DEBATE ON CITY
ATARL|NGT0N

ARLINGTON, Va, Feb. IT,
The pros and cons of incorpora-
ton of Arlington county were ar
gued by two attorneys in an in
formative debate in Odd Fellows
Hall at Clarendon last night. Ap-
proximately so persons attended.
j. Foster Hagan, on the affirm
ative, said incorporation would
stabilize government of the COM
munity by a grant of power under
city charter, would give citizens
a more representative government
by division of the territory into
wards and would result in more
equal distribution of the tax bur
den through local licenses on busl-
ness and professions not taxed by
the county.
For the negative, Thomas w.
Phillips declared incorporation
would result in only two changes
the county would become Airing
ton City, and 1--WE would raise by
additional taxes and licenses OF
merchants more than 100000 a
year to be distributed to the State
for use in other counties"
Otherwise, Arlington county has
all the rights, powers and flexibil-
ity of government enpoyed by a
city, Phillips argued.

SAFETY ABOVE
RIGHT OF WAY,
C0URTFINDS

Irrespective of whether or not
he has the right of way at street
intersection, a taXicab driver must
give his first thought to the safety
of his passenger, the Court of Ap-
peals ruled today.
The court ruling was in the suit
of Catherine M. Francis. an en-
ploye of the RFC, against the In.
dependent Taxicab Ownes Associa.
ton and Joseph H. Fitzpatrick,
driver of the cab in which she was
She was injured in a collision
at First and F Streets Northwest,
when the cab in which she was
riding was in collision with a
small privately-owned automobile.
Her attorney, Marcus Borchardt,
brought the suit for her and in
the trial the defendants claimed
they we're not to blame because
they had the right of way.
The jury found for the defend
ants ana Che plalnCl1tS appealed.
Holding that the jury had not
been properly instructed by the
trial justice. the appellate court in
a split opinion, said in part:
"The duty of a common car
rier to its passenger is para
mount to the right Of common
carrier to pursue its right of way
in reSpeca Of another car. The
jury, If fully instructed, might
have found that such conduct
would have been less than the
extraordinary care owed the
plaintiff passenger, that is,
might have found that the taxi
cab driver should have stopped
and permitted the Ford car to
pass, regardless of the fact that
technically the taxicab had the
right of way"
Associate Justice Harold N.
Stephens wrote the majority opin-
ion Of the higher court and two
members of the tribunal dissented.
The case must be retired in the
District Court.

BOY
TO Be NAMED
F0RP0ST

Another colored youth is to be
appointed to the U. S. Military
Academy within 10 days, and if
the dropping of James Lee john
son is upheld a second boy will be
appointed to fill the vacancy.
Representative Arthur w. Mitch
ell CD of Illinois, announced this
plan as an investigation into the
forced resignation of johnson got
under way at the White House to-
day.
Up to President
The Representative carried to
President Roosevelt his charge
that the youth, who lives at 1887
S st. N. W., was railroaded out Of
the Academy at Annapolis. AS he
was leaving after the conference
yesterday he said:
Il think we will get fair play.
There is no question in my mind
that they railroaded this mid.
shipman out Of the Academy. I
think l can produce evidence to
that effect"
On his visit, Mitchell carried
with him a bulging brief case
which he told reporters contained
evidence to back up his assertions
The Representative said he will
appoint only someone who has a
high scholastic standing so there
will not be any basis for another
forced resignation.
Protests to Navy
johnson, it is understood. was
asked for his resignation on the
ground that he was late for for.
nation seven times, failed in two
subjects and had deficient eye
sight.
The youth was one of 1873 who
handed in their designations. Pre-
vious to his visit to the White
House, the Representative had
conferred with Real Admiral
David F. Sellers, superintendent
of the Academy, and has sent 6
protest to the Navy Department
he said. Mitchell said he will not
appoint another District boy.
