CONGRESS TO URGE
MANY ECONOMIES

Congress Is promptly going to take
a hand in deciding what expenditures
shall be allowed the executive de
psrtments, once It is settled that ar
armistice is signed and the war is AZ
an end.
This has been made plain by Senator
Martin of Virginia. chairman OF the
Appropriations Committee and Demo
cratic leader in the Senate. Senator
Martin not only SAYS curtailment by
the various departments will be
asked. but that the War Department
viii be asked to stop calling mon
into the service when the war closes.
To Oppose Further Drafts.
This is understood to mean that

ance Of the war after the srmistice-

II has been foresssn here that.
though the general stan wants to
take no chances until a peace treaty
Is actually signed. the pressure from
the country and Congress TO curtail
activities following an armistice
would be great and probably control
ling.
The attitude of Senator Martin
makes IL clear that leaders Of both
parties will now urge economy. Re
publican leaders had already declared
for II. Senator Martin points out
that war appropriations in the last
two years have totaled S57. 900 900 900.
and that he Is concerned over need
for economy.

The az is sure TO fall on a number

missions and other agencies created
for war purposes. once 1t Is believed
the war Is over.

So far as Washington is concerned,
the prospective action will have the
effect OF reducing the population here
and the demand for housing require

vised by Otto NJ. Eidlitz, head Of the
housing bureau, that IL the war ends

The first plane left the ground at
about 12:4O and was quickly followed
by eight others. A tenth plane went
up. but was forced to land again be-
cause Of engine trouble. 1t was
quickly repaired, however. and came
in for its share Of the flying, though

SPIRIT Of AMERICA

CHAUMONT. France, December 90
They may line the streets and cheer
in London or Paris or Rome; they may
toast the health of kings and queens
in formal banquets and at state occa-
sions: they may gather at the peace
table and discuss national aspirations;
but nowhere could the spirit of America
be better expressed than it was on
Christmas day in the procession of
American soldiers as they passed in re-
view on mud-Soaked field in France be-
fore a President of the United States,
W no told them that he meant to insist
that their sacrifice and that of their
comrades left to sleep in the soil of
France should not be in vain.
Far from America, with many home
sick heart and yearning face, they stood
in solid lines OF olive ,drab in the valley
of the upper Marine and listened to
stirring address from man who did
in-chief, but simply as their chosen serv-
want. 1t was with the words my fellow
countrymen' that he began, and as his
eyes swept the rolling landscape over
which infantry, artillery. cavalry, ma
chine gunners and tank troops stood at
attention, he expressed the gratitude of
America in a voice that was full OF
emotion.
Here they were. men who had come
thousands Of miles to fight for an ideal,
and he told them plainly that he appre-
ciated that they expected him TO realize
that ideal ------

$500 Bond Is Forfeited.

When the case of callie Mcqueen,
charged with violation OF the zone
law, was called and she failed to ap-
rear on call, and her bondSman failed
to produce the defendant, on motion
of Assistant District Attorney Ralph
Given. the court ordered the bond of
$500 forfeited. Mr.. Given gave notice
that he would call all bondsmen and
warn them that if on call of defend
ants on bail and they failed to ap-
pear all bonds would be forfeited.
Criticism is being made of the po-
lice department for its attitude
against defendants and its alleged
unlawful action in photographing,
fingerprinting and Bertillon measnr-
ing all persons arrested under the
zone law and making permanent
record of such arrests in the rogues'
gallery. D PENDANTS who are acquit-
ted of the charge have against them
such records in the police depart
ment as blemish against their char
acter. Pra ctically all members Of the
bar hold the opinion that such action
on the part of the police department
is without authority of law.

PROGRESS IS SLOW
IN BOOTLEG CASES
One Dismissed and Two Con-
tinuances Result of
Morning Session.

| Progress was slow this morning at
the session of the United States
branch of the Police Court in the
hearings of the bootleg cases. One
case was dismissed. two continued for
further hearing, and one case, in
which two defendants arrested in an
automobile at $3.50 o'clock in the
morning on Rock Creek Church road
northwest transporting four cases of
whisky, two cases of assorted wines
and eight cases of beer, were taken
by the police. was being heard when
this report closed.
When the court was convened, the
day having been set for the opening of
jury trials, it was found that only six
of the jurors subpoenaed had shown
up. This was due to d previous post
ronement, the notice calling them for
this; morning having been delayed in
the mails. The jurors were discharged
until Thursday next, the court an
nouncing that they would be required
to serve only next Thursday and Fri
day.
Robert Lemon. colored. charged
with bringing in six quarts of whisky
and one pint of rum, said the liquor
was for his personal use. The case
was continued for a further hearing.
Josephine Davis, colored. who admit
ted having brought in ten quarts of
WHISKY ana Two quarts OF VINE 1Or
her personal use. was heard and the
case continued until tomorrow to en-
able the police to produce further
evidence. William BriScoe. colored,
who admitted he had brought six
quarts of whisky into the city for
personal use. was discharged.
Two Convicted of Bootlegging.
The afternoon session of the United
}nta oh of hn VI
taken up in the hearings of six cases
under the zone law against bringing
intoxicants into the District of Co
lumbia. better known as the boot
logging cases. Three of the defend
ants were discharged, one case was
continued and there were two con-
victions.
Daniel Frazier, colored. charged
with having purchased in this city
six half pints of whisky from an al
legged bootlegger. with the alleged
intention of selling the same, was
given term of sixty days in Jail
This is new angle of prosecution
under the zone law, it being the mi
tial case prosecuted where the de-
PENDANT has been charged with hav-
ing purchased whisky in the District
of Columbia with intent to sell the
same.
James NickerSon. colored. who
claimed his residence to be in Rich
mond Va, and that at the time of
his arrest he was on his way from
Baltimore to his Virginia home with
fifteen and one-half quarts of whisky
for his personal use, was given sixty
days in Jail. The police showed that
the defendant had been arrested for
The same offenSe on a previous occa-
sion with as much whisky, and that
at that time he claimed his home to
be on Champlain street in this city.

l35 Improvements
In Pierce-Arrow Cars

Something like one hundred and
thirty-five improvements are included
in the Pierce-Arrow cars on display
this year.
Last years car likewise embodied
many betterments, as compared with
the vehicles displayed in 1916. Yet the
casual visitor to the 1918 show will
probably not notice any of these
changes.
} They are not radical; they involve
no departure in construction. Few OF
them are in evidence on the car. They
include such details as an enlarged
braking area, new universal joint, an
added grease cup on the top half Of
the rear spring seat. change in the
lower throttle lever for foot accelera-
tor to give slower first opening, q
new brace for the columns on runa-
bouts, longer water jacket, thermo.
stat water control, an improved radia-
tor, an oil gauge registering 100
pounds, new hood catch, a metal rest
tor hood when raised, a new rear tire
carrier ring type, new straight side
tires, new clock and a new plate glass
window in rear Of cape top.

is one Of the handsomest creations. It
is upholstered in Spanish green leather
and has top cover to match. Then
there is the large incosed car for seven
passengers-the 1856 limousine-done
in deep red, lightened by wicker
panels on all four doors. Its lines are in
keeping with the Characteristic Pack
ard design-trim almost severe in ap-
pearance. A special Laidlaw broad
cloth is used in the upholstery, fitted
over cushions and seats in rich plain-
ness. The interior fittings are in
accord.
A 3-25 coupe is done in Fleetwood
blue. The seats are not standard, but
are exhibited to show what can be
furnished.
The newest passenger car in the line,
and perhaps the most striking in ap-
pearance, is the brougham for SIX,
mounted on the short chassis. It is
low rooted. Ditzler's Beaver Brown
and Mojave are used in the painting
scheme, the lighter shade used on the
upper part and the darker color cover
ing the lower part of the body and
chassis. The general tone is very SINH
lar to the khaki shade used on army
cars.
