Admiral Williams Quits
After 43 Years. Service
Naval Officer Retires With
Notable Record of Work
at Sea and Ashore

After moro than forty-thr years Of
active service in the United States
Navy Rear Admiral Charles Sumner
Williams, Supply Corps, will go on the
retired list to-day. He has a record
for service. particularly during the
World War, that has become celebrated
among his fellow officers and IN the
administrative offices at Washington.
In 1914, after long years of duty
both ashore and afloas, Admiral Will
Jams came to this city to command the
provisions and clothing depot and the
naval clothing factory. This is the
agency that was responsible for the
supply of food and c.orhing for the en-
tire naval service, and fellow officers
declared yesterday that it was due to
Admiral Williams's ability that the
nvay was fed and clothed during the
war without breath Of scandal or the
slightest failure.
Ready for All Emergencies
His ability in organization and ad-
ministration," one officer said yester-
day, land his far-sightedness. led him
to make all plans for developme ent
months before the war was declared,
and no emergency ever found his de-
partment unprepared."
The retiring officer was born in the
city sixty-four years ago to-day, and he
began his naval career with an appoint
ment to Annapolis in 1878. He was
commissioned an assistant paymaster
in 1880, since then passing through all
grades of the supply corps and becom-
ing q rear admiral on July /, 1918. He
married Miss Anna Emily Bayard on
Staten Island on December 9. 1885.

Olne.Way Traffic
Will Continue ON
Bridges Despite jam
Inspector O'Brien Con-
vincedS System Is p Practical;
Brooklyn Structure Has
Worst Tie-Up i'm 81 Years

A one.way traffic system on Brooklyn
Bridge failed yesterday, but Inspector
John ]. O'Brien, in charge of traffic,
says that the practicability of the plan
has not been disproved. Under normal
conditions, he believes the one-way
traffic plan will be vast improvement
over the old system.
The bridge was choked yesterday as
1t never has been choked during the
thirty-seven years Of it's history. A
milk truck stalled on the bridge, near
the New York tower, at s o'clock in the
morning. This was the beginning of
troubles that continued throughout the
day.
During the twenty minutes that
workmen labored with the truck east
bound traffic remained blocked in a
long stream that extended as far back
| as Park Row.
Business was trying to catch up after
suspension over Saturday, Sunday and
Labor Day, and Inspector O'Brien
pointed to this as one Of the obstacles
in the way Of complete success for the
| one-way experiment.
Another attempt will be made with
the one-way plan to-day, and the
| scheme will be made permanent unless
experiments, under normal conditions,
show that the idea is not practicable.
The following are the, rules for the
new traffic schedules on the bridges:
Before p. m., on each day, Brook
lyn Bridge is to be used for east-bound
traffic only.
Before 3 p. m, each day, Manhattan
Bridge is to be used for west-bound
traffic only.
West-bound traffic may use the
Williamsburg Bridge from to 10
o'clock each morning, and east-bound
traffic may use it from to p. m.
During the other hours the bridge will
be open for traffic in both directions.

Communists Invite

Pamphlets Distributed at
Meeting i'm Palm Garden
Demand s'Overthrow of
Capitalistic Government

= Incitement to armed revolution" 10
contained in pamphlet distributed last
night at meeting in Palm Garden as
the climax of pronounced Socialistic
and Communistic activities among
B. r. T. strikers.
The circulation Of the pamphlet FOL-
lowed by forty-eight hours the address
of Charles Solomon, sousted Socialist
Assemblyman and honorary member Of
the Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric T,ailway Employees,
in which he said the B. r. T. "would
not dare run cars on Labor Day"
Labor Day was marked by the most
violent and destructive rioting Of the
strike.
The pamphlet circulated last night
says in part:
1--WE, the Communists, are with you
in your battle against your oppres-
sors-the B. r. 7. and the capitalist
state.
Get ready for armed revolution to
overthrow the capitalist government
and create a workers. government-as
your brothers did in Russia. Stop ask
ing merely for a little more wages

ism-the present government of the
United States-and through the soviets
and the proletarian dictatorship take
possession Of the B. r. T. and of every
mill, mine and factory, railroad, field
and farm in the United States.
"The Communist Party of America
sounds the call for revolution-for the
armed uprising of all workers against
the hypocritical capitalists. We stand
for the workers. soviet republic. You
are slaves to-day. You can be free
only by fighting for freedom.

and tigers. Hail to the soviets-the

yes; but strike for the political de-
mand-strike to overthrow the capital

talks from the rear platform Of bis
train, which was run as a special
through the state.
Big business is seeking his defeat,
Governor Cox declared, by contributing
largely to the Republican fund. Large
interests, he asserted, are arrayed al
most solidly against him and are
"leagued wig the Senate oigarchy.
Recails Ropsevelt Fight
To his audience here tonight and
also others en- route, Governor Cox
told of Former President Roosevelt's
fight in 1912 against alleged reaction
ary Republican leaders"
"He led the crusade against vested
interests and political bosses who
served them" said the Governor. "He
name. He named Boss Barnes of New
York, Penrose and Smoot as connecting
links between crooked business and
crooked politics"
Referring to testimony before the
Senate campaign fund investigating
committee OF alleged subscriptions by
large corporations and wealthy indi-
viduals to Mr.. Barnes's Republican
book, Governor Cox continued:
"The same old crowd is back in the
front line. Barnes, who in Roosevelt's
nlHu Was tne J0uaS VI the ParIy, HAS
been made its St. Paul and has been
designated to write the faith Of the
party for the campaign"
Discusses Barnes Book
Reading the names Of the Barnes
book list, the Governor added:
Large sums were pledged to Mr.
it was done with the knowledge and
consent of Senator Harding, the can
didate for these same interests, is
shown by his letter, directed personal
ly to Mr.. Barnes. 1t is also commended
by Boise Penrose, the Pennsylvania
boss. This is Of interest this year, be-
cause the same voices have defied The
voice of the primaries and nominated
a member Of the Senatorial oligarchy
who did not receive a majority vote in
single state primary"
Governor Cox told his audience that
he came as "the preacher of peace,
progress and prosperity"
~ am for the kind Of prosperity"
he explained, "that will enable the
farmer, the business man and the
laborer to get his share, but with no
reserved seat in the government for
big business or special privilege"
Besides seeking an "underhold in
government" Governor Cox DECLARED
large industrial interests desned an
administration which would use force
in industrial disputes, and he reiter-
ated pleas for "the Golden Rule, not
the bayonet," in settling strikes.
The territory visited to-day by Gov
ernor Cox is the scene of sharp fighting
between the Nonpartisan League and
its opponents, and "radicalism" was
discussed by the candidate. Urging
PROGRESS. rather than reaction, he said:
wherever you have despotism you
are going to have revolution. If you
don't cultivate the process of govern
ment you are going to have radicalism.
There are some people in this country
who believe that when radicalism as
serts itself they should lay the hand Of
force upon it, the hand of oppression.
My creed is entirely different. 1t is to
cultivate the principles and the prac-
tices Of good government, and you
won't have radicalism anywhere in the
world"

Many Return, but 100, 900 Still
Are Idle; Governor Takes
Hand i'm Alabama Trouble

wILKES-BARRE, Pa, Sept. .
Delegates representing the anthracite
miners, who for week have BEEN on
vacation, voted unanimously to-day to
continue in idleness. 1t had been ex-
pected there would be general return
to the mines. Coal operators an
nounced that only few thousand men
returned to work to-day. This en-
abled several mines to resume oper-
atoms, but it was estimated that nearly
100000 miners still are idle.
The men are demanding that Presi-
dent Wilson order a reopening Of the
wage inquiry.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Sept. Gov
ernor Kilby has directed the commits
sion named by him to investigate the
differences between coal operators and
union miners in the bituminous fields
Of Alabama to begin at once to take

ers as to the points in, controversy
which led to the issuance of q strike
order, effective tomorrow.

In their attempted negotiations with
Judge Mayer, Mr.. Mahon and his asso-
ciates made Mayor Hylan their ennis

Mayer in his chambers. The Judge
declined to recede from his position
that no proposition emanatink from
any one associated officially with the
Amelgamated would be entertained by
the court.
lie also declined to make any prop
osition for consideration by the asso-
citation ,and reiterated that his propo-
sition to the men, as individuals, was
contained in his letter of September
2 to Mayor Hylan.
Buses Withdrawn
Brooklyn residents were much con-
cerned last night by the withdrawal Of
municipal buses from all streets on
which trolley service had been re-
sumed. The discontinWance of the
emergency service was announced by
Grover A. Whalen, Commissioner Of
Plant and Structures, who also issued
an order prohibiting bus service of
any kind in Brooklyn except on routes
established and supervised by the De-
partment of Plant and Structures.
Brooklyn theatergoers and night
workers contend that the withdrawal
of the emergency service will work a
hardship on them, as there are no troll
leys in operation after dark and they
will have no means Of TRANSPORTATION
to and from their homes.s
The eleven surface lines to be opened
to-day are the Court Street, Hamilton
Avenue, Third Avenue, Fifteenth Street,
Rogers Avenue, Hoyt-Sackett, Ralph.
Rockaway, Cypress Hills, Flushing
Avenue, Calvary Cemetery and Lorimer
Street.
With these additions the company
will have fifty of it's main lines in
operation, which will constitute almost
normal surface service, except for
cross-town lines.
There was no recurrence Of Mon
days violence yesterday and the
sporadic outbursts of car stoning in
various sections Of the city resulted in
no serious damage.
