100000 navy RECRUITS
NEEDED FOR NEXT YEAR.
To Take Places Of Those Demobiliz
ed, Capt. Laning Tells House
Committee.

Two hundred thousand men must be
recruited into the Navy next year to
take the places Of those demobilized.
Capt H. Laning, chief Of the bureau
OF navigation, made this estimate to-
day when asking the House naval at
fairs committee for an appropriation
of $12,o00,000 to cover transportation
and recruiting expenses for 1920.
After July 1, 1919, $4,000 men will
be needed in the regular naval force,
Capt. Laning told the committee. The
regular Navy at present has $4,000
men, and 10000 of these enlisted
since the war began, he said-120.000
for four years and $4,000 for the du-
ration OF the war. More than 90 per
cent Of the war recruits have asked
to be discharged, Capt. Laning said,
and the Navy is honorably required to
release them.
THE Navy has made no promises to
release the men who enlisted for four
years." Capt. Laning said. but all
understood they would not be held
after the war ended. Unless they are
released the Navy will be made up of
men and its efficiency
will be lowered"
AS soon as peace terms are signed
the naval reserve force, numbering
100000 men, must be placed on inact-
i've duty, Capt. Lanfng said. When
this occurs the regular naval force
must be increased to 100000 to man
the ships Of the Navy and the ship
ping board, he said.

ARREST OF THREE BOYS.
No Reflection Upon Dunbar High
School Involved in Case.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Your attitude Of hearty support to
all the institutions in the District of
Columbia which are working to ad-
vance it's standing as a better place
to live in was strangely altered in q
news article which appeared in your
columns Monday December 16.
Just why the stigma of an offense
by three boys, at one time in the first
year of the Dunbar School, should be
attached in faring headline to
Dunbar School Pupils is not easy to
understand, nor is it pleasant and
acceptable to the parents, patrons.
pupils and faculty Of the institution.
The fact that a boy or girl is
pupil in an educational institution
and Of good record there may be an
important element in the testimony
for his character. yet in your article
you so present the news as to attach
the odium OF dishonesty in general
to the pupils of the school. Before
these boys are tried or sentenced
your article has been SO written as
to operate against hundreds of col
ored boys who will seek employment
as Dunbar School pupils.
Instead of making the relation of
the three boys to Dunbar School
subordinate matter, or allowing it to
operate in their favor, as is the public
custom respecting pupils in school,
your article is so presented as to
bring the whole school into disrepute.
We most earnestly protest against
this form of unnecessary, unfair and
prejudicial notoriety.

Principal Dunbar High School.
