WITH record attendance at
" the Paris exposition, Deau-
vile is out to consolidate its
comeback Of last year, and to
provide the Grande Semaine in
all it's glory. We have painful
recollection of the grand week"
during August, when it seemed
that all the world packed the
hotels at Deauville and sent
prices Sky-rocketing to what
must surely have been records.
But those glad, but mad days
are over, we feel, phase of our
complex civilization that has
ceased to be. Deauville, the
beach of flowers, will be host to
a throng this summer, but its
visitors will be culled from the
usual tourist rather than from
the exotic international set.
1t is a beautiful spot, this Nor.
mandy resort. with its glorious
beach. its baths, it's solariums.
massage rooms, physical drill
stadia on the beach, its golf
links and race tracks and its
constant round of feteS and
sporting events.
Always Plenty
Of Excitement
The horse races, run on the
two lovely, flower-filled tracks;
the tennis tournaments, played
on the IS championship courts
of the smart Sporting Club; the
regatta and the parties after
ward in the rooms Of the smart
Yacht Club-all these give some
idea Of the life at this lively
resort.
AS the season wakes, there Is
always plenty Of excitement at
the very up-to-the-minute air
port, with it's restaurants and
meteorological offices, its Gus
tom house and CHEEKY waiting
rooms, where the crowd waits to
meet friends who fly over in
their private planes, it being a
scant As minutes from Paris and
just about an hour from Lon

Another Tax Wedge

OPPONENTS of the construction of an abattor at
" Benning are enthusiastic over the possibilities of
the Collins bill to limit the amount of waste which
would be allowed to flow into the city's sewage dis
posal plant from this and similar establishments
Hesitant about introducing a discord into the har-
mony with which they greet this measure we never
theless think it wise to sound word of warning.
This bill may very likely become measure to add
another tax the already lengthen-
WOULd Set ing list paid by Westinghouse.
Procodont It will be readily recalled that a
short time ago member of Congress
talked for hours the fact that residents of his home
town in Texas had to pay special sewer tax while
Washingtonians paid no such tax.
We not arguing in favor of turning the city over
to industries but arguing against establishing
entering wedge for another tax
By giving the District Commissioners power to set
the compensation to be exaced from firms discharging
more than thirty million gallons of waste into the sewer
system annually precedent would be set which could
easily be extended to every home in the city.

Oh! Make a Guess!

XXIASHINGTONIANS we'll remember the investiga-
w ton of fiscal relations between the District and
Federal governments by the so-called Jacobsen COM
mittee.
They should they paid fifty thousand dollars for it.
Likewise they have fresh in their minds the invest-
cation recently concluded by the
feSULtS Are District Airport Commission.
Lacking They should, they paid ten thou
sand dollars for it.
Neither of these inquiries produced anything sub
stantial in return for the expenditure.
The District now is asked or rather directed, to
finance another investigation, this time Of new tax
schemes to replace those about to be foised on u.s.
This inquiry will cost five thousand dollars
Can you guess the result?

The Long VieW

Now that the automobile Is
taking residents farther and
farther into suburban areas, it
becomes more important than
ever for the planning COM
missions and local governments
having jurisdiction over Wash
ington's suburban districts to
exercise a close supervision over
street, highway and coming
problems, to the end that the
metropolitan area as such may
be as attractive as washington
itself.
In saying this I am thinking
of unsightly telephone and light
poles, of messy overhead wires,
of mutilated trees along fine
boulevards, and of streets and
avenues laid out without rela-
tionship to adjacent areas or to
the basic plan of washington.
I believe also that it would be
constructive for our builders as
well as our planners to study
the garden cities of England, or
the planning of the few garden
communities in this country, in
Guiding Greenbelt and Colonial
Village in Arlington county, be-
fore going ahead with CONNER
cial building projects.

President Roosevelt is now

more of his hangers-on. We've
had plenty of good Presidents in

to have nine secretaries, which
is what Mr.. Roosevelt will have
when the Congress gives him his

If Mr.. Roosevelt would fire
some of the people he has
around him now both he and
the country would be a lot better
off. Instead of doing that, how.
ever, he wants to add more

TN NO place is courtesy necessary as it is on the
i seas.
It is for this reason that nautical folk through the
years have built up traditions and manners which,
while on the surface they may to be only polite
fctions actually are the means of preserving life and
property.
In recent weeks at least one drowning in Washing
ton waters and several in the waters of nearby States
have been caused by the sregardng of these courteses
and traditions.
Owners of boats capable of
End1nger high speed have operated their
T;,.oa ~ OtLa-o craft in such manner to
danger the lives of those in
smaller boats nearby.
By speeding their power boats in waters where
smaller motorboats rowboas and canoes are afloat
they have created heavy wakes which have set these
little craft bobbng like eggshes have turned them
over with resultant loss of life
No great hardship would be imposed on the owners
of speed boats if they held them down to reasonably
low speed while passing through crowded waters.
It would be we'll for their operators to realize that
many persons in the smaller craft are not completely
at home in their boats and may not know the proper
for overcoming the dangers which the speed
boats create.
You never know when you may need the considera-
ton which you disinclined to show to others.

''Tt will be a cold wnssf wait ing on the corner of Leavenworth and Grand streets in the line that forr1s," said the man with the cigar. But that's how I see it, the moving finger on the voting machines and then 8 hypothetical line forming for the season of 1889. Of course, it's bit early to tell how things will go in the election two years from now"
 Say, what are you doing to me?" demanded the inquiring re- porter from The Democrat, still at work on the old line of seeing what the man in the street will have, come election. Don't you realize that I have enough on my hands with this election coming up without your best predictions on 1889 tendencies?"
 Strange Assortment
 "Yes, sir" continued he with the stogie, "There'll be a strange assortment seeking control of city affairs. Take John P. Tobin. In his place you'll find J. Warren Upson trying to regain unity control, and a group of merit system propa- gandists hieing to Republican headquarters to get force behind a petition to place black alley cats within the civil service re- ullirementS, You take George T, Culhane. ."

 Gracious, but you are behind me, aren't you?" exclaimed his honorable nuisance. My dear, dear boy, I am speaking hypo- thetically, don't you know. This Is the last part of September and it's still 1887, if you must dismiss my neat little predictioning."
