first two months after Pearl Har- Dor only 37 Italian aliens were permanently informed here, as compared with PAT Germans-this despite the fact that there are many times as many Italians as Germans in the area. Probably less than 500 Italians have been detained for questioning at any time since Americas entry into the war, and the Army has defi- nitely stated that no mass evacua- tionS are planned from this stra- logically vital industrial area. A walk down Mulberry Street, the Corso Umberto of this minia- ture Rome, graphically portrays this change of heart. It is still as Italian as the huge muzzarella cheeses that hang ponderously over its grocery -lined sidewalks.
 But pictures of MacArthur now flourish in store fronts where por- traits of Mussolini but recently stood. Stars in almost every other window of the low, red brick tenements which crowd the street proudly proclaim sons in the serv- ice The story is echoed in big star-sprinkled banners which fly high over the blocks.

WEEPING WILLOWS BY THE STREAM

WEEPING WILLOWS BY THE STREAM Weeping willows shelter me, Let me stay with you, and dream Of little boy, who sailed His paper boats upon the stream. Droop your swinging branches down Around this water clear and sweet, So far away from booming gups or swift manouvering of fleet. My tired eyes are drained of tears, Oh, weeping willow, weep with me For a sailor lad who died, For Freedom, on the Coral Sea.

Monday Evening Club
Hears Report Calling
For Disbanding
Lack of Participation
By Members Charged;
Plan Brings Protest

The Monday Evening Club, an
active force in social service work
for the District for more than 40
years, is considering disbanding, 1t
was learned here last night.
A report of its Executive Com
mittee submitted at the monthly
meeting held in the Y. w. G. A. last
night declared the organization,
formed in 1896, has steadily de-
clined in the past five years or more
as an effective force in the COM
munity and in membership par
ticipation."
Objections to disbanding were i'm
mediately forthcoming from among
the 20 active members present last
night, while the majority agreed that
the club should be reorganized.
May Decide April 13.
The Executive Committee, the re-
port said, feels that the enormous
expenditure of energy on the part
OF the few members to keep the club
alive is out of proportion with the
small amount of interest and par
ticipation displayed by the member
ship" 1t added that the need which
the club attempted to fill when it
was organized has ceased to exist,
largely as a result of the growth of
other organizations in the District"
The next regular meeting OF the
club is scheduled for April 13. At
that time the membership is expect
ed to vote on whether to disband
or continue on the basis of "a
revitalized program"
Although the club now has a
dues-paying membership of 236
members" the report said, "the
average number of persons attend
ing the monthly meetings is only so.
Moreover, 1t has been noted that
the attendance at meetings is gen.
orally made up of persons employed
in the field of work being discussed
at the meeting. Many If not most.
of these persons are not members
Of the club.
THE committees of the club meet
infrequently, if at all, and only one
or two can truthfully be considered
actively functioning committees. The
work of the club has fallen to a
small group of members, in spite
of strenuous efforts on their part to
enlist the interest and cooperation
Of other members. ."
Service Defended.
George A. Warren, club member
for six years, declared there were
crying need for a great variety OF
social services-services that can be
better brought to the attention Of
Congress and the District Commis-
sioners by the Monday Evening Club
than by almost any other social well
fare organization in Washington"
Another member, William Gold
stein, hit at "deadwood" within the
group and said they should be
'weeded out" Too many OF the
members, he added, were "over 40
mentally"
Miss Eunice Broyles, executive
secretary of the Minimum Wage
and Industrial Safety Board for the
District, explained the administra-
ton of the minimum wage law here.
The large majority OF workers in
the District are receiving more than
the minimum wage set by law, she
said.
In reply to a question, she said
that minimum wages should be ad-
vanced to meet the rising costs OF
living.
Ray H. Everett was named chair
man Of a nominating committee
which will submit a slate OF officers
to be elected at the April meeting.
