preme Court.

CAPITAL TRACTION STOCK
ON 6 PER CENT BASIS

Stock Of the Capital Traction Com
pany has been restored to a per-
manent per cent dividend basis by
the directors. Since 1914, when II
was reduced to per cent because
Of unfavorable conditions, the stock
has been on a per cent basis, though
last year it paid per cent through
an extra 1 per cent declared late in
the year.
The increase is made in the face OF
higher costs and at a time when
traction companies all over the coun-
tries are seeking higher fares to keep
up their dividends. 1t is due. IL Is
stated, to the increased traffic in
Washington, bringing larger gross
earnings.
The record made is exceptional
when it is considered that the trac-
ion companies here sell six tickets
for quarter, as compared with q
straight scent fare in many other
cities.

The bills have gone to the House
Military Committee and the House
Naval Affairs Committee. respectively.
The purpose OF Congressman Gould in
introducing the bills Is to insure the
enlisted men who are on duty where
they cannot easily get candy and chew
ing gum a supply OF those articles.
Mr. Gould Is out OF the city today, but
at his office it was pointed out that the
forces and those in the navy could often
not obtain candy or chewing gum. or
else could not easily obtain them.
Hence It is deemed advisable by Mr..
Gould to make it a part Of the rations.
This would be done under regula-
tions Of the surgeon generals of the
army and navy, which would insure
issue OF candy and gum of good
quality.
Sugar Valuable.
Mr.. Gould had in mind. It was
stated, that on the part OF those who
crave alcoholics this craving can be
satisfied or partially so, with candy
and gum. Moreover, a certain amount
of sugar is valuable from the stand
point of health and strength.
Not long ago Congressman Gallivan
introduced a bill for issue OF rations
OF tobacco to the soldiers. Mr.. CALI
van intended to press this, but after
a while the War Department con-
cluded to make tobacco a part Of the
ration without specific legislation.
This might be done as to candy and
chewing gum, though there is no sign
that such a course has been decided
on.
TOmmIes Chew Gun.
How long Il will take the British
army to consume the 1000 900 sticks
OF American gum contracted for by
the English government has not been
figured out, but 1t is said that after
months Of patient practice the British
Tommy can almost keep pace with a
native Yankee even with a gas mask
on. The art OF gum chewing was not
an easy one for the English soldiers
to master, but after King George set
the example the army took to young
Americas favorite CONNECTION in q
serious way and now indulge like old
timers.
The gum order placed with the
American Chicle Company by Great
Britain was for nearly 10000, 900
sticks and cost $3.50, 900, comparing ia
Vorably with some OF the other war
orders placed with American concerns.
As this only gives about twelve sticks
to each soldier repeat orders are ex-
pected, for at least half OF this would
be consumed in practice work.
