Pedestrian Protection
As Well as Control
Urged by Group
Takoma Park Citizens
Told Cross-Town
Bus Considered
Enforcement of existing traffic
regulations, with protection as well
as regulation of pedestrians, was
urged last night by the Takoma
Park (D. C.-Md.t Citizens’ Associa
tion meeting in the Takoma Public
Library.
Secretary Walter Irey introduced
the joint issues in a resolution after
stressing the necessity for reforming
both motor and pedestrian traffic.
The association opposed legislation
to pyramid taxes on chain stores
after speakers had given their views
on the advantages of this type of
merchandising.
The Capital Transit Co. informed
the association that its request for
a cross-town bus line from Catholic
University to American University,
> i .11 ————
with the east-west route via Mili
tary road, was receiving considera
tion.
Mrs. Mary Lamond White, acting
president, presented a resolution
from the Library Committee favor
ing the extension of the community
library plan instead of a large cen
tral library, as proposed in the down
town section of the city. She con
tended regional libraries would prove
more accessible and therefore would
be better patronized. The resolution
was adopted.
Dr. Guy Clinton informed the as
sociation he would not be present
at the meetings this winter owing to
his health.
Lawrence E. Gichner spoke on be
half of the Community Chest.
The District Commisisoners were
commended for plans to locate the
Wilson Training College on the site
of the old Tuberculosis Hospital at
Fourteenth and Upshur streets N.W.

A Life Saver
Air transport often saves lives in
the far North. Quick supplies of
medicines and food to snow-bound
natives, the picking up of marooned
explorers, or supplying the wants of
isolated parties hemmed in by huge
ice floes and water, the carrying of
the sick to distant hospitals, are
some of its errands of mercy in
saving many lives.
Right to Sue C. 1.0.
In District Court
Upheld in Opinion
Justice Bailey Denies
Unincorporation
Wards Off Suits '
The Committee for Industrial Or
ganization. being national in charac
ter, is subject to suit in District
Court here in its common name,
Justice Jennings Bailey said yester
day in a written opinion.
Justice Bailey overruled a motion
to quash service and vacate the
marshal’s return, presented by coun
sel for the C. I. O. and the United
Office and Professional Workers of
America, who had contended that'
being unincorporated, they could not
be sued in their own name.
The justice held, however, that.
Inasmuch as it was not shown that
John L. Lewis is an agent or officer
of the United Office and Professional
Workers of America, in New York
City, “the service on him as such
agent will be quashed.”
The case arose out of a $1,000,000
damage suit brought by the National
Association of Industrial Insurance
Agents, Fifteenth and H streets
N.W., against the C. I. O. and the
United Office and Professional
Workers of America. The associa
tion claimed, among other things,
that the defendants had contended
it was a company union and had
prevented it from securing addi
tional members because of the al
leged derogatory remarks made
about the organization.
The defendants had argued that
Mr. Lewis, designated in the mar
shal’s return of service as president
of the United Office and Professional
Workers of America, had never been,
or is he now, president of that or
ganization.
