Great Interest in centered In this

OLD PARTIES WILL
BE WIPED OUT BY
VOTERS, HE DECLARES
Illinois. Politician Believes
Spirit of Independence
Means Revolution.
Predicting that the old parties w(ll soon
be wiped out as a result of the present
campaign, Oscar W. Powell, former
membtr of the Illinois legislature, Is at
present In Washington reviewing the
Eastern political situation. He telieves
that the increasing Independence of
American voters spells the doom of the
parties aa at present constituted.
That a bloodless and noiseless political
revolution now going on is the belief of
Mr. Powell.
"It used to be that practically all men
wore aligned with one party or the
other, and voted for the party candi
date no matter who he was," continued
Mr. Powell. "The change from this
Idea Is one of the most significant evo
lutions now taking place In the United
States, In my opinion. It means that
In the future candidates for office must
go beforo the people entirely on their
merits.
"There are thousands ot men new
who oponly admit that they will not
vote the same way this year as they
did fpur years ago. There aro changes
In all parties. Tho significant thing
dbout it Is that they were not ashamed
to say they will bolt their party ticket.
"it used to be that tho man who
snitched In an election was spoken of
contemptuously. Now, however, the
candidates themselves realise this con
dition, and openly oik the votes of men
of all parties,"

MILWAUKEE GETS ;
BIG MOTOR RAGES
FOR ANOTHER YEAR
Rules for Road Construction
Will Be Urged to Reduce
Danger to Drivers.
By HARRY WARD.
Despite. the unfavorable conditions atJ
tending the running of the Vanderbllt
Cup and Grand Prise autpmobllo race
at Milwaukee last week, the Wisconsin
metropolis will get the two contests
again next year. The races will be run
earlier next year. In order to avpld In
clement weather, and It Is likely a bet
ter course will, be selected.
The Motor Cups Holding Company, a
corporation organised to hold tho racing
trophies wherever the races aro held,
gavo the contests to tho Milwaukee pro
moters for three successive years, sub
ject to the acceptance of tho Milwaukee
organisation. Sanction was 'obtained
from the Automobile Club of America
and the American- Automobile Associa
tion. x
Before aay mora road races are held
It Is expected the "Three A's" will
be asked to promulgate rules regard
ing road construction as -a result of
the death of David nnjee-Hrowii and
.the serious Injury of Ralph De Palma
at tne jtiuwauKee races last week, it
Is understood the racing drivers' organi
sation will ask the contest board of
the "Threfl A's" to draft rules eovern-
Ing the minimum width, maximum height
ot crown, ana tne aliening or roaas
to which a race sanction Is given.
The Vanderbllt course was resurfaced,
the drivers declare, without removal of
the old surface, and aa a result the
roadway had a high1 crown, which pre
vented possibility of even traction when
ever two cars were abreast or one
car passed another. Such n condition
on a comparatively narrow roadway, the
drivers contend, waa bound to result
In accidents, and accounted for the
alow time made In the races.

SWIMMING LESSONS
INPUBUGSCHOOLS
ARE RECOMMENDED
Inspector ' of Plumbing
Would Have Course for
All Pupils.
Swimming lessons will be Included' In.
the curriculum of the publd schools, If
the recommendation of A. R. MoCone
gal, Inspector of plumbing, In his an
nual report submitted to the Commis
sioners today, Is adopted.
"Young men and women, educated at
tho expense of the District 'Should be
saved to become a business asset of
tho dt, but many of them come to an
untimely end because of the Isck of
knowledge as to the proper caro of
themselves In the water," says the re
port. "This knowledge could be Im
parted by the District at small cost per
pupil,
"After the construction of the pools
at central points for both white and
colored pupils, the cost of maintenance
would be small. One half-hour a week
during one school term would be more
than sufficient to fit the average child
to not only protect Itself In the water
but to save others If need be;"
Tho establishment of public baths,
with public laundries attached In con
gested centers, again Is recommended by
Mr. McOonegal.
Attention la directed to the tteed or
additional public convenience stations
at certain of the congested points In
the business district, such as Ninth and
F streets northwest; Fifteenth stieet
and New York avenue northwest; Thirty-second
and M streets, northwest, and
at the Peace" Monument. It Is desirable,
also, saya the report, that smaller sta
tions he established at the Aqueduct
bridge, Calvert street bridge. Seventh
street and Florida avenue northwest.
Fifteenth and II streets northeast, and
several locations In or near Rock Creek
Park,
The cost of the larger stations Is
estimated at t!0,ooo each. It la recom
mended that the Commissioners adopt a
definite policy of adding ono station
each year to the present .equipment,
which consists or a station at Pennsyl
vania avenue and Seventh street north
west. Thirteen-and-a-half atreet and
Pennsylvania avenue northwest, and
Ninth and K streets northwest.
Automobile Found.
The automobile of Frank White,
which was stolen Saturday evening
from Fifteenth and O streets north
