The Connecticut Avenue Citizens
Association last night voted for
adoption of daylight savings time in
the District next summer.
M. Douglas Clarke told the group
the additional daylight hours would
be beneficial to children, and victory
gardens could once more be estab-
nshed.
The plan. sponsored by the Junior
Board of Commerce, is to be intro
duced in Congress soon.
On the motion OF Mrs. w. w. Cob
lentz, the association voted to con-
tribue $100 to the Children's Mu-
scum of Washington, 2700 Tilden

Louri-VoIpi Is Enroged Again,
But N NobodyKnows the Reason

up because the soprano unwittingly
turned her back on him during one
of the romantic passages.
In any event, all the fearful pleas
sof the director and cast were of no
avail. Even the weeping Signora
Fontinelli. billed to, sing her first
big-time role, failed to shake him
when she offered to Withdraw from
the cast, and the management was
looking around for another tenor.
The emotional crisis was nothing
new for Lauri-Volpi.
Last May, when he sang the role
of the Duke of Mantua against the
Rigoletto of the American baritone
Lawrence Tibbett, he clashed vio-
lently with the American director,
Robert Lawrence.
Mr.. Lawrence had forbidden en-
cores, in accordance with Metro
politan Opera House practice in
New York. When Lauri-Volpi fin
ished the famed aria la Donna
Mobile" the crowd burst into shouts
of IBIS" (encore).
Triumphantly, Lauri-Volpi told
the director from the, stage:
Maestro, the crowd wants 1t and
you must give it to them"
MIR. Lawrence was firm and Lari-
Volpi walked off the stage to his
dressing room. Only the intervNn-
ton of Tibbett and the manager
brought him back to complete the
performance.

Shoot-to-kiII Orders
OUT in Hunt for Nine in
Brooklyn JaiIbreak
BY The Assoeiossd Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The city's
1900 police were ordered today to
be ready to shoot to kill" in the
manhunt for nine prisoners, one q
confessed killer and another q for
mer Alcatraz inmate, who staged q
daylight escape from old Raymond
Street Jail in Brooklyn.
In the number who escaped, the
break was the largest In the city's
history. But it was astonishingly
quiet and involved no violence.
Everything points to accomplices
on the outside Albert o. Williams,
newly appointed commissioner of
correction, declared.
Warden Thomas Mcdonnell at
tributed the escape to an inadequate
number of guards and to the prisons
deterioration.
THE JAIL" he said, 'is over 100
yCc4o O3Ns 4to bd1 . OH &0ttSl1t kNo
windows are rotten"
Mr.. Williams and the Brooklyn
district attorney, Miles F. Mcdonald,
gave this version of the break:
The nine prisoners, unescorted,
were returning from medical ex-
animation some time between lis
and l AS yesterday afternoon. They
departed from the customary route
back to their cells and passed an
open door leading into cell facing
Fort Greene Park.
One of the men climbed up to the
cell window and, using hacksaw,
cut through the bars and squeezed
through an opening.
Fifteen feet behind the jail is q
20-foot retaining wall, at the foot
of the park. The wall had been
cracking in recent years and planks
a foot wide and or 4 inches thick
had been jammed against the wall
TO shore it up.
A plank was just outside the open
cell window and the prisoners ap-
parently scrambled along it to the
top of the prison wall, from which
they dropped into the snow-covered
park. /
The men vanished without being
observed, although they passed
within 20 feet of a police booth
overlooking the prison yard.
A patrolman was assigned to the
booth at the time of the break. Ac-
cording to his report to his COM
manding officer, Capt. jeremiah
Sullivan, the patrolman was SHOW
cling snow at the time and had his
back turned.
Mr.. Mcdonald said he believes the
break was masterminded by Anthony
Aiello, 36, who recently pleaded
guilty to murder in the second de-
gree, and Alfred Minutolo, "a, the
former Alcatraz inmate.
He said that Minutolo, while
serving Is years on Alcatraz, was
kept in solitary confinement as an
intractable prisoner and that while
being brought here escaped from
two detectives and leaped through
the window of a moving train in
Indiana, but was captured later.
Minutolo was awaiting trial on
1o-yearzold charges of attempted
robbery ~
The break was discovered when /
the prisoner populations was lined
up in preparation for the afternoon |
exercise period. Aielio was found
missing, and an inspection showed
the absence of the eight others.
Others who participated in the
break were identified by prison Off
cials as George Gurniowich, %;
Carmine Emmino, %; Edmund
Godfrey, 26; Christopher Elsis, 33;
Anthony Abbandola, %; William
Duffy, %, and Salvatore D'Aula, 81,

Truman 10 Call Fire
Prevention Meeting

President Truman will cali q ma
tional convention on fire prevention
In the next few months 1t was an
nounced at the White House today.
Concurrently a statement was is
sued pointing out that the loss due
to fires has been mounting steadily
and that at least 10000 persons
burn to death or die Of burns an
nually.
In the first nine months OF 1916
fire losses totaled nearly half bill
lion dollars, with the prospect that
final reports for 1915 will show this
year to have been the most dis
astrous in our history, with respect
TO fire losses, the statement said.
Greater Protection Sought.
The statement explained that the
conference would be held ito bring
the ever-present danger from fire
home to all our people and to de-
wise additional measures to inten-
sify the work of fire prevention in
every town and city in the Nation" !"
The statement emphasized that
destruction of lives and property in
the past could almost entirely have
been averted, 'if proper precautions
could have been taken In time
Mai. Gen. Philip B. Fleming, Fed
eral works administrator and read
Of the Once Of Temporary Con-
trols, will be chairman Of the con-
ference. State and local officials

ing in the field of fire prevention
are being invited.
Memorial" to Dead.
In calling the conference, the
President said. IT can think Of no
more fitting memorial to those who
died needlessly last year in the
La Sale Hotel fire in Chicago, the
appalling disaster at the Winecoff
Hotel in Atlanta and the more re-
cent New York tenement holocaust
than that we should rededicate cur
selves anew to the ceaseless war
on the fire menace"
The statement pointed out that
the conference will be along the
lines Of the highway safety con-
ference held here last spring and
which was said to be responsible for
saving thousands of lives.

Congress Will Get Bill
On Agency for Firing
|Subversiive Employees

Legislation setting up an inde-
pendent agency with the power to
investigate and discharge subver-
sive Government employees will be
introduced soon In Congress.
The proposal was the chief rec
ommendation made yesterday In the
annual report of the House Com
mittee on Un-American Activities.
Both Representative Wood, Demo-
crat, of Georgia, outgoing chair
man of the committee, and Repre-
sentative Thomas, Republican, Of
New Jersey, the new chairman,
voiced their approval of the rec
ommendation and indicated swift
action would be taken.
The committee urged that an in
dependent commission be set up by
Congress with authority to investi-
gate the loyalty of Government en-
ployes and to order the discharge Of
any worker or official whose loyalty
to the United States is in doubt.
Nine other recommendations de-
signed to rid the United States OF
subversiye activities received unani-
nous committee approval, but q
proposal that Congress require for
eign language publications to carry
simultaneous English translations or
give UP their second-class mailing
rioH,fc ron iY,to froI11,lo
Chairman Thomas declared the
foreign language proposal would be
q dangerous encroachment" on
freedom of the press. Mr.. Thomas
told reporters that an English trans
lation might increase costs so great
ly that some publications, many of
them of religious type, would have
to suspend. Nevertheless, Mr.. Wood
told reporters he will introduce a
bill embodying the foreign language
proposals made by the committee.
Other committee recommenda-
tions propose that only American
citizens be allowed to hold Offices
In labor unions subject to Federal
laws; that a special division be es-
tablished in the Justice Department
to prosecute cases involving at
tempts to undermine the Govern
ment; legislation ordering the de-
portation Of all alien Communists
more stringent screening by immi-
grafton officials Of aliens coming in
to the United States, and the denial
Of second-class mailing privileges to

.ICkES WANTS
 SMALLER ADS, HIGHER RATE
Says Newsprint Shortage Gould Be Relieved by
 Alaska Resources

ATHENS, Ga. Feb. 24.- tR-Har- old L. Ickes advocated today the "rationing by price of newspaper advertising as one method of com batting a growing shortage of news print while still giving readers more news and editorial interpretations. The suggestion was contained in an address he had prepared for delivery before the General Press Institute before illness forced the cancellation of his appearance. Copies of the speech were distribut- Ied at the morning session to which he was to have spoken.
 T propose that you double your advertising rates, at least for dis play advertising said the former cabinet member, now a newspaper columnist. He added that the re- suit would not he doubling of pro- fits because advertisers would take smaller ads and in this way you your save newsprint.
 He also declared the newsprint shortage could be eased by the con-
 trolled tapping of the rich forest resources of Alaska through Federal
