The Trinidad Citizens’ Association last night urged that provisions of the terminal act of 1903 be complied with and a bridge be constructed over the Pennsylvania and Baltimore & Ohio Railroads rights of way at West Vir- ginia avenue. They opposed a bill now pending in Congress for the construction of an underpass, since the terminal act pro- vides for overpasses. The association also opposed per- mitting railroad tracks to cross New York avenue to industrialize an area south of the avenue. Ask School Building. A resolution asking for the construc- tion of a combination elementary and junior high school at 1610 Bladensburg road opposite Mount Olivet Cemetery was adopted. Copies of the resolution will be sent to the Board of Education and the District Commissioners. Communications were sent to the| Capital Transit Co. and the Public| Utilities Commission urging elimina- | tion of the “hairpin” turn at Union Station of the Trinidad-Burleith busses. They asked that the busses use the same route that the street cars use at Union Station, passing directly in front of the station.

Because the documents are to be| stored on steel stacks 21 feet high, the system revolves around the protection of these stack areas when they are closed. “Inside Jobs” Prevenied. Should a person try to force his! entry through any of the doors leading to the stack areas an alarm will sound | and a record will be printed automat- ically giving the exact door being | tampered with.

If any noise is made or a door is opened when protection is on, an alarm will sound and the printed record will establish the time and place.

By the Associated Press. ABOARD THE U. 8. 8. PENNSYL- VANIA, in maneuvers off California, April 30.—Through the night the mighty United States fleet of more than 130 fighting ships moved, chiefly in scattered units, illuminated only by dim ‘blue lights below decks. Patrols were vigilant on every craft SEE to make certain no lights were visible. Defense against submarine and de- stroyer attack at night is one of the important factors. On the destroyers and submarines, whose most effective work is done at night, lights were also’ darkened. ‘The largest and most powerful sub- marines in the world are participat- ing in these maneuvers, such cratt as the 371-footer Norwhal and Nautilus, and their slightly smaller but equally feared sister ships of Division 12. ‘These undersea cruisers have to their advantage one of the most val- uable assets in sea fighting, the ele- ment of surprise. They are consid- erably faster than the train-supply ships of the Navy, and their officers know that a fleet is no faster than its slowest élements. One of the reasons for the shroud of secrecy thrown about the ma- neuvers by Admiral Joseph Mason Reeves, commander in chief, is ob- vious in this connection. It is to safeguard from the officers of the opposing fleets what move- ments and dispositions their adver- saries plan. Dobbs Hl:l Foot-Joy Shoes 14th & G STS.
