Conor Calls parIey
In Attempt 10 Halt
Teacher designations
Maryland Governor Soys
Reploeements Are Less
Than Turnover
py the Associated prss..

By the Associated Press.
ANNAPOLIS, Aug. 2s.-Gov.
O'Conor was planning conferences
with State school officials today in
an effort to prevent further inroads
in the schools depleted stafYs.
He said that he was particularly
alarmed over the fact that in the
white high schools replacements
were less than designations, some-
thing which he asserted had not
occurred in many years.
The reverse of this was true In
the elementary schools, he said
adding that the great number OF
additional enrollments in these
schools made 1t imperative that
these staffs be maintained at pres
ent levels or be increased consid-
erahly.
He said that the conferences with
State Supt. Thomas q. Pullen. ir.
and other members Of the Depart
ment OF Education would be held
to seek replacements, particularly
Tor defense areas where enrollments
are heaviest.
He said earlier that one-third OF
the high school and one-fifth Of
the elementary teachers had re-
signed from city and county schools
during the last year.
Meanwhile, he announced that
bonus payments to State employees
and schoolteachers, authorized IN
his 1914 budget would amount to
$2,713,539.43, with a total of 1914
persons benefiting.
He said that with few exceptions.
all State and county courthouse EN-.
ployes had received their bonus.
The teachers have received two OF
10 monthly payments Of $40 each.
The teachers, numbering s,547.
were by far the largest group to
receive the bonus" Gov. O'Conor
declared, "and employees of State
departments and agencies paid
from general funds totaled 2,794."
In the State Roads Commission
there was total Of 428 salaried
employees, he continued, including
bridge and ferry workers, who re-
ceived the bonus, while there were
$40 employees paid from special
funds and 2s9 from Federal funds.

Delay in Restoration
OF Maryland Transit
Laid 10 Shortages
Full Services Resumed
On Four Lines Already,
Merrill Tells PSC
By the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, Aug. 28.-Short.
ages OF equipment and personne,
are delaying complete restoration
of the Capital Transit Co.'S cur
tailed lines in Maryland, but Presi-
dent E. D. Merrill said yesterday
full service would be resumed as
soon as possible consistent with
Government regulations.
Mr.. Merrill told the Public Serv-
Ice Commission that normal service,
which was curtailed late in May in
accordance with an Office of De-
fense Transportation order, had
been restored on four lines extend
ing from Washington into subur-
ban communities in Maryland.
He declared, however, that ap-
proximately $50 men had left the
Capital company's employ since the
ODT curtailment was issued in May,
and added that the company was
at present short rs men.
About two weeks ago the ODT re-
scinded its order curtailing bus serv-
ice by 20 per cent, and the restora-
ton of service was undertaken fol-
lowing the new order.
"It is our understanding that the
resembling of the order does
not change the previous orders of
the Office of Defense Transporta-
ton that bus service shall be given
on as economical basis as possible
in order to conserve tires and
gasoline" Mr.. Merrill said in a
letter to the PSC.
In other words, the necessity for
avoiding duplication of car and bus
service, or duplication of bus routes,
still remains and the previous in
structions as to eliminating lines
and trips where traffic is less than
seated loads are still In force"
Mr.. Merrill said that the COM
pany by transferring men from
other divisions had restored full
service on four suburban lines-the
Greenbelt, Hyattsville- College Park,
New Hampshire avenue suburban
and Sargent road lines.
He said the Maryland lines re-
naming to be restored included the
entire service on the Riverdale
branch, the East Washington subur-
ban line and some non-rllsh service
on the Silver Spring community
line.

Benefits For

Chicago. Aug. l6-lNS-it isn't
generally known yet. except TO a
I few commandants and athletic d..
rectors who have been officially ap.
praised OF the change, but. anyhow,
there's War Department order
that has gone through which might
materially benefit college football
this year. especially at those col.
leges that need more help right
now than a man going over Niagara
Falls in a test tube.
Briefly, the order Is that all
members OF the junior class en-
rolled in the R.O.T.C. CReserve or
ficers' Training Corps are TO be
returned forthwith 70 the campuses
from which they emanated. II is
suspected that a certain number
OF those affected will be men with
football ability OF greater or less
degree.
Suspecting Is as far as anybody
cares to go at this stage, however.
For one thing, II may be that the
earlier War Department orde"
which bars regular army trainees
from which they emanated. 1t is
will likewise apply to these reserv'
lists.

Hey led the donkey deeper into the
shadows Of the boathouse. He, Ro-
sta and Miguel followed. A few
minutes later the searchlight of the
boat passed in a swift arc over the
fog-enveloped land and the boat
house.
For one moment, as the light
passed her hiding place, Jean
wavered about wild attempt to
signal the Coast Guard. When 1t
had gone, though, she was glad she
hadn't been betrayed by the excite
ment into revealing herself. The
chances were too good that the
three lurking by the boathouse
would have seen her, and the Coast
Guard would not.
The donkey was again led out
into the clearing. and the work Of
loading went on. Jean counted the
trips Curley and Miguel made back
and forth from the boathouse to
the cart. Seven in all. Fourteen of
the odd-shaped, apparently heavy
wooden drums in the donkey cart.
And she prayed desperately as they
passed close by her up the hillside

CHAPTER TwENTY-oNE

HER VERY confusion saved
Jean from screaming. The binding
glare in her sleep-dull eyes, the
aching stiffness of her body hud-
died on the cold, damp rock, were
too bewildering to cause 4 simple
sensation Of fear to dominate. BY
the time she had remembered
where she was, she had herself I'M
der control, and made no sound.
Gradually her eyes accustomed
themselves to the glare and found
its source.
II was a lantern held high above
the bushes that bordered the boat
house path not ten feet from her.
Cautiously she crept to the end
of the rock. From here she could
see through the fog the thin,
stopped old figure holding the Ian
tern above his head. The light lay
bright on his wrinkled brown
face as he peered anxiously out to-
ward the sea. It was Miguel!
AS she studied his lean old figure,
wondering II he were waiting for
the same thing she was, the nrst
sound Of the returning speedboat
came through the fog.
Miguel relaxed visibly and low
cred his lantern. Muttering Spanish
phrases of satisfaction, he trudged
back up the hill a few PAGES until
the circle Of lantern light revealed
a donkey hitched to a two wheeled
cart. He caught 1t by its bride and
pulled 1t after him, holding the Ian
tern low on the ground to avoid the
deep ruts.
BY the time the small procession
had reached the clearing by the
boathouse, the speedboat had An
ished its trip. its slim black out
line appearing for moment
through the gray fog before 1t van
ished again into the shadows Of the
boathouse.
Miguel left the cart and hurried
into the boathouse, and Jean saw
her chance to make her way quick
ly down the path to a point Of van
tage near enough to the scene Of
operations to enable her to see
through the heavy mist what was
taking place.
She had barely slipped behind a
protecting pile Of brush when Mi
guel and Curley reappeared around
the edge Of the boathouse. They
were carrying what looked like
wooden drums about two feet in d.
ameter and eight inches deep. They
piled them into the cart in a quick
succession Of trips. Rosita strolled
out from the boathouse during the
proceedings, climbed up over one
wheel Of the cart and rearranged
the drums TO her liking. directing
the men in loud. important whis-
rerirgs.
Once all work stopped abruptly
when the roar OF a distant boat
came through the still night Cur.
