Searchlight Drills Also Start Public
Impressions Of War.

Explosives used by the George A.
Fuller Company to demolish stone
columns taken from the front OF the
Treasury Department years ago and
stored on q lot near goth and B streets
have made noises during the past two
days suggestive Of war times. Unable
to understand the meaning of the
heavy detonations, persons in all parts
of the city made anxious inquiries of
the police to learn the cause Of ap-
parent bombardment.
A practice saarchlight drill at the
Army War College was the means of
throwing bright lights in all direc-
tions last night. The cloudy condi-
tions made 1t easy for them to be seen
many miles distant. The appearance
of the lights sweeping in all directions
caused as many inquiries as did the
noises of the explosions. None Of the
inquirers seemed able to draw on their
imaginations to the extent of believ-
ing German Zeppelin raiders had

Board Of Trade Committee Discusses
Advisability of Postponement.

The movement to obtain postponement
until after the war of the alley law,
which would turn $4,000 alley inhaoi-
tants out into the city at a time when
every available dwelling is occupied. Is
being considered by the committee on
streets and avenues of the Board OF
Trade at the rooms of the board this
afternoon.
Unless Congress intervenes. the law
becomes effective on July 1. The Emer-
gency Housing Association has been or
Eanized to interest private capital to
build small dwellings. but 1t is the gem
erai belief that enough houses could not
be completed In time to prevent a seri-
Gus situation when the law goes into
effect.
The Council Of National Defense has
recognized the possible results. and is
considering asking the President to use
his influence to have the law postponed
until after the war or until provision
can be made for the alley dwellers.
