BIRMINGHAM RESPONDS TO
 FIRST CALL OF THE NATION
Appeal From Secretary Daniels for Naval Recruits in Age Herald Yesterday Brings Ready Increase
 in Applications and Crowds Seek Information

He considers the record of eight for yes- terday an excellent one and is especially pleased with the possibility of increasing it through the various persons who called at the. office during the day for informa- tion.
 | The office of Postmaster R. B. Smyer has been turned into a war office, and information in regard to recruits is be- ing dispensed and applications taken. Three applications were received by MT. Smyer yesterday for second leutenants. The postmaster has asked the local whole sale grain and feed men for bids for gro- ceries and feed for the local cavalry men and their horses. This was done following the receipt of orders from head quarters-at Washington Applications for service in the navy yards continue to be received, and additional applieatio
 blanks have been received.
 REMARK ABLE SPIRIT
 MT. Smyer has also asked the govern
 ment to supply him with blanks for wom- en applicants for shore duty who are anxious to enroll for clerical work. The spirit among the recruits yester- day was remarkable, according to MT. Bone, and proved that the spirit of pa- triotism which has been talked so much during the past few weeks is a substan- tial spirit.
 up until yesterday persons applying at the office were very anxious for de- tailed information in regard to the kind of work they would have to do, the sal ary and the liSe.'' said Mir Bone How ever, following the order of the President and when it was realized that recruits were actually needed, there was differ
 ent story to tell. The chief idea among the applicants seemed to be enlist, and to help bring the enlisted strength of the
 navy from 62,000 to the S7,000 required by I the President order.

Max Selinsky, the great Russian
Violinist who is now stopping over
in Honolulu, has been investigating
Hawaiian music. He is trying to find
some of the genuine old hulas and
melodies which have not been written
down but handed from one generation
to another orally, in the endeayor to
determine where the real Hawaiian
music should be classified. r.
at is difficult matter to say where
one would place the Hawaiian music"
Selinsky said this morning. 1T is not
te-npestuous, like the Russian, nor has
it the fateful quality so often heard
in the Russian compositions, though
it has much pathos in its cadences.
Modern French music is farthest
from it of any school, and it is also
entirely different from the old Italian
style of sustained ariaS. | think we
must call it a school all it's own.
Its melodies are hauntingIy sweet,
and they. have a note of sadness ever
present, whether the music is meant
for their native dancing or is for a
song in honor Of some friend or To-
cality. 1t fasCinates me as study,
and it is my intention to take a mum.
Der of the compositions to- the main
land with me for further study.
But what | cannot understand"
continued Selinsky, after lighting the
inevitable Russian cigarette, without
which he does not seem comfortable,

WILL NOT CHANGE RATES
Insurance Agents Hold That
Report Will Not Affect
Present Scale.

When the report of the Board of
Fire Underwriters confronted the
property holders the other day, many
Of them started cultiyatipg Lew line
of care. thinking about the increas" in
their insurance rates. Insurance
agents of the city are, however, taking
a different view of the matter and are
assuring their patrons that no rise in
rates is contemplated at this time.
According to the belief expressed by
some of the agents yesterday, the basic
rate of fire insurance will not be at
fected by the findings of the investi-
gators. Neither do they believe that
the making Of the suggested improve
ments would decrease the rates to any
appreciable extent.
A. X. Andersen says that the basic
rate will remain the same under the
present conditions but that the expos
ure rates might suffer n slight in
crease. He Is Of the opinion that the
improvements suggested in the report
would have tendency toward decreas-
ing the basic rate by about five per
cent.
George G. Newldh Of Newton &
Gage, said yesterday that he was not
looking for any change in the rates
| for this city as a result of the investi-
| cation, but that if the improvements
were made, there would be less liza
bility Of the rates being raised in the
future.
| Other insurance men of the city are
divided in their views. Some are OF
the belief that raise in rates will &C
into effect as soon as the board acts
upon the findings OF the committee
Others question the reliability Of the
report. while others believe that 1t is
but ruse of the companies belonging
to the board to raise the rates.
