0DT Controls
Train Coaches

WASHINGTON, July 18. tUP)-
The Office o. Defense TranSpOrta-
ton has taken control of the assign
ment of all railway passenger
coaches.
This does not mean that all
coaches are withdrawn from civilian
use. but ODT said it will reduce
the number assigned for civilian
travel
The ODT will allocate to military
use as many coaches as it finds
to be necessary to expedite rede-
ployment.
The order for ODT control APP
plies to all railway passenger, bag
gage and express cars exclusive u
Pullman sleeping cars" according to
an ODT statement.
Previously twO-thirdS of the sleep
ing cars had been assigned to mill
tary use. Use of sleeping cars on
runs of less than $50 miles has been
prohibited.
The order on coaches is effective
today and will continue in effect
until the end of the war unless
terminated earlier
Under the order, the ODT not
only can assign as many cars as
needed for military use. but can re-
distribute among the railroads the
ones that are still available fol
civilian use.
Just how deeply the directive vii
cut into civilian travel was not
known. but ODT said that Army
redeployment is expected to be Sc
heavy that at times regularly SChed-
uled passenger trains will have t
be suspended.

NEW. YORK - CAMP The ex-
tent of concert piano material in
Harlem, considering its half million
population, could easily be set down
by the most casual observers as
banal. But if the work Of such
adept people as Marylou Lowe, to-
gether with others, continues to
flourish, we may readily look for
ward to an upward swing.
Mrs. Lowe is a music educator.
She has studied voice at, the Insti-
tute of Musical Art of the Julliard
school, and violin at Oberlin.
Her college training along with
her piano she received at New
York university. Later she worked
on a doctorate at Columbia uni
versity.
Sunday night she presented 49,
year -old Shirley Allen at the West
138th Street YWCA in a more or
less formidable piano program for
one SO young. Little Miss Allen
played the d minor and A major
