Conduit Road Area Well Prepared for Raids, Cifizens Told Association Hears Deputy Warden; Merrill Sees Some Transit Curtailment| Pive Red Cross classes are in progress, emergency feeding and | housing units have been established and 250 wardens designated to serve the Conduit road community. Dep- uty Air Raid Warden Walter D. Cunyus told members of the Conduit Road Citizens’ Association last night. That such a raid will eventually be forthcoming Mr. Cunyus regards as highly probable. “It'll probably be a token raid, but we're going to get it sooner or later,” he declared. He predicted increased public in- terest in the work of citizens’ asso- ciations at the conclusion of the war, and called for the formation of permanent civilian defense clubs to preserve in future years the spirit of comradeship now being developed among volunteer defense workers. | Merrill Outlines Service. | E. D. Merrill, president of the Capital Transit Co., told the asso- | ciation of the great planning pro- gram undertaken by his company to meet the increased needs-of an ex- panding population, and to antici- pate the growing use of public ve- hicles by citizens who may no longer be able to maintain private cars. From a total of 1164 street cars | and buses in operation June 1, 1940, Mr. Merrill said the company had last week reached a peak of 1598 vehicles, and expected 2,000 would be avallable by July or August of this year. Aiding the company's efforts to provide maximum -service were the increased average size of both street cars and buses, and the advantages derived from the stag: gered hours of Washington's work- ing population. Sees Some Curtailment. He predicted, however, that the difficulty of obtaining sufficient re- placements of equipment, owing to | the demands of national defense, | would shortly necessitate a curtail- | ment of unnecessary stops and elim- ination of duplication of bus and car lines in certain communities. Thomas V. Regan complained that gervice in the Conduit road area was {nadequate, that intervals between cars were excessive and that many of the vehicles provided by the company were too old and peorly ventilated. He was told by Mr. Mer- rill that the limited transportation facilities now available required the company to apportion service ac- cording to number of persons using the various routes, and no further service could be extended to the Conduit road community without depriving some other section. President G. E. McGhee appointed SN S the following new chairmen of com- | mittees: Police, Grady P. Oakley fire, R. H. Blatter; recreation, Mrs J. R. Lyddane.

Demand from every clerk that any unnecessary wrapping of packages or un- necessary use of paper bags be dispensed with. Waste paper for paperboard is vital to the packaging of a great quantity of war equip- ment. Do not burn newspapers, but, when you have saved enough for a bundle, give them to the school- children who are co- operating in the defense pro- gram ‘with the parent-teacher organization in The Star's campaign for reclaiming old newu!per! 1l Desirable Kin FREE Famous _Pennsylvania White Ash Stove Chestnut__13.70 Egg Buckwheat_10.00 Pea _11.85 VIRGINIA ANTHRACITE— Peo, 9.25 Stove or Nut 10.75 POCAHONTAS — The highest quality soft coal for home use.
