Hall, whose home address is 107 Fifth street, states that he has received his promotion from second class engineer to first class, which itself speaks well for the ambitious qualities of the young man, as he entered the service in 1917 as a second class seaman.
 What. came near being a serious ac- cident Saturday evening at the Eighth street crossing was averted by quick thinking on the part of a driver of one of the large trucks that are haul ing sand to the old air plant in Taft vile. The ' o'clock train was late and when the truck pulled over the crossing in trying to make the hill. which was very icy, he stalled his en- zine. The train was coming and was about to Tenth street.

TREASURY SILVER
TO BRITAIN in
FAR EAST TRADE
By DAVID LAWRENCE.
CContinze.I from First Page.)


drawing out tf circulation silver cer-
tihcates to the same amount, the to-
tai amount of silver bullion in the
world will be tremendously in
creased. America can advance silver
to Great Britain to help her buy war
materials in India, and nothing is
lost by the transaction. For the
Treasury merely will borrow from it
self.
When the s5o.O6O.OOo dollars have
gone into the melting pot and the
price OF silver has been fixed at q
dollar an ounce the production OF
silver undoubtedly will increase at
once.
For. while labor and other costs
have risen, the price Of q dollar an
ounce will be attractive. Should Il
prove too profitable to some promo
ters. OF course. II viii come back 10,
the Government in the form OF excess
profits taxes. BY limiting the amount
that can be exported, producers will
be forced 20 sell to the United States
Government, and the Treasury will
repurchase later on at 81 an ounce
some OF the newly produced silver and
recon standard dollars ,therefrom.
Raymond T. Baker, director OF the
mint. has been working on the plan
Tor many months in conference with
Western Senators of both parties and
the pending bill Is expected, there
fore, to pass without serious opposi-
ton. Nothing like this has ever been
proposed before but war calls for eX-
traordinary measures.
Lord Reading, the British ambas-
sador, has been appealing q the
United States for some time 70 help
the allies on their silver situation,
and the ingenious scheme of making
a temporary loan from its own vaults
was hit upon by the Washington
Government as the best means OF
stabflizing the silver market through
out the whole world
In this way, big quantity Of silver
which has been serving no useful
purpose becomes available for a d.
rest war us. To meet the contrac-
tion in silver certificates, Federal re-
serve bank notes in small denomina-
tions are to be issued. but retired as
soon as the silver is repurchased and |
silver certificates are once more sent
into circulation. What is proposed |
Is, OF course. q temporary measure, /
but il illustrates the close unity |
among the allies and the hitherto un- |
dreamed OF ways in which the funds I
Of the Government are being used to /
stabilize credit among the partners iu |
the war for democracy.

TO be installed by Sunday morning a

signs In Suburbs.
In the suburban sections OF the
District, where tfolleys replace the
underground conduit. the yellow
signs will be attached to trolley
poles. In some parts OF the city
these trolley poles are in the mid
die OF the street. while in others
they are en- the sides.
In locating the place where you are
to get on. 70 head for the heart OF
the city. Il viii be wise for you TO
pay attention TO the signs indicating
where you will want TO get on when
returning 20 your homes in the
afternoon and evening. The signs
viii be on the opposite side OF the
street. OF course. You will in that
way know how 20 save yourself some
distance in walking.
The general theory OF the skip
stop" scheme is that IL you get On
the cars at your usual place in the
morning you will probably be taken
a block beyond or a. block short OF
your customary destination.
The s-Car Stop" signs will not
necessarily be at the snear side" %
street crossings. They may be at the
@far side" or even in the middle, OF
3 block. The signs are not as large
as they might be, but IL you are look
ing for them you will not have to use
glasses.
FInIsh Work By sunday.
The street railway companies in
tend 70 have the slender iron rods in
the sidewalks by Saturday morning
and all that day and night they will
have squads Of men affxing the signs.
They have promised the Utilities Com
mission to have the signs all in by
Sunday morning.
As q further aid to passengers the
street car companies have had pam
phiets printed for the information OF
conductors and motormen giving the
stopping places. Conductors are to
have these along so as to answer ques-
tions- as 70 stopping places. The
chances are that the conductors will
not have the information down pat to
start with and the safest thing is to
learn for yourself.

Traction and Washington Railway
and Electric cars in the congested
parts OF the city are not changed,
those stops having been made eftec-
tive some time ago. They are pretty
familiar to most patrons OF the lines
now, removing possible confusion as
to the right getting on" places. The
new program OF stops applies to por-
tions of the city beyond the congested
districts.
The street cars are carrying large
posters describing the ''c9r Stop"
signs and stating that stops Will be
made only at the points so marked.
Fuel Administrator Garheld's as
sistants will watch the operation Of
the new Washington system closely 10
determine whether IL Is going to save
coal, as has been predicted. II the
demonstration is satisfactory the
"skip-stop" may become a national af-
fair with street railways, under direc-
tion OF Mr.. GARFIELD.
( Washington is the largest city In
the country where the "skip-stopH
plan has been installed over all rail
every inhabitant
1t is being tried on few lines in
Baltimore, and 10 per cent of st.
Louis Car lines have adopted it.
Cleveland and Kansas City operate
under II entirely.
So Washington is to set the pace
for the country, and become an OBJ
ject lesson for the Fuel Adminlstra-
ton. Mr.. Beeler claims that 1000
tons OF coal will be saved here each
month.
Big saving Of Time.
Afr. Beeler's mathematical brain
has reached the conclusion that $780,
900 hours of time will be saved each
year to Washington people by the
skip-stop. He declares that each pas
senger win save three minutes time
on each trip. The two local COM
panies carry 15O.O00.000 passengers a
year. In one years time, he says.
the people viii save eighty-fiye years
OF time
This. with the time TO be garnered
by daylight saving, Is presumed to
put Washington at the top of the
list OF world cities in having extra
hours for business or pleasure.
