 There are approximately 15 Ala bama men attached to the Second naval district qualified and desiring to vote on November g." says the tcle- gram from the commandant. "Infor- nation is requested by dispatch as to what arrangements are being made by your office, if any. to furnish ballots to these men"

Eliminate Unnecessary Parcels

Every effort is being made by
the war department to reduce the
quantity of unnecessary parcels
sent to American soldiers in
France by relatives and friends.
Hereafter no exception will be
made to the rule that parcels
when presented to postoffices, ex-
press companies or freight sta
tons for shipment must be accom-
panied by written request from
the soldier approved by a major
or higher commanding officer.
Persons connected with the Y. M.
G. A., the Red Cross, or other or
CARNATIONS in France must make
a request for articles in a similar
manner, the approval Of an exec
utive officer of the organization
being necessary in such case.
About 1000 letters in which re-
quests are made for permission to
send parcels to France have been
received daily recently by the adj
jutant general S office.
In the future letters will be re
turned to the sender without ac-
ton. Parcels with the proper APP
proval by the authorities in
France will be received at post
offices, express companies or
freight stations without any re-
ference to the adjutant generals
office.
Relatives and friends will find
they often can do a greater ser
vice to soldiers by sending them
money for the purchase of ar
ticles in France than by forward
ing the articles. Tobacco is now
being supplied as part of the
army rations. Merchandise of
practically all kinds can be pur-
chased in France through gen.
eral store established by the quar-
termaster corps.
The restrictions governing the
shipment Of parcels do not apply
to newspapers and magazines.
These can be mailed without any
request from the intended recipi-
ent and without military appro-
val.

The bodies of Amplotz and Bessler
were recovered this morning, accord
ing to reports received from the scene

The city post Office today appealed
to men of Washington to come to

Only eighty applications have been
made to take the clerk-carrier ex-

are to be admitted women who desire
to become carriers.
Nearly all the eighty applicants are
now employed as temporary clerks

the number of applicants largely in
creases, the examination in August
will not help much.
With entrance salaries raised to ST.

Of 800 every year for five years, it
was hoped that the examination
would attract scores of applicants for
the positions.

stated to the Associated Press corre-
spondent that he had been greatly
impressed with the pulling together
of the British and American naval
units into one efficient anti-submarine
operating force without either losing
any feature of its identity.
THE word .co-operation' has been
worked overtime" he said, but the
word means just that and more here.
Our fiotilla is Just as much unit as
when it arrived or could be at a base
where there were no other ships. The
same may be said of the British. Yet
ali are working together under a
British admiral. who has the .admira-
tion of every officer OF the fleet"
The members of the party were
guests ut luncheon of the American
feet commander and then saw Ameri-
can bluejackets fitting out several
giant seaplanes, watched torpedo
overhauling. went over the extensive
athletic grounds and viewed other ac-
tivities at the base. The party left
early in the evening.
The forces here have done effec-
tive work with a combination of Brit
ish experience of three years. Ameri-
can willingness to learn, ability to
grasp conditions and determination to
succeed" continued the assistant sec
,retary. THE spirit Of the men and
officers is impressive, both regarding
their own work and their cooperation
with the British high command"
Mr. Roosevelt was happy over the
fact that the highest British naval
authority had journeyed to the base
on an American destroyer, and said
that he believed that the days inspec-
tion was worth more than many days
