TAKE NO FURTHER ACTION
Commissioners Discontinue Efforts
as to r. r. Siding at Navy Yard.


That the board OF Commissioners will
not take any further steps In the matter
of the railroad siding running into the
navy yard, which siding has been de-
clared q nuisance and a menace to pub
lie safety by citizens living in the south
east section of the city. was announced at
the District building today. The effort
to retain this siding was undertaken by
the Commissioners in response to the ap-
peal OF the Navy Department In order
that the yard might not be made inacces-
sible by reason of the removal of the rail-
road tracks.
In the hearing on the matter before the
Senate committee on the District o. Co.
lumbia a few weeks ago it was shown
that the original bill was sent to the SEN
ate committee by the Navy Department
This bill when presented to the District
Commissioners for report was indefinite
as to the length of time during which the
tracks mentioned would be permitted ia
remain. The Commissioners declared that
they would not approve OF an indefinite
extension of time. but that a definite time
should be fixed during which the tracks
should be allowed to remain. The bill was
then modified so as to include q Limitation
of two years.
Commissioners, Morrow, who represented
the Commissioners at the hearing, ex-
plained that the work Of the elimination
of grade crossings would involve the i'm
mediate removal OF the tracks into the
navy yard, but that the removal of the
tracks would deprive the navy yard of its
only railroad connection. 1t was shown
that the District Commissioners had no
interest whatever in the measure and
only gave their consent to allowing the
siding to remain because 1t was deemed
lo1 FIJI hn
this railroad connection.
Members Of the House District commit
tee say that when the bill was before
them quite q number of employees OF the
navy yard made statements to the effect
that unless the siding was allowed to re-
main the work at the navy yard would
cease and they would be thrown out OF
employment.

PRAISE FOR WOMEN.
Presidents Speech to Florence Crit
tenton Mission Delegates.

Copies Of the speech of President Rocse-
welt yesterday to the delegates to the
twenty fifth anniversary Of the National
Florence Crittenton mission were given
out today. 1t is as follows:
II wish you Godspeed In the work you
are doing. OF course, 1t is both easy and
ruinous to approach such a work in a
spirit Of mawkish sentimentality: but this
is a pitfail which know you avoid. You
are stretching hand to those who. sof all
others, require in their mortal need Sust
the help that you give them. OF course.
you cannot help the incurably bad-those
who 70 astray because they are vicious.
who are naturally foul and evil; aud you
cannot help any one by blinking the fact
that sin Ia sin and the stain indelible on
earth; but you can and do help those
whom 1t Is possible to raise.
The things that are vital in our lives
are not the things that We public men or
dinarily discuss and treat of. but the inti-
mate things of the home. the things that
have to do with the character of the in
dividual man or woman. In trying to
save the woman who can be saved you
are also teaching much-needed lesson to
the man: for surely 1t is his duty to be
clean and decent of life. just as it is his
duty to be brave and strong. We should
despise the vicious man. whatever form
his viciousness takes. even more than the
coward and the weaklins: though con-
versely we should never cease insisting
upon the fact that no good man can make
his goodness amount to anything unless
he IL strong and brave also. unless he pos
sesses both moral courage and physical
courage, for both are necessary. Surely
the brave man of clear sight and upright
soul must abhor that other man who is
brutal toward women. who fails to show
them respect and reverence, who fails to
be gentle and loyal IN kis dealings with
them.
men than to women because know men
better and think they need the teaching
more. for / respect the woman who is a
good wife and mother, and who shirks
none of her duties In either capacity,
more than / do any man."

OUTPUT OF BINDERY
SUPT. FRANK REPLIES TO CRIT
IcIsM OF REPORT.

The controversy over the output OF the
bindery 81 the government printing Office
was given consideration by the Central
Labor Union at its meeting last evening
Delegate James L.. Feeney. who is pres.
ident Of the Bookbinders' Union, criticised
Supt. Peter, Frank of the bindery.
Mr.. Feeney deciared that Supt. Frank
in stating. that the bindery had turned
out more work since 500 binders were laid
of than when the division was running
with full: force had reflected discredit on
the men laid OF.
Mr. Frank. speaking today regarding
the criticism OF his report to- Chairman
Tawney on the increased output OF the
government bindery. said:
II deeply regret that my report, which
il absolutely correct, should have opened
such a field Of controversy. In justice,
however, to those interested I am com
pelled to reiterate my former statement
that the number of books bound in the
government printing office during the last
seven months almost equals the amount
turned out during the previous twelve
months.
Books Not Sighted.
81 am perfectly satisfied as to the quail
ity and style SURPRISING that OF previous
years, and in no instance have the books
been sighted or shoddyixed. Modern in
novation has In a great measure necessi-
tated. the installing of modern machinery
in order to compete with other concerns
of like nature.
'One of the many instances which |
might mention is the small matter OF
pounding books, an old and antiquated
method. Modern and up-to-date concerns
have the smashing machine, of which
the government bindery has three. This
machine not only accomplishes all that Of
the old method of pounding. but gives q
uniform thickness to the book through
out and solidifies II, making 1t more dur
able and lasting.
'"The concentration Of work and hav-
ing it done with fewer people becomes a
painful necessity to keep abreast with
competitors"
AS to the SOC, GOO Forestry Use Book"
for the Department Of Agriculture, Mr..
Frank said: IF 1t 10 SO desired we will
eliminate them from the report, consider
ing the balance only, and even then the
increase will be more than 80 per cent.
Furthermore, might add that I am not
only ready and willing but earnestly in
vite the fullest investigation as to the
accuracy of my statement"
