Every office, from mayor down to
treasurer, will be filled by women
as the result of the elecrioa held
there today. Mrs. Maud Duncan,
publisher of a weekly newspaper, the
first woman mayor in Arkansas, will
have the first all-woman City Coun-
ell in the State to work with.
By pre-arrangement, no men quail

that they were not doing so well
with the city's affairs and had de-
cided to ''let the women take a
turn AS a result names of women
only appeared on the ballot. But on
election day some of the men or
ganized and voted for certain men
for each office, inserting the names
of their choice on the ballots. How

BASIN TO GET FISH

Commissioner 0'MalIey to In

Fund Still Growing.

United States Fish Commissioner
OMalley stated today that he is pre-
pairing to plant the first bass, crappie
and sunf1sh in the Tidal Basin, with
in the next two weeks. He said that
while the nets will not be in place
at the time of the first planting, he
is willing to take a. chance on losing
some of the fish by reason of their
escape from the basin through the
gates to take advantage of their
Spring spawning.
When the necessary wire mesh has
been installed to prevent the escape
of fish from the waters of the basin,
it is the intention of The Star in
cooperation with the Bureau of
Fisheries to have special fish day"
at the ba sin, at which time most of
the fish to be planted will be placed
in the Capitals best fishing pond.
Representative Sends Gift.
Representative James G. Strong of
Kansas, chairman of the committee
on war claims, IS the first Of the
many anglers in Congress to send. in
his contribution to the fund. In his
letter he says: IF successful, 1T will
add one more pleasure to be enjoyed
by our Nations Capital"
Another contributor inclosing his con-

old, of Harrisburg. Pa, father of P.
r. Rupert of this city who spends
the fishing season in the Fall visiting
his son, sends his contribution with
the statement that he Is .only too
glad to help the good cause.
Every little boy and big boy in
Washington, as well as such little
girls and big girls as love to fish,
should thank you for your efforts to
raise the necessary funds for con-
structihg the retaining nets at the
Y. e. Booker. jr., in his letter inclos-
ing his check. Continuing, he says:
"Crime- to Let Plan Fail.
1T would be nothing less than a
crime to let the opportunity of MAX
ing this beautiful body Of water a

lack of the small amount of money
necessary to construct these nets"
Robert A. Wilson, secretary of the
Potomac Anglers Association. said
this morning that every member of
his association is heartily in favor of
The Star fishing fund. He said 1t
was a find undertaking, but added:
There is no use in stocking any
stream or pond if some restrictions
are not placed on fishing. am
heartily in favor of a bag limit and
a small license fee to fish in the basin
and I think I can say the same thing

were myriads. In addition to this,
the water was full of dead birds.
These birds live on the numerous
fish which are to be found in these
waters and Capt. Dexter said that
the fish use as food a certain kind
of jelly fish. The jelly fish were
killed by the unnaturally warm
water. The birds became poisoned as
a result of eating the fish.
The warm current caused tor
rental rains in northern Peru and
Ecuador. Whole villages were wash
ed away and, according to Capt.
Dexter, there are three new rivers at
Talara, Peru. ordinarily a desert, one
of which is II feet deep.
Chief Officer V. Cernesco of the
Santa Luisa said that at Talara
foliage has sprung up on all sides.
Old residents of the west coast say
that the same phenomena of the

in bird life and the torrential rains

ADVOCATES SANE
ECONOMY PLANS
Frederic Vile, in Address,
Says National Saving May
Become Extravaganza.

Pleading for a safe and sane"
economy program in Federal admin
istration, Frederic William Vile ex-
pressed the opinion at last nights
annual banquet of the Washington
Carpet, Upholstery and Furniture AS
sociation that economy at any cost
could easily become extravaganza"
He particularly stressed the peril of
economy If such a policy is permitted
to impair adequate national defense
on land, at sea or In the air. The
banquet was held at the City Club
The speaker rather startled his
audience of business men with a story
about economy in the United States
Army. Mr.. Vile said that the War
department, more than a year ago
was required by budget necessities to
cut down the forage ration of Army
horses and mules by per cent The
result, he had been informed, was
that thousands of the Army's four
footed beasts of burden were in a
state of serious undernourishment
The ordinary Army budget for for
age is s4,000.000. Thus, to save A
'paltry S2S0.000," Mr.. VILE declared,
1T is authoratively stated that our
Army horses and mules are being
Kept in condition that would unfit
them for efficient service if they
should suddenly be mobilized on a
war basis. Do the people of the United
states want economy at such a cost?
/ do not think So"
Mr. Vile stated that the country
was undoubtedly behind President
Coohdge's economy program. 1t was
the factor that was mainly RESPONSE
