Protest Is Voiced
By Citizens Against
Open Sewer.
Sixteenth Street
Heights Association Asks
Maryland to Act

Condemning an open sewer on the
north side Of the East-West high
way as detrimental to health" the
Sixteenth Street Heights Citizens
Association passed resolution last
night asking the Maryland Park and
Planning Commission for the extern
sion Of the sewer to connect with the
District sewer not more than 200
feet away.
Perry Cleveland, who introduced
the resolution, stated that no at
tempt had been made by Maryland
to connect the sewer since the COM
pletion of the District sewer In Feb
ruary. 1888. Mr.. Cleveland stated
contaminated water now flows over
the ground for distance of 100 feet
or more before entering Rock Creek.
Main opposition was voiced against
the sewer remaining open this sum-
mer when the children of that COM
munity play in Rock Greek Park
and would thereby be subjected to
infection.
Protest Construction.
The association joined with the
Citizens Association of Takoma,
D. c.. in protesting the granting of
building permits for II narrow
houses in the 500 block of Fern
place NV. Fear was expressed that
buildings Of this type erected for
rental purposes would spread
throughout the city and reduce
property value Of adjacent higher
value buildings.
Proposals Indorsed.
After report from Oliver Sweet,
chairman of the Legislative Com
mittee, the association indorsed:
l. The Griffenhagen plan in prin-
ciple, but excepting any change In
the present setup of the Board Of
Education, any change in the Board
OF Library Trustees, any change In
the Public Utilities Commission.
2. The Overton fiscal relations
formula.
3. The Summers resolution for ma
tional representation.
4. The holdings of primaries for
selection of delegates to national
political conventions.

Thursday attacked provisions Of
the sI.7I6.O000 600 house relief bill.
particularly the proposed three~
man WPA board, which, he eharg-
ed. would cause delay and red
tape.
Harrington made his attack a.

and argued over provisions to end
politics-in-relief.
He told a press conference tho
proposed three-man setup was .

The river had come up a little,
but twas still 4 long way to the
top Of the bank. There seemed
little danger from that quarter,
though the storm still was hover
ing close in the east. threatening
to make 4 complete circuit and re-
turn during the night.
Back in the old meeting house we
made our bed on one Of the tables.
II was the only clean and dry
place left in the building.
Five o'clock in the morning saw
US climb out Of our improvised bed
to look upon sky grey with
threatening rain. Hurrying to pack
our equipment, we could at least
make the seven miles to Brockton.
we were on the river by six,
battling a strong east wind.
Hunt Restaurant
Tempers were short that MORN
ing and all we could do to relieve
them was pull harder so that We
made the town in little more
than an hour. Running in retreat.
We felt our way out Of the chan
mel, through shallow passage.
into the shelter Of long sandbar
Just in front Of the tiny town.
Planning to get our breakfast
at q cafe In town and then try
to run ahead OF the rain, We tied
the canoe and. taking our radio.
typewriter and paddles with us,
made our way to the first house
with the idea Of leaving that part
Of the equipment there that was
most likely to be stolen.
To our chsgrin the lady Of the
house told us that the only restau-
rant in the town had closed up
the week before because Of lack
OF business. But, when We ex-
planned our circumstances, the
good lady told US TO bring up our
stuff and cook breakfast In her
kitchen, bless her kind heart.
Here more pouring rain stopped .
Us again.
The rain kept up steadily and
during the first part Of the night
the wind again shifted and blew
up another first class thunder
storm. Bat the storms we were
more or less used to now, so the
thing that made this night par
tieularly memorable was . new /
acquaintance.
For the first time in our lives
and we hope the last-we came
to know bcdbugs! Neither of us
had ever seen them before. much
less felt them. Bob was awakened
by a particularly loud crash of
thunder to find himself doing q
swell job of itching. At first he
thought It was merely his sunburn
peeling, when he began to feel
distinct welts on his arms and
shoulders.
With 4 horrible suspicion he
made = grab for his flashlight and
turned It on his pillow. Sure
enough. he got three with the
first slap and two more with =
second before the light drove
them to cover. One Of the slaps
had graxed Louise's ear and she
jumped up and saxed at her hus-
hand ~ though he were crazy.
He was. in 4 way. and made no
bones about IT. And when she

The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1939-06-17

We stood in the middle of the
floor and debated on whether We
should sleep In that bed with the
light on. or make up our own bed
on the floor. Feeling the objec-
tionable little beasts might get in
our own bedding. we voted down
the last thought, and feeling our
hosts might become curious and
then embarrassed IL we left the
light on, we passed by the first
thought.
There was nothing TO do but
to organize a hunting expedition
right then and there, though in
our ignorance we hardly knew
how TO 60 about 1t. Anyway, we
turned, stationed ourselves beside
the bed. and turned out the light
for five minutes. while We enjoyed
the doubtful pleasure of a mid
night cigaret.
BY this time both OF us were
itching all over. despite the fact
Bob was the only one who had
been attacked. When we turned
on the light. we were ready to do
furious battle. but found only one
little fellow In full retreat. Thank
heaven. there weren't many, and
we managed to sleep most Of the
rest Of the night.
Another Delay
We are afraid our very pleasant
hosts took a peek into our log
book while we were looking over
the tiny town Of Brockton next
morning. for. when We got back,
they were industriously spraying
all the beds in sight with some
sort Of snti-bedbug solution.
Our reason for another day in
Brockton WAS one that is begin
ming to be an old story on the
voyage. Rain and more rain For
ten years this country has suf-
tered from practically no rainfall
at 40, About the only thing any
one could raise was a good dust
storm now and then. But this
year the rainfall Is far above nor
NAL Of even the wet years.
Ne would pick such a year for
such h rigid schedule. We now
are SO far behind our original
plans that we don't take time to
think Of our 20 miles a day, but
just 70 along a. far and a. fast
~ we can when we can. The
irony Of it Ia that every day We
have had good weather. 80 that
we could make a full days run.
we have made anywhere from 40
10 IS miles without too much
struggle.
Find Night Club
Our tour of Brockton took all
II five minutes and We don't be-
ieve We missed a thing. Most of
he tiny village is in the Fort
Peck reservation, but the few
'hacks across the Great Northern
racks are on state land and that
3 where most OF the white folks
i've.
The most remarkable thing about
he whole town was that il had
IN honest to goodness night club.
Of course. 1t only operated on
Saturday nights and holidays. but
I was a night club. nevertheless.
The Indian names held a fssci-
,ation for US. Whoever thought
