Night.

Rum Row as it existed In bygons
days will be described by James r.
Duhanel, historian OF the Society Of

This celebrated quarter Of the city

Of much Of Washington's gay life dur
ing that period when an entire square
near the center of the town was occu-
pied by saloons except for one theater,
In this neighborhood the police
each week rounded up the drunks
and buns and on a certain day pa
raded them down Pennsylvania ave-
nue. to the tune Of The Rouges'
March and shipped them over the
Baltimore g. Ohio road to the North
and West" Duhamel said in explain
ing his subject. This gang" he
added, "slso consisted Of deserters
and bounty jumpers who hung
around Washington expecting some
thing to turn up"
This Is now busy section Of WASH
ington life, he said, and still retains its
theater. A hundred years ago it was
the meeting place of President Jack
sons famous kitchen cabinet.

More than 40 parents attended the

worth Presbyterian Church, was

COMMITTEE ASKS
0NE-MAN CAR BAN
Southeast Business Men
Send Group Before Utilities
Commission.

A report at the December meeting
Of the Southeast Business Mems AS
sociation by q committee appointed tn
investigate the advisability of having
the CAPITAL Transit Co. remove the
one-man street cars running from
Rosslyn to Seventeenth street and
Pennsylvania avenue southeast. Is ex-
pected after hearing last week be-
fore Riley e. Elgen and Richmond B.
Keech, chairman and vice chairman
Of the Public Utilities Commission.
Details of Hearing.
At the hearing the committee, con-
sisting of DR.. H. K. Butler, chairman;
A. w. Lee, vernis Absher and Louis
Frick. presented three requests for
consideration. The first of these asked
discontinuance of all one-man operat-
ed cars, the second replacement with
new cars of the antiquated trolleys
now in service on the Rosslyn-Seven-
teenth street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. southeast line and the third to
do with the proposal Elgen made to
the Capital Transit Co. regarding q
systematic replacement of old cars
with new ones. (Elgen recently sug-
gested to the transit company a sys-
tenatic replacement of old street cars
whereby, according to the proposal,
the company was to buy not less than
so new cars per year and beginning
not later than 1887. Prior to Elgen's
personal request. the Federation Of
Citizens Associations requested that
the Capital Transit Co. order 300 new
cars at once)
During the discussion before the
commission. Keech brought out the
comparisons of other cities using one
man cars with those here.
Eighty per cent of the cars in Bos-
ton are operated by one-man," he
said. Furthermore" he added. sit
has proven to be more satisfactory
from safety standpoint and in main
tanning a faster schedule"
Keech finished by saying that the
same mechanical and safety devices
used on the two-man cars in Boston
had been in effect on the one-man
| car.
Lee then countered by saying that it
was only one city used as a COMPARE
son. which didn't constitute enough
for a favorable example of its effi-
cheney. Keech admitted that the re-
suit was astounding. but offered to
show records to prove his point.
Elgen entered the discussion by say
ing the commission was heartily in
favor OF improving the service, but
they had no power to act as executors
of any orders except as to the safety
| of operation and the sanitation of
the cars. The commission is regulated
by Congress, which gives them limited
powers as to the operation of the street
cars, he added.
The business men appointed the
committee at their last meeting to
confer with the commission. C. Dick
English, vice president of the aSso-
citation, stated at that time the tran
sit company has backed water" as
serting new equipment had been prom
ised, but instead antiquated cars had
resulted, many Of them reconditioneo
one-man cars the transit company
bought from Providence, r. I.
The association went on record last
Spring as opposing one-man cars and
at its meeting this month it was re-
iterated, followed by the appointment
of the committee. To date II civic
organizations have opposed one-man
cars with only Petworth and Kalo-
rama approving.

THANKS TO ROBERTS
Associations Want Office Contin.
ued-Two Are Recommended
to Fill Post.

The popularity OF William A. Roberts
as peoples counsel is shown by the
number of associations which have
passed resolutions expressing appre-
ciation for his services and loss be-
cause of his retirement November !.
To date % associations have passed
resolutions in one form or another.
Most of the groups urge continuation
Of the ONCE, and two groups have
written the President asking that a
successor be appointed in the near
future. few other groups have ap-
pealed to Roberts to reconsider his
resignation.
A movement has started now to rec
ommend appointments for the post.
Up until Thursday, however, only two
names have been submitted. The Co
lumbia Heights Citizens Association
proposed the name of Col. Luther
Maddox, an attorney and a member
of the association. william NICK.
Clayton, chairman Of the Public UtiI-
ties Committee Of the Federation OF
Citizens Associations and the Bright

indorsed by the Dahlgren Terrace

A Native District Woman
Senior High School Principal.

NATIVES of the District of CO.
lumbia have occasion to re-
joice over the appointment of Miss
May p. Bradshaw as principal of
the Theodore Roosevelt High
School to succeed Allan Davis
upon his retirement. Miss Brad
shaw was born in Washington,
graduated from Eastern High
School. Wilson Normal School and
received both her bachelor and
master degrees at George Washing
ton University. She is strictly a
home product.
The Society of Natives OF the
District of Columbia. ever since its
founding. has periodically gone on
record in favor of the Appointment
of natives of the District to local
Offices. Many people here from
the States express surprise that
there are such crea lures as native
Washingtonians and have been
impressed with their apparent
scarcity. They are, however, not
nearly so rare as natives in prom
inent administrative posit o n
under the District government.
The 1880 census reported that
of the total population of 486,S69
there were 180,864 or 37.1 per cent
who were born in the District. The
recent large influx of Government
employees under the New Deal has
undoubtedly cut down the percent
age, but the District still has a
considerable number and propor-
ton of natives.
Miss Bradshaw has been the
very efficient assistant to Allan
Davis since 1924. She Is praised
by DR.. Davis as a fine organizer
and an able executive. The ac-
ton of Supt. Ballou in nominate
ing her and the Board Of Edu.
cation in confirming the appoint
ment is being highly commended
in civic and school organization
circles. This appointment is con-
sidered fine for the morale of the
teaching force as it gives them a
hope that there may be oppor-
tunity to push ahead for the
higher positions in the school sys-
TEN.

each dog captured in the area that is
not wearing q collar or tag. Fisher
outlined the steps already taken by
the civic body to rid the neighborhood
of the undesirable canines." When
the pound wagon was called one time.
he said, the dogs raced for the woods,
eluding the dog catchers. Before
presenting the resolution Fisher sug-
gested that 81 be paid for each dog
captured. Fishers resolution states
that the captured dogs be turned over
to the poundmaster.
The reason given for tabling the
resolution was to give the citizens
more time to study the best way to
clear the neighborhood of the dogs.

A N ACTIVE campaign Is under
way under the leadership Of
the Citizens Association of Ia
kon1a, D. c.: Manor Park Citi.
zens' Association, and the Chillum
Heights Citizens Association for
the erection Of q northern high
school on the property at Fifth

which the recreation center is To-
Gated. The proposed school win

congestion at the Paul Junior High
School as well as Roosevelt and
Central. Later another Junior high
school would be provided in the
section when 1t would be operated
