OKAY Of SOVIET.
DENOUNCED
MISS SMITH

Efforts of various groups in
the United States to obtain rec
ognition of Soviet Russia were
denounced today at the thirty
second annual meeting of the
State conference of the District
Daughters of the American Revo-
luton, now in session at Me-
mortal Continental Hall.
Resolutions calling upon the
United States government to re-
fuse to grant recognition to Rus
sia will be presented to the con-
ference late today.
Miss Clara w. McQuown, Wash
ington lecturer, recently returned
from a months stay in Russia,
told the conference that the
whole aim of the Soviet govern
ment was to break down the
home and religion.
At the close of today'S session
resolutions will be offered asking
that no curtailment of the edu-
cational program in the United
States be permitted. The resolu-
ton, offered early today, declares
"a moratorium in duca i o n

s CENTS HOUR
REPORTED AS
GUT ASKED
Employees as Mum as Capital
Traction Co., But Are Said
To Be Girded for Fight

Difficulties have arisen be-
tween the Capital Traction
Company and the Street Car
Mems Union over the wage scale
for the coming year.
Both sides are reluctant to
give out information regarding
the controversy, but it is under.
stood that the company is try
ing to institute wage reduction
of six cents an hour.
Cut Last Year.
Last year a two-cent reduction
was accepted, after arbitration.
The present wage scale is SO
cents an hour for the first three
months, 81 cents for the next
nine months and Sc cents there
after.
The company officials said to
be most familiar with the situa-
ton were unavailable today, and
at the Garments union it was
said that a statement in the
matter should come from the
company.
The proposed change in wage
schedules would apply to con-
ductors, motormen and bus
drivers.
The Washington Railway &
Electric Company is non-union,
but usually the wage scales there
conform to those on the Capital
Traction.
Merger a Factor.
In view of the prospective
merger Of the lines it would
naturally follow that scale
selected for the Capital Trac-
tion would apply to both.
Arbitration proceedings have
been required on a number of
occasions in the past to COM
pose difficulties between the
company and the employees. That
was the case last year, and in
view of the reported attitude of
the men at this time, resort
to arbitration is looked for now.

An admiral to supplant gen.
eral.
This is the plan of some lead
ing Democrats who today will
place in nomination the name Of
Admiral Mark L. Bristol, U. S. NJ,
retired, as an active candidate
for the post of District Commis-
sioner soon to be relinquished by
Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Crosby.
Behind the candidacy of Ad-
miral Bristol stands an array of
influential Democrats, led by Mrs.
George T. Marye, wife of the for
mer ambassador to the Court Of
Romanoffs.
To Call On Costello
Mrs. Marye is going personally
today to the office of the Demo
cratic National committeeman
for the District, John F.. Costello,
and there plead for support Of
her candidate.
Mrs. Marye has already en-
listed the support of Col. Arthur
O'Brien, power in local Democ-
racy, who it is believed will sup
port the candidacy of Admiral
Bristol.
So enthusiastic is Mrs. Marye
that she is preparing to lombard
the White House, if necessary, in
order to put her candidate over.
AS she says:
"The nation - and especially
the Nations Capital-needS men
like Admiral Bristol, who are
not professional politicians, to
govern"
Has Remarkable Record
Admiral Bristol, born in New
Jersey, in 1868, has had a re-
career. He was gradu-
ated from the Naval Academy in
1887. He served on all classes of
ships and in all the principal
stations of the world. He was on
the battleship Texas during the
Battle of Santiago.

No More Spies
Again. the past week has shown the difference between
the natural objects of national interest and those of
sona interest. For enforcement of prohibition we shall
have more wire tapping and no more purchase OF

the best liquor expense, shall drink nothing what
ever except at their expense, to crafty their
refined and by this time expert taste On the other
hand in the matter of secreting gold, the Government
wishes the name of every individual and threatens to
make it public To hoard gold is menace to the COM
