Dis
trict, there never was street named
Though there is one called Jay"
after the first Chief Justice Of the Su-
preme Court, John Jay.
In the old days Of Spencerian pen
manship, the so-called copper plate
method Of handwriting, the letter ]
and the letter I were written very
much alike. so that it was dificult to
tell one from the other. That is the
reason advanced by the old-timers
for keeping the letter J out Of the
street alphabet. Even the letter IT"
has come to be written, on envelopes,
as a spelled-out word-Eye.
AS for X. and z, they never did
figure in Washington's street array.
Various reasons are advanced. Some
say that these three letters were iden-
tined too closely with Mathematics
especially the unknown quantities In
the algebraic formulas. From the Of
flee Of F. B. Couch, superintendent of
streets. comes the information that r
street was about the last thoroughfare
considered in the original typography,
since all the territory beyond that was
wilderness.
Whatever brought about the elimi-
nation Of x, Y and z from street de-
signs. the fact remains that even in
the second, third and fourth alphabets
only two Of this trio gets recognition
2 in zenia and Y in Yuma street, q
tvo-syllable word notwithstanding.

WAYS TO BLOCK
NARCOTICS SEEN
Wired Portfolios and New
Dock Designs Talked by
U. S. Treasury.
BY the Associated Press.


A twofold scheme to close doors
often used by narcotics smugglers is
under consideration at the Treasury.
Stephen B. Gibbons, Assistant Sec
retary in charge of customs, is sound
ing out steamship companies about
wiring up the portfolios Of transoceanic
vessels. His idea Is to close the port
holes to smugglers, who toss out
buoyant packages of narcotics which
are picked up by confederates. Most
present-day smuggling in Gibbons
opinion, follows this route.
Another step under consideration Is
a drive to have landing docks con-
structed so that no merchandise could
be transferred from ship to them
except at points where a lookout can
be maintained.
Gibbons has suggested to James H.
Moyle. commissioner of customs. that
his bureau could exercise some regu-
lation over dock construction. He
holds that the War Department must
grant a permit for the construction Of
pier in all navigable waters and
that an agreement could be worked
out whereby that department would
not grant such a permit until the
Customs Bureau had approved the
construction.
1t was pointed out that there now
are many places where ships en-
ploye can toss a package to landing
dock that is not walled.
The Assistant Secretary says his
customs agents now are in competi-
tion with highly organized private de-
tective agencies employed by the
steamship lines to combat smuggling
and that he has notified his men he
will not tolerate the customs service
coming out second in an efficiency
rating
