Alexandria Pioneers turned out
unanimously last night at the

tie fact that every troop in the city
was generously represented, even
though some of them are practically
without leaders. st. Paul's Troop

but others were close seconds. Vir-
ginia Troop, No. ,, which has beer
so we'll directed by Paul Wade has
lost its leader through removal, but
R P. Henderson has taken the troop
and tic boys are sure Of such COM
petert leadership in the future.
Milton Stonnell, leader Of Daniel
Boone No. 2, has accepted few
new members into his troop and adj
d;ticnal leaders are ching sought in
the VI. E. South Sunday School in
order to accommodate the other boys
who wish to become pioneers. Rep
resentatives were present from Grace

asking that troops be formed in
those schools.

Seek Airship From British

1t is expected that the British gov
crnment will be asked to turn one Of
its rigid airships oTcr to the United
States to replace the dirigible ZR-2
which crashed recently in England
with loss of Al lives. In all proba-
bility one Of the three German air
ships turned over to the British un-
der the terms Of the armistice will be
requested The proposal is to be made
in connection with the financial settle
mcnt between the American and Brit
ish governments over the loss Of the
ZR-2.
The proposal for the turning over
Of the German airships has not been
formally placed before the British and
will not be until after the burial OF
those who were killed in the disaster
which bcfell the ZR-2. The bodies Of
the Americans who were lost will
reach the United States the last Of
this week and the funerals will be
held few days later.

Unemployment Conference

1t is the expectation that President
Harding, when he returns to the
White House after his short vacation
at Atlantic City and aboard the May
flower will make public the list OF
delegates to the forthcoming confer
ence on unemployment. 1t is believed
that between thirty and forty dele,
gates will be selected from various
sections Of the country representing
various groups such as employers Of
labor and representatives Of labor.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover,
who is with the President on his latest
outing is making n careful canvass Of
available men to fill the various posts
and it is the hope that highly practl-
ca! benefits vii! result from the gather
ing. Within the last week or ten days
according to officials at the Depart
ment of Labor, the labor situation
throughout the country has somewhat
improved. The increase in employ
mont, however is slow.

Mayor Duncan Today Of
fered Money for Their
Arrest and Conviction
TO STIMULATE SEARCH
Police Seek Motive for Crime-Fires
Battle AuthCritics-All Clews Fur
nished Are Investigated.

A reward of $500 for the arrest
and conviction e TIE raIty or part
ie. guilty of b1,7 ~g the warehouse
of the Virginia Shipbuilding Corpo-
ration and the warehouse of the Mu-
tue Ice Company, where government
property was stored, today was OF
fered by Mayor James H. Duncan.
Tie offering o. i!,ia reward will
# is expected pour the activities OF
those in search OF the suspected fire
bugs which caused the two disastrous
blaZcs Saturday night.
TIE authorities thus, it is sta
ted. ere without any ctews as to "a
motive for the fires. If some ac-
tive motive could be ascribed they
would nave something tangible to
work on they contend.
Hope of capturing the arson SQUAD
has not yet been abandoned and IN
fact the authorities now are more
datrcmined than ever to run down
ten guilty ones 4 I'd every available
clew is being run to earth by those
engaged in tha task. There are
several new angles in connection
with these two fires that the authori-
ties are now working or which may
result in something definite it is
stated. Those handling the case are
confident that these two fires were
nor the result Of spite work.
With a lack Of motive thus far for
these fires the pc!ice are more per-
picked than ever in the case. The
reward Of the Mayor it is believed
will greatly help in running down
clews. Each new clew submitted is
being carefully Investigated but thus
far all have been eliminated.

Are After Tax Dodgers.

Internal Revenue Commissioner
Blair announces that the government
has uncovered wholesale delinquencies
among large tax payers who have
used inflated values on invested capi-
tai to underestimate their true LA
bility to the government. Audit of
the 1917 returns by government &C
tuaries. discloses millions of dollars
in delinquent taxes. A special drive
has been ordered by Commissioner
Blair to force prompt payment on sueh
tax accounts. In addition to full pay
ment of the back taxes, the taxpayers
are to be assessed varying penalties
provided by the revenue laws.

Drive Against Govt. Waste.

General Charles G. Dawes, the Di-
rector of the Budget is making new
drive against governmental waste by
further limiting purchases Of supplies
and forcing officials to restrict their
needs as closely as possible to stocks
already available in government sup
ply warehouses. His estimate of six
weeks ago that Sl12,000,000 would be
saved out of appropriations made
available by Congress for the present
fiscal year may be doubled as re-
suit Of new methods. Existing con-
tracts for supplies Of every character
are ching cancelled or amended and
the future spending is being shaped
after 'cut to the bone" policy.
