where England itself, 1.-The predominant

no. parliament, no government Of its
own save that Of It's counties. Scotland
Wales and Ulster are in like case. Ir

MILITARY SALARY
EQUALITY ASKED
Chairman Britten of Naval
Committee Urges Early
Legislative Remedies.

To expedite the correction OF many
inequalities In the pay schedules for
the Army, Navy and other military
activities Of the Government, q sub
committee Of the House naval affairs
committee this morning appealed to
Chairman Smell of the rules committee
to give this legislation preferential con-
Sideration for early passage.
Chairman Britten of the naval COM
mittee, with Representatives Hale of
New Hampshire and Gambrill of Mary
land, formally presented the request to
Chairman Smell Of the rules committee.
The measure on which emergency
action Is sought would amend the gen.
eral pay bill of 1922 and provide in
creases in pay where they are deemed
advisable after q study by a joint COM
mittee of House and Senate.
II hope that q joint committee may
soon get to work to iron out the in
eQualities in the service pay" said
Representative Britten, land while am
not prepared to say how far the COM
mittee on naval affairs should go at
this time, do know that there Is a
strong sentiment in Congress to deal
fairly with the enlisted personnel as
well as with the officers"
MANY GIarinE Inequalities.
Representative Britten called atten-
ton to many glazing instances OF such
inequalities.
Under existing law" he said, sit is
possible for q lieutenant commander a
commander and a captain, all on the
same ship, to receive exactly the same
pay, irrespective of the importance OF
their respective position aboard that
ship. Many pay situations would be
funny II their effect were not so serious.
"A rear admiral recently in command
Of l cruiser, 80 destroyers and 2 tenders
was receiving $6,219 annual pay, while
two of his Heutenants on one Of the
tenders were each drawing e6,357 per
annum.
"a ridiculous situation was presented
when PreSident-elect Hoover went to
South America on the battleship Mary
land. A medical officer aboard, with
the rank of lieutenant commander, and
the executive officer, commander, were
each receiving more pay than the cap
tain. It seems incredible that two on
GERS of the same rank, OF the same
length of service, on the same ship and
doing parallel and equally important
duties, may. receive pay varying as
widely as $1,s7S because one has de-
pendents and the other has not.
Bachelor Oficers Unhappy.
Bachelor officers are especially I'M
happy because they suffer reduction
in pay ranging from $3.50 to $3.50 per
annum when ordered from shore duty
to sea duty or to duty with an expedi-
tionary force at Nicaragua, China, or
Haiti.
THE Marine receives a clothing al
lowance of 500 per year throughout his
service, while the Navy fellow gets an
original supply on his first enlistment
and none thereafter.

CITIZENS DISCUSS
|. TRACTION FILLS"
Devonshire Downs Group
Hears Sharpe of W. R. &c.
Co. Give Views.

Discussion of transportation ills and
means for improving matters complain
ed Of occupied the Devonshire Downs
Citizens Association Mt Its January
meeting in the Home for Incurables
last night. On the invitation OF the
association, c. Melvin Sharpe of the
Washington Railway g. Electric Co.
spoke, after listening to grievances of
members, some of which were the in
adequacy OF service during rush hours,
the need for express service to the sub
urban sections, punching OF cars and
antiquated equipment.
At the outset q sharp argument re-
suited when John L. Hyde, secretary
Of the association, suggested that the
Interstate Commerce Commission might
be appealed to, that passengers, as he
said, might be given the same consid-
Grafton as regards overcrowdinR as Is
placed on cattle cars. But the situa-
ton was smoothed out, Mr.. Sharpe
arlces cited will be made and the con-
ditions remedied where possible.
Mr.. Sharpe's Comment.
Mr.. Sharpe said the street railway
systems of the country were born and
reared wrong with the establishment
OF q unit-fare system. He cited the
plan in London, England, as being ideal,
being based on system similar to that
employed by taxieabs. The sliding scale
of fares in effect in Boston also was
when the transportation companies
make more than fair profits the fare
is decreased automatically and as the
revenue falls below fair level the rate
increases
Explaining the express service re-
quested by the association, Mr.. Sharpe
said this is already In existence here,
but that 1t does not prevent passengers
from leaving the cars ut points inter-
vening between the express limits. It
was suggested that Q de luxe street car
service be inaugurated similar to the
coach line to Chevy Chase. or that In
lieu OF this and the express service an
extra-fare car be run to the outlying
sections occasionally. Mr.. Sharpe
promised to give this suggestion con-
sideration.
Proposes Count Of Patrons.
With the idea Of determining the
density of traffic. which, he said, gov
erned in case of increased service, an
inspection and count on the WiScon-
sin avenue line was to be instituted to-
day to continue for several days. He
referred to the proposal Of q 1O-cent
fare, expressing doubt that 1t would
meet requirements, and firmly held to
his idea Of q fare-zone system.
Preceding the address Robert L. Bal
ley was unanimously elected president
of the association to I'LL the vacancy
caused by the resignation Of Alfred p.
Thorn, who was elected at the Noyem-
Der meeting. w. j. Neale. acting presi-
dent, opened the meeting and relin-
quished the chair on Mr.. Roberts in
stallation. Mr.. Roberts announced that
committee assignments would be made
at the February meeting.

Trapper Finds Health Aid
Deep in Ice-BOund Arctic
Tells how he gets through
the Shut-In Winters
Vigorous and Well

IRON the far and frozen North
l. from where man has to fight not
only wild animals, but still more
savage Arctic cold. w. s. MacPhee,
trapper and prospector, writes Us
his secret of health.
Just as he is shut in by the ice and
snow Of. the Northern winter, 80
most Of US are shut in by business or
household cares. We cannot get
enough exercise, and often we are
not able to have proper diet. How
simple . thing it is then to keep our
selves buoyantly happy, full Of
energy, seeing the bright side of life,
by taking advantage Of the discovery
that Nujol gently, naturally, and
surely sweeps away the poisons out
! OF our bodieS-we all have them
regularly rs clock work. *
Especially in the spring before
the ice breaks up and the open water
comes" writes Mr.. MacPhee, "all US
trappers are apt to be in pretty bad
shape. In the summer of 1924 first
discovered Nujol. The idea of in
ternal fabrication appealed to me.
SOOu i tUuuU tnAb LI1O 1EI1I@UkcS
nervous, no-pep feeling was gone.
Nujol has certainly given me D
different outlook on life"
This is only one Of several thou.
sand letters which have come to US
recentlyfrom peoplewho havelearned
that Nuiol is the simple easy normal
way to what they want most in the
world-happiness!
Remember, Nujol Is not Q medi-
cine; it contains no drugs; it is rs
colorless and tasteless as pure water;
it Is not absorbed by the body; it is
mountaineering. 1t is simply harmless
internal fabrication; which our bodies
need as much as any machine. It is
hard to believe what a difference. n
few cents spent on Nujol will make
in your happiness, your efficiency,
the way you work, and the way you
look ut life. The only way to prove
this, however, is to start in today.

MADRID, January lP-The bar
bers of Spain were wondering yes
terday whether Spaniards have gone In
for long hair or are simply trying to
save money on their barber shop bills.
One way or the other, business is
poor for the trade. so poor, In fact,
that many BARRIERS are idle. The Madrid
Association of Barber Shop Employees
has sent out circulars to the brothers
in the provinces, including the Barber
Of Seville, advising them to stay where
they are instead Of coming to the
capital in search of hair to cut and
wl1iskers to shave.
