New Decorations Worn

Colonel Bell had an opportunity of
getting picture of all the new uni
forms which were shown off to adj
vantage in the parade of Monday ev-
ening. There were five distinct or
CARNATIONS in the parade and each
one had its new outfit, consisting of
yellow, black, green and whatnot, all
supposed to be non-leakable.
Due to insufficient light and thelack
of high-powered flashlight powder, all
uniforms looked alike under Col. Bells

RECEIVES IMPETUS
Harmonious Program Is
Reached for Work in
Arlington County.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP.
STAFF Correspondence of The star.

CLARENDON, Va, April 1.-The
board of county supervisors and the
coming committee of the Arlington
County Chamber of Commerce having
met and found to be in complete ac-
cord as to the method of procedure in
the coming of the county, following the
revamping of the coming commission
Saturday, the chamber will this week
start concerted drive for the balance
of its share of the funds with which
to do the work.
Prior to Saturdays meeting the spe-
cial committee of so members of the
chamber who were selected to make the
drive had made only a general effort to
raise the funds, 1t being the concenSus
OF opinion that there should be some
county governing body would work in
harmony before the money was pro-.
vided.
Another to Be Named.
At the regular board meeting on
Saturday, when the destinations of a
number of the members of the coming
commission were received, a resolution
was passed whereby the entire member
ship of the board was ordered vacated
TWO OF the members, Fred A. GoSnell
and A. j. Webb, were then reappointed
Robert H. Forman and j. E. Spaulding
being appointed to take the places of
two OF the resigning members. Chair
man Edward Duncan of Jefferson dis
trlct Is yet to name the other men,
Der from his district.
The Board Of Supervisors is heartily
in accord with the coming committee
OF the Chamber of Commerce, headed
by Ashton c. Jones, that the practical
way to accomplish the efficient coming
OF the county is to employ the services
OF a practical coming engineer to carry
out the details OF the work. and the two
bodies have agreed to work in unison
In the selection of the right man for
the work.
p. P. Woodbridge, secretary of the
chamber, today expressed elation at the
progress made Saturday and announced
that the chamber will now Immediately
proceed with the task of raising the
balance of its share of the $4,000
fund. 1t is expected that definite plans
will be completed at the regular BIZ
weekly board meeting, which is to be
held on Thursday.
$4,000 Already in Hand.
The chamber already has nearly
81, 1000 in cash and pledges, but is desir-
Gus that the balance of the money shall
be raised among the residents of the
county Most of the money already
has been provided by the
real estate and other business interests,
but it is felt that a more general inter-
est in the coming problem may be OBJ
tanned If the balance of the funds is
subscribed in small amounts throughoutll
the county. A number of civic organi-
cations have already pledged themselves
to raise a portion of the money through
public subscription.
Since there is one member yet to be
the first meeting of the new
coming commission has not yet been
called. It is expected that A. j. Webb
will remain as secretary of the commits
sion, but it will be necessary to appoint

or no damage and stood by while pas
Sengers and crew of the Ceylan took to
their boats. They later returned to
their own ship before transfer to the
Commandante Gamas, while the Clo-

GUARD ON DUTY
IN FIELD OF ICEBERGS
Gutter Takes Up Annual Work of
!. Kidding Shipping Lanes Of
Lurking Menace.

3 BOSTON, April with the sailing
of the cutter Tampa today the Coast
Guard took up its annual humanitarian
task of safeguarding the North Atlantic
shipping lanes against the lurking men
ace of icebergs. It will be the duty Of
the Tampa and the cutter Modoc, which
will leave Boston April Is, to chart the
great white bergs which come floating
down from the Greenland ice cap and
to warn shipping by radio against their
presence.
The ice patrol was established at a
conference Of maritime nations after the
Titanic disaster in April of 1912, when
$500 persons lost their lives. To the
United States fell the task of maintain
ing the patrol, but the expenses are
assessed on IA nations proportionately
as to tonnage sailing beneath their
flags.
The unusually mild Winter has led
members of the patrol to expect fewer
bergs this season than in recent years.

CIVIL WAR SP6|tS
MAY Be REVEALED
I" , q t9f
Butler Mansion, Pictured in
Tradition as Treasure House,
to Be Raced.

The official records of the health Of
the American people are being moved
today-and 1t is possible that the trans
fer may lead to discovery of long hidden
spoils of the Civil War.
Headquarters Of the United States
Public Health Service, quartered since
1891 in a four-story mansion built by
Gen. Ben Butler, are being moved to
one of the temporary builo..--J erected
during the World War, so that the old
structure may be RACED to make way for
an addition to the House Office Building.
The old gray mansion will be turned
over to wrecking crew as soon as the
records and furnishings are removed,
and the stones will be sold at auction.
According to tradition, Gen. Butler
stored in the houSe-in its hooks and
corners, and perhaps in secret apertureS
in the walls and foundations-Spoils his
soldiers gathered in the South during
the Civil War. The most persistent
legendary contention is that valuable
silver lies hidden in the old house. Gen.
Butler had it constructed during the
los, and occupied it many years.
Two years after 1t was designated as
the Public Health headquarters-in
1893-Surg. Gen. Cumming was exam
ined there and commissioned an officer
of the service. Virtually every other
officer since commissioned has been
examined in the same building. and
from 1891 to 1901, the hygenic labore-
tory which now has its own buildings,
was allotted the top floor.
David Lynn, supervising architect Of
the Capitol, expects construction Of
the new House ONCE Annex 30 begin
this Summer This can be done, how
ever. only If the two hotels now stand
ing on part of the site can be acquired
without condemnation proceedings. Be-
sides these buildings. another. now the
headquarters of the Coast and Geodetic
Survey, must be RACED TO clear the site.

TESTS WELDED STEEL

PITTSBURGH pa process of tir-
ing out steel until it breaks has been
devised here to test the structural
safety of welding.
The apparatus, made by DR.. J. M.
Lessells, Westinghouse research engi-
neer, bends steel shaft 20 times
second until it breaks. 1t records the
number of shimmies and stops auto
matically when the break occurs. BY
its tests, standards have been estab-
lished for comparing virgin steel with
the welded article.
Virgin steel, DR.. Lessells finds, tends
to weary after long strain. A bar that
stands load tension Of $4,000 pounds
a square inch when new, may break
finally under load of but $4,000. An
interesting discovery is that If the bars
tested stand up under 100000 to
100000 bendings, they have apparent
ly limitless endurance.

By the Associated Press.

As the opening of the special session
OF Congress draws nearer, plans are
proceeding for introduction on the
opening day of bills to provide for the
next decennial census and reapportion-
ment Of the House Of Representatives,
based on the enumeration.
Both bills will be started on their
way in the Senate. The census measure,
which will be substantially the same as
that which passed the House in the
last session. but failed of action in the
Senate, will be introduced by Senator
Jones, Republican, Of Washington,
chairman Of the commerce committee
The eapportionment bill will be offered
by Senator Vandenberg. Republican. of
Michigan, who sponsored it in the last
session and agreed to postpone action
after the measure became involved in
a legislative jam.
Chairman Jones expects to call his
committee together a few days before
Congress conveneS to discuss the census
bill and to agree on its main features.
The House measure fixed November
as the date for the taking of the 1880
enumeration, but Jones favors May /,
next year. believing that more accurate
information may thereby be obtained in
rural districts, while the weather is
good. The Commerce and Agriculture
Departments, however, favor the earlier
date.
