SHIP STRIKERS
0. CARGOES
ON COAST

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 81
G.NSO.-Loading and manning
Of emergency ships laden with
food for Alaska was assured today
by the seven striking West Coast
maritime unions which had tenn
porarily withheld their signatures
from a special agreement with the
Government.
The unions had refused to sign
the agreement Wednesday because
of a minor hitch concerning the
discharging of cargo in Alaskan
ports.
Following a meeting yesterday
at which Assistant Secretary Of
Labor Edward F. McGrady and
Col. o. F. Gibson, manager of the
Governmentowned Alaska rail
road, attended, the unions agreed
to special peace pact.
Will Sign Pact Today
Formal signing of the agreement
will be made today. The accord
will be for the duration Of the
emergency, union leaders an
nounced.
Efforts Of McGrady to end the
month-old strike of $1,000 mari
time workers on the Pacific Coast
went forward today with renewed
vigor following the Thanksgiving
holiday.
McGrady arranged for another
conference today between the
coastwise steam schooner operators
and the cooks and stewards
union, one of the seven striking
unions.
Willing to Confer
The Masters, Mates and Pilots
Association has expressed willing
ness to meet with steam schooner
operators and may resume nego-
tiationS as soon as the cooks and
stewards meetings are completed.
These two unions were the only
groups of the seven striking unions
which had not reached tentative
agreements with the coastwiSe
operators when the strike was
called at midnight October 20.
If the strike is settled in the
coastwiSe shipping field, McGrady
will then turn his efforts to bring
about a settlement between the
unions and deep sea operators of
passenger line vessels.

Powell Found Plenty of Excitement After
Cuban War Service As Member Of
Metropolitan Police Department

Born in North Carolina, Charles
Petit Powell found plenty Of ex-
element when he Joined the Army
during the Spanish-American War.
He was one of those who
stormed San Juan Hill in the
famous charge headed by Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, and saw
much more service with General
LaWton.
Served % Years
After the war he joined the
Metropolitan Police Department
in 1901, and found plenty more
excitement in store until he was
retired % years later.
One of his most thrilling eX-
perienceS was in 1919 when he was
patroling his beat in the Third
precinct and was startled by a
terrific explosion.
He rushed to the scene to find
the home of the late Attorney
General, A. Mitchell Palmer, had
been bombed.
Was Commended
The first officer on the scene,
Mr.. Powell took charge until the
arrival of superior officers, and he
was commended by the commits

case.

WAGNER PLANS
SUM BILL

Backed by the Administration,
organized labor and municipal
leaders, Senator Robert F. Wag-
ner, of New York, is drafting a
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS slum clearance
program for enactment by the in
coming Congress.
Among the far-reaching objec-
tives of the proposed legislation
are:
FIRST-To provide comfortable
and sanitary apartments for
more than million men,
women and children now herded
in diSeaSe-breeding and out
NODDED city tenements.
SECOND-To stimulate recovery
of the building and allied in
dustries and create jobs for thou
sands of unemployed workers in
cities and mills.
Under Senator Wagner's plan,
the Federal Governments direct
contribution to the program will
be limited to 800 million dollars.
This will be distributed in the
form of a 80 per cent grant toward
the cost of each project.
The remaining 10 per cent of the
cost, or TOO million dollars, will
be underwritten by private CAPT
tai, Wagner believes.
AS an inducement for such in
vestmentS by banks and other lend
ing agencies, Wagner proposes to
have the Federal Government
guarantee loans on Slum clearance
projects up to 20 per cent of the

14OO BLOCK 18TH ST.

I decided to wander up and
down Sixteenth Street yesterday
to see if I could locate some un-
furnished apartments that would
interest my readers. MY first stop
was in the 140O block, where I dis
covered an apartment fit for a
queen. In the first place, the
apartment is one Of the most dis
tinctive In town and some OF the
occupants have been living there
for years. This particular unit
has just been redecorated and IS
quite lovely. There are two bed
rooms, two baths, a living room,
full size kitchen and dining room.
These rooms are spacious, well ar
ranged and bright and the rental
is only $125.
1900 BLOCK 18TH ST.
Still enjoying the loveliness Of
Sixteenth Street and admiring the
beautiful homes, I ventured two
blocks further. where I found q
smaller apartment at $65. This
two room, kitchen, bath and foyer
apartment is on lower Sixteenth
Street, within easy walking dis
tance Of the heart of town. The
rooms are well planned and a fair
size with plenty Of windows and
good wall space. This unit rents
for $65, including electric refrig-
Grafton.
10TH AND v SITS.
BY this time I thought it would
be a good idea to get on the bus,
which I did, and rode up to 18th
and v Streets. Here inspected a
hotel apartment that offers every
thing in the way of comfort. A
dining room for the convenience
of the guests, a beautiful furnished
lobby, drug store and grocery store
in the building, in fact there is
little that you can't buy here.
There were several vacancies here.
one a unit consisting of one room,

it and had lots of possibilities for

cabinets: also there was a delight
full two room, dinette, kitchen ana
bath apartment that really is
worth while. In view Of the ex'
cellent location and the service at
your finger tips, the rental price
is more than reasonable.
5000 BLOCK 18TH:
Having read that walking up hill
is good for the figure, I decided
not to give in to my aching toot'
sizes, but to climb the hill. Every
thing was forgotten when l
reached Meridian Hill Park. That
is certainly pleasing eyeful. With
old man winter covering the park
in a mantle of white, it is a sight
that will remain with you for a
long time. From some parts OF
the park you have view OF down
town 18th Street that is especially
inspiring. But I had to travel on
and finally reached the 5000
block of Sixteenth Street. I had
visited this building many times
for it was a very famous place.
Noted for its clientele, character
and discrimination, you will find
some of the best known families
in town living there. There was
a non-housekeeping apartment OF
two bedrooms, living room and
bath, that was very desirable. This
would be ideal for the family who
all go to business, as there is a cafe
in the building.
31OO BLOCK 10TH ST:
On the other side of 18th Street
up in the next block there was an
other impressive apartment build
ing that offers an interesting unit.
There are two bedrooms, nicely
sized, with plenty of wall space for
placement of furniture to an ad"
vantage; living room, off which
is a porch. a kitchen, we'll ap'
pointed and offers a splendid op-
portunity for meal preparation in
solid comfort. The bath is in ac'
cordance with the rest of the unit.

NAVY CREWS STAND PAT
Will Make No Changes for Races
at Poughkeepsie.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. June IL
Charles Walsh, Naval Academy rowing
coach, says that he expected to have
the same boatings for the three crews
which will row at Poughkeepsie on
June % as in all the races since the
race with Columbia, which started the
season. After that race, Walsh made
one shift between the varsity and
jayvees, but the plebes have been un-
changed all season.
The Navy coach expects to have
one time trial here for his crews over
the distance they will row at
Poughkeepsie and probably only one
more after reaching the Hudson. The
squad will depart for Poughkeepsie
on Sunday, allowing just one week
for preparation at the scene of the
races.
