Three, the first two required by
Congress in the new relief bill, were
ordered as follows:
l. Need of veterans for relief should
be determined without taking into
consideration the payment of the
bonus.
2. Aliens illegally entered into the
United States shall be barred from
work relief jobs, and administrators
shall make every reasonable effort
consistent with prompt employment
of the destitute unemployed to see
that such aliens are not employed
3. WPA workers no longer will be
paid for time lost because of weather
conditions or temporary interruption
in operation Of projects, but shall
be allowed every reasonable oppor-
tunity to make up the time lost in
that month or the succeeding month.
Hopkins continued the requirement
that 90 percent of WPA employees be
taken from relief rolls.
The WPA field staff was given re-
sponsioility for selecting workers.

z GROUPS BACK
NEW FIRE SH|F IS
Increased Personnel Would
Be Necessary to Start
Three-PIatoon System.

Twenty-Five Of the Districts cit
liens associations, meeting within the
two months, have expressed their ap-
the Bradbury Heights Citizens Asso-
citation, which calls for change from
the existing order to the three platoon
system for the city's firemen. At
present, two shifts of 10 and IA hours
each are being maintained.
Only two associations, the Mid-City
and Georgetown groups, have taken
q definite negative stand on the
question.
The proposed change, which Is also
backed by the City Fire Fighters As
sociation, would necessitate an in
crease Of one-third In the present per-
sonnel. swelling the ALLEGATION for fire
control proportionately. The estimated
additional cost of the three-platoon
system falls well over a million dol
lars year.
Although the score stands II to /
in favor of the proposal, its success
is not so overwhelming as would ap-
pear at first glance. Several of the
associations. among which are the
Logan Thomas and the Forest Hills
Associations, have signified their dis
approval by tabling the resolution.
The chief objection to the plan Is
the extra expense its adoption would
entail. It was also pointed out that
the fireman does not work during the
greater portion Of his watch, especially
in the case Of the night forces. men,
bers Of which are free to 60 to sleep
subject, Of course, to call-and who,
in some instances, hold down regular
daytime jobs in addition to their
duties as firemen.
Protagonists Of the proposed change
have advanced the opinion that the
fireman, more so than the average
working man, is entitled to an eight
hour working day because Of the
dangerous quality of his work. Men,
bers of the Benning group, who went
on record as favoring the plan. de-
clared that inasmuch as the fireman
must be prepared to risk his life at
any time, he should at least be ac-
corded the usual advantages which
the man in other less dangerous call
ings receives.
Associations favoring the three
platoon system are: Benning. Bright
wood, Burroughs. Columbia Heights
Forum, Columbia Heights, Conduit
Road, Congress Heights, Bradbury
Heights. Kenilworth, North Cleveland
Park, Petworth. Randle Highlands,
Sixteenth Street Heights. Trinidad,
Summit Park. Dahlgren Terrace. North

Club and the Southeast Citizens As
sociation to make plans for the OBJ
servance Of the third anniversary OF
the founding Of the club, to be held

I'VE might have a membership
drive, but the principal project we are
interested in at present Is the con-
struction of the Pennsylvania Ave-
nue. Bridge"
In the 1887 budget an item OF s25,-
900 for the study Of plans for the re-
placement Of the structure was in
cluded. The association now INTENDS
to wage fight with the cooperation

Ox0N RUN INTERCEPTOR
SOUGHT IN 1893 BUDGET
Ernest J. Read to Call Meeting
Of Heads of Groups Interested
Sometime This Week.


Definite steps to have included in
the 1888 District appropriation bill
an item for construction Of the Oxon
Run interceptor are to be made this
week when Ernest J. Read, president
OF the Congress Heights Citizens As
sociation and newly appointed chair
man of special committee selected
for this purpose, calls his co-workers
together to make specific plans for
presentation to the Budget Bureau.
He was selected for the position
by William A. Maio. chairman of the
Southeast Council, at meeting of the
group last month. Read said that
presidents Of the associations vitality
affected by the sewer project. namely.
Washington Highlands, Hillcrest,
Summit Park and Congress Heights,
would be asked to attend the meet
ing and definite plans would be made
at that time to get united action in an
effort to include an appropriation in
the 1888 budget The chairman re-
vealed that an item had been in
cluded in the 1887 budget for the
sewer. but that it had been cut out
by the Budget Bureau.

In an effort to have the item re-
stored by the Senate District Com

As Hobby Of William 4. Maio
Per,a. Ace. Bridge Main
Coal IL, Program, of
Southeast Head.
BY ROBERT B. HANSON.

Although naturally q retiring and
modest person, william A. Maio finds
himself now embarking on his fourth
consecutive term as president OF the
Southeast Citizens Association and
his third as chairman Of the South.
east Council, the latter organization
comprising representatives of 10 citi.
zens' associations Of that section.
The dark haired, slender president
lists civics as his principal hobby
among such diversions as swimming
fishing, playing base ball. studying
geography and history, coin collect
ing and tree planting. The latter has
resulted in two fig trees being grown
to a height of IL feet in his back yard
at 1913 Pennsylvania avenue SOUTH
east. He first planted the tree about
q year ago, he said. Ordinarily it
would take about two years for q fig
tree to attain full growth. he ex-
planned, but these sprouted up in two
years. bearing fruit enough for his
wife and two young children to enjoy
them for several months.
Active in Civic Affairs.
His first love-" however, is civics.
Maio. besides his position as head of
the association and Council, is vice
chairman of the Board OF Governors
OF the Metropolitan Police Boys Club
q charter member and past president
of the Lido Civic Club and q member
of the Buchanan and Hine Junior
High School Parent-Teacher Associ-
ations. In connection with his civic
interests Maio has manifested great
interest in obtaining vote for Dis
trict residents.
As chairman of the Lido Historical
Commission of the Lido Civic Club,
Maio made a complete study of the
life Of Phillip Mazzei, Virginia's over
seas agent during the Revolutionary
War and erstwhile friend of Thomas
Jefferson. When Gen. Italo Balbo
visited this city on his noted mass
flight to,the United States from Italy
in 1888 Maio's zeal for history and
study Of Italian notables led him to
discuss at length the activities of early
Italians of the revolution period with
Balbo.

FEDERAL BUILDING
PROBLEM IS CITED
Citizens Believe DecentraIi-
zation Would Dispose With
Traffic Congestion.

More active interest Is being shown
by civic bodies in the distribution Of
Government buildings throughout the
city, A. F. e. scheer, Of . special COM
mittee Of the Interfederation Con.
ference now studying this problem.
believes.
Scheer yesterday declared this ques-
tion was first brought before the
Dahlgren Terrace Citizens Associa-
ton more than . year ago, and since
that time has occupied the attention
of delegates to the Joint Conference
OF Northeast Citizens Associations,
composed Of civic groups Of the
northeast quarter. and the Inter-
federation Conference, composed of
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions, the Montgomery County Civic
Federation and the Arlington Coc...tv
Civic Federation. The question il
now being brought up at individual
meetings. he said.
Traffic Congestion Cited.
Congested traffic is the principal
result of unwise planning and group
ing Of Government buildings. he said.
At the present rate Of construction
1t Is rapidly becoming impossible for
| the thousands of workers to cram into
this central area and then leave 1t
again at one time each afternoon.
The public transportation facilities
become ensnarled and overtaxed far
beyond q reasonable limit under these
circumstances. and the problem Of
parking the thousands Of automobiles
Of those who use this means of trans
portation has rapidly become un-
| solvable.
The Bureau of Standards Is one
example Of the benefits Of spreading
out the Federal buildings In other
sections. Workers in this department
do not each morning have to 60
through heavy trafic to get to their
work. nor are they unnecessarily de-
layed In leaving each afternoon, un-
less congestion downtown has tied up
transit service that far out Connec-
ticut avenue. Motorists also have no
difficulty In parking their cars, be-
cause no such strict parking regula-
tions as exist downtown are In effect
| there
Car Moving Snarls Traffic.
Trafiic throughout the city would
be greatly aided If the present regu-
lations now in effect were abolished,
he believes. Those who motor down.
town to shop in the department stores
are constantly kept on the jump
every hour by moving their cars from
one one-hour parking space to an
other, and thus adding to an already
congested trafdc area.
Should the Federal Government
continue to concentrate its depart
ments into one central and compact
area, Scheer envisioned q time when
the department stores would have to
seek relief by moving into more scat
tered sections. He cited q few in
stances Of commercial establishments
which have already left what is con-
sidered the downtown area Of Wash.
ington. Parking problems in these
few cases have been greatly reduced.
While he did not express himself
as in favor Of this scattering Of COM
mercial establishments, he does be-
lieve this will become necessary II
more Government buildings are
crowded within this area.
