TAK0MA PARK
CITIZENS HIT
TAX BOOST
BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

Placing itself on record as op
posed to a 20 per cent increase
in the real estate tax, authorized
by the House yesterday, the Ia
koma Park Citizens Association
last night adopted resolutions pc
titioning the Senate to substitute
other means of taxation to meet
the 1888 deficit.
Burt w. Adams declared the
1898 District bill called for an
appropriation far beyond reason
when compared with the annual
budget of many States. He pointed
out that the real sufferer under
the increased levy would be the
small wage Garner.
In another resolution, the Capl.
tai Transit Company was assailed
for failing to provide adequate
service either by bus or rail to
Takoma Park.
Norton Move Regretted
The association unanimously IN
dorsed a resolution by Mrs. Mary
Lamond White expressing regrets
at the decision of Mary T. Norton
to resign the Craftsmanship OF the
House District Committee.
Approval was given a report by
DR.. Guy Clinton, who urged eliml-
nation of all northumberland
traffic regulations, and urged edu-
cation, engineering and enforce
ment to reduce fatalities, with the
use of unmarked cars with a
policeman and civilian driver in
detecting violators of speed regula-
tons.
On motion by Howard S. Fisk,
the Director Of Traffic was asked
to extend one-way traffic on Thlr-
tenth Street from Spring Road
to Colorado Avenue during rush
hours.
Road Contract Let
L. R. Graybill, chairman Of the
committee on highways, reported
a contract had been let by Mary
land authorities for the extension
of New Hampshire Avenue from
the District Line to the East-West
Highway.
DR.. william Hooker, as chair
man: Mr.. Fisk, Mrs. White, John
w. Coffman, Mr.. Graybill, Preston
C. King, and Walter Trey were an
nounced as a committee to con-
tinue the search for an appro-
pirate site for the Benjamin
Franklin Memorial.
Entering its forty-Seventh year
the association elected the follow
ing officers: President, DR.. Gin
ton; first vice president, Reed F.
Martin; second vice president, Mrs.
White; secretary, DR.. Chester c.
Waters; treasurer, Arthur F. Cor
don; delegates to the Federation
of Citizens Associations, Walter
Trey and Mr.. Martin.
The Lincoln Park Citizens Asso-
Citations will meet in special seS-
sion Monday night at the Bryan
School to take action on proposed
tax increases for the District.
