STEEL SHARES
WEIGHHEAVY
ON MARKET
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, June 26 Q.N.S0 .
Softness in steel shares retarded
recovery on the stock market to-
day, although the majority Of
leaders managed to gain slightly.
Early irregularity gave way to
a generally firm list as demand
for motors spread to other sec
tions. Renewed selling in steels,
however, checked the upsWing.
Weakness in the steel depart
ment reflects efforts to unionize
the industry, which for years has
maintained an "open shop" U.
S. Steel and youngstown Sheet
and Tube each dropped about a
point, but Bethlehem and Repub-
lie were relatively steady.
Chrysler spurted nearly 2
points before profit-taking re-
duced this somewhat. General
Motors and Packard improved
fractionally.
In oils Texas Corp. jumped a
point. while Atlantic Refining
and Standard of New Jersey were
well above previous closings.
Rails moved irregularly higher.
Atchison, Great Northern pre-
ferred, N. Y. Central, and South
ern Pacific showed small gains,
but Union Pacific and PennSylva-
MIA lost ground.
Bonds were mixed,

Gardening PrOWess
HaycOck's Pride
Only Hobby Of New
First Assistant
School Chief

Robert L. Haycock, new first
assistant superintendent of public
schools succeeding the late DR..
Stephen E. Kramer, is a native
WaShingtonian.
Tall and spare, with kindly blue
eyes and a scholarly face, the
new first assistant superintendent
takes his new honors and respon-
Sibilities gracefully.
Seated IN his new office, sur
rounded by gorgeous baskets of
flowers sent by friends, neighborS
and associates, he answered ques-
tions by the press easily yet
modestly.
Garden Is Hobby
He is married, he said, and has
two grown children. His son is
an auditor with the Riggs National
Bank and his daughter is en-
ployed in the research depart
ment of the public schools.
He doesn't play golf, swim or
hunt but give him spade or a
hoe or a trowel and he'll make
roses bloom where weeds formerly
thrived. lie has a garden in the
rear of his Longfellow Street
home-and-he admitted modeStly
its beautiful.
He was born February 4, 1876,
was educated in the public
schools here and brings a wealth
of experience to his new job.
After raduating first
from Western High School and
then Washington Normal School,
he was appointed a teacher a
few hours after receiving his
diploma. That was in 1895. A
year later he was made principal
of Threlkeld School.
In the meantime, he continued
his studies at George Washington

ALEXANDRIANS
STUDY FIRE
HAZARDS

ALEXANDRIA, Va, June 26.
Warned from three different
sources that a dangerous fire haz'
ard exists in several parts Of the
city due to an inadequate water
supply, members of the city coun-
Gil are now studying proposal
made by the Alexandria Water
Company which would alleviate
the condition, but cost the city
nearly $4,000 annually.
Warning that the present water
supply is dangerously" made
quate, due to small water mains
and the lack Of the necessary dis
tribution of them throughout the
city, have come from a special
committee appointed by council
to study the condition, a commit
tee from the National Board Of
Fire Underwriters, and from the
local fire chief, James M. Duncan,
jr,
Taking Up Situation
Following the warning from the
fire underwriters, city council ap-
pointed a committee to take the
matter up with the water COM
pany.
Recommendations from the un.
derwriterS called for about seven
miles of mains, varying in size
from eight to 16 inches. The ap-
proximate cost of laying these
mains, it was brought out at the
conference between city and water
officials, would be $148,000. Off
cials of the company have agreed
to make the investment if the city
contracts to pay annual interest at
the rate of 81 per cent.
This interest rate. it was ex-
planned, would be the city's cost
for the necessary extension of
mains and would have to be
charged against fire protection.
Several of the city's newer real
estate developments, one of the
councilmen pointed out, are dan
gerously in need of more water
pressure and an extension Of
mains.
Report Due July 9
Another meeting of the COM
mittee on water will be held in
the near future to study the pro-
posal made by the water company.
a member of the council said, and
report of the committees recon-
mendations is expected to be made
to the council at its meeting Of
July 9.
Those serving on the water COM
mittee include Councilmen George
K. Bender, chairman, A. Slater
Lamond and John D. Matter. Be-
sides the committee, City Man
ager E. C. Dunn, City Attorney
Carl Budwesky and Fire Chief
James M. Duncan, jr., also at.
tended the conference with the
water company officials. Several
officials from the utility presented
the proposal which will later be
submitted in written form.

Nineteen years ago today, the
First Division, videttes Of a great
American Army, landed in France.
Those first American com b t
troops to land on French soil,
this country's initial consecra-
ton to a cause" debarked at St.
Nazaire, were the first of the
Americans to confront the enemy
and the first to attack him.
They established, as General
Pershing afterward wrote, "the
reputation of the American sol
dier in Europe and maintained
the American ideals by the dig
nifty and self-restraint of their
bearing: the record of their
achievements and sacrifices will
be a model for our armies in
the future.
From Regular Army
Fighting men all, the now-fa-
nous First Division was recruited
from the regular Army. from these
units: Sixteenth Infantry, of Fort
Bliss; Eighteenth Infantry. Fort
Douglas, Ariz.; Twenty-sixth In
fantry, San Benito. Tex; Twenty
eighth Infantry, Fort Ringgold,
Tex; Field Hospital No. 13 and
Ambulance Company No. 13 (then
No. g., Fort Sam Houston, Tex,
and Company C. Second Field
Signal Battalion, Brownsville,
Tex.
Probably no division in the
American Army during the World
War served with greater distinc-
ton than those professional sol
diers of the First. Their ranks
thinned by casualties, the fighting
men of the First grew from
strength to strength and became
a great inStrumentality for vic
tory and for the triumph Of the
ideals that lived in the soul OF
their country"
1854 Men Killed
BY Armistice Day, some two
years and five months after 1t
landed on French soil, the First
Divisions honor roll included 4,964
officers and men killed in action
and total casualties reached the
enormous total Of 22,668!
1t is said of the First that "it
never complained; it never crit
icized others; it never asked to be
relieved; it was never held up by
machine gun fire: it was never
tired" Strong men were those of
the FirSt-Strong men whose
"selfleSS devotion to their missions
was manifest in their every act"
With fortitude, with courage,
with modest demeanor. America S
professional soldiers carried this
country's pledge of duty, its token
of good faith and determination
to our hard-pressed allies in
France. Nobly did the First &C,
quit itself. The first of it's heroic
souls went silently and America
had no opportunity for demon.
