WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. S.-Mr
Herman Robinson, representing the

before the House Committee on Marine
and Fisheries to submit arguments in

relating to the complement of the
crews of vessels. 1t provides that no

part from any port unless she have n
her service a full complement of licen-
sed officers and full and we'll dis
ciplined crew, including watchmen. 1t
1t also provides that, excepting steam

NEW AMBULANCE FOR THE ARMY
WILL BE MOTOR WAGONS USED
NOW FOR THE MEDICAL
DEPARTMENT.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. Sit
was stated today on good authority
that the war department would proba-
bly, buy several motor ambulances. A
vehicle of this type was recently pur-
chased from an Ohio concern and has
been subjected to trials by the medi-
cal department Of the army. The Off
GERS have pronounced the ambulance
of great value, although they are ri
the opinion that some changes in the
arrangement and equipment of the
vehicles should be made 1t is under
stood that these ambulances will be
used in the field and, in case of a war
will be attached to every brigade hos
pital. One of the principal advant-
ages Of these vehicles is their speed
and the fact that they do not require
horses. 1t is admitted, however, tina,
there will probably be always time
and places wnen the auto-ambulance
will not be able to take the place u
the ambulance drown by horses. The
medical officers who have been ex-
aiming the motor ambulances sa,
that there will be no great difficulty il
making the required change in the
ambulances.

is always placed conveniently at hand,
and examine the trousseau. If the suit

quality Of the dowry he makes for

If. on the contrary, the trousseau does
