MARINE RESERVES PLAN MANEUVERS Bixth Brigade Will Hold Final Re- cruiting Nights July 10 to 12. \ ‘The 6th Marine Reserve Brigade will hold its final recruiting nights July 10 to 12, inclusive, at 458 Indiana avenue, prior to the brigade’s departure on Au- gust 6 for its Summer camp and ma- neuvers. Lieut. Col. J. J. Staley, brigade com- mander, and his staff have spent the last few days in Southern Maryland mapping the area between Stump Neck and Washington for the coming ma- neuvers. ¥ The brigade will proceed to Quantico, Va.. by boat. Only two evening pa- rades and less than one day of close order drill will take place at the Ma- rine base. The three battalions will fire on the .30-caliber range at Quan- tico and after that will cross the Po- tomac River under Navy landing force conditions. Once on the Maryland side the brigade will be on a strict expedi- tionary force status. Cooking will be by squad fires, shelter in pup tents. The brigade, while in Southern Mary- land and working toward Washington, will act as three separate combat bat. talions, offensively by Marine Corp headquarters plans and training office, while Regular officers will act as umpires and judges. The brigade will return to Washington, on foot, by August 16.

When President Roosevelt returns to the White House this week he will re- ceive official notification from Robert Fechner, director of emergency conserv- ation work, that the Army has success- fully c"fled out the President’s program of mobilizing 250,000 forest recruits in work camps by July 1. Figures obtainable from the War De- partment yesterday indicated that ap- proximately 240,000 recruits had been installed and put to work in nearly 1,500 forest camps. This total does not include the number rushed in at the rate of about 10,000 a day during the last 24 hours of the stipulated time limit. Actually a great many more men have been enrolled. for there are at least 20,000 men who have been dis- charged from the conditioning and for- est camps during this intensive period of mobilization. No official figure of the total discharges has ever been made public and it is likely none will ever come to light. Some officials, how- ever, think 20,000 is a conservative estimate. Various Types Discharged. ‘These men cannot be classed as de- serters. Some constitute the usual agi- tators and dissatisfied men to be found in any large group under similar con- ditions. Others were men who were “homesick” and simply wanted to quit. Still others were men who were un- fitted for the work and there were many also who wanted to get back to the cit- ies in anticipation of factory jobs being open soon. Just what his mobilization means in dollars being turned back to industry will not be known accurately until the official report of the great mobilization job is made to the President. Counting all initial costs of supplies, transporta- tion, pay of recruits and Army officers engaged in the work, the amount turned back into the channels of commerce is expected to exceed $50,000,000 up to July 1. The grocery bill alone for the C. C. C. {camps has averaged $90.000 a day, or $2,700,000 a month, based on the Regu- lar Army ration of about 30 cents a day per man, which each forest recruit receives in rations. The transportation bill probably will be the heaviest, and this already has run into millions of dollars paid to the railroads for passenger and freight service, despite the extremely low rates given the Government. Based on $3u a month and withqut taking into ac- count the 5 per cent who are to re- ceive $45, the p: $9,000,000 a month. The great bulk of this pay is being sent home to aw- pendents. Up to June 11 the manufactured sup- plies, clothing and equipment, pur- chased in the open market. totaled ap- proximately $6,500,000. This amount included only about two-thirds of the automobile trucks and conveyances re- quired. War Department officials re- ported they were unauthorized to give out the total cost of transportation and supplies. $150,000 for Telephones. The one item of telephone communi- cations—necessitating the running of about 30,000 miles of lines—cost an es- timated $150,000. This real economy was due to iue fact that the Signai Corps of the Army furnished most of the communication lines, which will have to be replaced. The official figure of 240.000 men 1 camp does not include the 27,000 World War veterans who have been recruiteu during the past week nor 34 perienced foresters who are being re- cruited locally in the various forest districts. More than half of the vet- erans are in camps, it was said at the { War Department. although official re- ports are lacking. A large proportion of the foresters, also, has been recruited y no Supervising the 240.000 recruits ai- ready in camp are 5459 cofficers, classi- ‘ficq as follows: 3010 Regular Army, | 1,672 Reserves, 510 Navy and Marine | Corps and 267 contract surgeons, who are not really officers, but have that status in camp. When the full force of 301,000 mea ‘Rre present and accounted for it)is ex- pected that fully 6,000 offi will have | o be on conservation duty. That num- | ber, however, will not have to be main- i tained after ‘the camps are all in good working condition. More than 8,000 3 | enlisted men also are on duty. {NAVAL LABORATORY [ MARKS TENTH YEAR Research Institution at Bellevue, D. C., Was Indorsed by Roose- velt in 1917. Yesterday was the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the Naval Ke- | search Laboratory at Bellevue, D. C. The laboratory was commissioned was authorized by acts of Congress in 1916 and 1917. Its establishment was heartily favored by Franklin D. Roose- velt, then Assistant Secretary of the Navy. His cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, jr., delivered the principal address at the dedication exercises. The Naval Consulting Board, organ- ized in 1915, first pointed out the need for naval research. Thomas A. Edison and other noted scientists served on the board without compensation. BRIDGES TO RETIRE | Former Adjutant General of Army to End 40 Years’ Service. | Col. Charles H. Brides, U. S.

'Thirty Organizations to Honor Feminists i in Sylvan Theater Memorial Pageant July 8 tional Woman'’s Party in a me- morial service to woman lead- ers Saturday, July 8, at 7:30 pm. at the Sylvan Theater on lhe\ Monument Grounds. This is expecied to be the greatest demonstration of | women here since the days of the | suffrage campaign. The National Woman's Party has ar- ranged the ceremony at this time in| tribute to Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont, | its former president who died last January. The public is invited. A/ thousand women will participate in a | colorful procession carrying banners honoring the great leaders of the wom- | an’s movement. | Carmela Ponselle of the Metropolitan | Opera, an ardent feminist, will make | her first appearance in the anlonal‘ Capital in these ceremonies. Her songs will be hymns to the triumph of wom- en, “Weep No More,” written by Mrs. Belmont shortly before her death, and | “Horizons Widen Ever,” by Josephine | Preston Peabody. Dr. T. Tertius Noble HIRTY women’s organizations of Washington will join the Na- roll alone is about|of New York has composed special | president of the party. music to these songs for this occasion. | Mrs. Marie Moore Forrest, who is directing the pageant, points out that it will be a symbol of life and the future rather than of death and the | past, for the ceremonies have a double significance carried in the words of | the special banner which will lead the long line of memorial tribute—"In Honor of the Past, in Pledge to the Future.” Tribute to Early Leaders. Women of national and international leadership in the woman's movement will pay tribute to the earlier leaders during the ceremonies. The invoca- tion will be offered by Dr. Rietta M. Emerson, assistant pastor of St. Paul's Methodist _Episcopal Church of Wil- | mington, Del., and president of the | International Quota Clubs. Mrs. Flor- ence Bayard Hilles of Wilmington, Del., national chairman of the Wom- an's Party, will offer thé resolution | pledgirg the women of today to carry the struggle of freedom to final suc- cess. Miss Doris Stevens of New York, chairman of the Inter-American Com- mission of Wemen, known throughout Latin America for her work in con- ! nection with the Inter-American Com- mission of Jurists, and who is to rep- resent the women of the Americas at the Montevideo conference in De- cember, will speak in praise of the vic- tories of the past and of the need of { women today to summon all their courage to meet the present economic situation which threatens again to re- duce women to a dependent class. In an especial interview with The | | Star, Miss Anita Pollitzer. vice chair- man of the Womar who has ! recently come to Washington to take charge of the equal rights campaign, recalled that “at each crisis in_the | woman’s movement. women turn back | ! for inspiration to the first leaders who nearly a hundred years ago laid down ! ong the lines of which the suffrage amendment, we were tak- | ing up the second phase of our work, | the removal of legal discriminations, | we held a great meeting in honor of | the pioneers, at Seneca Falls, where the first woman's rights convention had been held 75 years before. This memorial service in Washington on July 8 is the first time since that meeting in Seneca Falls, just 10 years| ago, that women have joined in re- | calling the leaders and the triumphs of the past. “Today we face another crisi: brought about by the world economic | collapse, and by the forces created by this deprgssion. Women, handicapped more than men, have been less al to meet present conditions. They are losing the gains they have won. They also, for lack of power, have been less able to make their proper contribu- | tion to the world’s recovery. There is | urgent need that they unite and con- | solidate their power.” Education and Opportunity. The pioneer women who will be hon- ored at this memorial include those vho opened the doors, not only of po- litical opportunity, but of education, of the professicns and of public serv- ice, to women. In many instances the groups which are participating, in addition to the honor that they pay to the pioneer women in general, will bear special tribute to some individual woman, who led in the work in which they are particularly interested. ‘The names of the pioneers that will be henored include Abigail Adams who, in the days of the Revolution, sought to have men and women made equal in the American Constitution; Susan B. Anthony, who first introduced the suffrage amendment in Congress; Mar- garet Brent, who petitioned Lord Balti- more for women's rights; Abigal Scott Duniway, who carried the cause West with the pioneers; Alice Freeman Palmer, founder of Wellesley; Sophia Smith, founder of Smith College, and Mary Lyon, founder of Mount Holyoke, all of whom opened the doors of edu- cation to women; Antoinette Brown Blackwell, one of the first women preachers; Julia Ward Howe and May ‘Wright Sewall, who stimulated the or- ganization of wcmen; Clara Barton, who won a place for women in nation- al life as nurses; Kate Sherwood, founder of Woman's Relief Corps; Frances and Bmma Willard and An- gelina and Sarah Grimke, who made the voices of women powerful in great movements of reform; Ernestine Rose, who was the first to demand property rights for married women: Elizabeth Blackwell, one of the first woman phy- | sicians, and Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady-Stanton, Lucy Stone, Anna How- ard Shaw ang Margaret Fuller, who devoted their lives to the cause of wom- en’s freedom.

PROPOSES HEARING ON FVE CENT FARE Keech Asks Commission to Amend Order for Bus Company Probe. Adoption of a 5-tent fare for the short haul should be considered by the Public Utilities Commission at the hearing Friday on the petition of two suburban bus companies to be allowed to serve passengers along their routes within the District, Richmond B. Keech, people’s counsel, dsclered yes- terday. ‘The two companies concerned are the Alexcndria-Barcroft-Washinz*on Rapid Transit Co. and the Arlingion & Fair- fax Motor Transportation Co Keech yesterday posted & letter to the commission asking that the order for the hearing be amended to include the question of the fare to oe charged, since this is not mentioned in the call for the hearing. Otherwise, he said, the fare matter might de barred from consideration on a technicality. The hearing concerns possible patrons of the bus companies between Highway Bridge and the bus terminal at Tenth and D streets. These passengers un- til recently were served at the rate of 5 cents, but were ordered to stop be- cause it was in violation of a commis- ion order. Government employes are most affected by the rue. “In addition to the application of the two companies,” Keech wrot: to the commission, “a petition listing sev- eral hundred names was likew filed with your body, requesting that the cervice heretofore furnished br the companies be restored, or that some existing Washington bus line be re- quired to substitute therefor. Tha2 pe‘i- tion likewise recites that the fare for the service rendered by these companies was 5 cents.” Mr. Keech said he believed no scurce, except possibly the local street railwa: or bus companies, would object to a 5- cent fare for this short haul.

However, | he hopes to make a couple of short | visits to his old home at Hyde Park, on \!he Hudson, before Fall. While the President has indicated the pressure of business will keep him close to his desk at the White House for the greater pert of the Summer, he has intimated he will indulge in one or more brief | trips. He is a firm believer in breaking | the monotony of work by indulgence in | some sort of an excursion. | When President Hoover visited Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands in the | Spring of 1931 he used the dreadnaught | Arizona, which had just been recondi- | tioned.
