Increase to Be Sought.

At some time during the next session
of Congress, it is stated. Maj. Pullman
will make a strenuous effort to get an
increased number of members of his
force. The District Commissioners. it
is said. are heartily in favor of the in
crease and will work as hard to ac-
complish it as they did to obtain the
salary increases for the inspectors,
captains lieutenants and sergeants
During the last few years the large
" increased numbers of suburbanites,
Maj. Pullman stated, made it necessary
to increase the numbers of polyicemen
in those sections and in order to ro
so the men had to be taken from the
city districts. The result is that some
of the city precincts have fewer men
than they had a number of years ago
Maj Pullman hopes that the appro..
priation of money for the purchase OF
east county section will be speedily
followed by an appropriation for the
construction of building. Following
the erection of the building, he hopes
Congress will see its way clear to pro
vide for men enough to police the new
precinct-forty or more-and it is be-
lieved Congress will respond to the ap-
peal.
Evan II. Tucker, president of North
east Washington Citizens Association,
and Dr. l.. d. Walter chairman of the
police committee of that organization,
are deeply interested in the establish
ment of the new precinct, and, it is
stated. their activity probably had some
bearing on favorable action by CON
gress.
There can be no doubt about the
need of the new precinct. said Or.
Walter to a reporter for The Star. "The
northeastern portion of the county is
fast being built up. and the presence of
more policemen is needed to insure the
safety and protection to which the
people are rightfully entitled"

MAKES ORDNANCE CHEAPER.
Washington Gun Factory Much Less
on a Specific Job.

Ordnance can be manufa ctured for
the government more cheaply at the
Washington gun factory than by COM
peting companies. Bids recently re-
ceived at the Navy Department for
10000 brass cartridge cases were re-
iected on the ground that they were
excessive. The lowest bid for the lot
was s1.137,000. whereas the naval chief
of ordnance estimates that the car
fridge cases desired could be produced
at the local factory at a cost of about
100000.
Orders have been placed by the Navy
Department with f. H. Lowell & Co.
and the National Marine Lamp Com
pany for the construction of powder
tanks of different sizes at various ma

be held October u to obtain a list of

ment of the commission. These vacan-
cies are not in the apportioned service,

next year will make an effort to get an
Increased number of members for his
force. In his annual report, recently
submitted to the Commissioners, Maj
Pullman called attention to the small
number of men in the department. and
reminded the Commissioners that the
force at this time has twenty men less
than it had in 1912.
Four years ago the question of police

suggestion was not followed. The po-
