FINE HORSE SHO - HELD BY OFFICERS Gen. Pershing Wins Honors in Exhibit on Monument - Grounds. . For Stage Cast Of Country Cop A well dressed man, probably fifty years old, dropped into the public office of the assistant cor- poration counsel in the Police Court building yesterday. He was attired in an English walking coat of checkered cloth, bound with black braid; a late model broad-brimmed black Stef son a monocle, from which a broad silk black string dropped; spats an’ everythin’, and he car- ried a light cane. Approaching_the desk occupied by Otto Hauschlldsthe chief clerk, he remarked in a broad Engl! accent: “I beg pardon, is this the office of the chief of police?” He was informed that it was not, and was told it was where the police brought their cases. The visitor explained that he was an actor—he looked the part —and had been cast to play the character of a country policeman and he was seeking information as to just what was proper in the way of a uniform. Mr. Hauschild described the po- lice ‘uniform worn here, but Sug- gested that an 1lifitting hat of an- clent vintage, baggy blue trousers, heavy shoes, an oversize coat, & big club and a massive silver star With three generals and many other high officers of the Army riding and Jumping their own mounts, thousands of Washington's official, diplomatic, service and social sete interested in . horsemanship were ent~rtained yester- day afternoon on the slope just north of the Washington Monument by one of the most picturesque and interesting horse shows ever held F-re.

Failure of the government to prove that the Emerald had established illegal connection with the shore was officially stated as the reason for release of the vessel, whose selzure had been the cause of protest by the British_government. At the State.

RESERVE UNITS' SERIES OF LECTURES ARRANGED First to Be Given Monday Night on Tactics and Strategy by Col. W. K. Naylor. Maj. John Scott, executive officer of the reserve units organized in and adjacent to Washington, in co-opera- tion with the Reserve Officers’ Asso- clation of the District of Columbia, has completed arrangements for a course of lectures during the winter at the monthly meetings of the asso- ciation. These lectures, it is an- nouneed, will be of the same charas ter as those delivered to the classes at Fort Leavenworth and the War College and will be given by office: who have been trained particularly a instructors in the -different lines of their specialties. The first of the lectures will be given at a_special meeting of the association Monday night at 8 o'clock in the Interior Department audito- rium, by Col. W. K. Naylor, who will take as his subject, “Principles of Tactics and Strategy.” Col. Naylor is instructor of tactics at the Army War College here, was chief of staff of the 33d Division and the 9th Corps during the world war and is the author of “Principles of Strategy.” Regular and National Guard officers are Invited, as well as reserve officers. Maj. Scott recently dispatched let- ters to reserve officers, in which he offers assistance in perfecting organi- zation, assisting instruction and in wny other matters which will be of sdvantage “to you as an officer of the Army of the United States, and to the government which we served.” In the letter Maj. Scott declared: “We all must agree that another war {8 not Impossible. “A commission in the Officers’ Re- sarve Corps is not an empty honor; it assures its holder, immediately on declaration of war, a position and command according to his commis- sion and assignment. It carries the obligation of preparedness; to be fit physically, mentally and profession- ally, to meet the test of war. “There is none of us who by some additional study and training, can- not increase his present military knowledge, and his value as a future commander of men.

With cold weather rapidly ap- proaching, Robert L. Lewis, secre- itary of the Coal Merchants' board of trade, again urged householders to- day not to insist upon one particular variety of fuel. “The local dealers,” said Mr. Lewis, “are fairly well stocked up with large broken furnace anthracite, but householders are showing a disposi- tion not to take it. “What we are trying to do is con- vince householders who ordinarily use stove coal to take at least ’cmlll quantity of the larger sizes.” Atm of the Dealers. All of the dealers are endeavoring to get a one-month supply of fuel| linto the gellars of all their cus- tomers before the mercury drops. » Walter C. Allen, secretary to the! Public Utilitles Commission, pointed | out today that distribution of fuel %o consumers after it reaches the dealers yard is slowed up somewhat by the rule which requires dealers to give each customer only a one- month supply. 2 Time Comsumption Noted. It takes much longer, Mr. Allen| d, to deliver five tons of coal toj fve different addresses than to dump | a five-ton load at one door.

Examination by Army officers of notes taken during the recent con- férences here with a selected group of civilians as to principles which should govern any future military draft regulations has brought out several distinct features which the conferees were agreced should apply to the classification of emlisted per- sonnel. Judgment of Civilia For one thing it was the judgment of the civillan conferees, all of whom had war-time draft experience, that work necessary in the Army should be classified by occupations in order that the classification of men called to the colors could be expedited and their assignments be based on the similarity of their civil training and military work they were best fitted to perform. It was also believed that the classification of men should be- gin when they were called by local draft boards and not awalt their ar- rival at mobilization centers. ,_Another point brought out was the ‘difficulty of dealing in the Army with men of low mental caliber. A sugges- tion was made the regulations should prevent such men from being called for active military service. In Harmony as to Service. The conferees were in harmony also as to the desirability of using men avail- able only for limited military service from the beginning of the operation of the draft law and not deferring such cases for later treatment. To meet the problem of dealing with limited service men and occupa- tional specialists the suggestion w: made that clearing pool centers for each of these groups might be estab- lished and that the excess from the various local boards could be turned over to these pools for further assign- ment. The plan would work especial- ly well in distribution of ecially qualified occupational specialists it ‘was held. SZE HALLOWEEN GUEST. Cornell Society Entertains Prior to Chinese Diplomat’s Vacation.

Large Merchant Marine Also Favored in Address at League Banquet. The maintenance of an American Navy up to the full quota allowed un- der the naval pact. signed at the con- ference here last year. and the estab- lishment of a large merchant marine to carry the American flag and mer- chandise into all forelgn ports was the appeal made to the country at large and members of the Navy League of the United States by Secre- tary of the Navy Denby at the nine- teenth annual banquet of the league at the Willard Hotel last night. “The broad jaws of the league of nations trap was set for the feet of the United States, but the trap was not sprung. The United States has re- mained free from entangling alliances of any kind, and will continue to shun them,” sald Mr. Denby, pointing out that the voice of the American people on the subject of alliances was heard in the 1920 elections and had been heeded. The Secretary of the Navy pointed out that the conference held here last year resultéd in the most extraordi- nary agreement in the way of limita- tion of naval armament ever entered Into by nations. He expressed the hope that the (wo nations that had not as vet ratifled the naval pact would soon do 50 and proceed with the scrapping. America Bears Lows. “For,” he sald. “the Navy of the United States accepted in letter and spirit the provisions of the treaty and started out to stop building at once. Tt cost the United States three hun- dred and thirty-six millions of dollars to scrap building that was already on the ways. The Secretary stressed the impor- tance of making the nation realize that adequate protection through means of an efficient Navy was neces- sary to the welfare of thé country and was by no means a sign of aggres- sion. Lord Louis Mountbhatten of the Brit- ish navy, in speaking for the junior officers of the British navy, declared that the attitude of the men and work done by the American Navy, in co- operation with the British fleet had made a lasting impression on tke whole generation of British nava officers. “We have learned to respect and care for each other,” declared Mount- batten, in speaking of the comrade- ship of the two navies. “Let our navies help to keep us friends.” “With a fifty-fifty basis comes a fifty-fitty responsibility,” declared Sam_Harris, Dominion president of the Navy League of Canada. in bring- ing the good will of the Dominlon to the American people and the greet- ings of the Navy League of Canada. He hoped for a bond of good will be- tween the British empire and America that would be indestructible. Admiral R. E. Coontz ¢ chief of naval { operations, urged the establishment of a large American merchant ma- rine. “Now that we have started the American merchant marine flag fly- ing on every sea, the Navy League should be one to see that taere is no backward step,” he sald. Boosts Merchant Marine. Admiral Coontz said that he had iooked back forty years and found at that time those in Congress were cutting down the Navy. with the result that since that time the naval line has never | been caught up and filled and that at times cadets at Annapolis had been graduated before time and that it had been necessary to enlist men with the offer of a bonus at terms ranging from one to three years instead of four. He pointed out that the naval center was shifting to the Pacific. apt. Osami Nagano of the Japanese imperial navy brought the greetings of Japan to the banquet. Other speakers included €ol.

Praise of former President Roose- velt's ‘upright manhood and Ameri- canism was given by the Rev. G. F. Phelps, principal speaker at memorial eexrcises at the Metropolitan Me- morial M. E. Church last night. The speaker praised the former President for his hardihood and manliness. sayinz that he was raised in New York and came from a rich | family, but that one of the best pic- | tures that he had ever seen of him was taken while he was dressed in cowboy attire. “Roosevelt made some encries while on earth, but these ought to be the enemies of every true American.” he said. - His talk was interspersed with many excerpts from the former President's speeches, and he read an original poem, “A Tribute to Roosevelt.” Letiers of regret at not being able to attend the meeting were received from President Harding, Chief Justice Taft and others. Representatives of the different wars were on the platform. including Commander H. L. Deam of the De- partment of the Potomac, G. A. R. P. H. Judy, World World Veterans: Willlam A.

Paying tribute to John Paul Jones, the Secretary of the Navy described his historic battle as the greatest single ship action in the history of the American Navy, and said that he was first among sea fighters of Amer- ican history. The courage and determination with which Jones fought his sinking ship to victory, Secretary Denby declared, was the proud heritage of every man who wore the American naval uni- form. Mr. Denby placed the wreath on the statue in the name of the Navy League, officials of which attended the ceremonies, which were impres- sive in their simplicity, and which ! TO INSTRUCT CADETS. .
