WEEK IS BUSY
FOR CITIZEN
GROUPS
BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

With II citizen associations, In
cluding the federation, scheduled
for meetings during the current
week, indications point to con-
sideration of many legislative and
other questions important to the
District. Among these are the
Jacobs fiscal relations report, the
horse racing bill introduced by
Representative Norton and the
red rider bill, which has caused
more diScord and debate than any
other recent question.
With few exceptions citizen
groups have diSapproved the rae
ing bill, arguing it would tend to
increase gambling. One associa-
ton recently, opposing the racing
bill, expressed opinion that a IL
censed public lottery would be
preferable where all the proceeds
would go to the District.
Citizens associations generally
have withheld recommendations
involving expenditures until Con-
gress shall take action on the
Jacobs report, fearing that should
it be accepted in it's present form,
which eliminates a 'lump-sum"
Federal appropriation, a stiff in
crease in taxes may be imposed on
voteless residents of the District.
Civic leaders privately have ex-
pressed approval of appointment
by the Commissioners of Joint
citizens committee of 18 prominent
residents affiliated with civic
groups, business and banking in
terests to investigate and report
on possible changes at the District
Building in the interest of greater
efficiency, the first time in history
such a committee has been ap-
pointed.
Another matter likely to be dis
cuSsed is the recent action of Police
Court judges in overriding regula-
tions issued by the Commissioners
placing a parking ban on certain
thoroughfareS for snow removal
until March Is.

But the leisurely luncheon has

The biggest hit on Broadway
this season has not been a musical
comedy or a Minsky production,
but the grand opera Tristan and
Isolde" which has crossed $108,-
10000 in seven performances at
the Metropolitan Opera House.
Opera seems to be looking up, but
past Washington.
The concert of the National
Symphony Orchestra, DR.. Hans
Kinder conducting, yesterday
afternoon in Constitution Hall,
was the occasion for the Washing
ton debut of a youthful French
violinist, Jacqueline SalomonS,
and it was also the occasion for a
considerable ovation following
both of her presentations.
Miss SalomonS, in performing
ChauSson'S "Poeme," chose type
of work that was peculiarly fitted
to her emotional nature. There

lieved that more work is accom-.
plished by the plan Of resting be,
fore you become tired. thereby
eliminating the extra energy spen.
n making repairs when the physi.
cal machine is over-tired. The fam.
Gus inventor claimed that while
the intellect never tires, mans
body must have rest.
Mr.. Edison was supposed to have
thrived on four hours sleep each
night, but, as a matter of fact,
he slept at frequent intervals dur
ing the day on his couch at the
laboratory. One of the most effici-
ent men of all times, Mr.. Edison
had the remarkable ability of re-
laxing whenever he wished. He
never pushed fatigue nor did
he approve of his workers doing
so.
Both the brainworker, concen-
trating intently for hours, and
the factory worker, sitting at his
machine for the same length OF
time, will work more effeCtually
during the afternoon after an ade-
quate monday rest period. Thirty
minutes for lunch is far too little.
The business man who is 50
pressed for time that he sends out
for a sandwich and coffee, which
he eats at his desk, is penalizing
his own efficiency.
It is better to quit work before
you feel yourself getting tired. II
you continue after you have be-
come weary. a normal amount of
rest will not suffice to dispel IA
tigue because you have oVerdraWn
on your reserve nervous and ply
sical energy. That is the reason
you sometimes get up tired in the
morning even though you had a
normal amount of rest.
In addition to forestalling IA
tigue, an extended noontirne res
pite tends to lessen the furious
pace Of American business and in
dustry-a long popular subject Of
foreign cartoons.
One cartoonist depicts a long
road leading uphill to a cemetery,
some Europeans poking along in
a push cart, and a car filled with
Americans speeding madly by. The

spective series in the Pacific Coast
league today, widening the gap
between the two divisions in the
circuit.
All of the top four teams won
yesterday for the first time this

The Padres took their third in

Sacramento beat the Missions,

The Solons batted Walter Beck
from the mound in three innings,
