District of Columbia is the object Of a
movement begun by the committee on
schools of the Board of Trade at
meeting in the rooms of that organiza-
ton yesterday afternoon. In adopting
resolution urging that only .Ameri-
can citizens or prospective citizens be
employed in the public schools. the
committee expressed it's belief that this
was particularly important in the case
of school employees u view of the fact
that they come into contact with the
youth of the city.

dent Wilson few days ago in a let
ter to the board of superintendent Of
the New York public schools. in which
the chief executive said every person
appointed as a teacher in the public
schools should furnish proof o. Ameri-
can citizenship as one of the required
qualifications"
Some members of the committee de-
sired to have citizenship as a qualif1-
cation for all employees of the District
government The committee held that
this action was not within its scope,
however, its duties being with the pub

Survey of Buildings.
Pursuant to an assertion made by
Senator Jones in an address before the
Board of Trade recently. in which he
cited cases where school conditions

good. Chairman Frederick A. Fenning
appointed the following committee to
make a survey of the use and occupa-
ton of the school buildings: DR.. c. N.
Chapman, chairman; E. d. Ryerson
Henry E. Bittinger, William L. Peet
and Ernest Kelly.
The committee took action favoring
the elimination of that part of the Dis
trict appropriation bill which pro-
hibits' any one person from drawing
two or more salaries in the schools ag-
gregating more than $4,000.
This was done SO that the school Of
ficials might obtain the best possible
material for the night schools. Some
of the most efficient workers in the

1915. when the White Star liner Arabic.
from Liverpool to New York, was tor
pedoed without warnig near the Lusi-
tania's grave, and sunk in about ten
minutes. Out of 375 passengers and
crew, forty-eight were lost. Thirty
Americans were on board and all but
two were saved. The German govern
ment commended the submarine COM
to ram him. and fred in self-defense,
but disavowed the act. expressed re-
greet and gave additional assurances for
the future safety of passenger ships,
supplementing those previously given
in the Lusitania case.
One American of the crew of the AL
Ian liner Hesperian was lost on Sep
TENDER 4, 1918, when the ship returning
from Liverpool to Montreal was tor
pedoed and sunk without warning off
the southern Irish coast. The German
admiralty contended no German sub
marine was in that vicinity, but a
piece of German torpedo was picked
up on the Hesperian's deck.
Austria's First Exploit.
Austria's first submarine operations
of consequence. and those which
brought Germany's closest ally into the
situation. began with the destruction
of the Italian liner Ancona in the
Mediterranean, November I, 1915. With
hundreds of passengers, many of them
women and children, from Naples to
New York, the Ancona was chased and
stopped by an Austrian submarine.
Twelve Americans were on board and
nine were lost.
Italian official figures say sos persons
were lost out Of 507 on board. 1t was one
of the heaviest submarine disasters.
Some of the American survivors swore
the Austrian submarine even she1led the
lifeboats as the passengers were get
ting into them. The United States made
representations. and the Austrian gov
eminent after some parley gave assur-
ances which prevented a break.
On December 8. 1915, submarine.
presumably an Austrian, fired on the
American oil steamer Communipaw
sailing from Portici. Italy, to Alex
andria. Egypt. The Communipaw
stopped and sent small boat, for
which the submarine signaled, but
when the boat reached the spot the sub
marine had dived-evidentIy realizing
her mistake-and was not seen again.
No damage was done to the Communi-
paw and no one was hurt.
