ANOTHER sH0P.EARLY REASON

An estimated increase of 100000 in
population. with a comparative short
age Of employees, was offered by
Charles ]. Columbus. secretary of the
Merchants and Manufacturers Associ-
alton, as another reason why women
should shop early.
"It is only in the nature Of things.
therefore, that the problem Of serving
the public Is a very hard one in Wash
ington at this time. and presents a po-
tential reason why shoppers should
get out in the morning to meet their
requirements" said Mr.. Columbus.
"Our population is showing an al

will be materially added
to. This puts a still further responsf-

SUIT TO Determine RIGHT
OF CABMEN AT STATION
Seek an Injunction to Prevent D. c.
officials From Interfering
With Their Business.

The District Supreme Court is asked
to determine the right of licensed cab
men to solicit business in front of the
Union station in a suit filed by John
NJ Hammerly, Henry c. Mockabee,
Lewis B. Daniel. Edward C. Ostrow and
Joseph Abrahams. The cabmen seek an
injunction against the District Com
missioners and Raymond W. Pullman.
superintendent of police, to prevent in
reference with their business. and
from putting into execution an order
revoking the licenses of the plaintiffs.
Justice Gould issued a temporary in
junction against the District officials,
and set the case for hearing April 5.
The cabmen complain to the court
that the action of the officials follow
ed a complaint from the Washington
Terminal Company, which has an
agreement with the Terminal Taxicab
Company by which cars of the latter
company are permitted to stand In
front Of the station and solicit busi-
ness. while such permission is sought
to be denied to the other regularly II
censed cabmen.
Revocation Costing $25 Day.
This revocation of their licenses is
costing them SIS per day each, the
cabmen assert. and amounts to the
taking away of their property rights
without due process of law.
Through Attorney Daniel w. Baker
the plaintiffs claim that the action of
the Commissioners at the request Of
Maj. Pullman is without warrant of
law, and they ask judgment against
the officials individually for the loss
alleged to have been sustained by the
cabmen whose licenses they have at
tempted to revoke.
The law specifically provides how Ii
censes are to be revoked. it is stated.
and ex parte proceeding by the chief
of police. and District Commissioners
is not included in the legal methods. it
is asserted. The plaintiffs say they
have invited prosecution in the Police
Court If they have violated any law,

The Blithe Spirit

Oh, Monday may be wheatless,
and Tuesday may be meatless, but
I'll be happy still; if l can swat
the foeman by skinping my alb
domen, I'll do it with will. The
luscious ham and bacon by me
will be forsaken, if that's the
proper move; I'll cut out red meat
dishes, and feed on bony fishes,
and chortle while | hoove. That
gent is not winner who kicks
because his dinner is shy of pork
or beef, who eats his wheatless
ration, and grumbles OF privation,
and airs a lot of grief. Some day
perhaps we'll suffer; our diet may
be tougher than we have ever
known; before the war is ended
we may think shavings splendid,
and gnaw old Towsers bone.
We may all get together to eat
a side of leather, before we end
the war our persons lank and hol-
low, we may be glad to swallow
some boiled excelsior. Let's not
pretend we're martyrs until we
chew our garters and eat our
Sunday shoes; let's eat the sched-
uled vittles, and show no jots or
Titles of grouches, dumps or
blues. My health has been i'm
proving since I first started hoov-
ing, and eating simple fare; l
have better figure, and I am full
of vigor, my whiskers full of hair.
