AT Post Indefinitely
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Leo T. Crowley said yesterday he
planned to "stay on Indefinitely" as
chairman of the Federal Deposit In
surance Corp, despite his acceptance
year ago Of the board chairman
ship of the Standard Gas and Elec-
trio Co. of Chicago.
Mr.. Crowley told reporters he had
never done any work in the utility
job because President Roosevelt
kept putting off accepting his res
ignatlon from the Federal corpora
ton. He said he would remain as
head OF the F. D. I. c. as long as
the President needed him.
In brief preview of the Govern
ment corporations annual report

Mr.. Crowley said its $500 900, ,00C
capital and surplus could be liqui-
dated today and the Government
paid back its capital investment

Approval Expected
For Plan 10 Put 36
More Police on Street
Mai. Brown Would Meet
Cost From Funds Not
Being Expended

Proposals by Police Supt. E. w.
Brown designed to place So more
policemen in active duty on Wash
ington streets in the near future
are expected to be approved by the
Commissioners this week. Engineer
Commissioner David McCoach yes
terdav gave his Endorsement.
Mai. Brown requested that 20
additional policemen be hired, the
filling of II vacancies now prevail
ing on the present force, and the
release to regular police duty OF
five officers now assigned to clerical
duty by the hiring of five new
civilian clerks. Maj. Brown said
he believed the cost of the extra
men for the remainder of this
fiscal year could be covered by
funds now accrued from retire
ments, transfers of men to the
Capitol Police and savings from
men called into military service.
Col. McCoach was advised by
Acting Auditor Arthur R. Pilkerton
that use of such unexpended funds
would be legal The city heads
already have asked the Civil Serv-
ice Commission to supply names of
eligibles for the filling of the pres
ent IL vacancies in the present
size of the Police Department.
The cost of the employment of
20 new policemen for the last five
months of this fiscal year, ending
June 80, was estimated at Sl5,500;
the five new clerical workers over
the same period at $4,000 and for
uniforms for the extra policemen
about $1.500.
In their budget requests for the
1912 fiscal year, it is said. the Com
missloners are seeking 20 additional
police and 5 additional clerical
workers. The reason is said to be
demands for increased police pro-
lection for the water system and
other utilities as protection
against sabotage and the necessity
of handling greatly increased num-
bers of visitors to the National
Capital, plus increased population.

Labor Act of 1884, the board said

independence

Crown Prince Olav of Norway yes
terday radioed from here a belated
New Year greeting to his beloved
native land" which through all its
1000 words breathed hope for the
restoration of independence to that
country.
The exiled heir to the Norwegian
throne talked over the short-wave
Station WRUL, which regularly is
used for the Transmission of news
from the United States to Norway,
where the German commanders limit
the International resources avail
able to the Norwegians.
Year of Catastrophes.
Never in history" the Prince said,
'has the Norwegian people had to
look back upon a year filled with
so many cataStropheS and diSap-
bitter experiences as in the year 1910.
And never have we had to look
into new year with so much
anxiety over what the future may
bring.
Yet, whether we look back or
look ahead, there are fortunately
both bright spots among past events
and high hopes for what shall come.
The Norwegian people has shown
and daily is still showing that it
never will become a race of slaves,
that it never will give up in despair
no matter how black the outlook
may be-"
Look Forward to Return.
Although the Prince remarked that
he, the Princess and their three
children were far away from their
people and from "all that we know
and love-" however never have we
felt more closely bound to the father
land and to every one at home
than today" He went on:
1--WE look forward with longing to
the day when we shall again set
foot on free Norwegian soil and
when, enriched by dearly bought
experiences. we shall take up again
the work for better and happier
Norway
The Prince has been spending the
holidays with the Crown Princess
and their three children at the es-
tate, Pook's Hill, near Bethesda, Md.
He plans soon to proceed to Canada
and then to return to London, the
seat of the exiled Norwegian gov
ernment, leaving the Princess and
the children in their Maryland home.

Woman Has Ships
Ghosts as Hobby
North Carolina Home Is
Filled With Sea Relics.

NAG HEAD. N. C-Mrs. Rida
Hollowell. a smiling little woman
with white hair. lives with hundred
ghosts. but all Of them are friendly.
To look at Mrs Hollowell. one
would think that water colors or
china painting might be her hobby,
but as a matter Of fact, she is more
interested in shipwrecks than any,
thing else. And it is the ghosts Of
these sunken ships she collects.
For years she has lived on this
wreck-strewn coast, the Graveyard
of the Atlantic" and has combed
hundred miles OF beach for relics
from broken ships. Her collection
is unsurpassed.
The Hollowell cottage, known as
THE Wreckage," contains at least
one relic OF every major shipwreck
that has occurred from Norfolk, Va,
to Ocracoke since the battleship HUI
ron broke up on the Diamond Shoals
in 1877
In addition, there are hundreds OF
items from wrecks all over the At
lantic which eventually are washed
ashore in this section Of the Carolina
outer banks.
The outside OF the cottage is coy
cred with the municipalities taken
from wrecked ships. All the steps
to the porch we're used at sea. There
is even a rope ladder running TO the
second floor, 'just in case the boys
want to slip away for late date"
Mrs. Hollowell explains.
The walls Of the cottage are COW
cred with flags, maps and guns.
Every corner has its quota Of SOU
venirs. including ships medicine
chests, and visiting doctors spend
hours pouring over their contents.
Logbooks and ships papers delight
historians.
