RECORD DAY IS MADE
in CLEANUP work
District Refuse Collector Says Trash
Collections Are in Excess Of
Any Other Period.
CAMPAIGNS ENERGETIC

Records already are being broken IN
the clean city campaign. M. r. Ready.
District Refuse Collector. yesterday es-
timated an increase of Is per cent over
the former largest amount Of trash coll
lections ever made in the city. Indica-
tions are that the people of the District
are not only working for the cleanest
city, but that their efforts of this week
will make their goal possible.
The Refuse Collector and his assist
ants are working overtime to take care
of the increase. Far into last night, re-
fuse wagons carted their unusually heavy
loads of trash and waste to the Benning
dump This unusual volume of work was
but a repetition of the strenuous efforts
of Tuesday.
are being made in all parts Of the Dis
ceive the most thorough cleaning in all
it's history.
The energy with which the campaign
is being carried on has filled Mr.. Ready
with enthusiasm, although his contract
only calls upon him to remove certain
kinds of trash, in his desire to help set
a new record, he is hauling rubbish of
every description to the Benning dump.
He is operating twenty-eight collection
wagons, each making three trips a day,
and carrying on each trip from one-and-
a-half to twice its usual load.
Members of the clean city committee
are delighted with the evidence that their
long weeks of careful preparation is
bearing result. From every part Of the
city comes the news that the campaign
is being pushed with vigor. The fact
that the District Commissioners have an
nounced their intention to make a
thorough inspection after the week s
work and note the extent of improve
ment accomplished, has AIDED much to
the zeal of the workers, who are de-
termined that their neighborhod shall not
suffer by comparison with others
Many reports are being received at
the Health Department showing the pro-
gress which the work is making, ana
there also has been large increase in
complaints of insanitary conditions. These
mostly concern unsightly yards and va
want lots which are being used for
dumping places. The nine inspectors of
the department are kept busy investigat-
ing complaints.

GIRL HAS RESCUED MANY.
Nora Leahy, Expert Swimmer, Has
Record for Fearlessness.

Among the divers who are giving a
water carnival at the Cosmos Theater
this week is a young girl, scarcely nine
teen years old, who first learned to swim
about six years ago, and since has made
a remarkable record not only as a long
distance swimmer, but, what is infinitely
more important as a saver OF human
life.
Her name is Gilmore Leahy. She was
awarded a bronze medal by the Royal
Life-saving Society OF Great Britain,
and one of its representatives came all
the way across the ocean to present 1t
to her in March, 1872. at the headquar-
tiers Of the National Women's Life-saving
League, at President Street and Fourth
Avenue. Brooklyn, n. Y.
Miss I.eahy was the second woman to
successfully attempt to swim through
the dangerous waters Of He'll Gate, a
distance of eight miles, which she ac-
complished in one hour and fifteen min
utes.
A year ago in Baltimore she made a
thrilling rescue Of a boy attached to
River View Park. who ventured out into
the twenty-five foot channel. In March,
1912, during a competition in the big tank
at the league, where she was a teacher
of swimming for three years, she rescued
seven people, two of them girls. Time
and again at Atlantic City and elsewhere
she has dragged drowning women from
the water.
Nora will be one of the divers in the
water carnival at the Cosmos all this
week. Tonight, inspired by her, the
management has offered a silver loving
cup as a prize in an open diving contest
for girls and women. amateur swimmers,
and on Friday evening a similar prize
will be offered in like contest for boys.
In neither of these contests will profess
SIGNALS be allowed to compete.

NATIONAL DEFENSE
PLAN SUGGESTED
Navy League Supports Bill,
Which Urges a War
Council.

Warrington, Jan. 21.-yn its efforts
to promote strong naval force. the
Navy League Of the United States, q
nonpartisan patriotic society, is now
advocating the establishment of a
council Of national defense, provision
for which is made in a bill now be-
fore congress.
According to the measure the coun-
Gil would be composed of the presi-
dent of the United States. the secre-
taries Of state, war and navy, the
chairmen of the senate and house
committees on appropriations. foreign
affairs, military affairs. and naval at
fairs. the chief Of the general staff OF
the army, an officer of the navy, and
the presidents Of the army and navy
war colleges.
The purpose Of the council would
be to secure official and authoritative
Information for congress and to for
mulate and recommend to congress
naval and military policies and stand
ards, taking into consideration nation
al defense. American policies. and the
naval programs and military strength
Of possible opponents.
Not Commission.
Advocates of the measure point to
the fact that the United States is the
only government that does not pro-
vide for an effective. oral. official COM
munication between the executive and
legislative departments. The council.
they assert, will not infringe on any
Of the existing powers Of congress. nor
is 1t designed. they add. as a commits
sion to do the work Of congress.
Besides supporting the bill provid-
ing for the council Of defense. the
navy league. in its legislative pro-
gram. is advocating that congress
make the necessary appropriations to
carry out continuing and consistent
program Of naval constructions: that it
increase the efficiency Of the person
nel' Of the navy by a reformed sys-
tenn Of promotion for officers: that 1t
make the naval militia subject to the
call Of the president in time of war;
that 1t provide a naval reserve which
will include honorably discharged
men of the navy. the naval militia
and men from the merchant marine
and that it encourage strong
marine which can serve as
an auxiliary to the navy in time of
war
