was addressed to the Public Utilities

During the discussion it was shown
that Takoma Park is without street
car service from S:25 to 9:04 o'clock
in the morning. A communication
from the street railway company was
read in which it was stated that
every effort is being made to improve
the service.

JUGOSLAVS DROP
CLAIM TO TRIESTE
To Avoid Trouble Will Con-

CITE PRESIDENTS POINTS
BY HERBERT COREY.

ZAGREB. Croatia. February 20 (by
maiD.-In the conflict between the
Italians and the Jugoslavs for the pos
session Of the Dalmatian coast unin-
formed persons are apt to see only the
fact that there are many ports on the
eastern side of the Adriatic. Hence
the suggestion is often made:
Divide the coast. Give Italy a part
and Jugoslavia part. Then both will
be happy"
This is vigorously combated by the
Jugoslavs. The only two ports of any
Importance, because the only two
which offer a feasible means of tap
ping the rich hinterland, are Trieste
ana Fiume. The others are barred
from the country behind by the Di-
mario Alps. 1t is true that railroads
could be run from the coast to the
hinterland-just as one now taps Bos-
MA from Ragusa-but the building Of
each would be an engineering feat
comparable to that of the Denver
and Rio Grande. They would be cost
ly to build and extravagant to operate.

italian Taxes Heavy.

Every one knows" say the Slavs,
that Italian politics is becoming an
explosive mixture The average Ital-
ian citizen pays out 35 per cent of his
income to the government in direct
or indirect taxes. He is grumbling
enough now. Or does the italian gov
cont Slav population Of Dalmatia in
order to enter upon a militaristic
career?
To which the italian reply. as it has
been made to me. is that If Italy is
coast and is thereby able to handle
the commerce for the new Jugoslav
state the added cost Of militarism will
be fieabite. In the meantime Italy
Is assuming all the airs Of conquer

"The women who have been

groups of six or eight beginning
January 15, and according to our
information they were dismissed
without notice. In fact, we are

the women were to be laid off.
they were told by the station Of

and the answer was that those
remaining would be retained. In
no case, SO far as we have learn
ed, were the women notified of
their dismissal until the day it
took effect.

The women were required to
I buy uniforms, which although ord
fered in September, were not reeeiv-
led until December, about the time
they were told they were to re-
main in their jobs. Each woman,
we understand, has had to have
two or three uniforms since that
time, for which about $14 has
been, withheld from her pay. The
