as the Naval Reserve has q recruiting
station of its own in the old Naval
Hospital, on Pennsylvania avenue.

modating recruits who wished to Join

EXPERT BEGINS
! DRAFTING OF
MERGER PLANS
]. A. Beeler Starts Traffic
Survey for Rerouting
Street Cars.

John A. Beeler, consulting transit
expert of the public utilities commits
sion, yesterday began work on a re-
port on re-routing District street car
lines, with a view to the possibility
of a merger. Mr.. Beeler will take up
the lines of each company individu-
ally, secure detailed information as
to the exact amount OF traffic to be
expected at each hour of the day, and
make Recommendations accordingly.
He declared that he would have
every bit Of information necessary
for re-routing the lines at his fingers
tips within six weeks.
The points which Mr.. Beeler said
he would consider would be the
amount Of traffic from the ends of
street car lines into the city. and
the most economic manner Of dis
posing of the empty returning cars.
Cars running from Brookland come
into the city in the morning filled to
capacity. and return empty. In the
afternoon this situation IL reversed
On the Georgetown-Lncoln Park
line this does not occur. A car makes
trip during rush hours from George
town loaded, empties its crowd down.
coin Park for another load to the
business section, thus utilizing both
lines. Since the Brookland line stops
in the center of the city. Mr.. Beeler
showed. 1t would be advisable to Sc
cure some other nearby loading
terminal where crowds are waiting to
be transported. thus eliminating some
Of the empty load.
One method Of relieving the pres
sure in the Fifteenth street throat Of
the Capital Traction Company sug-
gested to Mr.. Beeler, was that Cap
ital Traction cars going out Four
teenth street. shoot Sup the Four
teenth street track from Pennsylvania
avenue. thus relieving the Fifteenth
street throat of half its burden.
Mr.. Beeler Is strong for the mer-
GER" he declared. Aside from cut
ting down expenses of the companies,
and thereby allowing them to put
more money into equipment, he stated
that with the care Of both companies
at the disposal OF one ruling factor,
the surplus of one company's line at
present could be utilized to relieve
the deficit of cars on the line of the
other company.

MAIL FOR OUR ARMY BOYS.
Special Care Should Be Taken to
Secure Prompt Delivery.

Office of Second Assistant p. NJ
General, Washington, March 8, 1918.
Owing to the difficulties experience
cd in delivering mail when carelessly
addressed, postmasters are requested
to notify senders OF mail to soldiers,
sailors and marines Of the American
EXpeditionary Forces abroad that
care should be taken to write given
names in full preceding or following
the name Of the addressee with the
necessary title, such as private, SER
geant, lieutenant, etc. The need for
the full given name of the addressee
Is apparent when 1t Is explained that
the War Department has card-index
file that may be consulted relative to
unbelievable mail for the troops,
reference to which file furnishes no
information when letter Is address
ed -. T.. Smith," for instance, and it
cannot be determined whether it is
for James +. Smith, John F. Smith
or jeremiah F.. Smith. In addition
to the given name of the addressee,
and his title, there should also be
added the lull name Of the unit or
organization to which the addressee
Is assigned, 1t being sufficient in the
way Of further address to add the
words American Expeditionary
Forces"
1t is particularly enjoined that let
ters, post cards and packages be not
addressed with lead pencil, and that
every piece of mail matter bear the
name and address Of the sender, so
that in case Of non-delivery letters
may be promptly returned to the
senders.
The long transit taken by the mail
before it reaches the delivery points
abroad calls for the use of envelopes
that are substantially made, as expe-
rience has shown that well-made en-
yelopes retain clear and distinct the
addresses written thereon, while in
the case OF envelopes Of poor mate
rial the writing becomes indistinct,
rendering uncertain the correct read
ing Of the name or some part of the
address.
Reports continue to be received to
Indicate that packages reach United
States post offices In Europe in such
'dilapidated condition that repack-
ing has frequently to be undertaken
before delivery can be effected. Send
ers should use heavy weight paper,
canvas or cloth as wrapping for pack
ages, and when canvas or cloth is
employed the address should be writ
ten on a shipping tag, with the name
and address Of the sender on the re-
verse sHe. Otto Praeger,

Quelling Isolshevicism.

Norfolk, Va. March 14.--After 54
Russians forming the crew of the
Russian steamer Omsk had been re-
moved from the ship last night on
orders issued by Collector Of Gus
toms Hamilton at the request Of
Capt. Edmond Yanovsky, some of
the men returned to the vessel and
heavily armed themselves. Collector
Hamilton then called on the police to
reinforce the customs guard and
seize the vessel
Investigation by Collector Hamil-
ton revealed that the Russians had
sought to put the principles Of the
Bolsheviki incorporation on the ship,
demanding that the vessel be operat-
ed by committee of the crew with
the captain deposed. They also
sought 20 per cent increase in pay
and threatened to land tho ships
cotton cargo in Russia instead Of at
Liverpool, to which port it is con-
signed.
on the ship after she arrived here a
week ago, three members Of the crew
at that time driving the American
port guard from the vessel. Force
was threatened and the guard, one
man, was allowed to return unmo-
Tested. Capt. Yanovsky then called
in Victor e. Gartz, counsel to the
Russian consulate at New York, for
assistance In settling the trouble, but
when no agreement could be reached
Collector Hamilton was asked TO in
tervene.
After an Investigation. the collec-
tor, acting under the new port regu-
lations issued by Secretary McAdeo,
had the men removed from the ship
and delivered to immigration Spec
tor Morton. All were paid off and
the majority paroled under guard Of
Federal agent, with the idea Of
sending them back to Russia. 1t was
these men who returned to the ship
and armed themselves.
The three men who made demon
stration against the naval guard were
arrested. They are John Bikov,
Theodore Slenschenker and Alexan-
der Elchenko. The, first two signed
on the vessel at Archangel, Russia,
and Elchenko, at New York. Five
others, found to be ineligible to en-
trance into this country, under the
immigration laws, also were de-
tanned.
American armed guards on the
Omsk prevented them from boarding
the ship. Meanwhile a squad of
policemen, armed with riot guns,
rushed to the Omsk in fast motor
boat. They were ordered to arrest
all members of the crew.

MARRIED WOMEN URGED
For Teachers by u. S. Commissioner
of Education Claxton.

Washington, March 14.-,Suspen-
sion of laws or ordinances prohibit
ing married women from teaching
school is advocated by Federal Com
missioner Of Education Claxton as
the best means Of replacing the large
number of teachers who have quit to
enter war work. In letter to city,
county and State school authorities
Commissioner Claxton points out that
many sections are facing shortage
Of teachers because higher wages
paid in commercial and industrial
occupations are attracting many
young women from the schools.
UNLESS something can be done to
relieve the situation" says Dr.. Clax-
ton. "the places of many trained and
experienced teachers will be taken by
young teachers without experience
or professional preparation. There
are1 however, in the country scores Of
thousands Of persons, mostly women,
OF good scholarship and professional
training, who have had successful eX-
perience as teachers but who have re-
tired from active service. Many OF
these might render valuable service
again in the school, AS a means Of
relief in the present crisis, recon-
mend that they be called again into
active service and that laws. ordi-
nances and regulations OF school
boards prohibiting married women
from teaching in the public schools
be suspended or repealed"
