Press Censorship Hints Under
standing With Germany.

VIENNA, December 3 LP).-A closer
political understanding between Aus
tria and Germany were seen by polit-
ical circles today in the latest govern
ment decree to the Austrian press.
The newspapers were informed that
no unfavorable comment regarding
Germany's preparation for the Saar
plebiscite could be printed, and that
the papers must also maintain silence
in connection with the armament OF
Germany. Violation of this order
means the confiscation of the offend
ing newspaper.

FOR LIGHT
RATE BOOSTED

Underground electric light and
power conduits add to the invest
ment on which the Potomac
Electric Power Company can base
its rates to consumers, and Peo-
pies Counsel William A. Roberts
today took up with the Public
Utilities Commission the question
of permitting such underground
construction instead of cheaper
overhead wires.
In his memorandum to the
Public Utilities Commission, Mr..
Roberts said:
Under the present system, a
speculative builder can, in many
instances, have his subdivision
beautified without ultimate ex.
pense to himself or the resi-
dents, although the cost of
underground extension is eight
times as much as overhead pole
lines.
IF this were done uniformly,
1t would mean an increase of
something more than $S,OOO,OOO
in the rate base"
Mr.. Roberts presented a de-
tailed plan by which, in his opin-
ion, electric light systems can be
installed in suburban areas with.
out too much underground con-
struction.

STRIKE TIES UP

TRAINS
Workers Refuse Raise of Five
Cents an Hour, Ask
Mileage Basis

With Ill engineers, conductors
and brakeman out on strike, the
Washington, Baltimore and An
napolis electric railway was par
alyzed today, with not a train
moving.
The men are striking because
their demands that they be paid
on a mileage basis have been re-
fused by the receivers for the
bankrupt company.
Pay Raise Rejected
The company countered with an
offer to raise the pay 5 cents an
hour, but the men refused this.
Quiet marked the strike, but po-
lice here were instructed to keep
close watch on railroad property
on their beats.
The walkout came at S a. M,
after representatives of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Train.
men failed to reach an agreement
with General Manager H. T. Con-
molly in an all-night conference
in Baltimore.
First Tie-up in Years
This is the first time in many
years that service has been in
terrupted between the Capital,
Annapolis and the Oriole City.
Company officials were non-
committal early today but admit
ted that no sign of immediate
settlement is in sight, and that
it may be several days before a
satisfactory agreement is reached.
The strike isolated Annapolis,
which depends on the electric road
for transportation. Many persons
who live in Baltimore and work IN
Annapolis were forced to take
taxis, while mail was sent in from
Baltimore by truck.

Memorial services for one Of
Washington's most beloved police
superintendentS, the late Major
Richard Sylvester, will mark the
formal opening of the forty-first
annual convention of the Interna-
tional Association of Police Chiefs

Major Sylvester, who died here

chief of the association IS years
ago and held office in the or
ganization for IS consecutive
years.
The services will be held at Mt.
st. Albans, with Bishop James E.
Freeman officiating, at $3.50 p. m.
Considerable satisfaction was ex-
pressed by officers on the confer
ence committee when they learned
at a meeting in the Mayflower
Hotel last night that $4,000 is in
the treasury. Of this amount,
$22,750 was raised by the recent
benefit boxing bouts.

FOR RELIEF

the District Commissioners can
take the next step in the pro-
gram to furnish surplus milk"
at low cost.
Approximately 5000 gallons

surplus here, according to reports
by the larger dairy companies
to Elwood Seal, assistant cor
poration counsel, who said today
that he is awaiting definite or
ders from the Commissioners.
Commissioner Allen, under whose

RAIN CALLS OFF.
PRESIDENTS
CUP REGATTA
Events Moved Back One Day
BY DoWnpour; Saturdays
Program Set Sunday

Washed out when a heavy
downpour made the driving Of
powerful Speedboats almost inn
possible, the Presidents Cup Re-
gatta was postponed shortly be-
fore noon today.
Weather permitting. events
scheduled today will be run off
tomorrow in the same order.
Final Cup Heats
Events scheduled tomorrow,
which include final heats Of
the Presidents Cup race and
free-for-all Hearst Trophy, will
be run off Sunday, as we'll as the
canoe and boat races already
scheduled.
Decision to postpone today's
card came after regatta officials,
headed by John A. Remon, con-
ferred with boat owners and
drivers. Never in the history of
the Presidents Cup Regatta has
the event been postponed.
A handful of hardy persons
drove to Hains Point, but were
prevented from leaving machines
by the downpour.
Harbor police found it difficult
to clear the course of driftwood
which practically covered the rain.
swollen Potomac.
Fear Polo Conflict
Another reason which caused
officials to hesitate postponing
the race was fear the Sunday
event would conflict with the
second international polo match
between the Mexican and United
States army teams. Yachtsmen
decided, however, today's rain
also probably will necessitate
poStponement of the polo match
Sunday.
Members of the executive COM
mittee later decided to postpone
tonight's pageant until Sunday.
The only activity today will be
open house at the yacht, boat and
canoe clubs.

Those are not the smart ones. Those
are the cheaterS."
What do you mean by cheaters? Are
you calling me a cheater?" demanded
Sammy Jay with great show Of in
dignation.
Il didn't mention any Names" re-
piled Hairy tartly. IF the name fits
you are welcome to it. ANY one who
depends wholly on the bounty of others
cheats them and cheats himself"
How does he cheat himself?" de-
manded Sammy hotly. He wasn't at all
concerned about cheating others, for
Sammy is like great many people We
all know who think it is smart to cheat
others, only they don't call it cheating;
they call 1t being shrewd
Every one is entitled to at least re-
Spect himself and no one can do this
who hasn't the respect of his neighbors, t"
replied Hairy. ITO be self respecting
one must be independent and one who
lives on the bounty of others is not in
dependent"
"Pooh!" exclaimed Sammy again.
"Poohl Pooh! If some one wants to
feed me should be silly not to take
all can get. Why work when YOU
don't have to? The world owes every
body living and how they get it is
nobodyS business but their own"
Hairy shook his head. Wrong" said
he. Wholly wrong. In the first place
the world doesn't owe anybody a liv-
ing. All 1t owes anybody, If it owes
anybody anything at all, is chance to
earn a living. Those who refuse to
work have no rights whatever. The
food that is given you is not yours by
right but by the goodness of the giver.
And when you take it and give Moth
ing in return you are smart but, as I
said before, cheater"
I've seen you over on that feeding
shelf getting suet. How about that?"
snapped Sammy
Hairy nodded. Eyes, you have and
probably you will see me again." he
replied mildly. But what I get there
I pay for. Think that over, Sammy
Jay. Just think that over"

he overbids, 1t is because he overrates
his own 13 cards, not because you
have promised more than you have TO

State the Situation in
Another Manner
in order to prepare for my next point:
The bidding is deity handled with all
these different opening hands, because
in spite of your weakness you still
have q rebid in your hand in the
length of your diamond suit. If the
opener must sign of by simple rebid
of his own suit, nothing has hap
pened. He has been given a chance
in case he has q big hand. That
chance-which on future hands will
produce games galore-haS at most
cost him on this hand, as an insurance
premium, the need to play for eight
instead of seven tricks. It may also
have kept the opponents out of the
bidding when they could have easily
made two or three spades. The i'm
portant thing is that your weak hand
had this rebid In it-if he went to two
no trumps you could steer him back
to harbor by bidding three diamonds,
