CITIZENSHIP CLASSES IN
NIGHT SCHOOLS LIKELY

Glasses in American citizenship prob
ably will be opened for foreigners in the
public night schools Of the District Of Co
lumbia. according to Supt. Ernest L.
Thurston. Heretofore tho foreign-b born
attending night schools Of Washington
have had much attsntion given them in
their study Of English. but comparatively
little help has been given them In citi-
zenship training. The movement hore Is
In accord with national campaign which
the United States bureau Of education
has begun. and which Supt Thurston is
planning to assist SO far as possible.
I'VE are morally bound to take an active
part in this national movement. which
means SO much to the foreign-born men
and women living here, and to the nation
itself" said Mr.. Thurston today. Many
foreign-born are able to speak English.
but know little Of American institutions
and ideals"
Teaching OF citizenship will not be
limited to one or two classes, il tenta-
tive plans which the superintendent is
considering are put into operation. In
stead. in all classes where foreign-born
students are enrolled-and there are
many of them-citizenship courses will
be given as supplementing the regular
studies. Lectures on American ideals
and institutions probably will be given
by persons we'll qualified to speak on
these subjects.
More definite plans are to be consid-
cred by Mr.. Thurston when he takes up
in greater detail arrangements for the
night school year. He said today that
the citizenship course will extend over
the entire night school session.

Vienna Reports a Success.
ONE OR MORE KILLED
IN WRECK ON PENNSY

ALTOONA, Pa, October 5.-One mar
was killed. another is missing and
twenty-five persons. including eight
mail clerks. were more or less injured
when the Mercantile express on the
Pennsylvania railroad crashed into the
rear of a stock train at the west end
of the Lewiston yards. The express
was attempting to make up lost time
between Pittsburgh and New York. II
is reported, and the engineer failed to
see a red signal, owing to a prevailing
fog. Traffic was blocked for more than
four hours.
The man killed was Scott Eichelber-
ger, Altoona, Pa. conductor of the
stock train. The missing man, sup
posed to have been cremated when fire
broke out in the debris of seven cat
tie cars. was a drover. The express
was composed of steel cars and this
was responsible for the fact that there
were no fatalities among the passen-
gers. Those injured suffered principal
ly from shock and bruises sustained in
being hurled about the cars by the
force of the impact.
