If we only knew what secrets she hid.
We could’ve helped and prayed she would

Petworth Citizen Group
Votes to Incorporate
The Petworth Citizens Associa

incorporation papers.
The motion, introduced by John
S. Hamill, treasurer, was passed
unanimously.
William F. Boardman of the Dis
trict Highway Department gave the
group an idea of what they may ex
pect if they motor out of the city
in the coming months. In a high
way survey planned for the District,
motorists entering and leaving
Washington may be stopped by po
lice on the main “feeder” highways
into town. The survey officials then
will take over and ask each motorist
his starting point and destination.
Officials also will visit District
homes to ask motorists where they
went the day before. Part of the
survey consists of a cross-section
census to investigate traffic inside
the city.
The association condemned the
action of the Zoning Commission in
refusing to allow property owners in
the 3700 block of New Hampshire
avene N.W. a hearing on their pe
tition to rezone the balance of that
block as first commercial.
The meeting was conducted by
