FUNERAL HERE TODAY
Conduct Services for Former
Southern Railway Man.

Funeral services for Milton V. Rich
Crds, who died Sunday evening at
Atlantic City, will be held tomorrow
afternoon at o'clock. Interment will
be in Rock Creek Cemetery.
Mr.. Richards had been for the last
twenty-four years a resident of the
District. and for some time head of
the development work of the South
ern Railway. In railway development
work. he was probably one of the
best-known men in the United States,
having been engaged in the work
since 1891.
Interested in the Industrial advan-
tages OF the South. Mr.. Richards was
largely responsible for the great
amount of New England capital in
vested in the South in recent years
Until his retirement he was consulted
by cotton mill investors in regard to
the location of new mills. His knowI-
edge OF Southern conditions and re-
sources made him a conspicuous fig
ure in the development of that sec
tion.
He was born at Princeton, Ill, in
1853. and grew up at Victor. Iowa. He
was married in 1881 to Miss Anna
Chase, who died last year. He is sur
vived by three sisters now residing

"HELL, HEAVEN OR HOBOKEN
BY CHRISTMAS" YANKS CRY

George Warren, writing to his
mother here, says that Hell. Heaven
or Hoboken by Christmas" is the cry
of the American army in France. He
has two brothers In service and an
other preparing to don khaki.
In his letter, dated August Il, Pri-
vate Warren said:
Brother Bills battery helped to
fire a few of our barrages for us
during the past month. l certainly
was disappointed when 1 found out
from one Of the members of his divi-
sion that he was right behind US and
that / didn't get chance to see him.
He didn't linger around the big
towns like we did when we first ar
rived, but was hustled right into the
big doings: that's because he had all
of his training in Camp Mcclellan. It
was different with US, as you know
we arrived last Christmas and had
to finish our training here.
But 1 have been on the go from
one sector of the line to the other
for the last three months. In few
days, hear. we are going way back

WILSON CALLS
OFF TRIP WEST
President Cancels Tour for
Fourth Liberty Loan
Campaign.

President Wilson late today called
Off his contemplated tour Of the
country in connection with the
Fourth Liberty Loan drive. The stress
OF public business at this time IL
given as the reason for the abandon
ment Of the trip in a statement
which he issued. 1t reads:
II had hoped and had even begun
to plan a trip to the Western Coast
and back in connection with the
campaign for the Fourth Liberty
Loan. not because believed that the
country had any need Of being slim
ulated to subscribe to that loan by
anything that I could say, but be-
cause I coveted the opportunity to
discuss with my fellow-citizens the
great undertaking which has made
such loans necessary. and in which
our whole energy and purpose are
enlisted.
1T is the third or fourth time that
have tried to persuade myself that
such a trip was possible for me with
out serious neglect Of my duties here,
because 1 have keenly felt again and
again the priyation OF being confined
to the Capital and prevented from
having the sort of direct contact
with the people am serving which
would be OF so much benefit and
stimulation to me.
TO my deep regret, I find that I
must again give the idea up.
Vital Issues Arise.
The questions which come 10 me
every day many OF them questions
Of the utmost dellcacy and involving
many critical matters, convince me
that It Is not right for me to absent
myself from Washington for more
than day or two at a time while
the war continues. Questions con-
cerning our dealings with other gov
ernments, in particular. it is impossi-
bic for me TO deal with by telegraph
or at a distance from the many
sources Of information which exist
only here. I should feel myself an
demonstrations public servant II I
yielded to my wish IN this matter
and took any chance OF neglectinC
even for a short time things that
must be decided promptly and in the
presence Of all the facts.
WOODROW WILSON"
CAAAGC IL was ne
might make such a trip. there has
been a food OF invitations to the
White House from the largest of
towns to the smallest of crossroads
hamlets. This Is particularly true Of
cities along the Pacific Coast where
the President has not been a visitor
since his first term.
There is one ray of hope in his an
nouncement and that is his admission
that il is not right for me to absent
myself from Washington for more
than a day or two at a time while th-
war continues" In the face of this
1t is deemed likely that the President
may visit some nearby city like New
York. Philadelphia or Baltimore. to
make a speech while the loan cam
patgn is in progress. as he could go
to any Of these three cities and return
to Washington within a day or two.

POSTMASTER PLANS
TO ABSORB AGENCIES
More Complete Consolidation De-
sired to Release Man Power.

Announcement OF more complete
absorption Of the telegraph and tele-
phone agencies into the postal system
to effect economies OF operation and
release man power into war opera
tions is expected from the Office Of the
Postmaster General Burleson soon.
Five committees are working out the
plan. One is considering consolida-
tion Of postal special delivery and
telegraph deliveries; one Of postal
substations and branch telegraph
Offices; one OF the auditing depart
ments of the postofice and the tele-
graph and telephone companies; one
of the purchasing and supply depart
ments OF all three and one is plan
ming operation Of the wire companies
by geographical divisions, as the
Postoffice now operates.
Consolidation OF one postal substa-
ton in Washington with a branch
telegraph Office has been effected as
an experiment, and consolidation OF
delivery systems is said to be next
on the schedule. New York will be
one Of the points where the consolida-
tions will be made effective first

These war workers are mostly wo-
