DISARMAMENT of Washington
Branch Talked Of.
WESLEY CHAPEL KEPT OUT
Company Not Allowed to Compete
in Drill-Friction Is
Discussed.

The District of Columbia Branch of the
National Boys Brigade OF America may
soon disband unless certain matters are
Strengthened out.
There has been dSsension IN the local
ranks for some time past, which broke
out afresll Monday, when the Wesley
Chapel boys We're refused permission to
compete for The Star cup or the prize flag.
Rev. w. l. Mckenny, pastor of Wesley
Methodist Episcopal Chapel and national
chaplain of the organization, said today
that the trouble arose out of the fact
that there is no division commander in
the District of Columbia. Since Rev. +.
c. Powers. major general, commander of
the District of Columbia and Virginia.
resigned several years ago. he explained,
there has been no commander here.
Regarding the non-appearance of his
company on the field last Monday at the
competitive drill. DR.. Mckinney stated
that Col. j. III. Butler, in charge of the
local division, had suspended his company
because of alleged failure of the boys to
carry out certain orders.

In Full Operation.

At Spandau, in Prussia, where the eX-
periments Of the German war Office with
aerial craft are largely conducted and
nocturnal flights are increasingly frequent,
this pioneer beacon for aerial guidance
has been erected and is now in full ac-
tivity according to an official report to
the State Department from Consul Thorn
as H. Norton at Chemnitz.
The lighthouse is comparatively simple
in its construction, consisting only of an
elevated support on which rests, in a
horizontal position, a wooden ring of con-
siderable diameter. This ring is equipped
with thirty EIGHT powerful electric lights
and an automatic arrangement for inter
rupting the current at regular intervals
for short period.

An aerial lighthouse for the guidance of
sky pilots may at present sound fantastic,
but the science of aerial avigation has
progressed to such an extent that already
the need for such a structure has been
felt.
The first of such marks of the world s
progress along new lines has been sup
piled by the erection of an aerial light
station in Germany.

Attitude of Company.

lie SAID the oTuefS announced tnd1 any
company which did not pay all assess
ments and dues would not be allowed TO
participate in the drill. This DR.. Murray
said was an injustice, as his company is
a comparatively new one and the assess
ment imposed was for debts of years
ago, which the members of his company
did not feel they ought to pay
He also said his company had as yet
not secured uniforms, as it had not
the money to purchase them, but expected
to do within short time. He added
that he expected to go to Baltimore in
the near future to confer with the ma
tionai officers there regarding the status
of affairs in the District
Rev. DIR. A. II. Thompson, pastor Of the
Waugh Methodist Episcopal Church, rep
resented in the brigade by one of the
original companies, said there has been
considerable friction for some time past.
There was some opposition to the nation
al body, he declared. and that as re-
suit certain officers wanted to withdraw
and form separate organization, but
that his company and the Wesley Chapel
decided to stand by the national organi-
cation.
In reference to the competitive drill
last Monday, he said the brigade was
formed for boys. and at the time
he was commander, several years ago,
that the company which won the prize
Monday was composed more than one
half OF young men.
Col. Butler Explains.
Col. Butler today stated that some time
ago there was much dissatisfaction with
the conduct of the affairs of the brigade,
but that the matter was later straight
ened out. Regarding the awarding of the
prize to the Christ Protestant Episcopal
Church Company last Monday, he said
that the decision of the judges was unan-
imous, and no ground existed for con-
testing the award.
AS to the suspension of the Wesley
Chapel Company, he said that the COM
pany had refused to bear its share of the
expenses OF the organization, and that it
was therefore suspended.
The churches represented by companies
in the local brigade are Waugh Metho-
dist Episcopal, Wesley Chapel Methodist
Episcopal. Epworth Methodist Episcopal
South, st. Marks Protestant Episcopal
and Christ Protestant Episcopal.

parts of the world. It's object is THE

Christian manliness among boys"
