THREE FALSE ALARMS

The fire department was kept on
the go Monday, Halloween night,
when three false alarms in as many
hours were turned in. Although the
boxes in several sections of the city
were watched it appears as though
the work was done by a couple of
pretty well organized mischief MAX
ers who doubtless handled every one
of the jobs.
The police are on the watch out for
parties who obtain such curious pleas
ure in seeing the trucks racing
through the streets, at the risk of the
lives of the firemen and the destruc-
ton of $4,000 worth of fire en-
CINE. Every trip made by the
trucks and firemen on useless err
rands such as these cost the city
money, it is estimated that the three
little runs made Monday for the gra-
LITIGATION of some practically joker
with a perverted sense of humor cost
the city close to $3.50. Several per-
sons who claim to have seen people
lettering in the vicinity of the fire
alarm boxes a few minutes before the
alarms went in, state that the par
ties were not children.

HALLOWEEN PARTY
WAS BIG SUCCESS

On Monday night the Y. w. c. A.
was transformed into vivid scene of
witchery for the Halloween party
given by the Business and Profession
al WOmen's Club.
After a curious array Of ghosts,
witches and hob-gobIins had arrived,
a friendly witch escorted the crowd
into the chamber of Horrors" The
''gym" had turned into a forsakeD
graveyard, haunted by the fiercest
kind of creatures. A grinning Che
shire cat and black devil prowled
around among the leaves while the
guests were seated in a large circle.
The only lights were Jack-o-Lanterns
Wierd souvenirs were passed around.
Miss Florence Boudreau was
awarded the prize as the best witch
and Mr.. III. G. Bridges the best
ghost. Various games were played
in accordance with the traditions of
after which 'Imp's
Drink" and Devils Food" were
served which proved to be delicious
chocolate and cake.

Undoubtedly" continued the Secre-
tary, there has been and will be a tre-
mendous development in the construc-
tion Of air craft and submarines, but in
my opinion IL would be fatal mistake
to scrap one hundred million dollars
worth OF ships, simply because 1t is the
Judgment of some men that these vessels
have become obsolete as a result of the
experience gained by the late world war.
Probably by December next the
United States Government will be in bet
ter position and in possession of more
policy toward disarmament and naval
programmes, so that it will be able to
formulate policy of future action. But
/ am opposed to any discontinuance of
our naval programme at this time. The
navy of the United States, IL it Is to
keep pace with those of the other coun-
tries of the world, will require all types
of vessels which can be used for any
purpose that may be required III time

In the opinion of Secretary of the
Navy Daniels. the United States Govern
ment should not, at the present time,
suspend its activities in shipbuilding for
even a six months period in order to de-
termlne. under the terms of the Borah
resolution passed BY the Senate yester-
day. the kind Of naval programme TO
be adopted.
Secretary Daniels announced to-day
that he has called upon the General
Board OF the Navy. the Bureau of Opera
tions and the Intelligence Bureau for a
complete report and recommendations
upon this question and that he hopes to
have the findings and recommendations
Of these various branches of the navy in
his hands early in February.
I'm my judgment" said the Secretary
to-day, "the navy must continue to con-
struct all kinds OF ships. including battle
cruisers, aircraft, Submarines and first
class battlehips. 1t may be that some
twenty years hence our naval pro-
gramme as decided upon may have to
be changed by world events, but there is
nothing at the present time that calls for
any abandonment of the policy already
outlined"

What occurs shows that many of the
members Of the House are dead
against the present plan, which, 1t
was supposed, by co.ordinating ap-
preparations. might effect great econ
omies.
"If opposition to the plan continues
to manifest itself in the manner
stated, apparently it will be neces-
sary to redistribute the power OF ap-
preparation among the standing COM
mfttees or else modify the existing
rule. Perhaps the abandonment Of
the single committee plan might not
prove in any sense an evil when
a budget bureau is created. If it can
be assumed that the estimates of the
bureau presented to Congress will be
made up on a careful minimum. rath-
err than on an extravagant maximum,

aside from the manner in which
the supply bills suffer from points

now prevails is occasioned. in part.

SOLDIERS HO[DUP
MOTORS IN SEARCH
Walter Reed Men Stop ALL
Cars at Night Looking for !.
Escaped Prisoner. T;
USE LIGHTS AND PISTOLS
Autoists Express Indignation, Hav-
ing Been Alarmed by What Ap-
peared to Be Bandits.

Indignation is being expressed to-
day by many Washington motorists
who were held up at the point of pis-
tolls last night on 18th street extend!
ed and on Alaska avenue in the vicin.
ity Of Walter Reed Hospital by sol-
diers from the hospital searching for
an escaped patient.
One motorist, G. Adams Howard, re-
ports that while returning to the city
from a trip through Maryland about
II o'clock last night his attention was
attracted by several men in the mid
die of the road flashing a light as a
signal to stop. Thoughts of the re-
cent holdups flashed through the driv-
er's mind. leaving him in a dilemma
whether to speed by or to draw out d
pistol he had in his automobile for
protection. ?
However. upon drawing closer. he
saw that the men were soldiers,
whereupon he slowed down and came
to stop opposite them Two of the
soldiers with pistols levelad at the oc.
cupants of the car approached and in
commandatory tones demanded, who
is in the back of your car" Not satis-
fed with being told that there was no
one in the back of the machine, one OF
the soldiers opened the door Of the
automobile and flashed his light in
pack 1nen, apparently SauSleu. tne
soldier said. "All right, drive on. We
were looking for an escaped pris-
oner.'
Mr.. Howard experienced the same
annoyance farther on. near the en-.
trance on 18th street to Walter Reed
grounds. This time he was stopped
by two soldiers. one of whom pointed
his AS automatic at him.
Mai l.. w. webb. one of the COM
manding officers at Walter Reed Hos
pital. speaking Of the occurrence last
night, told a Star reporter today that
he greatly regretted the matter and
had ordered strict investigation so
that the affair would not happen
again. The offenders will be severely
reprimanded. he said.
Maj Webb stated that there was an
escaped prisoner. but no soldier had
the authority to stop any automobile
on the public highway and. needless
to say. no authority to display arms.
The man they were looking for was
soldier who had escaped from the
guardhouse. where he had been con.
fined for absence without leave.
