The executive committee of the

a dinner last night at the University

dore L. Burton of Ohio and of former
Representative Richard Bartholdt of
Missouri, at which both of the retiring
legislators made speeches of interest
in connection with discussions of the
war and the position of the United

a complimentary farewell to former
Senator Burton. preliminary to his de-
parture for a long foreign tour.
Mr. Burton was repeatedly referred
to as the next candidate of the repubi-
can party for President of the United
States. Democrats and republicans
alike seemed to be in cordial agree

WANT TORPEDO BOAT
ASSIGNED TO DISTRICT
Officials Call on Secretary Daniels
in Interest Of the Naval
Militia.

In an effort to have one of the large
torpedo boats of the navy assigned here
as training ship for the Naval Battalion
of the National Guard of the District
of Column bia, Commissioners Newman
and Brownlow and Commander Joseph
A Dempf. commanding the organiza-
ton, and Lieut. Frank w. Sigourney
executive officer, called upon Secretary
Daniels this morning. They asked to
have the torpedo boat Bailey assigned
here in the place of the Sylvia. Both
of these ships now are at the Norfolk
navy yard undergoing their annual over
hauling, and Commander Dempf is de-
sirous of bringing the torpedo boat
back to Washington in the place of the
Sylvia.
Commissioner Newman explained to
Secretary Daniels that he had made
voyages with the District naval militia
and told the navy Secretary of the
military spirit shown by the men i'll
performing their duties aboard ship
He declared that as District Commits
sioner he would like very much to see
better vessel assigned to the naval
militiamen here.
Brownlow Expresses Interest.
Commissioner Brownlow told Secre-
tary Daniels that he, too, wanted to
see the naval militia of the capital
city properly equipped with vessel
shat would become it as the militia of
the Capital city.
Commander Dempf pointed out that
the Sylvia was not large enough for
the organization. and, being u con-
verified yacht, did not create in the
men that enthusiasm for the naval
service which would be brought about
by vessel which looked like man-o'
war, and uad aboard the guns and
equipment for proper training.
If n torpedo boat were stationed at
the capital, he declared, it would give
to the visitors from the inland states
a chance to get glimpse of what n
naval vessel looks like This could
not be done with the Sylvia, he said,
which does not look like man-o'-war
but like any pleasure yacht which the
people of the inland states are used 10
seeing.

SUBURBAN|TES OPPOSE
INVASION BY BUSINESS
Cleveland Park Community Associa-
ton Will Fight to Bar Mer-
camille Houses.

Protest against the purchase of land
in Cleveland Park for the erection of
buildings for mercantile use was made
in a resolution adopted at a meeting
of the Cleveland Park School and Com
munity Associat ton at the John Eaton
School last evening. The resolution
sets forth that lit has recently been
learned that there has been contem-
plated the purchase of certain of the
lands comprised in the subdivision of
Cleveland Park for the purpose of
erecting thereon buildings to be used
as mercantile establishments. and for
purposes other than residential"
1t is further pointed out in the resolu-
ton that. to ''the most purchasers of
homes in Cleveland Park it was ex-
pressly represented that the owners of
the area described as Cleveland Park
would not permit any part of said area
to be used for other than residential
purposes; and this community of home
owners has been built up on this eX
press and implied understandings
In addition the resolution sets forth ::
That any attempt to use any of the
land in Cleveland Park for the erection
of buildings to be used for purposes
other than private dwellings be resist
ed by appropriate legal proceedings.
To Notify Realty Dealers.
That it is the sense of said residents
that the sale by the present owners of
any such lands by deeds not containing
restrictions upon the use thereof to
residential purposes would be violative
not only of their rights. but of the
principles of equity and fair dealing.
Also, it provides that copies of the
resolutions be sent to real estate deal
t'ers and others and that "everything
possible be done to put all interested
persons on notice respecting the senti-
ment and the intention of the residents
of this community.
The resolution was introduced by
Frank j. Hogan. On motion of Mr..
Hogan resolutions also were adopted
urging Congress to provide adequate
funds for the police and fremen's pen
sions Additional school facilities were
urged, the claim being made that the
school at present is overcroWded.

Chairman Moon of House Commit.
tee Predicts Curtailment of the
Present Service.

Chairman Noon of the House postal
committee, author of the railway mail
pay provisions which caused the fall
ure of the postal bill in the last Con-
gress. wrote Postmaster General Burle-
son today that only strict economy
would keep postal expenditures within
the amount Of last years bill, which
was extended by joint resolution of
both houses.
Il am very sorry" wrote Representa-
tive Moon, ito have to intimate to you,
even that If you should go beyond the
appropriation allowed by law for your
department, there will not be much
disposition to give you relief
Time to End Subsidies, He Says.
The time has come when practical
subsidies, which. in the form of law,
have fastened themselves on the pubic
service, particularly the postal service,
should end. and / know you have been
and are doing all that IS within your
power to put an end to them.
Representative Moon explained that
the curtailed appropriation would ne
cessitate a curtailment OF the furai
delivery service and would prevent any
increase in the postal force. as well as
promotions.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. J
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-An army
educated in engineering and hardened
to the rigors of campaigning through
the reclamation Of desert lands, the
'reforestation of large western tracts
and the protecting Of the Mississippi
valley from floods, was advocated this
afternoon by Senator Works of Cali
fornia.
He said such an army would do
away with two great evils; first, the
unpreparedness Of the country; and
second, the danger in the present pre-
paredness plans Of creating "a military
CASTE" Also he said the soldiers re-
cruited would be doing useful work
instead of becoming idlers.
AIet the men in this army gain
physical confidence by exercise said
works, addressing the senate. Let
them gain the conquering spirit by con-
quering the great opportunities in ma
ture. Give them military drill. Such
an army would open vast tracts and
help empty the slums of our cities. 1t
would be better force to defend us
than 10000 paid idlers."
