to the 1885 census only 15,105 ex-
ercised that right of franchise.

Declaring the Federal contribu-
ton to the District is far too small
and entirely out Of proportion to
the load on the local taxpayer,
Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen,
at a victory dinner of the North
east Council Of Citizens Associa-
tions last night in the Brookland
Methodist Church, suggested 4
lump-sum contribution based on
taxation of aforementioned
buildings as tho fairest way to
arrive at what the Federal Gov
eminent should contribute annu-
ally to the District.
He pointed out that the Govern
ment owns 40 per cent Of Wash
ington's real estate, yet it con.
tributes less than IS per cent OF
the city's expenditures.
The banquet celebrated the VIC
tory achieved in securing six ma
jor improvements for the North
east-the Eighteenth Street under
pass, Ninth Street underpass,
FRANKLIN Street railroad bridge,
Michigan Avenue overpaSs, fire
house at Fourteenth Street and

ON BOARD THE DIRIGIBLE
HINDENBURG, October 2 (N.A.N.A).
Smooth sailing. despite heavy wealth
er, has marked the first days prog
ress of this reporters around-the-
world trip by commercial transport.
Through fog and rain the Hinden-
burg has SKINNED faithfully along
the murky Atlantic since her take-of
from Lakehurst. N. j., Wednesday
night. Headwinds have reduced the
big airship's speed to around 40 knots
most of the time, but the crew is
confident we'll reach Frankfort on
scheduled time Saturday morning.
60o-Foot Altitude.
All day We rode along about 600
feet above the heavy sea. white with
foam from huge waves. We have
been fighting bad weather from the
time of our departure, although we
headed due east from LakehurSt to
avoid the worst of the storm. How
ever, we now should make better time
as we have passed out of the storm
area and the ship has been put oa
her course directly northeast to her
German port.
Despite the wind and the heavy
rain, which sent steady streams across
the windows, the roll Of the ship has
been very slight-in fact, she rode
the weather better than the best Of
ocean liners. In several thousand
miles Of air travel, I have never seen
a transport so well equipped
Our first sight of land was of
Halifax, but it was merely some
lonely rocks and forbidding reefs,
with no vegetation and only few
itinerant birds. Following dinner, a
dozen or so of the passengers gath
cred in the smoke room and compared
notes and thoughts on world affairs
until bedtime. Outside all was black.
Lone Fly Stowaway.
This morning when I awoke I
found lone fly in my stateroom
bumming a ride to Germany.
Most OF the passengers slept late
and later found that several of
them, including Maj. Lester D. Gard
ner Of the American Scientific Aero
nautical Society. had stayed up until
4 am.
I am sharing cabin with Lieut..
Comdr. F. H Gilmer, United States
Naval observer on the trip, who is
showing an intense interest in the
