PENNSYLVANIA R. R.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. IL
(ANP)-Of the 664 cooks and
walters who left the Pennsylvania
railroad service for military duties,
27S have returned thus far to their
former positions. Officials say they
expect the remainder to return to
their post war jobs upon compile
ton of their military service.
The Pennsylvania railroad oper-
ates 1914 dining cars on it's many
lines employing 2,419 walters and
1927 cooks, all of whom are col
ored.
During the war, the railroad was
hard put to maintain service on its
previous high standard. Although
the number of employees was more
or less static, the burden placed
upon them was heavier than ever
before.
In the six years of war, the rail
road served over 100000 per-
sons on their trains-the greatest
number of people ever served in
the cars of single railroad.
When veteran employees return
from the war, they are re-hired and
given a short period of "refresher"
training. This "refresher course"
is an important adjustment from

Two of the 13 Negro officers are
medical officers and were formerly
with the now inactivated 92nd In
fantry division. They are: al.
James A. Bats and Capt. Walter

Capt. Ivan H. Harrison, Detroit,
the first Negro to command the
battalion has been reassigned to
his former post as executive Off

Capt. Harrison assumed COM
mand of the most storied Negro
combat unit on the western front,
first of its kind to enter combat in
the American army, when on Nov.
3, 1915, orders came for the trans
fer of 1t. Col. Paul L. Bates, white,
of Boonton, N. j., who had been
ordered stateside.

signed to position as fourth cook.
This job has been the butt of many
jokes and much horseplay among
the workers, as it is actually dish
washing. From this humble begin
ming, the worker, by his own effort
and initiative, progresses through
stages to third cook, second cook
and finally chef. The chef is in
charge of kitchen operations.
The average length of service of
the older employees of the dining
car department is 10 to 20 years.
The waiter with the longest service
record is R. A. Johnson, who en-
tered the railroad employment in
1902; the chef with the longest
service is Ernest Ray, who began
work in 1906. The all-time record
for dining car service is held by
James A. Ware of New York, who
was retired on pension in 1914
after so years of service, during
which time he maintained a perfect
record.

Native Washingtonians Gather
Kauttn7a'lns Hosts at Party
For Son and Recent Bride
By Betty Beale

A rare treat took place in Wash
ington yesterday afternoon when
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Hay Kauff-
mann entertained in honor of their
son, 1t. Samuel H. Kaufman III,
and his bride of September, the
former Corina Rogers. 1t is an un-
usual occasion in this transient town
when a party of any size is given
where everybody knows everybody
else. This recipe for sure-fire
success proved itself yesterday at
the Kaufman home on Belmont
road whcre more native Washing
tonians were gathered under one
roof than have been in many day.
Clad in a becoming black dress
with pale blue moire shoulders and
wearing an orchid at her waist, Mrs.
Kaufman received at the entrance
to the drawing room with her
daughter-in-law and the latter's
mother, Mrs. Higginson Rogers.
The young Mrs. Kaufman wore
street length dress with a black
bodice and light blue print skirt, a
corsage of white roses and a white
rose in her hair. Mrs. Rogers navy
blue print tunic was topped by a
large white fur cossack-type hat.
The other members of the hosts
immediate family were present, in
cluding Mr.. John H. Kaufman,
the youngest member Miss Joan
Kaufman, and the former Jessie
Kaufman, Mrs. Harry Hoskinson,
whose chic black dress was a perfect
background for the delicate flower
spray diamond pin which her hus-
band brought her from Algiers.
Among the first people glimpsed
in the drawing room we're Mrs.

Mrs. Robert Clement Watson and

Z0nta Club Hears
Mrs. C0ncba James

Much of the worlds future unity
will depend upon the ratification by
20 countries of the constitution
drawn up by the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization at the conference held
in London recently, Mrs. Concha
Romero James of the Pan American
Union declared yesterday.
Guest speaker at the luncheon
meeting of the Zonta Club at the
YWCA, Mrs. James called attention
to the fact that ratification of the
constitution by the United States
would come before Congress the end
of this month.
The UNESCO is a subsidiary OF
the United Nations Organization and
was authorized in the UNO charter,
she explained. When the conference
net in London few weeks ago, she
said, the delegates felt the term
"educational" was not comprehen-
sive enough and adopted the addi-
tional terms scientific" and "cul-
tural' to explain the scope of their
program.
Mrs. James commented that the
presence of A representatives oi
different nations, many of them
devastated by war, demonstrated the
power of the spirit over the power
that destroys.
Though the UNESCO will be 6
nerve center for the world com.
munication of ideas, the speaker
emphasized, it will remain for each
individual nation to cooperate il
fulfilling these ideas. In this hem
isphere many of the principle.
worked out at the conference hav,
been in effect for some time, sh,
said.
Mrs. James said that the nev
organization would place emphasi
not only on intellectual problems
but would promote the study of tht
needs and desires of those people
who have not before been granted
a part in any world program.
Such plan will not succeed, how
ever, unless I'VE show our common
loyalty and put it up to a test when
the matter comes up before Con-
gress this month";" she concluded.

Of the club, presided over the lunch.

Hoovers, whose entertainments gen.
orally assumed something of an air
OF penance, the Franklin Roose-
velts seemed. to enjoy themselves at
their White House parties. From
the moment Mrs. Roosevelt ap-
peared gloveless at her first formal
reception as First Lady, and shortly
thereafter began Virginia reeling In
the East Room, an era stretching
back to the days of Dolly Madison
was liquidated.
Now, with another war over, an
other President and First Lady who
seem firmly determined to be
themselves, to remain unchanged
even in the White House-struggle
courageously to help recapture the
semblance of normalcy that char
acterized Washington in other
peacetime days. Like many other
persons, they probably long for the
time when the Nations Capital can
once more be an easy-going town.
Whether it ever will be, remains to
be seen. Anthing can happen in
washington and usually does.
That is an immeasurable part Of its
fascination.
