Thank God. relief may almost Instantly

that India of starvation. Accordingly, only
gifts of money are solicited.
What. then, shall do? What will YOU
do? In the famine districts are charita BILE
relief agencies. efficient, trustworthy, eco
ncnical They need larger supplies. Surely
such supplies can be provided. and yet the
customary gifts to long-establshed agen-
cies for the uplifting of the people of India
not be at all lessened.
Meanwhile, the government of India has
organized relief on a scale unapproac hed in

sufferers officially aided is not less than

it. Every expressed wish of donors will

needed just now. In the hot dry season
people can live and sleep with but little
clothing. but when the rains come, and

IN INTEREST OF ORDER.
Chief of Police Asks Cooperation for
Suppression of Lawlessness.

Major Sylvester has made a move in the
direction of correcting some Of the evils
that exist in Prince Georges county, just
across the line, near the eastern terminus of
the Columbia electric road. The tracks of
this road stop within few feet of the Dis
trict line at Chesapeake Beach junction,
when passengers for the bay resort are
transferred. The conditions which are rem
dered possible by the presence of the drink
ing places just over the line have been COM
planned of a number of times.
A number of rows have occurred there
since these places opened, and Major Syl-
vester has now detailed officers on this side
of the line. Yesterday four detectives were
sent out there, and, while they saw nothing
wrong in the District, they witnessed and
heard of some disgraceful scenes on the
Maryland side.
Only few days ago there was case
tried in the Police Court which showed
something of the conduct that is carried on
out there. 1t was shown that young girls
who went to the place were furnished beer
and were permitted to dance on the pavilion
in the Columbia Pleasure Garden. While
it was denied that any of them became in
toxicated, it was shown that one of them
participated in a disorderly scene, during
which blows were passed.
Major Sylvester addressed letter to
obdtc 3Ailolley V" NJ LeWfH OIL fTlnce
Georges county few days ago, calling his
attention to the condition of affairs about
the District line. The letter reads:
The police authorities of the District of
Columbia are endeavoring to maintain order
at Deanwood station, the terminus of the
Chesapeake Beach railroad, where the pas
sengers for the District of Columbia make
a change of cars, but the disorderly persons
take advantage of the nearness of your
county line in order to evade arrest. and the
police are experiencing considerable diff
Guilty in that respect.
If within your power, I have to request
that your county will make such provision
as Will put an end to any and all disorder
in that locality so far as your side of the
jurisdiction is concerned. Your cooperation
in this matter will be fully appreciated not
only by this department but by the public
generally, who on Sundays especially pa
tronize this railroad"
After receiving the letter States Attorney
levin called on Major Sylvester and as
sured him that he would as far as the law
permits, aid in an effort to correct the con-
dition of affairs there
Major Sylvester suggested that the sheriff
might send three or four firm men there
and with their assistance he thought the
District policemen would be able to keep
away bad characters and maintain order so
that Chesapeake Beach passengers and
others would not be annoyed Then. too.
the united efforts of the officers might be
the means of saving some of the young
girls who have been frequenting at least
one of the drinking places and being served
strong drink.
