NAVY RESERVE OFFICERS
MAY Be MADE REGULARS
Those With Rank of Ensign of the
Line May Get Temporary
Appointment.

officers with the rank of ensign of
the line in the naval reserve force
whether on active or inactive duty
may be appointed for temporary
service in the regular Navy under
orders published yesterday by the Navy
Department. Those still on active
duty must be recommended by the
their commandants or commanding
officers and those on inactive duty
may apply direct to the bureau of
navigation.
All officers will be required to pass
a physical examination and must OBJ
ligate themselves to serve for period
of six months after the declaration of
peace. Qualified students now at Of
ficer materials schools also will be ac-
cepted for such appointment on rec
ommendation on or before their grad
uation. Applications from reserve
officers will be received until April 10.
By transferring to the temporary
Navy reserve officers who desire such
service, the department hopes to make
up the shortage resulting from the
enforced release from active duty OF
officers of the reserve force, which
must be completely demobilized i'm
mediately after the declaration of
peace. The appointment of reserve
officers to the temporary establish
ment also may make it possible to re-
lease some of the officers of the tenn
porary force who desire to return now
to civil life.

DEMAND MORE FOOD,
BUT CAN'T PAY IN GOLD
Germans Propose to Get Large
Loans in Neutral Countries.
Securities in Doubt.

PARIS, April 7 Cby the Associated
Press).-4t the conference of the al
lied and German financial experts at
Pont Sainte MaXence Sunday the Ger
mans demanded fresh consignments
of food, and announced that it would
be impossible to continue payments
in gold, says a Havas dispatch.
In order to increase their gold re-
serves they proposed TO issue large
loans in neutral countries, explaining
that Germany's lack of freedom for
commerce prevents the defraying of
the cost of food.
Germany's ability to continue pay
ing for the food shipments made
under the Brussels agreement, it is
learned, cannot be determined before
April Is, when the German govern
ment expects to have a report on the
surrender to the government of Ger
man-owned foreign securities which
is in progress.
The allied financial delegates. mean
while, continue the general discussion
with the German delegation at Senlis
of the value and availability of par
ticular securities. so that when the Ger
man report on surrendered securities is
received it will be easy to calculate to
what extent they can be used in flnanc-
ing food imports.
The export of raw materials from
Germany, which will also play a role
in the payment of food, is in progress
across the German frontier to adja-
cent neutrals, but because OF the dis
turbed Industrial conditions the
amount is rather disappointing.
The German delegates at Senlis per-
sist in their requests that Germany
be given foreign credit, to be used in
purchasing food. There has been no
change, however. in the disposition
of the allies to insist on payment in
cash, securities and exports.

Was Millionaire Proprietor of

NEW YORK. April s.-Frank w.
Woolworth, who started a five-and-
ten-cent store at Utica. N. Y. forty
years ago on a capital of $50. and
eventually became the millionaire
proprietor of great chain of these
stores in the United States, Canada
and England. died suddenly early to-
day at his home. at Glen Cove, Long
Island. In addition to establishing a
business with profits said to be near
ly $S,000,000 year.y. Mr.. Woolworth
built the celebrated ffty-one-story
Woolworth building, in lower New
in the world.
Born on Farm.
He was born on a farm at Rod
man. Jefferson county. N. y. on April
13. 1852. Until he was twenty -one
years old he worked on his fathers 5
farm. obtaining meager education
in the district school and later at a
business college. His first position
was errand boy in dry goods store
and gradually advanced until he be-
came a clerk and salesman, during
which time ne married on a salary
of $3.50 per week. He worked six
various stores before a successful
bargain counter sale gave him the
idea of the possibilities of making
substantial profits from nickel ana
dime purchases.
His idea when broached to his en-
ployers was termed visionary and he
was advised to stick to the "old-fash-
ioned" plan of conducting store
Nevertheless Woolworth was deter
mined to test his plan, and his t1rst
venture was at Utica in 1879. He had
but $50 in cash and gave his personal
note for the goods. In a year he mad
paid off his debt and saved some
money. Closing out his store he To-
Gated at Lancaster. Pa. and establish
ed not only a store, but the founda
ton Of his fortune.
Rapid Rise Business Romance.
His rapid rise from a small pigeon
hole" store to the palatial Woolworth
building in this city-with more than
eight hundred branch stores in the
United States. over sixty in Canada
and England-forms one of the most
interesting business romances In the
history of the world. The business
was incorporated several years ago
for $65. 100000.
In addition to being president of the
firm of F. w. Woolworth q Co., he
was the director of a number of bank
and business enterprises here. He
maintained a residence on 9th avenue
noted for it's rare paintings, also
