FOR BETTER CAR SERVICE.
Company Ordered to Provide More
Cars for Rush Hours.

Notice to provide additional cars on
several of it's lines during rush hour
periods was served on the Washington
Railway and Electric Company yester-
day by the public utilities commission.
In order to bring the service up to the
standard adopted by the commission.
the company is directed to operate
/ three additional cars on the Bright
wood line between s:15 and S:45 am.
six additional on the Maryland line
(Rhode Island avenue) between s and
S:45 am. and two additional on the
North Capitol line between S:15 and
S:4o am.
The commission. it was announced
today has asked the cooperation of
the police department in enforcing the
rule prohibiting passengers from stand
Ing on the running boards of street
cars. Several complaints about viola
tions Of the rule have been made to
the utilities board, which state that the
company employees are doing all within
their power to enforce it, In a letter
today to Anthony Ludwig, one of the
complainants, the commission says:
, Investigation shows that the trouble
apparently is due more to the refusal
of the travelling public to obey the
rule than to the lack of effort on the
part of the company to enforce it."

ny OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

President Wilson's reply to the Pope's
proposals for peace has been examined
from every point of view. But one
category of the peoples already regard
it as their Magma Charta. These are
the subject nations. Every Alsatian,
every Lorrainer cone OF whom is Presi-
dent Poincare). every Pole. every Croat
every Sloyena. every Italian of Trieste,
every Rumanian in the Bukovina. in
Transylvania and in the Banat, and
every Czech, knows that it sounds the
death knell of the tyranny under which
they have groaned for decades.
President Wilson has categorically
declared that the allies cannot neso-

their DEGREES. But the HapsburgG

DEATH KNFLL OF TYRANNY
SOUNDED BY PRESIDENT WILSON
American Executives Reply to Pope Re-
garded as Magma Charta for Subject
Nations Throug hout Europe

key now are mere parasites of the
German empire. By the fate OF the
kaisertum they must stand and fall.
Once Germany fails them. all they have
gained will turn to dust and ashes. "
Austria's successes in Russia and Ru-
mania, Bulgaria's momentary conquests
in Greece and Serbia, will collapse like
pricked balloon the moment the
power OF Germany is no longer behind
them.
1t is for Germany the irony of fate
that the very day President Wilson
placed on record the infexible decision
gotiate a peace with the military caste.
now masters OF Germany, the decision
of the entire Serbian race to continue
the struggle till it shall have achieved
its complete emancipation under the
scepter of King Peter should have been
proclaimed in the press of the world.
The reunion of the delegates of all
the sections of that race-Serbs. Mon
tanegrins, Croats. Slovenes, Bosnians.
Hsrzegovinians. Dalmatians and Istri-
ans-assembled in the Island Of Corfu
affirmed. once and for all. tho "solidar-
ite" Of the Serbian peoples. Mr.. Pash-
itch, the Nestor of the premiers OF
Europe, when he reduced to writing the
aspirations Of one of the bravest races
in Europe race which, for centuries
under foreign yoke. has preserved in
tact its national sentiment and its ma
tional asplrations-must have felt that
he was putting the cornerstone to his
long and distinguished political career.
All Titles Will Pass.
IT was further CHARACTERISTIC Of one
Of the sturdiest democracies Of Europe
that II should have been decided that
In the new kingdom there shall be no
titles OF nobility: all the titles created
by the Austrian emperor will cease to
exist the day greater Serbia is realized.

to speak. the chief Of his clan, the Serb
Of the Serbs. It was my privilege 70 ac-
company him during the great retreat
transcends anything accomplished by
any army In modern times. In spite Of
his age. In spite Of his physical infirmi-
ties. King Peter tramped the snow-lad
submits of the inhospitable Albania
with the same simple courage as the
meanest Of his soldiers.
King Always in Danger.
For weeks before. as long as shad-
ow Of hope remained for his faithful
troops, King Peter was always to be
found In the forefront OF danger. Not
once. but a dozen times. he escaped
death only by miracle: half a score Of
/ more than once had the feeling that
King Peter desired to die as a true
Serb. at the head Of his faithful army.
1t Is the pure democracy which is the
characteristic feature of the Serbian
race, from King Peter to the last peas
ant in his kingdom, that makes 1t in-
domitable and assures 1t of great fu-
ture as free nation. President Wilson's
declaration. that no peace will be made
with autocracies is, therefore. as have
said, the Magma Charts for the greater
Serbian people. a. the day that the au-
tocracies Of "Mittel Europe" fall. that
day freedom will dawn for the Serbs
from Croatia to the Danube and from
the Danube to the Adriattc.
