COMPLAINTS ON BUS
PARKING REMEDIED
Annoying Lights Changed and
Testing Ground Abandoned at
Request of Citizens.

Repeated protests by the Friendship
Citizens Association against discom-
forts resulting from the use of ground
at Forty-fourth and Harrison streets
as a bus parking lot has resulted in
some effort being made by the Capital
Transit Co. to adjust the situation.
Strong searchlights, formerly on top
the bus garage adjacent to the lot,
have been placed on poles at the other
end of the lot and now shine toward
the garage and not toward houses
on Harrison street.
The traction company has also
ceased using Harrison street and
Forty-fourth street as a testing ground
for the buses. This is in line with
promise made by William A. Bennett,
assistant to John H. Hanna, president
of the Capital Transit Co. Some
members of the association are con-
templating taking legal action to force
the Commissioners to revoke the per-
nit issued to the company for use OF
the lot. They claim that as the
property is zoned for residential it
cannot be used for commercial pur-
poses. They also claim that when
the Commissioners planned to issue
the permit they should have first pub
lished the fact and then hold public
hearing on the matter, neither OF
which was done

A mass meeting of all citizens in
Seat Pleasant, Md, and adjacent
towns has been called by Mayor Har-
mon o. Acuff and F. L. Watkins to
form a civic organization to work Tor
the much-needed Improvements IN
these communities. The meeting Will
be held in Watkins Hall, Scat Pleas
ant, Md. Tuesday night at 8 O'CLOCK.
The chief objective of the proposed
association will be to get Roosevelt
avenue paved from the District line
to Chapel road.
With the Endorsements of the Prince
Georges Chamber of Commerce, the
Seat Pleasant business men and mem
bers of che Town Council, the leaders
of the movement believe the backing
of a citizens association is all that Is
needed to secure the improvements.
Mayor Acuff said Dr.. H. E. Tabler'
chairman of the State Roads Com
mission, and Nathan L. Smith. CHIEF
engineer of the commission, will In
spect theAroad this week.

Seat Pleasant Mass Meeting
Is Called for Tuesday Night

AS soon as the paving of Roosevelt
avenue is assured the paving of the
discontinued Washington, Baltimore &
Annapolis Railroad roadbed from the
District line to Baltimore will receive
the attention Of the civic body, under
the tentative plans to be offered at
the mass meeting.
Another association Is being formed
at High Bridge, Md. to seek the paw
ing of the railroads right of way.
This group will consist of about so
Government employees, who were left
without a direct connection with
Washington when the railroad ceased
to operate. Several other groups are
expected to organize soon with the
same objective.
The opening of East Capitol street
to the Maryland line, the building of
q bridge over the Anacostia River at
East Capitol street and the opening of
either Sixty-third street or Southern

Varied Activities Reported
BY Peoples Counsel.

ALL civic bodies have received
from the Peoples Counsel
W. A. Roberts. copies Of his an
nual report for the fiscal year
ended June 80. 1885, together
with a memorandum of greater
length telling of his other civic
activities and describing some of
the pending civic problems. His
report lists, in brief, the various
public utility cases in which he has
appeared.
A considerable portion Of the
year was consumed in the pres
entation of evidence and the fol-
low-up of matters incident to the
rerouting and equipment of the
merged transit systems. Assump-
ton of the duties formerly devolv-
ing upon him as Special Assistant
Corporation Counsel in rent condi-
tions and rental matters were re-
sponsible for a marked expansion
in the duties of the Office.
"A conscientious effort to visit
as many of the organization meet
ings as was physically possible was
! made by the incumbent of the
Office, and during the last six
months of the year 1884. 81 formal
sessions of civic bodies were at
tended, in most cases involving
presentation of information relat-
ing to local utility questions.
The "trick title" of the Office
held by Roberts is responsible for
his getting good many jobs never
contemplated when the Office was
created. Many people overlook the
fact that the job of peoples coun-
sci is designed solely for the rep
resentation of the people before
the Utility Commission and the
courts in utility matters. His re-
port states. that not less than 500
separate inquiries were noted and
recorded after appropriate action
during the calendar year 1884. In
a large number of cases these in
quiries were on matters other than
relating to public utilities. Many
citizens, intrigued by the name
peoples counsel" thought that
this was the place to get free legal
advice. It has been suggested that

stitution, more than so years
old, has always been located at
the corner of N and Sec
ond streets northeast. The original
building of the hospital group was
originally an old brewery which
had later been remodeled into
public school building. Many old
citizens will remember that school
children of that section of over a
half century ago when asked where
they went to school would tell you,
''at the brewery.
The plan is to locate the institu-
ton in or near the Chevy Chase
section, subject to the desire of the
residents of that district and to
their willingness to help in the
campaign. The report commends
the hospital as smoothly function
ing and having an excellent staff.
1t is proposed to drop the name
Homeopathic" and include in the
enlarged staff and on the board of
directors representatives of both
schools of medicine 1t is the aim
of the new institution to provide
low-cost private and semi-private
rooms.
The report he's gone forward to
the Federation of Citizens Asso-
Citations for consideration and
action and has already had the ap-
proval of the associations of Kalo-
rama and Cathedral Heights
Cleveland Park. A fund raising
campaign will be staged early in
the new year and speakers are
being offered to address all civic
bodies to further the cause.
