Asks Law 10 Require
Recording Of Auto Leins

In a statement yesterday, Record
er of Deeds William j. Thompkins
urged passage of legislation requiring
the recording of liens on automo-
biles and opposed a bill which would
transfer the recording of the liens
from his Office to that of the Director
of Traffic.
Mr.. Thompkins argued that while
the traffic Office seeks SIS, 900 to take
over this recording, his Office can do
the job at a 5000 cost because it
already Is equipped to handle the
business. He further suggested that
the registration of liens on auto
mobiles be made compulsory instead
Of voluntary, and that the present
registration fee be cut from $3.50 to
SO cents.
Mr.. Thompkins recommended that
the registration Of liens be made
compulsory also on refrigerators,
furniture and other kinds of personal
property to protect the buyer from
the possibility of unknowingly pur-
chasing secondhand goods subject
to attachment

Hampshire Heights
Cleanup Drive
Is Started
Merchants Cooperation
Sought to Improve
Shopping Center

Charging conditions in the vicinity
OF New Hampshire avenue and Far
ragut street NV. are "unsightly and
disgraceful" the Hampshire Heights
Citizens Association is beginning a
cleanup" campaign in that area.
Harold D. johnson, president Of
the association, stated last night that
the owners and merchants doing
business in the area would be asked
to cooperate with the association in
its plan.
The physical structure of shop
ping center in the area is one reason
for existing conditions, he said.
When the center was built, the front
OF the stores were built facing First
street with the parking area in the
rear bordering on New Hampshire
avenue. This condition left both
entrances to the stores as potential
fronts" and both entrances are
visible to the public. Disposal of
rubbish and trash in public view
results in a very unsightly condition,
air. johnson contends.
Another reason for complaint is
the blocking of the sidewalk on First
street by trucks that are not able to
get to the rear of the stores because
OF the narrow 16-foot L-shaped alley.
The alley enters from First street
and runs to the rear of the stores,
turns left and comes out on Farragut
street thereby making a L-shaped
alley.
What We are trying to do in this
case" Mr.. johnson said, lis to make
a T-shaped alley by cutting through
to New Hampshire avenue and thus
allow the large trucks to enter the
alley and not block the sidewalk on
First street."

OF yesterday may be briefly sum-
married.
THE Society of the Army of the
Cumberland held a meeting in the
morning in the grand tent erected
on the White Lot, the largest tents
ever put up in the country. This
was business meeting, and here
were finished and perfected the de-
tails OF the arrangements that the
afternoon saw carried out with
such signal success. Following this
came the forming of the vast pro-
cession, which exhibited a longer
line of men in rank than Wash
lngton has seen since the grand
review in 1865. Formed at the foot
OF the Capitol, it reached up the
Avenue to Four -and-a Half street
west, and, overfowing those bounds,
surged up the latter street to Louisi-
ana avenue. The entire column
composed of civilians, soldiers, ex-
soldiers, representatives of all the
executive departments of the Gov
ernment, with the organizations
from abroad. passed up the Avenue.

were men distinguished in all walks
OF life, including President Hayes and
members of his cabinet, judges of
the Supreme Court of the United
States, District Commissioners,
Speaker Samuel j. Randall of the
House of Representatives, Gen. viii
liam T. Sherman, Admiral D. D.
Porter, Commodore Whiting, Chief
Constructor j. w. Easily and large
number of members of the United
States Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives.
Two of the most distinguished
characters who took part in this
notable event were Gen. James A.
Garfield and Gen. Winfield Scott
Hancock, who contested just one
year later in the political arena
for the presidency of the United
States, and in less than two years
time President Garfield had made
the supreme sacrifice and was ST.
lently sleeping In his far-off Ohio
tomb. Gen Garfield was in charge
OF the unveiling exercises at the
circle.
However, the part that Garfield
took In the ceremonies of unwilling
the statue Of Gen, Thomas had
nothing to do with the subsequent
selecting of the site for the National
City Christian Church, though he
was of this faith, and attended a
modest frame church then on Yer.

Is Asked
New Northwest Council
Backs Income and
Sales Tax Plan

ApOuClon OF all IraCernltleS and
sororities in District public high
schools, whether they be recognized
by authorities or not, has been asked
Of Schools Supt. Frank w. Ballou
by the newly formed Northwest
Citizens Civic Council.
The action was the first taken by
the new civic group last week in a
formation meeting at the home of
Mrs. Leslie B. Wright, president of
the Forest Hills Citizens Associ-
alton.
The new council is a counterpart
Of the Northeast Conference and
the Southeast Council, which repre-
sent. as a cross-section, the citizens
groups in their respective area.
Member associations in the North
west Council so far include Forest
Hills, American University Park,
Chevy Chase, North Cleveland Park
and Cathedral Heights-Cle
Park.
Boundaries Listed.
The territory to be encompassed
by the council will cover an area
bounded on the south by Massa-
chusetts avenue, on the west by the
Dalecarlia Reservoir, on the east by
Rock Creek Park and on the north
by the District line.
The council also asked that more
branch libraries for outlying Sec
tions of the city be constructed be-
fore another central administrating
library is erected in the downtown
section.
Unanimous approval was voted on
a proposal that a combined sales
and personal income tax be levied
in the District in lieu of other types
of taxation in effect or proposed.
Don Carpenter, president of the
Chevy Chase group and first vice
president Of the council, was dele
gated by Mr.. Colman to attend the
District of Columbia budget hear
ings in the District Building Tues
day on behalf of the five associ-
ations represented in the council.
Culver B. Chamberlin of Cathe-
dral Heights-Cleveland Park and
second vice president of the council,
was assigned to draw up the code of
regulations which will form the
constitution of the council.
Two other associations, the Con-
necticut Avenue and Friendship
Heights groups, may become men,
bers.
Only one other association exists
within the areas of the council,
Richmond Park.
Defers Federation Action.
According to Mr.. Colman, the
council will not attempt to join the
Federation of Citizens Associations
until next year. The American
University Park head said it was
expected the council would spend
about a years time strengthening
its position and working out the
problems of a new organization be-
fore branching out into activities of
city-wide scope.
The founding of such a council
has been contemplated by northwest
civic leaders for some years. OBJ
ject Of the council was given by
Mr.. Colman as being necessary to
cope adequately with problems in
the section.

Gil will include agitation for q L.
brary In the sector and requests

will be held in the middle of April.

A drive to stop some Photographic
agencies in the District from identi-
tying themselves as representatives
of bona fide news associations or
services has been started by the
Better Business Bureau.
According to Claude H. Woodward
director of the bureau, complaints
nave been received from District
residents concerning calls made on
them by members of so-called news
associations who ask to take their
picture for publication. The pho
tographers then return with the de-
veloped picture and attempt to
'hlgh-pressure' the individual into
buying it, Mr.. Woodward explained.
Upon investigation, bureau off,
cials discovered that the photograph
companies in question have no off,
cial connection with recognized news
services and their aim is to sell the
picture back to the "unsuspecting"
client, the bureau director said.
