Yellowstone Trains To Get Waitresses, Girls to Be Chefs By the Associated Press. SPOKANE. Wash. May 21.— “George" of the famillar “yassah” will disappear and pert, bobbed- .haired blondes and brunettes will balance trays in dining cars of the Northern Pacific’s Yellow- sfone Park trains after June 20. R. C. Taylor, assistant super- intendent of dining car service on the Northern Pacific, announced that girls are being trained to replace colored waiters, chefs and assistant_chefs on thelr trains running between Livingston and Gardiner, Mont. The new order, Taylor asserted, is in line with his company's effort to appeal to feminine tastes in the matter of food. “We cater to women,” he said, “because they are experts in food and know ail about it.

You are entitled to and ought to have some one on the Hill to represent you.” In condemning those who make of prohibition the root from which springs most of the crime, today, Mr. Snyder appealed for a return to teaching re- spect for law and the Constitution in the home and school. Crime comes of the age-old factors that have always produced it, he said, which are poverty, desire for riches and attempts to “keep up with the Joneses.” He said that Washington is the best governed and policed city in the United States, that there is less crime here than anywhere else in the country and that there is no underworld in the Dis- trict as the termis understood in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and other large cities. The picture painted by Mr. Gibson of the crime conditions in Washington and the country at large was less san- guine. While not offering any remedy, he pointed out that there were approxi- mately 50 homicides in this city during 1928, as compared with 17 in London. Against Jess than 40 homicides in Eng- land in 1927, he said, there were 12,600 in the United States. Police Pay Raise Favored. | The committee voted to indorse the | recommendation of Maj. Daniel J. Don- ovan, District auditor, that compensa- tion for the police be increased, but tabled the proposed resolution urging members of the Board of Trade to in- form the city authorities of all instances of cars equipped with smoke screens which came to their notice. It also was decided to support the bill in Congress for the regulation of the sale of fire- arms in the District. Odell Smith, chairman of the public order committee, presided. Among the | guests of honor were Maj. Donald A. Davison, assistant engineer Commis- sioner; Maj. Cary Brown, assistant di- rector of public buildings, and public parks: Edwin B. Hesse, former superin- tendent of police; Inspectors Ernest Brown and Thaddeus Bean, Assistant - | Director of Traffic Eldridge and Judge | Gus A. Schuldt of the Police Court.
