Those are some 81 the reasons

coast guard reserve.
For war. coast guard cutter and
destroyer ornaments would be
doubled. on gun mounts already
installed. Mines and depth bombs
would be put aboard. and the ships
would assume regular convoy and
harbor defense duties

The larger cutters carry 5-inch
guns. 3-inch and so CALDER anti
aircraft guns. In size and weight.
the ships are mere launches com
pared with naval fighting craft
But at no time in It's history has
the coast guard asked odds OF any
body. and in the World war IL lost
a higher percentage Of It's officers
and men than either Of the other
armed forces Of this country.

are expected to attend before the
dances. The $3.50 tickets entitle
their holders to attend not only
the dinner but the balls at the
various hotels.
The dinner will be the only oc-
casion, outside of the $25 Gold plate
breakfast, where it will be possible
to meet all the stars face to face al
one time.
1t is planned to- stage a reception
preceding the dinner in the small
ball room at the Willard at which
all banquet guests will be introduced
to celebrities.
IntrOductions by Fadiman.
The entire array of movie stars,
in addition to leading sports figures,
will be seated at the head table.
They will be introduced by Clifton

Meeting Is Called
To Form Municipal
Assembly for District
AZ Citizens Back Move
For Organization to Take
Lead on Legislation

A convention to organize munic-
ipal assembly for the District of
Columbia to. take the lead in legis-
lative and civic matters affecting
the area, in line with a suggestion
made by Mrs. Roosevelt, has been
called by A representative citizens,
it was announced today.
The meeting will be held at the
Y. w. c. A., Seventeenth and K
streets NV, at 8 pm. Friday. Mrs.
Roosevelt, speaking on Citizen Par
ticipation in Government" will de-
liver the keynote address.
Much of the action taken at the
organization meeting will be based
on the experience of other cities.
Every group in the District inter-
ested in civic problems has been
asked to send three representatives,
including an officer of the group.
Seton Darr, chairman of the
committee which called the con-
vention, explained that the impetus
for an assembly had been given by
Mrs. Roosevelt, who suggested pri-
vately to one of the members of the
committee that such an organiza-
tion might be helpful in Washington.
Darr Outlines Needs.
washington needs some organiza-
tion which is broadly representative
OF all interests, civic, business, re-
ligiouS, fraternal and welfare, to
clarity and mobilize public opinion, :"
Mr.. Darr declared.
As an example of the present con-
fused state of affairs, he cited that
many separate organizations appear
before Congressional committees
with programs and opinions which
in many instances differ from each
other only in minor details.
THE result" he explained, "is
confusion in the minds of Congress
members as to the real desires and
opinions of the citizens of WASH
ington. If some machinery existed
for public debate on all questions
Of citywide interest, many of these
minor differences could be cleared
up and all groups could present a
solid front to the congressional
committees, thus bringing more
effective pressure to bear for the
passage of beneficial legislation
Would Deal With Major Laws.
The committee will propose, Mr..
Darr said, that the municipal as
sembly deal only with major legis-
lation affecting the District, parti-
cularly that concerning fiscal affairs,
housing, living standards, health,
labor, education, suffrage and city
planning. 1t also will recommend
that decisions of the assembly have
no binding effect on member Or
ganizations, but that results OF deli
berations at the public monthly
meetings be transmitted to the
Commissioners, to Congress and to
the various civic groups for any in
dividual action they may wish to
| take.
The A citizens are Miss Bessie
Baker, Mrs. Harry S. Bernton, Mr..
Darr, Eugene Davidson, Miss Dor

Judge Nelson Calls
Speeding Greatest
Traffic Menace
Offenders Can Expect
No Lenieney, Police
Court Jurist Warns

Speeding motorists constitute one
Of the citys greatest traffic hazards,
Police Court Judge George D. Neil
son believes, citing the number of
TRAFFIC Court convictions on this
charge.
Asked yesterday for an opinion on
traffic conditions in Washington and
how to improve them, Judge Nelson
pointed to records to show how
speeders frequently violate other
traffic regulations. Among these he
listed running through stop signs
and red lights, driving on the wrong
side OF the street and failure to give
right of way.
Judge Nelson warned that fla
grant traffic offenders can expect
no leniency" in his court, adding:
If person violates the traffic laws,
he must be prepared to pay the
penalty
Regrets SIS Maximum.
Commenting on fines for speed
ing, Judge Nelson expressed regret
that the maximum fine that can be
imposed for first-offense speeding
is only s25, believing it should be
more where the speed has been ex-
cessive, such as go and 10 miles an
hour.
During the last five days in the
traffic branch of Police Court, where
Judge Nelson recently has been pre-
siding, l59 persons have been con-
victed Of exceeding speed limits.
Fines imposed for speeding alone,
during that period. totaled S1,857
The fines ranged from one of $50
and another of $40 for second
offenders, down to the minimum
fine of 81. There was only a single
fine, however, in the latter bracket
and it was given for a speed of 81
miles an hour.
OF the others there were two s35
fines for second offense; 6 fines of
s25; nine of $40; 80 of SIS; 72 of
$40. of 81 and 80 of IS.
Bearing out Judge Nelson's con-
tention, number of the speeders
also were convicted of other offenses,
particularly of passing stop signs
while speeding.
Urges Citizens to Cooperate,
During the five days Judge Neil-
son imposed a sentence of sl25 fine
or 80 days in Jail on a man for driv-
ing while drunk. His minimum fine
on the latter charge, he said. is
S100. Among other sentences i'm
posed by the jurist was S10O fine or
go days in jail for reckless driving,
the same defendant also receiving
an additional sentence of a $50 fine
or 80 days in Jail for driving with
out an operators permit. Another
defendant was sentenced to pay s1O0
or serve 80 days for reckless driving.
A number of $40 fines were imposed
by Judge Nelson for driving
through red lights.
Judge Nelson said he was con-
vinced the courts "are prepared to
throw the full weight of their influ-
ence behind the safety campaign"
and asserted:
"The business of traffic is a joint
venture on the part of individuals
and organizations, both private and
public, the paramount idea being
mutual cooperation. The various
law-enforcement agencies need the
help and cooperation of the public.
Neither the police nor the courts,
standing alone, can succeed. So, in
the interest of a more wholesome
traffic record this year, let us all
direct our efforts to end this mount
ing death toll"
