NEED OF CHARTING
WEST COAST URGED
Jones Sees Adequate Surveys in
Next Five or Six Years at
Present Rate.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The importance of adequately chart
ing the Pacific Coast to prevent ship
wrecks was described to a House ap-
propriations subcommittee by f. Lest
er Jones, director of the Coast and
Geodetic Survey. Hearings on the
subject were made public today.
Due to acquisition Of modern YES
sells, he said. the survey had been able
mot only to proceed with great rapid
ity. but with some real idea of per
manency."
Recalling that 10 years ago he had
told the committee it would take so
years to give the Pacific Coast ade
quate charts. he said work had gone
forward so rapidly that within S or 6
years such safeguards would be Of
fered TO that great shipping interest
which has grown up SO rapidly on ac-
count of the additional coastwise
shipping, the Panama Canal and the
Transpacific liners"

THREE MORE MARINES
FINED IN RUM CASES
Trio Must Serve 80 Days Each il
They Cannot Pay $500
Assessments.

For the second. time in the last two
days members OF the marine force
stationed at Quantico, Va, We're
brought into court for violation Of
the prohibition laws. The defendants
today were Sergt. William Frank
Loechle, Sergt. John Serbu and Corpl
Carlos H. Cooley. They were convict
ed by Judge Gus A. Schuldt of trans
porting and illegally possessing 20
gallons of colored corn whisky. They
were fined 5000. If it is defaulted a
jail sentence Of 80 days will be i'm
posed.
The marines were arrested early
this morning on the BladenSburg road
by Policeman Oliver K. Stanton and
C. P. Powell of the twelfth precinct.
The automobile was searched after
the police had pursued it for speeding
and not having a rear light burning.
The driver, Sergt. Loechle. was fined
$40 on each charge in Traffic Court,
Sergt. Serbu stated in court that
they bought the liquor in Baltimore
and were taking 1t back to Quantico
for a celebration on the post. He said
that more than 100 marines had chip
ped in for the liquor in order to cole
brate large detail being ordered
away to Cuba. He placed all the blame
on himself, saying that the two men
with him did not know there was
liquor in the car.
Four marines were convicted yester-
day by Judge Schuldt for the same
offenSe. Since the first Of the wear
more than 20 marines have been
caught running liquor from Baltimore
to Quantico. According to Thomas
Lodge, assistant United States attor-
ney, and Capt. Guy E. Burlingame of
the flying squadron there has been
much peddling of liquor in Quantico
lately and the authorities there are
anxious for the civil courts to take
action rather than having the men
tried by the military authorities.

ing the kindergarten and first grade
subjects. He is also using a new
type Of classroom in the first, second

is an alcove with sink, workbench and

Innovation Held Important.
And the innovation which he con.
stitution of an advisory council to the
superintendent, composed of two
teachers from each grade, elected by
the teachers themselves, and to which
the superintendent can refer his prob

He Is striving to go as far as posi-
bel In all these ideas to tie the school
more closely to the home, and is let
ting the teachers move up with the
children, when they first enter school,
for at least the first two years, before
the teacher returns to the lower grade
again. In this way the teacher knows
the child and its problems far more in
t1mately than in the old way

the Willard estate, and was prominent
ly identified with banking and inslr'

MEMPHIS, May 18.-Dr. Gilbert r.
Rowe was reelected book editor of

South on the first ballot taken in the
General Conference of the church
here today. DIR. Rowe received 200 of
362 votes cast. His nearest opponent,

Conference, received 1S votes. DIR.
Rowe will thus continue as editor of
the Methodist Quarterly Review.
While tellers were counting the bal
lot the General Conference refused to
suspend the rules to hear a report
from the committee on the spiritual
state of the church.
The action was regarded as signifi-
cant because this committee has han
died all resolutions and memorials
concerning modernism and funda-
mentalism, and the refusal of the con.
ference to hear the report was taken
to indicate that it was not concerned
on the subject.
