RESIDENTS WILL HELP
FORM BUILDING ZONES

The cooperation of the residents
of all sections of the District will be
invited by the newly created coming
commission when 1t begins the task
of laying off the city into height, use
and area districts for building pur-
poses. This was indicated today by
Engineer Commissioner kutz, chair
man of the commission.
The Commissioner said the first
step of the commission. probably will
be to outline tentative policy show
ing the number of districts to be
designated and the restrictions that
will apply to building operations in
each of these classes OF districts.
This tentative plan. the Commits
sioner said, could then be made pub
lie in order to give the people an OPP
portunity to study ii and make sug-
Eestions to the commission.
The law provides that before any
districts are formally designated the
commission shall hold public hearings
at which the property owners affected
may voice their approval or disap-
proval.
The purpose of the law is to pro-
vide for a more orderly and attractive
growth of the city by specifying the
sneighborhoods that shall be for In
dustriai plants, for other business es-
tablishmen and for residences. The
zones laid out also would regulate
the height Of buildings in each neigh
borhood.

EXPERT CONDEMNS
RISE IN COAL PRICE
Chairman of Strike Settle
ment Commission Terms
Increase "Inexcusable."

Present "skyrocketing" of bitumi-
nous coal prices is 'inexcusable on
any theory of supply and demand or
other economic principle" Chairman
Robinson of the bituminous coal
strike settlement commission declared
in a statement issued here today
through the secretary of the commits
sion. The increase is "out of all re-
lation." Mr.. Robinson said. to the In
crease in cost of production caused
by higher wages recommended for the
mine workers by the commission.
Since reports of the geological sur
vey show that production in the first
three months of this year was de
cidedly in excess of last years pro-
duction," Mr.. Robinson said, there was
every reason to believe" that pro-
duction is in excess of the market
demand.
He declared that with operators
looking forward to the possibility Of
huge exports of bituminous coal in
the coming year. dealers, in order to
make sure of their stocks against an
apprehended shortage. were engaged
in 'frenzied bidding up of prices
which at this time is entirely un-
justified"
Declaring that docking and shipping
facilities place very real limitation"
on the amount of coal that can be ex-
ported from this country. Mr.. Robin
son predicted that not more than 10,-
10000 tons, or 2 per cent of the total
production, would be sent overseas
this year.
A contributing factor in present
high prices, he declared. is the fact
that many high-cast production
mines. which have been "able to op-
crate only because of war conditions"
are making a last effort to obtain
what they can"

HOUSE BILL OM|TS
NEEDED ADDITIONS
! TO WATER SYSTEM
while Retaining Increased
Rate Provision, It Kills
/ Benefits Thereof.

When the House passed the District
appropriation bill it retained the pro-
vision for a 25 per cent increase In
water rates, but omitted from the bill
three large items for new trunk mains
which the increased rate was intended
70 cover.
1t is estimated that the proposed in
crease of 25 per cent in the water rate
would cost the private residents of the
District more than 100000 a year.
The three new projects which were
Stricken from the bill would cost
$230.000. They are: For a new main
from Chevy Chase Circle to Georgia
D main from Illinois avenue and Grant
Circle to Georgia avenue and Military
road. $4,000. and for new twelve-inch
$nain under F. street from 9Th to 14th
etreets northwest.
Regarded n Imperative.
The Commissioners regard these
three items as Imperative. And while
they feel that this work should be car
ried out, even If it has to be met by
an increase in water rates. they believe
it should be appropriated out of the
general revenues, as are other capital
expenditures.
AT the hearings on the District bill
before the District subcommittee of the
House appropriations committee En-
gineer Commissioner Kutz said the Com
missioners have no objection to an in
crease in water rates if a study shows
that the present rates are inadequate.
But to finance large extensions out of
rates to be paid by the present consum-
ers of water next year would not be
fair, the Commissioner testified.
Would Aid Walter Reed.
There is strong reason why at least
the first two of these extensions should
be appropriated for on the half-and- half
plan. as are the other capital eXpendi-
lures. II is a fact that the proposed
mains from Chevy Chase Circle to
Georgia avenue and from Grant Circle
to Georgia avenue are intended to i'm
prove the water service to Walter Reed
Hospital. as well as to the surrounding
residents.
The third project. for a twelve-inch
main under F street is badly needed to
insure better fire protection to business
property in that vicinity.
Since the United States and District
governments, using half of all the water
consumed in the city. pay nothing for
their water. the private consumers of
water would bear the full cost of these
large extensions if they should be financ-
ed by an increase in rates.

milk PR|CE-F|X|NG
| ISSUE DISCUSSED
Or. H. W. Wiley Testifies Be-
fore House Committee
Hearing.

The question of producers and dis
tributers fixing the price of milk in
Washington was discussed at the
hearing today on milk legislation be-
fore a subcommittee of the House Dis
trict committee.
Charles w. Darr. an attorney repre-
senting H. L. Blake and other milk
shippers, questioned DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley. who represents the Virginia
Maryland milk producers. whether his
organisation had tried to fix the price
of milk in Washington. DR.. Wiley re-
piled that his association was for the
protection of the legitimate interests
of its members.
Mr.. Darr produced a letter address
ed to members Of the association un-
der date Of March IL, 1918. and signed
by George Y. Boxer, as secretary of
the association. In this letter it was
stated that certain dealers were cut
ting the price of milk as fixed by the
association, and all members were
called upon to assist in getting the
price the association asked.
DIR. Wiley explained that his activi-
ties were entirely in regard to legis-
lative matters affecting the associa-
tion, but gave as his opinion that
the latter Is perfectly just and proper
He explained that a committee stud
led the cost of production and then
fixed the price by adding a 10 per
cent profit, which he thought was a
very just proceeding.
Mr.. Darr desired to be heard fur
ther. but Representative Moore of Vir
ginia, who is the author of two of the
bills under consideration, told Mr.
Oarr he would have chance later tt
take up the commercial aspect of the
proposed legislation.
DR.. Wiley advocated the grading o.
milk. DR.. w. C. Fowler. Distric
health officer, discussed pasteurizatior
as an additional safeguard. He sail
culin test would be a step backward.

new ADRIATIC PROPOSAL
IGNORES UNITED STATES
Report Of Effort by Lloyd George
Confirmed by Serbian
Quarter.

LONDON. April 10.-Reports that a
new basis OF settlement of the Adri-
attic question has been proposed by
Premier Lloyd George. on which the
advice of the United States was not
solicited, were confirmed by an au-
thoritative Serbian quarter this morn
ing.
PARIS, April 9.-Denial is made by
the Serbian legation here of the state
ment that an agreement has been
reached on the Adriatic question.
A Geneva dispatch printed here yes
terday gave q telegram from Trieste
as authority for the statement that
the Italo-Jugoslav commission. which
had been in consultation regarding
an Adriatic settlement, had reached
an agreement under which Italy was
to obtain sovereignty over Fiume.
The proposals are characterized by
Serbian partisans as the most ac-
ceptable yet advanced, but the an
nouncement that they have been
definitely accepted by the Italo-
Serbian conferees Is said to be pre-
mature.
There are very good grounds for
believing that an end will be put to
this tangle at the San Reno confer
ence next week." said the Associated
Press informant. THE British pro-
posals cannot be accepted intact, but
there are indications that the two
nations most Intimately interested
are prepared to make what small con-
cessions are required in order to
render them mutually satisfactory"

ASKS SUGGESTIONS
FOR NAVY CHANGES
Senate Committee Broadens
Scope of Work Despite
Democrats Protests.

Over the protest of the democratic
members, the Senate committee in
vestigating the Sims-Daniels dispute
decided today to broaden the scope
Of it's work to include suggestions for
the reorganization of the Navy De-
partment-
Senator Pittman. democrat, Nevada,
strenuously objected to the examina-
ton Of Rear Admiral F. F.. Fletcher
by Chairman Hale to develop reor-
ganization suggestions, declaring that
the committee had no authority to go
into such a matter.
Chairman Hale declared that the
committee was authorized to in
vestigate anything connected with the
Navy Department, and when Senator
Pittman persisted a vote was taken.
The two democrats present voted
against extending the inquiry, and
the two republicans voted in favor OF
doing so. Chairman Hale then cast
the deciding vote.
Senator Pittman announced that he
would carry his protest to the full
naval committee Immediately. If the
inquiry We're extended as proposed
he said, the committee would be In
session 'the rest of the year."

RAIL TRANSPORTATION
Strike Brings
Train Changes

What is believed to be the first To-
cal reflection of the switchmens
strike in New York and elsewhere in
the country was seen today at the
Union station in the issuance by the
Pennsylvania railroad of orders
changing the operation of trains be-
tween Washington and New York on
that road.
ANY extra cars will be attached
to regular trains, which will be filled
to their capacity" read the order
which went into effect today. THAT
no extra trains will be run for over
flow travel nor will extra cars in
clude extra parlor or sleeping cars
between Washington and New YORK.
Sleeping cars from points south
for New York. arriving at Washing
ton during the daytime will stop at
Washington. Passengers in such cars
to use trains originating at Wash
ington."
These changes in operation, it is be-
lieved by officials of the Washington
terminal. will not materially discom-
mode the public. There will be some
reduction in the number Of cars, how
ever, and for the time being daylight
sleepers will be eliminated and pas
sengers will be required to use trains
originating at the Union station in
stead of going through to New York
on these daylight sleepers.
Terminal officials this afternoon had
received no memoranda of changes
from any of the other railroad com
panies which come into Union station,
but were expecting changes in oper-
ating service from the other roads
later.
AS far as could be ascertained this
afternoon there had been no other ef-
feet In this city from the switchmen's
trouble in other cities.
So far there was no apparent letup
In the inflow of passenger traffic at
Union station. Travel has not been
restricted.
Shipment Of food into this city al
ready is affected by the strike, accord
ing to statement made today by Of
flcials of the Pennsylvania and Ealti-
more and Ohio freight offices.
The delay in transportation here has
not reached any serious proportion as
yet. but it is the opinion of the rail-
way officials that II the strike con-
tinues tojncrease the situation will
become serious.
