Beckham, 71, former Democratic
Governor of Kentucky and United
States Senator, died here early today.
Mr. Beckham, then Lieutenant
Governor, became Governor in 1900
after the assassination of William
Goebel.
The veteran political leader and
lawyer, ill since a stroke of paralysis
last August, was a leading figure in
Kentucky political history nearly a
half century, beginning with his elec
tion over his own protests as a State
representative when he was 24.
He was elected to the United States
Senate in 1914 and served one term.
In recent years he tried in vain to
win election again for both the gov
ernorship and the Senate.
His most recent office was that of
chairman of the State Public Service
Commission.
Mr. Beckham actively supported
Gov. (now Senator) A. B. Chandler
in 1938 in his unsuccessful effort to
win the senatorial nomination from
Senate Majority Leader Barkley,
backed by President Roosevelt. Mr.
Chandler went to the Senate last
fall to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Logan, also
, a Democrat.
v_iu v. \jucuci waa aaaa^umtcu ui
January, 1900, while en route to a
joint legislative session while he and
the Republican nominee, W. S.
Taylor, both were claiming election.
His slayer never was identified.
Mr. Taylor assumed office armed
with a certificate of election which
Mr. Goebel refused to recognize. The
Legislature declared Mr. Goebel
elected.
Frankfort, the State capital, was
an armed camp for six months.
Mr. Beckham, declared Gov
ernor by the Legislature after Mr.
Goebel’s death, set up office in a
hotel. Mr. Taylor stayed in the
capitol. Both were surrounded by
troops.
In May, Mr. Taylor left office after
the United States Supreme Court
ruled the Legislature acted within
its rights in ousting him.

Citizens' Association Told
Playground Fight Won
Several years of effort by the
Congress Heights Progressive Citi
zens’ Association for a playground
have been rewarded by success,
members of the association were told
by Dr. Edward E. Richardson at
meeting last night.
Dr. Richardson said four acres
on Alabama avenue between Randel
place and Seventh street S.E. had
been approved as the site and that
"work probably would begin in the
early spring."
Claiming that the District ruling
which declares participants in high
school sports ineligible for other
teams outside the school is “unfair,"
Milton I. Lewis, guest speaker of
the evening, argued that there is
no necessity for such ruling, and it
should be changed. An example
given by Mr. Lewis was the case
of the American Legion junior base
ball teams, which, he said, are not
allowed to use players who wish to
be members of the school team. His
appeal was for citizens’ associations
to join in an attempt to bring about
a new ruling.
Lt. John W. McGinness of No. 11
police precinct told the association
that although four streets have been
designated for sledding, there are.
not enough policemen in the pre
cinct to allow for the maximum
protection that is required by law
and so must refrain from roping
off all these sections. This problem
may be solved by the loaning of
private or public owned property
where uniformed protection will not
be obligatory, he said.
Objectives for the coming meet
ings were outlined as follows: A
branch bank, establishing of a
branch horary, a new post office, the
paving of Fifth and Tenth streets
S.E. and the building of South Capi
tol Street Bridge.
The meeting was held in the Con
gress Heights School. \
Survey of Water Front
Backed by Association
Members of the I^ark View Citi
zens 'Association last night indorsed
a motion by Fred S. Walker that the
Federation of Citizens’ Association
support the Board of Trade s plan
for a survey of the waterfront of the
District of Columbia.
Mr. Walker sated that the survey
would embrace the entire water
front and would offer a permanent
plan for commercializing certain
areas, while converting other sec
tions into parks and playgrounds.
A request from the Piney Branch
Citizens’ Association asking support
in their request to the Federation of
Citizens’ Associations that a com
mittee be apopinted to straighten
out the Hampshire Citizens’ Associ
ation boundary rights was approved.
The treasurer read a brief financial
statement and asked authorization
to pay a bill from the lawyer for the
association.
Payment of the bill was approved.
The meeting was held in the Park
View School. Election of officer*
was postponed. j
