There was silence at the table. Every
one of the boarders felt that In 4
way Dora Symons' action was a reflec-
ton on the establishment. Dora and
Charles Symons had met there, became
engaged and married, all within the
space of the preceding year. And
the Wentworths, the Fields. and the
Stuarts had met and mated and were
still living under Mrs. Jones' hospita-
BILE roof.
II always knew Mrs. Sylnons was
quick-tempered," said Herbert Went
worth.
"But it's so absurd" said Mrs. Glenn
ons. "Just because Charlie is d little
hasty-why, she knew herself that
he was quick-tempered before she mar
ried him. And just because he com
planned of her cooking and threw q
slice of pie across at the cat-that
isn't cause for leaving him."
"We must influence her to go back
to him. said Mrs. Field.

the ladies opened the ball.

AUGUSTA, GA, ASKS AID.
City's Relief Committee Send. An
peal for Help Broadcast

An appeal for aid has been received
in this city from Augusta, Ga, as a re-
suit Of the disastrous fire Of Wedpes-
day night week ago, which wiped out
many business blocks of the city and
devastated the homes of thousands be-
sides laying in ruins many historic
buildings.
Hundreds Of families were rendered
penniless as well homeless. Resi-
dents Of the city not affected by the hoIo-
caust, rendered all the aid possible and
1t was thought that the outside world
would not have to be called upon. hut
the needs were greater than were at
first anticipated. and 1t has now deyeIon-
ed that the $4,000 which was at first
thought to be sufficient to meet the
demands. will not suffice
Philip S. North, secretary Of the Re-
lief Committee has sent out a request
to the general public for donations in
cash. bed clothes, clothing and shoes
which may be sent to him at the court
house, Augusta. Especially are shoes
and cash desired, the children of the
sufferers being in great need.

Il do not feel that know how the
subcommittee will act on the pro-
posai to have two delegates. The
matter probably will be taken UP
when consideration of the Poindexter
bill is continued by the subcommittee
next Thursday"
The passage of the Chamberlain
resolution at this session would in
no way expedite 1t In the House. IL
is pointed out, as the Judiciary Com
mittee of the House recently. in order
to evade action on prohibition and
suffrage, agreed not to consider furth-

half-dressed women" because he re-
garded them as indecent.
In his recital of the needs OF the
navy the Secretary was most emphatic
in his appeal for plants to give the
government the whip hand over the
munitions makers who destroy compe-
tition.
ut is a wise policy for the govern
ment in obtaining most munitions sup
plies, he said, to go into the open
market. But when private concerns
drop competition the government must
step in and do the manufacturing IN
its own defense. To obtain armor.
torpedoes. projectiles. mines. and such
munitions, the government ought to
have its own plants in which the re-
suits OF its experiments could be kept
secret and by which it could regulate
the price IL necessary"
Urges ProjectiIe Plant.
projectile plant was described by Sec
rotary Daniels as urgent IF the ships
of the fleet are to be kept supplied
with fourteen-inch armor piercing
shells, The manufacturers had to be
constantly increasing their prices for
shells OF all kinds, he said, and have
finally arrived at the point at which
tney re1uSe 10 DID at all upon the
Specifications laid down by the depart
ment calling for shells OF high quality.
Specifications were sent out to more
than 100 concerns for smaller shells.
he added. and only two responded with
bids.
The Secretary was almost as urgent in
recommending the passage-of the bill to
establish a government armor-plate
plant. The prefer of the armor makers
to supply the navy with all it needs at a
price to be fixed by the Federal Trade
Commission he did not regard as advan-
tageous.
Cites ReuctlOns.
As a further illustration of the advan-
tages OF government manufacture, Mr..
Daniels cited the reductions that had
been brought about in the price of
powder as soon as the government plant
had been established. The private manu-
facturer at first demanded 81 a pound,
he said. This was reduced to 50 cents
when the government began to manu-
facture It. Now, he added. enough is
manufactured by the navy for its needs
in time of peace at a cost of "a cents a
pound, 81 cents with the overhead
charges, interest and such items, and
the price in the open market Is 50.
The difference between IS and "a cents
in a program OF preparedness he OBJ
served, lis well worth saving

Secretary OF the Navy Daniels at
tached to the administrations pre-

government ownership and operation
of plants for the manufacture of mu-
nitions of war when he appeared, be-
fore the House Naval Affairs Com
mittee yesterday to explain his esti-
mates for the naval establishment for
the forthcoming year.
Every dollar spent for prepared
ness shall be spent for preparedness
at a fair profit" was the principle the
Secretary laid down. When compe-
tition is destroyed" he added. the
government should be in a position
to manufacture all or a part OF the
supply of a necessary product in or
der to control the price"
In line with this policy Mr.. Daniels
not only urged the passage of the
pending bill authorizing the construc-
ton OF A government armor plant.
but appealed to the committee to ap-
prOpriate S7O5,61l for the construction
of a pTOjeCtile plant and recommended
smaller items to enable the govern
ment to manufacture torpedoes and
mines.
Mr.. Daniels did not have an oppor-
tunity yesterday to give the members
OF the House committee informatio
they are seeking regarding the five
year naval building program nor the
motives by which he was aCtuated in
modifying the recommendations OF the
general board. This subject will be
taken up today when the committee
resumes the hearing.
Defends Navy Schools"
He did. however. in the presenta.
tiOn of his opening statement. defend
at some length his navy schools for
the enlisted on the battleships OF the
fleet. and in the same connection
urged the committee to make adequate
provision for obtaining a teacher OF
English at Annapolis "as good as any
at Harvard" to train the future Of
icers of the navy in correct express
sion, and a professor of modern Ian
guages of the same standing.
He also told the committee OF the
difficulties encountered in securing
men for the navy and OF the censor
ship he had exercised over the distri-
button of recruiting literature. He
said that he had burned a bushel OF
