The Bureau Of Navigation of the
Navy Department reported 1t has come
to its attention that Reserve officers
generally seem to be Of the opinion
that the Navy Department was an
tagonistic to the introduction of legis-
lation in the naval appropriation bill
toward the appropriating Of funds
which would permit Reserve training
cruises this year. The bureau said
that in order that these ofncers may
be set right in the matter. the follow
ing statement Of facts in the case is
presented.
"rhe first suggestion for the elm
ination Of appropriations for Summer
training cruises was made by the Bu-
demand for economy. It was felt
that, in, view Of the non-availability
Of sufficient Regular Navy vessels on
the East Coast, the elimination Of the
cruise for this one year would result
in less loss Of efficiency to the naval
establishment as whole than would
be suffered through similar curtailment
Of funds in other directions. One Of
several suggestions advanced by Re-
serve officers was that the required ap-
preparation be reduced by so per cent
ana nall the DIVISIONS De LralneQ.
THE chief Of the bureau felt, how
ever, that this was unwise. as 1t would
cause discomfort in those divisions not
selected for the training, and also. how
were these divisions to be selected?
Consequently, when the bill left the
House this item was eliminated. At
the hearing before the Senate Naval
Committee Comdr. Rutter, representing
the Reserve Ofncers' Association, made
a plea for the restoration Of the ap-
preparation. He was reinforced by the
statement Of the chief Of naval opera
uons.
"As a result Of this committee hear
ing an item Of $3.50 900 for the Sum-
mer cruises was incorporated by the
Senate committee. The bill was then
presented on the floor Of the Senate
and the action Of the committee con.
frmed, thus making It possible to hold

POOR PAVEMENTS HELD
CAUSE FOR HIGH TAXES
Upkeep in Ohio and Michigan
Counties Compared In
Survey.

Improper traf1c facilities are one Of
the major reasons for increased Gov
ernment costs, according to a report
recently issued by the Citizens League
of Cleveland.
Upkeep of payements In Cuyahoga
County, the home county Of Cleveland,
cost more than twice as much as in
Wayne County, Michigan, in which
Detroit is located, during the 1O-year
period from 1921 to 1880, the report
reveals. The high cost Of improper
pavements is further emphasized by the
fact that Wayne County pavements
have an area one-third greater than
those in Cuyahoga County.
During the 10-year period Wayne
County spent $3,765, 900 for pavement
maintenance while Cuyahoga County
spent $8,255, 900, or where Wayne
County citizens spent a dollar for up
keep. Cleveland area citizens spent
$2.19.

agreement between the House bill and
the senate bill, . conference was ap-
pointed, but the House declined to back
down on it, stand regarding this ap-
propriAtion and the Senate, apparently
In order not to jeopardize the bill as
Q whole, accepted the House attitude
and receded from its amendment.
Referring to the matter Of Reserve
officers on active duty other than Tor
training purposes, the House PROVIDED
that only one oficer OF the Naval re.
serve above the rank of lieutenant
should be on active duty. Every effort
was made by the department to have
this provision removed and finally,
after much effort, q compromise was
reached by which the present officers,
If they so wished, could be retained on
duty with present rank, but with the
active duty pay of . lieutenant OF
the Navy of 10 years service. Had
this compromise agreement not been
reached, all those ofiicers above the
grade of lieutenant, except one, would
have to have been placed In an inactive
duty status.
1.-THE bureau hopes to be able to re-
establish Summer training cruises next
year. In the meantime all units should
accept the situation and do all they
can to continue to improve their ef-
ficiency."
The Navy Department announced the
Naval Reserve Inspection Board next
year will examine all Fleet Reserve
petty officers and men in the duties
Of their ratings contained in the ap-
plicable Navy training courses. It
added that II there are any such train
ing courses lacking in the units of the
Fleet Reserve, application should be
made for them through the naval dis
trtct headquarters.
While training cruises have been
eliminated for the year, the Navy De-
partment is encouraging all who have
time available to take cruises aboard
ships without their service pay.

Hamas, who never lost a fight
and who won the intercollegiate
heavyweight championship only
three years ago, never gave the
veteran chance.
Charging head down, weaving
like the old Dempsey, and volley
punching with both hands, he
rushed Loughran all around the
ring from the opening bell.
Hardly had the second round
started when a whistling right
to the mouth dropped the old
master for count of nine. He
got up bleary-eyed. Then Hamas
sent him crashing into the resin

act of resumption would have
far-reaching effects in the South
Atlantic section, and possibly
throughout the nation.
The heart of the whole Virginia
Georgetown story lies in the ideal
toward which they should struggle
together.
In their struggle for a common
ideal, Virginia and Georgetown,
should they together undertake
that struggle, will seek their
natural allies. Where will they
find, them except in the South
Atlantic?
Sentiment for Reward
1t seems to the rational indi-
vidual that an immediate resump-
ton of relations between Vir-
ginia and Georgetown is an alb
Solut- and positive NECESSITY
if those two ancient institutions
are to accept their duties in the
rlghL spirit.
At other colleges and universi-
ties Of the South Atlantic there
is gradually chrystallizing a Senti-
ment in favor of naturalization.
Perhaps this may properly be
termed a cropping, yet it is a
cropping toward the same ideal
which acts as a beckoning star to
both Georgetown and Virginia.
Men of intelligence are, for the
most part, agreed that Virginia
and Georgetown will not prove
