Of Theft.

District Attorney Swami announced
yesterday that he will do everything in
his power TO prevent the grant OF an
honorable discharge from the Army to
Corporal Allen ]. Wilson. for whom.
as William Lustgarten, the District At
torney holds an indictment for grand
larceny. Lustgarten. whose disappear
ance with the announced intention OF
committing suicide preceded the dlscov-
cry OF large shortages in the Tax Lien
Company, OF which he was President,
returned to the United States yesterday
on the transport Mongolia.
Army officers say that there Is moth
ing In his army record to warrant the
Withholding Of his honorable discharge.
The District-Attorney. who says Lust
garten's indictment Ia based on a Tong
chain OF thefts." fears that the dis
charge will influence unduy any Jury
before which Lustgarten is tried. The
Army replies that n man must be con-
vfcted of crime. not merely accused Of

can be invalidated. The Dlstrict-At-
torney replies that he wants TO try
Lustgarten before the certificate Of an
honorable military career is conferred
on him.

Camp Upton for discharge. with Detec-

claim that the Government vouches for
his good character. I'd like to try him
before he gets IT,"
Lustgarten disappeared in August
1917. Many persons, it is asserted, most
OF them OF small means, suffered as the
result OF their business with his COM
pany. After enlisting at Fort I.eaven-
worth he was sent to France, where he
served in three different outfits, each
time carrying q good military record
with him.
Lustgarten also will be recalled as one
OF the leaders who issued the call for
Americans OF German extraction TO
stand by this Government and the Presi-
dent as far back as 1915. He organized
the Loyal America League among Ger
1nan-Americans. This sent out much
literature calling on Americans OF Teu-
Ton descent to support our country In
every way"

the summer of 1914 In Glenn Curtiss'
seaplane, the America. The big flying
boat will be unioaded here and shipped
to Harbor Grace. fifty miles down the
coast near Cape Broyle.
Major Arthur Partridge Raffas. adj
vance agent for Col. Porte. came to the
city to meet the big seaplane after in
speeding the site Of Porte's base at Cape
Broyle. He said that the beach is In
fine shape. despite the storms OF the
winter, for use as take-off spot for
the seaplane.
Conflicting reports about conditions
at sea reached the British flyers to-day.
The British Air Ministry's meteorolog-
lists said there was good weather in
midocean, while ships which were there
reported firmly by wireless that there
was not An easterly gale with storm
indications was sweeping along, the
wireless reports said.
Harry Hawker, the Australian who
hopes to fly across In a one motored
Sopwith biplane, expressed the opinion
that the full moon Of May II probably
would see the fiers on their way. The
moon would be of great assistance In
night flying. he said. and added that
Raynham and he probably would hop of
about the same time.
A new devlce-a throat transmitting
telephone-has been added by Hawker
to the equipment OF his plane This tele-
phone makes conversation between pilot
and navigator easy despite the roar Of
the motor. The principle Is the trans
mission of the vibrations of the throat
by means Of a band about II and the
shutting or. OF the engine noises by per-
hitting the roar to beat with equal force
on both sides OF the transmitting dia-
phragm. 1t is similar TO that used by
the American tank soldiers during the
war.
Capt. Charles w, +. Morgan, navigator
for Raynham, hearing OF the latest adj
dition to Hawker's equipment laughed
and announced that owing TO the fact
| that the cockpit OF tho Maftinsyde ma
chine already looked like a Christmas
tree" with its multitudinous devices. the
new telephone would not be adopted.
Lieut.. J. l.. owen OF the United States
Navy arrived at St. Johns to-day to re-
turn a call made by Governor Harris

 The company has issued the follow ing notice to it's employees:
 For many months we have been at- tentively watching the trend toward the 4S-hour week. We have felt that we could not go to this short week until our competitors have done so, There are still a large number of silk manufacturers who are running 90 or more hours per week, but it is not our wish to be the last one to adopt new ideas and we have. therefore, de- cided, commencing the week of June 30. to run the plant, fS hours per week
 The hours will be 7.e0 to F, 1 to 5. Although working two hours less per week day workers will receive the same amount as before. In order to equalize the reduction in time for piece workers an increase of approxi- mately 5 per cent. will be made in the rates.
 | Those who advocate the shorter week for workers have maintained l that they can do more work in less hours, because they are in better health. have more time for recreation and do not get so tired. as when they l work longer hours. We are not sure that this will prove to be .the case, but l hope you will show us that you car turn out as much perfect goods 1T 4S hours as you have formerly turned out in 50. e=.4s:f-e.s !
