Council Avoids Stand
On Naming Board
Jhe North Washington Council!
®f'Citizens' Associations is not
going to take a stand on the issue
of who should appoint members of
the Board of Education when that
question comes up at the hearing
on the Commissioners’ reorganiza
tion plan on December 21.
The group, meeting last night,
was urged to oppose putting ap
pointments in the hands of the
Commissioners as opening the way
to “the rankest kind of politics.”
But other members of the council
argued that "the situation couldn’t
be any worse” than it is now. with
District judges making appoint
ments.
The council was agreed, how
ever, in its opposition to other
provisions of the reorganization
plan. At the hearing, it will re
commend that:
1. me Recreation ana Liorary
Boards should remain separate
from the Commissioners’ control.
2. The upkeep of such institu
tions as the Zoo and National
parks should be a Federal, and not
a District, expense.
3. Title to property purchased
with District funds should be
transferred to the District, along
with its control.
Earlier, the group heard Traffic
Director George E. Keneipp and
Assistant Director Wallace Braun
outline a plan for fringe parking
costing no more than 10 cents a
day per car to relieve downtown
congestion. Mr. Keneipp also told
his hearers the only thing pre
venting the police from hauling
away more cars illegally parked
during peak hours is the limited
impounding space.
John M. Connaughton, presi
dent. conducted the meeting in
the Sixth Precinct station house.

New Ships, New Schedules Make Possible
19 Day Custom-Made Mediterranean Cruises
X have a plan that Is only slightly !
larcenous. All you have to steal is
three weeks. During those three
weeks you can cruise your way to
the Mediterranean, collapse under
m palm along the Riviera and
cruise your
way back to
New York
again on
your Medi
terranean
Sun-Liner.
These new
Sun-Lane
excursions to
the warm side
of Europe will
soon be pos
Bible because, come January nrst,
the schedules of the two great new
6un-Liners, the Independence and
Constitution, are to be reshuffled.
Add these new, speedier schedules
to liberal stopover privileges at
Mediterranean ports and you can
Bee how the plan works.
6 Days to Gibraltar
Por example, six days out of
New York along the Sun-Lane will
bring you to Gibraltar. You can
spend the next seven days touring
thu milder climes of Spain, South
ern France, or even Spanish and
French Morocco. Loaded with sou
venirs, a suntan and a sackful of
experiences, you can rejoin your
ship at Gibraltar again and set
tle down to the sheer enjoyment
of a pleasant six-day sail home.
Cannes in 8 Days
Or, try it this way: Sleep, eat
and dance your way to Cannes in
eight days. Spend three to five
days sun-tamiing on the beach,
visiting the elegant Winter Casino
at Cannes, shopping the flower
market at Nice and breaking the
bank at Monte Carlo—all nearby.
Poke around among the orange
and olive groves of the Italian
Riviera and board the ship at
Genoa. Or from Cannes, play
through Spain and board at Gi
braltar. Those who just can’t bear
to miss a single minute of ship
board life can make it one grand
cruise, lazing along through the
Mediterranean with the ship as
it puts into Gibraltar, Cannes,
Genoa and Naples.
Any really accomplished larcen
ist who can steal slightly more
than three weeks can. sail on one
of the completely air conditioned
Sun-Liners and return on the
other, stretching the touring time
in Europe to a fat fifteen days.
Less Than S Weeks
If you have three weeks’ vaca
tion time this winter, your travel
agent can work out a custom-built ]
vacation, just for you. And in spite
of the distance, the glamour and
the foreign labels, your Sun-Liner
trip to the Continent this winter
will cost no more than an ordi
nary cruise of the same duration.
The Sun-Lane to Europe is the
route of the calmer sea and the
bluer sky. Dusty, 100-year weather
records show that the Sun-Lane
from New York to the Mediter
ranean averages 18 per cent higher
temperature and 57 per cent rain
free days.
See Your Travel Agent
The American Export fleet also
includes the Four Aces, a quartet
of air conditioned, one-class
Cruise liners leaving New York
every other Friday bound for
France, Italy, Egypt, Lebanon,
Syria, Turkey, Greece and Spain
and returning to New York via
Boston. See your travel agent or
