FINDS OYSTER CROP LOW
Commissioner kIlIian Says Dreds-

BALTIMORE, Jan. 11.-william H.
Killian, of the conservation commits.
sion, was at his office yesterday, after
having spent some days on the Po-
tomac river oyster-seed area, which
was opened to tongers some days ago.
He said that the crop of marketable
oysters found on the area was much
smaller than had been expected. Sew
erai hundred Maryland and Virginia
tongers are at work. and a great
many dredgers wanted to operate on
the area, but were refused permission
under the law.
Mr.. Killian said the dredgers are
having great difficulty in taking
enough oysters to make ends meet,
even at the high prices which pre-
vail. Some have stopped work, and
those operating have left the bay and
gone on the open grounds in the Po-
tomac. The trouble seems to be that
the oystermen have been slowly kill

Thinks Important Matters viii Re.
main Unsettled March 4.

Senator Kern of Indiana, Demo.
cratic leader OF the Senate, expressed
1t as his opinion today that an extra
session of Congress would be neces.

Delay in legislation so that import

on March 4 is foreseen by Senator
Kern.
Just now the Walsh water power
bill promises to consume much time.
Last evening 1t was forced before
the Senate by a close vote, and the
Townsend volunteer officers retire

bill Is the unfinished business. The
bill itself would cause much debate,
and in addition to that the friends Of
the Townsend bill DIRE expected to try
to hold It back and perhaps even I'LL
buster to restore the measure to its
position as unfinished business.

WHAT "HURRY" REALLY IS.

m the hour when women realize
that hurry is nothing but a half hys-
terical frame OF mind, having no &C.
tual relation to the need OF getting
something done swiftly and without
delay, their freedom will dawn and
the. knell of nervous breakdowns will
echo In the air. This asseTtion-that
the hurry-feeling Is a thing control
able from the amount its absurdIty is
realized-is no book theory, but one
proven by actual experience. Hurry
f. a matter OF empty words!
You doubt it's needlessness.T you who
read? Well, 1t Is possible to induce
that dreadful hurry-sensation when
there is no one thing on earth to
hurry for. Grant that. and the lack OF
reasonable connection between hurry
and the urgency of anything to be
done is self-evident. II you can have
one without the other, you can have
the other without the one! This fact
proven, the remedy is logical. II the
thought and expression of the words,
81 must hurry" be rigidly and stead
lily forbidden to ones brain and lips,
the sense of being possessed (obsess-
ed, ratherD by 1t can be so banished
by that resolution that one is left
free to go swiftly and do efficiently
without having poise OF peace shaken
by 1t. repeat again: Hurry and eff
cheney are wholly unrelated.
Go ahead with clear headed swift
ness, with your nerve energy free to
concentrate on whatsoever you have
to do, and don't let yourself be all one
helpless CULVER. just because you have
been weak enough to let yoursely say
or think-"Oh, / must hurry"
It may seem q trivial thing, the de-
-cfsion to wipe that one word out Of
existence, as one wipes a written word
from a slate; but once made and held
to, life has lost q nightmare!

CHARGED WOMEN

Letters to Congressman
From Suffrage States.

Discripination against women In
selection Of civil service Government
employees Is charged by women In de-
partmental employ in a letter sent
to each member OF Congress from,
suffrage States.
Though civil service rules permit
equality of treatment OF the sexes, Il
is stated, the Administration of the
rules resulted in the appointment Of
only four women from a total of 212
appointments recently made Id the
War Department.
: Signers OF the protest are women
now employed under civil service who
make their appeal, they state, in be-
half of those women who now find
obstacles in the way of getting into
Government service. These siEners

Ask For Assistance.
The women in their letter appeal
to members OF Congress "to call your
attention tp the discrimination that
IL practiced against women In the
Federal civic service because of their
sex, and to ask for your assistance
in righting this injustice"
The alleged determinations com
planned about include the following:
Women not admitted to q large
number of examinations they are
qualified to take; for example, that
for stenographer and typewriter now
being held In 400 cities.
Usual entrance salary for women,
as stated in Civil Service Manual, Is
$T20 per year, while for men 1t IL
$500, while the last annual report OF
the Civil Service Commission recon-
mends that the entrance salary for
male stenographers be raised to
81 900.
Charges DiserimInation.
. Appointing officials when calling
upon the commission for certihca-
lions frequently specify men instead
Of women, though the positions are
such that sex is not q factor in CT
nciency.
The civil service law and regula-
lions permit equality, but at "the
discretion of the administrative Of
hcers." IL Is stated.
The letter concludes: 'wilI you not,
