Citizens Association
10Th Anniversary
Dedicated 10 Star

Expressing belief that the Dis
trict of Columbia was gaining in its
struggle for national representation,
Jesse Suter. writer of civic affairs for
The Star, last night spoke to men,
bers Of the Dahlgren Terrace Citi-
zens' Association on the occasion of
the goth anniversary of the found
ing Of the organization.
The meeting was dedicated to The
Star for its longtime reliability"
and extensive coverage of civic af-
fairs.
Mr.. Suter. explaining why he be-
lieved national representation for
the District was closer at hand, de-
clared the struggle had been aided
by the question of giving soldiers
overseas the chance to cast ballot
in the coming election"
Points to 91-Year Policy.
Brief1ng the story of The Stars
policy of the championship of civic
organizations, Mr.. Suter read the
Prospectus" published in the first
issue of the paper December 16,
1852, which stated that the publi-
cation would be devoted specifically
to local interests" of the city.
'The Star" he declared, has con-
tinued through 81 years to cleave
close to the lines laid down in the
original prospectus"
Present at the meeting were sew
eral charter members and former
presidents of the group, including
the first president, DR.. Lewis Rad
cliffe, who urged members to fight
against the proposed building of
several dams to raise the water level
of the Potomac River.
They claim that the dams would
provide greater power and flood
control" he declared, but the two
just don't 60 together" The Dis
trlct, he continued, has one of the
lowest power rates in the country
so there is no need for greater
power.
Suggests Moves for Groups.
Andrew F. E. Scheer, lauded as
one OF the organizations most ac-
tive presidents, told the group that
an association dies because it
doesn't have work to do" He sug-
gested as possible campaigns for
the organization in the coming year
the abolishment of the tire and car
inspection because it wastes pre-
cious gas and there aren't enough
cars on the road anyway: no more
taxes for parks because the District
is already park poor" the estab- /

lishment OF a District sales tax and
the organization Of District liquor
stores with restricted sale.
Mrs. Margaret NOVEL; of the
Women,s Page of The Star, also a
guest speaker at the meeting, ex-
planned the workings Of the page
and urged members not to hesitate
to use their service to answer any
question Of home management they
might have.
William H. Lauers, president of
the association. presided at the
meeting which was held at the
Crosby S. Noyes School, named in
honor of the former editor of The
Star. He proposed that the asso-
citation plan for its program in the
coming year the establishment of a
recreation center in the vacant lot
