WILL GROUP RAILWAY NGINEERS BY SYSTEMS w Plan for War Emergency Pro- vides Battalions Under Peace-Time Leaders. Military designations of railway en- gineers now being recrulted as part »f the organized reserves hereafter will contain the names of American vallway engineers. Under the plan smployes of the various systems would answer 2 call to the colors un- der the command of men who directed Rheir activities in peace times. The plan was suggested to the War Department by Lieut. Col. W. G. Arn jof the Illinois Central railroad, who s an engineer reserve officer and served in France during the war with the 13th Engineers (Railway). reach- ing his present rank. FPreviously the veserve program called for organiza- t'on of the railway units by corps wreas and without regard to the rail- way stems, the battalions to be fill- ¢d up with men of railway experience 48 they might apply. The new plan relieves the railway battalions from corps area restrictions, the personnel to be drawn from the entire railway system to which the unit is allotted. It would be the business of these battalions to operate trains and keep d equipment, while on work would fall e regular engineer Rallway operating bat- talions heretofore alloted to the regu- lar Army or National Guard for or- jzanization e been withdrawn and the entire job transferred to the Or- construc egun in rd Corps Area which as recommended that the four bat- altons assigned to it be allotted as ollows Pennsylv '~ region, headq [Chesapeake and quarters, Richmond. iese battalions will be designated in orde the 492d, 493d. 494th nd \°Sth Engineer battalions (railway). he full title of each will include the name of the system, however, the 192d for becoming the {824 Enxin lion (railway), ELECTRIC FLANT BURNS.

Willlamg announced to- day that it is uncertain whether his station, WPM, will broadcast its weel ly concert tonight. The generator is out of order, he sald, and if arrunge- ments can be made the program will be sent out through WDM, the Church of the Covenant station, which now is broadcasting the dally Lenten serv- ices at Keith's Theater. Selections by the Woodridge Mixed Quartet of the Sherwood Presbyterian Church, urider the direction of Charles N. Gordon, will be broadcast tomor- row night by station WJH of the White & Boyer Company, Willlam M. Doran, director of programs of WJH, announced today. The guartet fs composed of Mrs. Florence M. Conklin, soprano; Mrs. James M. Cooper, alto; J. Allen Bell, tenor; Charles N. Gor- don, bass; Miss Marguerite Harvers, Violln, and Mrs. James Benfer, ac- companist. A “French night" program, consist- ing of addresses and music, will be broadcbast tonight by WEAF of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company in New York city. The pro- gram has been arranged by Clement Rueff, founder and ex-president of the General Assoclation of Forelgn Press Correspondents. = On the night of March 6, a few minutes after station WJH signed off, I heard the song, “I Stutter Too Much,” sung, it seemed to me, by several people. I thought the announcement said it was station KDKA of Pittsburgh, but it faded out just then, so I am not sure about it. Could you possibly find out for me whether that song was sung from KDKA at that time? Ac- cording to your paper, the Serii- nel Quartet was scheduled for that night, 1 am the owner of a homemade crystal detector set, and I would like to know very much whether it was the Pittsburgh station or not, because that would be the tarthest 1 have received. If you answer this in the Radio column 1 will see it, because I am a sub- scriber of your paper. MAURICE N. THOMPSON. 622 11th street northeast. A — DIES ON STREET CAR.
