Stanton Park Citizens Ask
Action on Play Facilities

Stanton Park area residents COM
planned last night that their chill
dren have no place for recreation
and called upon District authorities
to remedy this condition, described
as "long-standing."
In a unanimous resolution the
Stanton Park Citizens Association
urged the Recreation Board to pro-
vide adequate playground facilities,
after members asserted their chill
dren were being driven OF the
streets" but had no place to 60.
Tracy T. Madden said police had
directed his children to the Stuart
Junior High School playground, but
that another policeman told them
they could not stay there.
No supervised recreation out of
school hours ever has been estab-
lished at Stuart, Harry N. Stull re-
ported, adding that children have
had nowhere to play in the area
for many years.
Opposition to the proposed re-
moval Of the present legal limitation
on liquor establishments in the
District also was voted in a resolu-
ton proposed by Mr.. Stull.

Debate Over Store.
A heated debate took place yes
terday over a proposal to rezone the
southeast corner Of Fourteenth and
Kennedy streets NV. from resi-
dental to commercial to allow the
building of a Safeway store. Robert
E. Lynch represented the store and
j. Austin Latimer served as attor-
ney for opponents.
Mr.. Lynch presented petition
signed by 885 persons favoring a
new Safeway store in the area. The
attorney presented a number Of res
idents of the neighborhood who
claimed that a store was badly
needed and Mrs. Margaret Joyce of
1882 Longfellow street NV. was
applauded when she praised the
Safeway for selling on the basis OF
first come, first served"
Opponents Of the store claimed 1t
would prove an opening wedge for
commercial extension on Fourteenth
street, would hurt the value of resi-
dental property and would add to
traffic. Citing plans for 100000
church, the Rev. N. M. Simmonds
of the Highlands Baptist Church

carried out as well in a commercial

@. How many persons Of foreign
birth are there in the United States?
j. ". D.
A. According to the 1910 census,
| IL 900 900 residents were born abroad
and $4,000, 900 had one or both par
ents born outside the United States.
@. Why did the Pueblo Indians
make their homes in cliffs?-E. l.. H.
A. Ages ago their ancestors found
in the sheer walls of the river
gorges a safe retreat from the fiercer
tribes around them. BY scooping
out the softer strata they were able
to fashion cavelike dwellings.
@. How many miles Of boundaries
existed between the countries OF
Europe at the beginning Of the war?
k. r. r.
A. In 1899 Europe had $500 miles
of boundary lines. Before the first
World War there were 1000 miles
Of national boundary lines, which
after the peace treaties were in
creased to 1900 miles.
@. What is the speed of the blood
in travelling through the human
body?-M. N. N.
A. According to MacDougalls and
Hegner's Biology, the blood circu-
lates through the body in from 20
to 80 seconds, or about three times
a minute. This means that in "a
hours it passes through the blood
vessels in all parts of the body from
5000 to 1000 times. Some routes
are shorter than others.
@. Does a private continue to re-
ceive his pay and allowances while
he is in a hospital?-L. A. T.
A. The War Department says that
a soldier of our Army hospitalized
for wounds or disease incurred in
line of duty receives full pay and
allowances. Any enlisted man alb
sent from regular duty for more
than one day on account OF the
effects of a disease which Is di-
rectly attributable to and immedi-
ately follows his own intemperate
use of alcoholic liquor or habit
forming drugs shall not be entitled
to any pay for the period of such
absence.
@. Has any Army officer the au-
thority to grant consent to the mar
riage of a minor who has not OBJ
tanned permission from his parents?
F. N. T.
A. The War Department says that
according to the Judge Advocate
Generals Office an Army officer
would have no authority to grant
consent to a minor in service to
marry without the consent of his
parent or guardian. Within the
States civil law would be followed.
@. Who received the first Army
serial number?-J. E. K.
A. The War Department says that
Arthur E. Cream received Army Sc
rial No. l on February %, 1913
Gen. John j. Pershing received
No. l Of the officers serial num-
bers. 1t would be impossible to as
certain which soldier was given
the first serial number in the pres
ent war. At the beginning of the
national emergency, serial numbers
for enlisted men Of the Army were
issued to the nine service COM
mands for suballotment to the va
rious induction centers.
