REROUTE TR0[[EYS
TO STOP CROWD|NG

Rerouting Of the cars of the 9Th
street line Of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company to reduce
overloaded conditions during the rush
hours was ordered by the Public IT'LL
titles Commission today.
The order is effective Immediately
and fixes the terminal Of the several
branches of the 9Th street division as
follows:
southbound-Takoma Park to 7th
and B streets northwest, Forest Glen
to 7th and B streets northwest,
Brightwoed to 7th and B streets
northwest, Soldiers Home to wharves.

Florida avenue. 7th and B streets to
Brightwood. 7th and B streets to
Forest Glen. 7th and B streets to
Takoma Park.
Will Give More Cars.
The commission gives assurance in
its decision that the changes will in
no case result In fewer cars, but will
mean more cars in some instances.
At present many Of the eth street
cars run from the most remote sub
urbs of Georgia avenue to Anacostia
ana the waterfront. II mas Deen tOund
that these long runs slow up service
and the principal change consists of
turning back some of the city bound
cars at 7th and B streets. according
to the schedule given above.
Commissien's Explanation.
In explaining the purpose OF the
changes. the commission said. in part:
"These studies show that the over
loading of the cars on this line, as at
present routed is due to the fact that
the loads from the northern and
southern ends overlap in the central
portion OF the city, and that the op-
GRAFTON of short-end trips during the
rush hours does not relieve the unsat-
isfactory conditions on the through
cars. Under the proposed system. the
long, through routes are to be aban-
doned, the cars from the northern
end to be turned back at a cross-over
to be reloeatsd on B street, just west
Of 7th street northwest while the
cars from the southern end will turn
back at the car barn at 11th street
and Florida avenue. Under this plan
the base headvay on the congested
portion of the line (between 7fh and
b streets and eth and U streets) will
be increased from sixteen to twenty
four cars per hour, and since these
will not be long-haul through cars.
the present congestion will be re-
lieved."

PARIS TO IMPOSE
new PENALTIES
AGAINST GERMANY
Refusal to Continue Pay.
ments on Nationals Pre-
War Debts Cause.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS. August 1.-France will i'm
pose penalties of an economic and
financial character upon Germany
because OF her refusal to continue
payments on the debts contracted
by her nationals with allied nationals
before the war, it was said in official
circles here today.
These penalties will be applied at
the end of the ten-day period indi-
Gated. by Premier Poincare in his
note to Berlin last week.
Germany's refusal to continue the
payments was made known in a note
from the German government today.
Independent Of Allies.
1t was pointed out in French official
quarters that France would probably
take steps against Germany regard
less of what the other allies should
decide regarding similar payments S
due them by Germany.
The time limit set by France will
expire next Monday.
The exact nature of the penalties
intended to be applied could not he
learned in official quarters. 1t was
explained. however, that no military
action was contemplated.
Inc view was expressed that the
payments which are being made to
in connection with business dealings
arranged before the war will be stop
ped in view of Germany's action.
Premier Poincare returned to Paris
today from his week end trip to his
country home and decided to accept
the invitation of the British govern
ment to begin discussions of repara-
uons and other outstanding allied
problems in London next Monday.
Premier Poincare takes the view
that the German situation makes the
conference imperative as soon as
possible
French official circles now believe
the London conference will be one
of the most important held since the
peace conference. 1t may last at
least ten days and is likely to in
clude the Tangier, Turco-Greek and
other problems pertaining to the
