FNE-YEAR-OLD GIRL
GIVES RED CROSS AID

There is one exceedingly happy
younEster in Washington today. She
is five-year-old Louise Stein Brown,
OF 1900 Seventh street northwest
After two days hard work, she de-
livered to The Times today $1.7o with
the request that It be sent to the
Red Cross. The money was collected
in a sealed cigar box in front OF her
home. She wore a Red Cross cap
and apron while making the collec-
tions. The idea OF collecting for
sick soldiers" was entirely her own,
her grandmother sCid today.
A charity worker visited the home
to obtain a contribution and from
that visit Louise conceived the idea.
The next day she took her stand. She
would not open the box to see how
much II contained for fear of losing
some Of the contents. II was not until
the box was opened at The Times
office that she knew the result OF
her lAbors.
She was delighted. In some trep-
idation she asked II the Red Cross
would accept that small amount.
When she was assured the Red Cross
would gladly accept that small
amount" she beamcd.
Encouraged she will try to collect
a larger amount.

CAMP MEADE WORK
PACE Is QUICKENED

Col. F. w. Lawton, aide to Maj.
Gen. J. Franklin Bell. commander Of
the Department OF the East, paid a
visit yesterday to Camp Meade, near
Admiral, where the Pennsylvania
draft armies are to be modified and
trained.
In company with several army Of
ficers and officials who are engaged
on the work OF building Camp Meade.
Colonel Lawton went all over the
grounds and inspected the work that
has been done up to the. present.
Among those who went with him on
the inspection trip were Major Ralph
l. Proctor, In general charge of the
building operations; Major c. c. Bill
lingslee, of the Army Medical Corps,
and Major Walter w. Crosby, who is
MaryIand's representative in charge
Of the work OF clearing the site.
Colonel Lawton complimented the
Maryland authorities for the quick
Job they have done in clearing the
site for the camp, this part OF the
work having been assumed by the
State when the Government offered
to locate the cantonment at Admiral.
In the last few days construction
work under the direction of Major
Proctor and Representatives OF the
regular army has been speeded up
considerably. The railroads have
built additional sidings and lumber
and other supplies are coming in
much more rapidly. The force OF
carpenters and other workmen has
been increased, and buildings are be-
ginning to spring up everywhere.

TOESGAPE DRAFT

Department of Justice secret agents
have begun a thorough investigation
OF charges OF widespread frauds and
,vasions directed against men called
b. draft.
The most serious charges come
from New York, where. It has been
found hundreds OF registrants have
given fictitious addresses. especially
in the lodging house and waterfront
districts. In many districts also au-
thoritIes have been Informed. regis
trants whose names stand high on the
liability lists are hurriedly moving TO
concealed addresses.
Suspect Foreign Agents.
One angle of the inquiry by Depart
ment OF Justice agents will be to de-
termine whether any foreign agents
have made plans to thwart the draft
machinery.
Prosecution OF men caught 10 an at
tempt to evsde summons for physical
examination will be vigorously
pressed by the Government, officials
said today.
Speaking OF draft evaders Deputy
Attorney General Roscoe Conkling
said today:
From the time mans name is
posted he becomes a member of the
United States army.
He may be tried by court-martial
II he fails to report for examination
or makes a false claim for exemp-
ton"
Must Find Own Names.
Federal officials today supplement-
ed this statement by giving warning
that changing address so that notice
from the local exemption board can
not be delivered does not absolve
drafted men from liability.
The responsibility for finding his
name on the posted list OF men CALL
ed for examination is placed on the
registrant-

COAL
PRICE SOON
TO Be FIXED
BYPRES|DENT

Maximum coal prices for the Gov
eminent soon will be fixed by Presi-
dent Wilson. At the same time the
President will fix a basic price for
private consumers.
The price, Administration officials
believe, will be considerably under So
ton for bituminous coal at the
mines, the price which was fixed by
the Council of National Defense and
800 coal operators.
Detailed figures on the cost Of
production in all Of the coal fields Of
the United States are being compiled
by the Federal Trade Commission,
following an investigation by Q
corps Of expert accountants and ex-
aminers.
The trade commission will not fix
the price Of coal either for the Gov
eminent or for private consumers. II
has determined In detail the produc-
ton costs In all OF the fields, with
the exception OF several in Maryland
and Virginia aad the far West InVes.
tigators are rapidly completing the
work in these fields.
With the data all in, q detailed re-
port covering all Of the coal regions
OF the c'/.ntry will be rushed to com
pletion and placed in the hands OF
the President Upon the showing u
this report. the President will fix
prices.
As was Indicated IN contracts Drawn
for the Government supply in WASH
ington by the general supply commit
tee and the coal production commit
tee OF the Council OF National De-
Tense, the price TO be fixed will be
the price (. o. b. at the mines, or the
wholesale price.
The Government will buy the coal
at the mines. pay freight and delivery
carriage. cutting out all charges BY
middlemen.
The public will. Of course. not be 50
fortunate, as individuals cannoS
handle their own coal supply.
The cost at the mines, however. VIII
give a basis for retail prices. The
Federal Trade Commission viii 30
lice" the coal dealers and protect the
public, 1t was declared today. This
means Tat coal jobbers and retailers
will have TO maintain q reasonable
price. The Government Will know
the basis of all prices, and II they
drift too high. or local conditions
send them up, 1t will be easy for the
Trade Commission to step in and put
its official finger upon any ''unreason-
able" increase
Administration officials believe
that this will give private consumers
full protection against extortionats
prices. and will afford fair play all
around

ASKS NIGHT SERVICE
NORTH OF PETWORTH

the Washington Railway and Elec-

urged in a letter sent Clarence P.
King, president of the company, by

The increase in night and overtime
work due to war conditions in the
Government departments has greatly
Increased the need and demand for
extra service. The Walter Reed Me-
mortal Hospital is now a little city
in itself, and depends entirely upon
the Brightwood line for transporta-

Tudor Morsell and Edward Rheem,
composed by Thomas Brahany, were

the woes OF the southpaw golfer and
OF Eynon's help in trying to correct
the southpaw's habit of slicing, fooz-
ling, and other sins. The verse that
brought down the house was:
This queer old world is a golf course
With many a hazard and trap,
To catch the weak and unwary,
And add to their handicap.
It's fine to be a scratch man,
And play the course in par,

COMMITTEE
FAVORS DRAFTING
ALIENS |NTOARMY

The Senate Military Affairs Com
mittee today voted unanimously to
recommend to the Senate on Monday
immediate passage OF the Chamber
lain resolution permitting draft of
aliens into the new national army.
The Senate is expected to adopt
the resolution, unless the State De-
partment opposes II.
One million men are affected by 1t.
Aliens who cannot become citi-
zens Of this country-Chinese and
Japanese-are exempted.
It also would exempt citizens Of
enemy countries and their allies, ard
alien citIzers OF countries having
anti-drafting treaties with the Uni
ted States.
Other aliens who have resided IN
the United States ons year without
making any effort to become citizens
will be liable to the draft under the
resolution.
nrst papers will not be exempted
NAO nc EIONOHL
shars office bases its decision on the
CONSUMPTION law which says "the
draft as herein provided shall be based
upon liability to military service Of
all male citizens, or all male persons
not alien enemies who have declared
their intention to become citizens.
The bNreau Of naturalization is fur
nishing lists to the provost marshars
office. Aliens, therefore, who plead
for exemption will md that their
claims will be checked up with the
court records.
Aliens who have not taken out
their naturalization papers will in all
probability be exempted. Germans
and Austrians are, OF course, exempt
ed by the provisions OF the law
against alien enemies. But to take
aliens of other countries the State
Department would violate treaty obli-
cations and set up 4 precedent for
other nations to draft Americans
whenever the countries in which they
reside may be at war.
