Major Ulrlch Ritter OF the General

this country few days before war was
declared to study army transportation
facilities. has written ian impartial pres

European war reports are subject to
English and French censorship.
The article was written for the Cham

naval authorities.

the impressions gained by people that
have not been trained in military matters
The greatest astonlshment was caused by
the report that German soldiers had been
killed wholesale because they fought In
closed ranks and from this statement
the deduction was made that the German
soldiers still adhere to the tactics Of Fred

public schools whose parents are tax
! payers in the District.
From the present temper of the various
1 conferees. almost anything may happen
to the District bill. One conferee said
yesterday that unless there was more
OF spirit OF concession on the part OF
the Senate. he would not be surprised to
see the bill fail permanently. On the
other hand. the decision OF Chairman
Page to ask the House to agree in ad-
vance to a modified form of the BorIand
of Mr.. Page that satisfactory settle
ment may be reached at the next meet
ing.
Employee Item Tied Up.
The item for the payment of $4,15o to
Thomas w. Kellar. an old Senate en-
ploye, at present bears all the ear
marks OF deadlock proposition. The
Senate conferees feel a strong personal
obligation to go the limit on this item.
and the House conferees are adamant
in their contention that the payment At
this time of more than the claimant
ever asked for his property would be
indefensible. There is a very strong
feeling in the House against this item.
The Borland amendment modification
proposed by Mr.. Page ard which he will
present to the House will call for 4
three-way division of the expense of
street paving. Under the section now
embodied in the bill. the entire expense
devolves upon owners OF abutting pro-
perty. Under the Page proposal own
ers OF abutting property each would
pay one-third of the expense and the
remainder would be met from the joint
fund OF the District and the United
States
Realizing that a number of appropria-
ton bills will be in disagreement at the
beginning of the new fiscal year, to-
morrow, Chairman Fitzgerald of the
House Appropriations Committee. yes
terday introduced a joint resolution ex-
tending the existing appropriation laws
for fifteen days where new laws have
not been enacted. Senator Martin in
troduced a similar resolution and both

lay.
