Humor in French AIsace.

The win and the conscience Of AL
SAGE have never ceased to be French.
Her national character is completely
differentiated from the German. The
German Obeys automatically. The
Alsatian is fundamentally independ-
ent. The German has never possessed
a sense of humor. Alsatian humor, re-
calling Gallo wit. is celebrated. AL
satan stories witness TO this, as well
as the caricaturists Hansi and Zislin.
Ask, for example, of an Alsatian why
he has preserved a German accent,
even in speaking French. He will
reply: sour invaders have taken every
thing from us, the accent is the only
thing they have left u.s." Or again:
"What is the difference between an
accident and a calamity?" IF a Prus-
sian soldier falls into the Rhine. it
is an accident" explains the Alsatian,
"but If he escapes, it is a calamity l"-

OFFICERS ALL DRESSED UP


When the American army takes the
field the officers, at least, are going to
be the sportiest, niftIest set Of men
that ever trod the path Of glory Since
they are risking all, they are going to
have the satisfaction OF stepping out
In the trimmest style. Vanity is to
have its sway. and no one can crld-
cize. When n man offers up his llfe,
who can deny him his fling az fashion,
Furnishing goods dealers who are
supplying officers tell stories Of great
business, says the Kansas City Star.
The officers are all dressed up. in addl-
ton to having some place to go. For
one thing. they are going in for swag-
ger sticks. A swagger stick is some
thing less than cane, minus the
crooked handle.
It is a trim little article of adorn-
ment, but few men dare carry one, ex-
cept in uniform. The army yindicates
the wrist watch. Because they are
handy and practicable, the soldier may
wear a dainty timeplece, with an H.
Illuminated dial. strapped to his wrist.
In civilian life--but that is something
else again.
Metal mirrors that cannot be broken
are being carried. Pigskin puttees
costing as high as $12.50 a pair find
ready sale. Tailor-made uniforms cost
more than $40. The best is none too
good for the officers and student Off
GERS. Expensive hats and shoes that
conform to the army regulations are in
big demand. The English spiral put
tees-are permitted and have big run.
Many Of the men are buying camel's
hair blankets at $25 apiece for the
field.
Officers trunks that sell at $50 apiece
and carry-aHs of duck that go at $16.50
are sold rapidly. An Eastern manufac-
turer says that the largest order for
swagger sticks came from Kansas City.
Maybe. A lot of them are sold-some
of them with gold tips. There is no
skimping on apparel.

CAPITAL TRACTION
CONFERS WITH MEN
Committee of Union and Conn.,
pany Officials Arranging
New Agreewent.

While the strike was in progress on
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company's lines today officials OF the
Capital Traction Company were In
conference with committee OF the
union which it has recognized on the
terms of a new agreement.
At the office of the Capital Traction
Company and atunion headquarters
it was reported "the negotiations are
progressing most encouraglngly, with
the best OF good feeling prevailing.
1t is understood that the conferees,
who have until Wednesday night to
determine the terms OF the agree
ment, already are iu accord on most
of the questions at issue.
Today IT was said that only tn"
question OF wages remained to be
settled, and that this probably would
be the sole issue submitted to the
District Commissioners for arbitra'
tion.
The agreement signed by the com
pany and employees binds both sides
to accept the decision of the Com
missioners as final.
Because of the additional traffic
thrown upon the Capital Traction
Companys lines by the strike on the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company's system, officials OF the
union expect that many OF the strik'
ers will find employment with Presi'
dent Hamilton's company.

REPAIR SHOPS IDLE
Force at p Street Plant, With Few
Exceptions, Not A. Work.

The shops OF the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company, on p
street. west OF Rock Creek. are idle.
Strikers claim that 122 OF the 125
men employed in these shops, where
all car repairs are made, are on
strike. The machinery OF the plant Is
still today.
Like the car barns, the shops are
picketed by strikers. There haS been
no. excitement today. The pickets
stayed on the south side of the street
and away from the front OF the shops.
A number Of office employees were
on hand, and others were brought in
early in the morning. but they apDer-
emily had nothing to do.
NJ. r. Kubatz Is captain of the pick
cts. He declared today a detail of
men will be kept constantly on duty
at the shops.
Nearly a score OF trades are rep
resented by the men who are out, in
Guiding carpenters, cabinet makers,
wood workers. painters, blacksmiths,
forgemen, machinists, electricians,
armature men, and assemblers.
On Saturday all the shopmen were
given notice by the company that
only those signing individual agree
ments would be permitted to work to-
day. According to the pickets, only
three men signed.
Representatives OF the men declare
that they would have reported as
usual this morning IL the strike had
not been called, but they expected to
be locked out, as they had not signed
the individual contract

KEEP EYE ON RADIOS
Private Plants To Be Seized by U. S.
~ War comea

All private wireless plants known
to the Government authorities have
been placed under surveillance, in line
with the Administrations determine
ton to crush German intrigue and
prevent plots against this nation.
A nationwide search is being made
for hidden plants, as there is positive
proof that German agents are using
wireless stations in connection with
plots and conspiracies.
1t is the Administrations plan in
case OF hostilities, ultimately to seize
all radio plants or place the most
stringent restrictions on their opera
tion, in order to prevent information
about ship movements reaching Ger
many.
Fears Of submarine forays along
the Atlantic coast actuate Navy De-
partment officials in seeking to pre-
vent news Of the departure of armed
merchantmen from reaching the Ger
mans.
Department OF Justice and Treas
ury Department officials are silent
regarding arrests in Philadelphia, in
voIving charges OF smuggling mu-
nitions aboard the interned German
| raiders, the PrinH Eitel Friedrich and
the Kronprinz Wilhelm, but in other
quarters the belief prevails that a
gigantic plot has been uncovered.
Officials and citizens of Philadel-
phia are urging the Navy Department
to transfer the German sea raiders
from the League Island Navy Yard
| 10 some other point and to remove the
interned crew and officers from the
ships, contending that their presence
n menace.
Fear of bomb plots has been eN
pressed in Philadelphia, where II Is
said there is reason to believe am
munition has been smuggled aboard
the ships for use in the event of war
Navy Department officials say there
Is no other available and less vul
nerable naval base to which the raid
ers could be taken with safety. The
crews and officers probably would DC
interned ashore in event of war.

STRIKE REVIVES JITNEYS
Automobiles Operate Along Lines
Of Affected Company Today.

"Jitney" lines sprang into opera
tion in every section OF the District
today.
Take you down for a nickel" was
the offer extended by drivers to wait
ing passengers on the lines OF the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company.
Strikers urged that the invitation
be accepted.
Don't ride on 'scab' line. Take
jitney or ride on the cars OF the
Capital Traction Company, which
recognizes union employees" was their
plea.
"Jitney" passengers on their way
downtown were cheered by groups
of strikers at street corners.
"'Ataboyr' yelled one enthusiast.
"Show 'em that you're with u.s."
The license law provides an annual
tax of Sc for vehicles with a seating
capacity OF not more than ten per-
sons and S12 for vehicles seating
more than ten persons Operating for
hire with sufficient regularity to en-
able the public to take passage there
in"
In the present emergency drivers
will be permitted to operate a few
days without a "jitney" license.
Later, IL there are evidences that
the strike will be long continued, II
is probable they will be required to
obtain licenses.

LEAGUE PLANS BOYCOTT
Just Government Association Of
RiverdaIe Urges End of Strike.

Resolutions condemning the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Com
pany officials for their refusal to fur
ther confer with the striking en-
ployes, and calling upon the members
of the organization not to make use
OF the cars of the company while the
strike is in progress, were adopted at
a special meeting of the Just Govern
ment League, held at the home OF
Mrs. NJ. Gordon, in Riverdale. today.
Copies OF the resolution will be sent
to the railway officials, the officials
of the union, and the District Com
missioners.
The resolutions state:
1--WE urge the officials of the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Com.
pany to treat with its former EN-
ployes now on strike to the end that
the strikers may return to their work
and the railway company resume
operations and perform it's service to
the public.
I'VE protest against the employ,
ment of strike breakers. We believe
that the lives OF the passengers arc
endangered. owing to the purported
character and inefficiency of the
strike breakers.
"Until the strike Is ended, we
pledge ourselves not to patronize the
railway company, and to use all other
means of transportation offered"
