Nicely Hits Lethargy
OF Washingtonians in
Fight for Suffrage

A whitening attack on the leth-
argy" of Washingtonians in the
fight for suffrage was leveled last
night by Chairman Neely Of the
Senate District Committee.
Unless you throw off this leth-
argy," Senator Neely declared
you're going to be voteless except
by charity on Capitol Hill from
now on" He addressed dis
trict of Columbia Night" meeting
of the District Bar Association in
the Mayf1ower Hotel.
DiSdaining the microphone, the
white-haired West Virginia legis-
lator stepped down from the stage
where the honored District Off
cialS were seated, and spoke from
the floor.
Asks National Representation.
Senator Neely has introduced
a resolution. now pending in
the Senate Judiciary Committee
which proposes a Constitutional
amendment giving the District ma
tlonal representation.
He prefaced his remarks with
two quotations from Shakespeare
and a statement that he under
stood chow unpopular it is to try
to accomplish almost anything in
the District of Columbia"
IF you're not sufficiently in
terested in yourselves" he told
the several hundred lawyers
present, Tets do something for
your children"
Senator Nicely interposed the
comment that, following a state
ment in favor of transferring
Central High School to colored
students, he had received 800
maligning letters and postcards
some bearing "unprintable, un-
lawful words"
ID. c. Greatest City"
He is sometimes told, the Sena-
tor declared, that in the District
one must not discuss the race
issue, education or home rule"
Calling Washington "the great
est of all great cities of the
World" Senator Neely said it
can't be made "a model city of
the world" with "disenfranchised
men and women"
Il hope I may live to see the
day." said Senator Neely, when
you have two United States Sena-
tors, and Representatives accord

This and That
BY Charles (: TroceweH

unusually large number Of birds have
flocked to the city seeking food.
Some residents reported feeding hocks
consisting of hundreds Of robins, which
appeared hardest hit by the wintry con-
ditions gripping the province,
Birds appeared to be in better condi-
ton following days feeding"
Robins, migratory sparrows and star
lings were the birds most in need of food.
In the Washington area the white
throated sparrows and the white-breast-
ed sparrows seldom need feeding, but
on occasion little food Is welcomed by
the robins.
Starlings always are able to care for
themselves.
Robins came to Washington and vicin-
ity from January on, with most Of them,
Of course, arriving in March.
They always like few raisinS.
If the area is to have a drought,
raisins make good supplemental food for
robins, cardinals. thrushes, mockingbirds,
catbirds, etc.
The list of raisin-eaters comprises
some Of our very finest species.
They all Use insects to feed their
young, but all like raisins for themselves.
1t is good thing to get the home
birds used to looking for food in one
particular place.
II this feeding is kept up for year or
more, the same migratory species will
come back year after year.

Robert of Roberts S Rules

Many an oldtime Washingtonian must re-
member the author of Roberts Rules of Order
whose widow presented the original working
copy of that popular parliamentary guide to
the Library of Congress the other day.
Brigader General Henry Martyr Robert was
Engineer Commissioner of the District in 1890
and 1891 Thirty years earlier he had been one
of the defenders of the Capital during the War
Between the States. He was native of South
Carolina, educated at West Point and teacher
of military science there prior to 1853 Before
coming to Washington following the attack on
Fort Sumter he had been engaged in operations
against the Indians in the Far Northwest and
had been involved in fortifying San Juan Island
In Puget Sound during the boundary difficulties
with England.
Northern Strategists figured that the forces
OF the Confederacy would try to occupy WASH
ington and they meant to hold the city against
attack as long as possible. Robert, widely known
as builder. was natural choice to help in the
protection of the District. Later he was sent to
Philadelphia and to New Bedford Massachusetts,,
on similar business. Then, after Lees surrender,
he went back to West Point as treasurer and
professor of military engineering. Harbor and
river Improvements kept him occupied until he
was made Engineer Commissioner here.

Junior High inequalities

While was reading about the gradua-
tion dates scheduled for the public
schools. I was greatly alarmed to dis
cover that there are at present thirteen
white Junior high schools in divisions /
to 8. while in the Negro divisions there
are only eight. This is indeed true evi-
dence of the fallacy of the separate-but-
equal dual school system in the District
From enrolment statistics compiled by
B. L. Bristor as of September 80, 1850. in
The Evening STAR it was found that there
were 9.486 Junior high school students in
divisions to while in divisions 10 to
13 there were 1854 students. Although
the Negro junior high schools students
are in the majority. they have five
buildings less than divisions to 9.
In the southeast section of Washing
ton there is no Negro junior high school,
If the members of the Board of Edu-
cation profess to extend and provide
equal educational facilities to Negro
students, then I maintain that they
should transfer two Junior high school
buildings from divisions to 8 to di-
visions 10 to 13.
Let us hope that this wide discrepancy
will be alleviated as soon as possible, so
that another Central or Browne catas-
trophe may be prevented.

These invariably go to the selected
spot where they formerly received food.
1t cannot be called real memory, but
1t has the same effect. That is, the birds
have no recollection until they get into
the old garden, but the moment they do
they have their recollections logged.
The old feeding spot is recognized.
The birds perch nearby, and look for
the handouts to appear.
If the raisins or other foods are there
they drop down instantly. II not, they
may manifest their desire by cries, or
even by flying to window to rap against
the pane.
This Is one Of the real joys Of home
bird feeding-to recognize the old friends,
and to realize that they. In their turn,
recognize you.
In addition to raisins, foods to put out
for robins. to supplement their earth
worm diet, are doughnuts. bread dipped
in water. even cake. Sometimes they
appreciate an apple cut in half.
The raisin supplement is In addition,
Of course. to the regular Offering of mixed
seeds and grains in the formal bird
feeding station.
The two places should not be close
together. but some distance apart. It is
always good thing to see that the bird
bath Is kept filled with water. This might
seem elementary, but it is a sad fact that
too often bird baths are neglected, espe-
cially In dry season.

Ending the Bridge Feud

1t is welcome news that basis has been
reached for settlement of the regrettable feud
among official agencies over location of a new
bridge over the Anacostia River. The National
Capital Park and Planning Commission and the
National Park Service have shown good judg-
ment in withdrawing their opposition to the
East Capitol street site, provided that the Com
missioners restudy the question of the approaches
The planners and the park officials are under
standably concerned over their East Capitol
development program The District Commission
ers should cooperate in every feasible way to
avert serious interference with the long-range
plans for a sports center and other recreational
facilities near the end of East Capitol street.
District authorities have contended all along
that the bridge would not adversely affect the
extensive East Capitol Plaza improvement pro-
gram The decision of the Park and Planning
Commission to abandon its stand against the
East Capitol route for the bridge indicates an
appreciation of the need for making reasonable
concessions to the changing traffic demands of
the growing residential communities across the
Anacostia. In the same way, District officials
have an obligation to make reasonable conces-
sions in the interest of preserving as much of
the original park plan as possible.

Robins hereabout have had compar-
atively easy time of it since they came
in. but what of those that went on North?
r. B. M. of Spencerville. Md. answers
this by sending in clipping from Hal
flax. Nova Scotia, paper, which reads
as follows:
Organized distribution of food for
thousands of hungry robins and migra-
tory SparrowS began yesterday, following
an appeal by the Halifax Fish and Game
Association.
Large cartons of stale bread, donated
by Halifax bakeries. were distributed by
Point Pleasant park employees. while a
team of three members Of the fish and
game society distributed more bread in
the Marlboro woods area.
Halifax families also threw their sup
port into the campaign to feed the hun
cry birds, spreading scraps and crumbs
to the large f1ocks Of robins that descend
ed upon their yards.
THE campaign was general through
out the province, particularly in the
Annapolis Valley, where farmers gave
fruit
Farmers throughout the province
were asked to spread the sweepings from
their barns and hay mows. and if pos
sible to scatter some grain for early
arrivals.
People were asked to continue to feed
until conditions return to normal. An

Potomac Bridges

noted with great deal of satisfac-
,tion your editorial Of last week relating
to the bridge situation across the Poto-
mac adjacent to Washington. From my
experience crossing some of the bridges
twice daily, this situation is little short
of national disgrace and is a very poor
advertisement for this great city.
AS you have suggested, bridge should
Immediately be constructed several miles
down the river so that the traffic from

could bypass Washington. Plans should
be made. as you suggested, for the i'm

can be replaced with new bridge.

situation every time they cross the river

home in the afternoon. This condition
will continue to exist until enough pub
licity is brought to bear on the members
OF Congress to ameliorate it. Our Nation
seems to be able to spend millions to
dredge rivers for few hundred thousand
dollars worth of traffic, yet it cannot
afford the price of a couple of bridges

Senator'S Provocution
A. l..

I cannot disagree very strongly with
your recent editorial entitled Madness
is the Word" but one must consider
also the provocation the Senators have
been under in this Mccarthy business.
One cannot just ignore the attitude of
the President and the State Department
whenever any question is raised with
respect to personnel. The Department.
with the full approval of the President,
more or less thumbs its nose at Congress
until Congress turns up something
rotten.
If, when the charges were first made.
the executive branch of the Government
adopted cooperative attitude and sat
down with the committee to review the
evidence, offering to produce all infor-
nation bearing on the individuals con-
cerned that would not give up state
secrets, the story would doubtless be diff
ferent. Instead, they shout to the
housetops, as they did in the Hiss case,
that the charges are untrue before they
had seen any of the evidence.
The Star is truly liberal newspaper,
as distinguished from a noisy and far
too numerous section of the press that
unctuously usurps that title to itself.
I. with many others, hope you will not
lose your equilibrium over these rather
discouraging disagreements between diff
ferent branches of the Government.

Meanwhile, he published the first edition Of
his Rules in 1859. It met general need, and
subsequent printings eventually passed the mil
lion mark. The author revised the text in 1915
and wrote supplementary book, Parliamentary
Practices" in 1921 and still another "Parlia-
mentary Law" in 1922 He also drew up a system
of blanks long used in Baptist conventions and
other meetings to simplify procedure. Retiring
from the Army in 1901, he continued to practice
engineering until his death on May II, 1928.
His biographer says of him: HE was a gentle
man of the old school . and was beloved by his
subordinates as well as by his equals senti-
ment which certainly reflects the spirit manifest
in his Rules as guide to fair play.

FederdI Payment to District

The session of the House Of Rep
resentatives on April 10, when a small
attendance voted by q narrow margin
to reduce the Federal payment toward
the expenses of the District, brought
forth number of statements to which
we may well take exception. May I
quote just two of them from the Con-
gressional Record and comment upon
them with the help of question marks?
Fortunately some of the others were
ably answered by our friends in the
House who were familiar with the facts
brought out when our latest District
tax law was being worked out.
Representative John Taber, ranking
minority member of the Appropriations
Committee: There is not very much
more exempt property in proportion to
the total here in the District than there
is in most of our own districts"
May we not reasonably expect Mr..
Taber to give us the figures of the prop
erty tax-exempt for Federal and State
reasons in his district in Western New
York, or at least one district somewhere
that illustrates his statement? I don't
know of any such. although there are
some smaller communities which are so
largely government-owned as to call
for payments in lieu of taxes, in order
that community services may go forward
in spite of the reduced taxable area
Representative Fred L. Crawford of
Michigan: II write to the people of my
district and tell them very emphatically
that If the people of the District Of Co
lumbia want home rule. they should as
sumo all of the burdens and pay the
bills of the District just like the people
out in my State"
We may wonder If Mr.. Crawford also
tells his constituents in the city of
Saginaw. for instance. that they should
not expect the major industries of their
city to pay any taxes. or else should give
up their local voting rights to be-
nevolent despotism in return for the
tax largess received from those indus
tries.
If not, why does he. in effect, tell his
constituents that Washingtonians should
meekly regard themselves as having sold
their rights of self-rule to their city's
one big industry. the Federal Govern
