D. C.. Naval Reserve

The local Naval Communication Re-
serve, which Is composed largely OF
amateur radio operators IN this city
and vicinity, came in for much praise
for the work of its members in man
stations during the recent storm and
standing by their sets until all need
for them was passed.
Lieut.. Comdr. F. w. Benson, United
States Navy, inspector instructor in
charge of local Reserve activities, an
nounced that special credit is due the
excellent work of Ensign B. E. Stahl
in organizing and getting watches
started, and in addition, credit Is due
to the following for their excellent
work: Lieut.. (Junior Grade) Roy c.
Corderman. Lieut.. (Junior Grade)
Howard H. Layton, Radioman (Ffrst
Glass; Woodwork Williams, Seaman
(First Glass; Isadore Abramovitz and
Seaman First Glass; Elliott M.

Comdr. Benson said that during the
hurricane the Volunteer Communica-
ton Reserve members voluntarily
manned their own stations and the sta
tion in the Reserve armory and main
tanned continuous watches on as many
wave lengths as possible with view
to rendering any assistance possible to
ships at sea and land stations. These
were kept manned long as 1t was pos
sible to have power. Unfortunately, he
says, the rising waters of the Anacostia
and Potomac Rivers shut of power at
the Navy Yard at BIS pm.
During the period that these stations
were manned traffic was handled be-
tween Norfolk, Philadelphia, New York

mote control line to the Navy Depart
ment was out of commission. AS Nor
folk, Va, was practically isolated, he
reported, the Postal Telegraphic traffic
was routed through the Naval Reserve
Armory by radio, thence by messenger
to their Washington Office whence 1t
was routed to the destination In other
States.
In commenting on the work Of the
Reservists in the emergency, Lieut.. G.
A. Briggs, commander Of the local Re-
serve division, said:
1T Is with satisfaction that 1t may
be recorded here that the Naval Com
munication Reserve OF the District OF
Columbia was found to be self-mo-
bilizing organization. Without requir-
ing orders, men reported for service
manned the Naval Radio Stations NED
and W3BVG and promptly began max
ing contacts with radio stations in iso-
lated sections and In parts OF the coun-
try not cut OF by the storm.
''As soon as conditions indicated that
an emergency was occurring. Ensign
Stahl reported at the Reserve armory

Precautions were taken to safeguard the

bay entirely too rough to make the
trip across. They fished close to shore
until around / O'Clock, at which time
the wind moderated. Their captain
then decided to make the trip to S. W.

Mr.. Radcliffe pointed out the latest

their high food value and said that
DR.. E. j. Coulson, q nutrition expert
Of the Bureau Of Fisheries, found that
milk alone, or milk supplemented with
iron and copper did not yield the same
biological effects that the milk-oyster
combination did.
Quoting DR.. Coulson, he said:
at Is quite apparent, therefore,
that oysters furnish one or more
dietary essentials not present In
the milk. Oysters are known to
contain all Of the minerals which
have been necessary to maintain
health land to promote normal

Mr.. Radcliffe said that the 10000
