"A. B. & W. Transit Co.
To Open New Bus
Terminal Tomorrow
Station in Front of
Old Post Office to
Save ! 300 Miles q Year

The new terminal of the Alex
andris, Bancroft e. Washington
Transit Co. in front of the old Post
Office Building will open at $50
am. tomorrow to serve Virginia
commuters
r. T. Mitchell, vice president and
traffic manager, said yesterday that
of the company's 125 buses. lis
would be used to service the District
and 10 would be held in the service
of Virginia patrons for intra state
routes.
The transit company recently has
acquired 10 new buses, six of which
will be in the District Virginia run
shortly. -Four now are in operation,
Saves 1900 Miles Year.
Mr.. Mitchell estimated that the
new terminal, moved from Tenth
street between D and E streets NV,
would save 1900 bus miles per year
since the new terminal will cut a
half mile off the bus run. He said
it was expected that the regular
bus schedules would be maintained
although there ere heavy loads to
be carried and the running time on
the road has been decreased to
conserve rubber and gasoline.
The spokesman for the company
pointed out that an additional two
f1fths of a mile had been cut off
the Virginia end of the line. which
would amount to considerable
saving during the course of year
The Public Utilities Commission
recently said the new terminals at
Twelfth street and Pennsylvania
avenue NV. would save operating
time.
Reduces Congestion.
The commission also pointed out
the change would alleviate traffic
congestion in the downtown area
The new terminal for A. B. & w
buses has three loading platforms
All have been completed.
Inbound A. B. & w. buses will 20
north on Twelfth street and swing
right to the loading area. Outbound,
buses will go east to Tenth street
south to Constitution avenue, and
west along the regular route.
The new terminal is designated to
help break the traffic jam in the
downtown section and to facilitate
transportation to nearby areas in
Virginia.

LOS ANGELES. Sept. 26.-Henry
+ Kaiser, West Coast industrialist,
TODAY termed steel the real bottle
neck in the Nations war production
schedule.
There is nothing more neces-
sary than steel, and we plan to heip
this situation with our Southern
California plant, using ore from
Western mines said the former
contractor whose shipyards at Pa
ciflc ports continually vie with one
another for construction speed
records.
In an interview, Mr. Kaiser said
he expects also to set record with
his s55 900 900 steel plant at Fon-
tana, Calf.

by January, and rolled plate shortly
thereafter" he said. This means
only one year. or slightly less. Will
have elapsed from ore in the mines
to finished product, since construc-
ton of the steel plant was begun
last March"
Scrap Drive Praised.
Mr.. Kaiser praised the Nation"
wide scrap drive as a campaign vital
to Americas steel furnaces, but
had little to say about the amount
needed or any new sources.
TT is difficult for me to talk about
scrap: I'm not close enough to it
Just yet. But I recognize its great
Importance and I think the Gov
ernment and civilians alike are
doing a fine job of collecting it,
he said.
The Kaiser steel plant at Fontana
will have an initial capacity of
0,000 tons per year. Mr.. Kaiser
said this output would be raised to
100000 tons if his current ex-
pansion plans are consummated.
He did not elaborate on these.
There are too many contingent
cies," he said.
Pleased at Nearby Sources.
First ore will come from Kaiser
mines near Kelso, on the California
desert. Coal will come from Utah.
Production schedules call for rolled
plate a month or two after the
| first pig iron is poured in January.
And that means ready for deliv-
cry, too" he added.

tance of nearby ore sources.

"In some instances they can be
prosecuted by means of existing

cases 1t may require supplemental
legislation, which the committee
probably will recommend"
Announcing the report would
name all officers, district leaders
and similar executives" of the listed
groups, Chairman Dies explained
that many members of these Or
CARNATIONS ale neither Nazis nor
Nazi sv!npathizers, but have been
duped into joining because some of
the ost ansible principles of the Or
CARNATIONS appealed to them
He said many Of the groups had
been formed for "ostensibly laud-
able purposes and to accomplish So
called patriotic objectives,' but were
controlled and used by the Nazis to
spread propaganda in fashion
which he termed similar to that
employed by Communist front or
ganizations
Contrasts Methods Of Groups.
There is one outstanding differ
ence between these groups and the
Communist front organizations,
however, he said. where the red
fronts appealed to class prejudices,
the Nazi groups have centered on
fomenting religious and racial
hatreds."
Mr. Dies added the report would
contain sufficient evidence ito JUS

who acted with full knowledge of
the import of their work and with
every intention of aiding in the
spread of Nazi propaganda and

retary Anthony Eden disclosed to-
night that IT'S British warships OF
varying sizes were employed in
guarding the big convoy of Russian
American and British ships which
Nazi planes and submarines at
tackled in the Arctic Sea early this

The convoy, he said in a speech

the United States" and he added
that the delivery of these goods
which included large numbers of
aircraft, tanks, guns, much am
munition and valuable stores of all
kinds, was great feat of arms"
Air Wars Effectiveness Cited.
The British and American air wal

1T would be grave mistake to
underrate the influence of our

on the whole course of the war.
TN the first ID days of Septem-
ber, 1912, no less than 5000 tons OF
bombs were dropped in nine raids
an average of 500 tons each raid
Only twice did the Nazis drop

in one night, each time on London

Cologne, where we already have

Douglas Miller Urges
Industrial Disarmament

The peace which follows this war
must include industrial disarma-
ment in Europe if a third world war
is to be averted, Douglas Miller,
former United States commercial
attache in Berlin and author of
You Can't Do Business with Hitler, y
told the District Library Association
last night at meeting in the Lii
brary of Congress.
Concerning the other side of the
Axis partnership, Japan, Wilfrid
FleiSher, for many years Toxic cor
respondent of the New York Herald
Tribune, said one of our important
tasks is to harass Japan's line of
communication so she cannot make
use of the raw material from lands
she has conquered.
Even more important, he said is
the need to take the war to Japan
herself That is the only way the
Nipponese can be defeated, he added
Mr.. Fleisher also predicted that
when Japan is defeated the popu-
lation will revolt, and that the
chos created on the islands will be
indescribable. The population. he
said. will turn against the war lord:
with the same fanaticism then
armed forces are now exhibiting ii
battle.
The new order" which Hitlel
set out to put into effect in Europe
now is dead, Mr.. Miller said. I
proved to be a propaganda slogan
which has been killed by resistance
on the part of suspectfng people
One example of it, he said, was tn,

Only Political Upheovoi Can Stop Election Of Dewey

help bring about the reelection Of
President Roosevelt.
In the last gubernatorial elec-

field at that time.
Smaller Party Vote Seen.
The Labor party is not expected
to poll anything like as large a vote
this year as it did In 1888. How
ever, one estimate is that it will
poll for Mr.. Alfange between 225, ,O0o
and 275, 900 votes. In addition, the
Communist party has placed can
didate In the field. In the 1893
election, the Communists did not
enter a gubernatorial candidate and
left its party members free to vote
for Gov. Lehman. Indeed, it in
dorsed him.
In that election, the Communist
party had a candidate for Repre-
sentative-at-large, and he received
about 100000 votes. which gives
some idea Of the vote the party may

Under these circumstances, thou
sands Of votes which, otherwise
might be cast for Mr.. Bennett viii
go to minor party candidates. Mayor
La Guardia is supporting his fellow

There seems no likelihood that
Mr.. Alfange will withdraw in favor

camp say they doubt 1t would help
much now If he did. His name is on

as possible upsetting factor.
