COUNCIL REFUSES TO QUOTA NOT REACHED nBPortation of Children Fraa Sun- Schools Will Give Only One Day For Thanksgiving. There was nothing incorporated In he minutes of the regular meeting ot the board of education held yesterday jfternoon as taking official cognizance 0f the recommendations made last Veek n the rePrt of the ffrand Jury relative to conditions at the Union jcho1- i However, the matter was discussed na in view of the fact that plans are 0tv under way for the discontinuance 0f the use of this building for school purposes it was deemed unnecessary ,to take further steps at this time, other than to have repairs made to the heat Incr system, which H. E. Longley stat ed were needed. The board held that there was no ouestion for it to settle except as It concerned the heating system and sanitary conditions. Mr. Longley had made an Investiga tion and found that the valves to some of the radiators are out of commission which prevents the turning on of the tteam. It was ordered that this be attended to immediately. But con cerning the plumbing, " the sanitation 0f which was celled attention to In the grand jury report, Mr. Longley stated that his opinion was that it would not be proper to spend any money on this since the building Is heinsr used only temporarily and will be abandoned after a few months. He said that the plumbing in the building Is obsolete but advised against the ex penditure that would be necessary to refit the building. The board made it plain that the members have the interest of the chil dren who use the Union school at heart, and pave assurances that the program, looking to the abandonment of the building, which was started sev eral months ago, would be carried out as expeditiously as possible. A letter from W. E. Price, who was secretary to the grand jury, and whose name was sig-ned to a communication in Sunday's Star, with that of the fore man. Louis T. More, and two other grand jurors, O. B. and O. B. Smith, was received and ordered incorporated in the minutes of the board. Mr. Price states that he did not know the com munication was to be used in a news paper. The letter follows: Letter From Mr. Price. "To the Board of Education, New Han over County, City, "Gentlemen: In yesterday's Morn ing Star there appeared an article pur ported to be sig-ned by me as secre tary of the former grand jury with reference to the Union high Bchool buildin.z. "I fear that you gentlemen will get the wrong conception of my Intention in connection with this article. At the Time Mr. Louis T. Moore called me over the "phone on Saturday and ssked permission for my name to be uttached to this article, which I did not read personally. I understood from him that he was desirous of giving this article to the chairman of the hoard of education and" ask him to submif it to your board at their meet in? today and it did not carry my name with arvy purpose of putting it in the newspaper and at the time I consented I did not know that the matter had any political aspect. At any rate when my attention was Call ed to this article I thought it-was only fair to you to personally investigate this matter, which I did but not only from a building standpoint but from a financial standpoint. After discuss iSf th? matter with the architects, contractors, and county treasurer, I find the following facts: "Some weeks ago the contract was t and the building is now in prog ress for the addition of nine rooms to tfe present high school making a to tal of 23 rooms and I find that the oard of education is to a ban don th Jnion school entirely and dispose of nis tmon school property Just as fls they can consistently do so, we present high school building to be occupied by the Union school children ana the new high school, is to be erect at 13th and Market street where he I tr thls neT7 hih school build-7-has already been' purchased and W'o for.

Petition. SUrned by Several Hundred Name Were Presented Protesting; Against A Change In Method .. of Operation. City council, upon motion of Coun cilman W. J. Bradshaw. seconded by Councilman I I. Shepherd, last night declined to permit the Tidewater Power company to operate the propos ed" one-man street cars. Raymond Hunt, general manager of the company, who appeared before the body about two weeks ago and asked council to take under consideration the matter of rescinding the ordi nance requiring each car to be man ned by two men, addressed the body last night setting forth additional in formation tending to show the advan tage of the one-man car when equip ped with certain patented devices. Labor union men were present rep resenting the. motbrmen and conduc tors and presented petitions protest ing egainst a proposed amendment of the present ordinance making the op eration of a one-man car permissible. In making his motion Councilman Bradshaw stated that regardless of any improved schedule that might ac crue or any additional hardship under which the operators of the cars might have to work, he was convinced that the one-man car would bring about conditions that the people would not put up with. He was of the opinion .that the proposed plan operating cars would increase the risk of injury to passengers through accidents, and for that reason he introduced the motion that the present system be maintained. There was n'o other discussion by any member of council. Mr. Hunt did not ask action last night but submitted an amendment to the present ordinance whereby his points would be gained and requested council to consider the matter further and in the meantime allow him to de monstrate the workings of a car after it is equipped with the proposed pat ented devices. He said he . expected opposition as it was natural that, just on the face of the proposition, one would assume that as efficient ser vice could not be given with one .man on a car as oould be given by two. He was somewhat of that opinion himself until he studied the matter. To strengthen his argument Mr. Hunt read the following letter from the manager of the Tampa, Fla., Electric company: "We have your inquiry of Novem ber. 18 regarding the operation of safqty, or one-man cars upon the street railway -lines In the- city of Tampa. We serve about 70,000 people and until the early part of this year practically all of our service was given with open cars, the only exception be ing a suburban line about 10 miles in length on which double truck closed cars are used. We now have 23 Birney safety cars with six more en route and 10 more under order. At present 40 per cent of our car miles are being operated with these cars and when the other 16 are in service, making 39 available, about 0 per cent of our car miles will be so operated. "From the beginning these cars have been operated on two of our most im portant lines. In both cases the head way has been reduced, compared with previous operation, and therefore, the public receive more frequent service. That this service Is more satisfactory to the. public is shown by the increase in the number of people riding on these lines. It, of course, would have been impossible for us to give this more frequent service with the old type of equipment as riding can hardly be expected to increase to the same ex tent that the service is increased; therefore, a more economical unit 1b necessary in order to give the public what really is to their advantage; that is, cars at more frequent intervals. "As was to' be expected, there was( doubt on the part of some people ad' to whether the new type of service would prove as satisfactory as the old. I believe it is safe to say that practically all of the people served by the lines on which these cars operate are now more satisfied with the ser vice they are getting than they were with tHe old service. It simply re quired a few weeks of operation to convince the doubtful ones of the im provement. Patrons of lines not equipped with this service often in quire as to the possibility of a change being made on the particular line they use. "One Important matter is that of accidents. Our experience has beejn that we are having fewer accidents per thousand car miles with those cars than is the case with the others. "We are firmly convinced that this type of service is a great step forward in the street railway field, and that, because of the better results from the standpoint of the traveling public, it will be adopted In ,many cities as rapidly as the" companies may be in a financial position to provide the equip ment and track facilities." One of the petitions was- from the motormen and conductors of the Tide water Power company while the other was signed by between 1,200 and 1,300 persons reputed to be patrons of the car line. In regard to the condemnation of the Hayden property on v Third street, which Building Inspector Charles Schnlbben has recently ordered torn down, E. K. Bryan addressed council and asked for an extension of time, Stating that the property now virtual ly in the Jiands of the court arid has been advertised for sale by public auc tion on December 11. The present owner, he stated, only has a life right in the property and has right to sell the building- and should she have it torn down It might result in a contro versy. He asked for an extension ox time Uhtil after the January term oi superior court when the sale will .be passed upon by the court, under an order of which the sale is to be made. The "request was granted and Building Inspector Schnibben stated ythat he would not proceed to tear the building down tomorrow as he had previously announced. " ' ,lz Dr. Charles- E. Iow, county health officer, upon request, appeared before council relative ' to the coming of a carnival which is schedule to show here this week under the auspices of the union of musicians and stage em ployes. -It was thought that -some ac tion would be taken last night pre venting the carnival from showing here and Dr. Low was requested to attend the .meeting arid advise the .,n oo n what effecrrit might have- in causing 'a further spread of influH enu .The 1 matter was not brougr&t Another Meeting; Asked Por Friday to Receive Plans for the Establish ment and Maintenance of Juvenile Home. The opening of bids for the enlarge ment of the city water plant and the hearing of the proposition of helping to finance an institution for the deten tion of wayward girls and boys, which the grand jury, in its report to Judge Stacy last Thursday afternoon, recom mended be established and maintained, are two important matters that are planned to be brought to he attention of city council at special meetings this week. The bids for the enlargement of the water plant will be opened at a special meeting t obe held at noon Wednesday, while the committee appointed by the grand, jury to investigate the establish mentof the home has requested a meet ing Friday evening, at which tentative plans will be outlined. These plans were to have been out lined at a joint meeting of council and the board of county commissioners at the . meeting last night but the com mittee was unable to get all the 'in formation desired by that time. The committee met at-the home of Mrs. W. B. Cooper at 11 o'clock yesterday morn ing, following which it was stated that several propositions were .discussed. However, further information relative to one or two of these was desired which could not be obtained before the meeting last night and consequently the conference with council and the commissioners was postponed. If there are any further propositions which any one would like to make, relative to sites for the proposed home, they are requested to notify Louis, T. Moore. The enlargement of the water plant to comply with the specifications and recommendations of specialists from the United States public health ser vice, will involve approximately $50, 000 and it is expected that the contract will be awarded a the special meeting at noon tomorrow. The Improvements include the doubling of the sedimen tation basin capacity and the installa tion of two filtration units. The recommendations of the health experts also call for the extension of the intake from the Northeast to the Northwest branch of the Cape Fear riyer, and it ' isx understood that this part of the recommendations will eventually be carried out, but as it would involve the expenditure of such a large amount of money, and as the en largements' that are to be started at once will supply the immediate de mands, it has been decided to postpone the extension of the intake until some later date whert It is possible that it may be accomplished for considerably less money. EMPLOYMENT OFFICE WILL CONTINUE TO RECRfcJrr LABOR Curtailment of - Work at Government Controlled Plants be Gradual. The United States employment ser vice offices and the community labor boards were advised yesterday that the control end responsibility for re cruiting of unskilled labor for war work continues for the time being. The telegram also stated that much of the work is continuing and that the curtailment program will be gradu al. The community labor boards very probably will be called on to- make labor surveys in the different com munities in which they are located. Efforts to secure men from non-essential industries has been stopped. This includes the work which has been carried on here under the direction of the Wilmington community labor board by the police department. Chief Williams stated yesterday that a large number of names had been secured of persons engaged in non-essential work. This work was commenced be fore the armistice was signed and was continued for several days await ing Instructions. The United States employment ser vice ha a number of applications from men of different trades as well as quite a list of clerical workers who are seeking work in this city and sec tion. Employers are requested to file their orders for help of any kind to fill their requirements. ed that, in view of the factthat the troupe may have been in infected dis tricts, there might be some danger, but no protest whatever was entered by him. Mr. Holdridge, of the Emergency Fleet corporation, requested council to permit the Atlantic Coast Line to move its track on the extreme southern end of South Front street, the request be ing granted. The change only in volves the "sliding1 over" of the track for about six feet. J No action was taken last nigjht in regard to increasing the salary of city employes ' including firemen and policemen, but Councilman McCaig gave assurance that this matter will be acted on at the next regular meet ing and that any increase that may be made will date from November 1. . fThe water situation in many sec tions of the city, due to the briny Ncon dition of that supplied through, the city mains, has become a serious proposition, Councilman Bradshaw stated, and in some sections the people are really suffering for palatable wat er to drink. Pumps, private and pub lic, have been drawn on during the past several days, but theue are not accessible in every neighborhood. The low water in the Cape Fear, due to the continued drought, has resulted in high tides forcing salty water up to the' city intake, and the filtering plant is unable to remove the salt from it.

At Ail Ctut Stoisss ' v Oanvassinsr Committee "Will Make Ef fort to Carry County Oyer the Top Before Tomorrow .Nlglit -ladies' Teams Disbanded. The people of Wilmington and' New Hanover county must subscribe an ad- ditional sum of 52,500 before the unit- ed war work campaign closes tomor row night if the county reaches its original quota of $57,500, and a vast ly larger sum than this must be raised if any progress is made toward reach ing the 50 per cent over-subscription which Director General John R. Mott, of the national war, work drive, states is necessary to cover the budgets of the seven welfare organizations con ducting the campaign. When the canvassing committees met at dinner at. 6:30 o'clock yesterday evening in campaign headquarters, subscriptions amounting to $6,798 were reported as the result of the day's work, making the. total amount raised to date $55,119. This Sum is ?2,381 be low the county's quota. A number of industrial organizations, including both shipyards, one or two rural com munities and some of the negro . or ganizations ha"d not turned in com plete .reports last night, and it is be lieved that pledges amounting to sev eral hundred dollars are being held by these organizations, which, of course, brings the county much nearer its goal than reports made last night show. Since the national committee has ex tended the war work campaign two days giving each county until Wed nesday night to complete its quota, canvassing committees of the oity and county organizations will conduct an intensive campaign this morning among the business men of the com munity in order to complete the coun ty's quota. When the canvassing teams meet at luncheon today at 1:10 o'clock, City Chairman Marsden Bel lamy stated last night, the county will have gone over the top, for he believes, as do the rest of the members of the, war work'' organisation, that citizens of Wilmington and the county . at large are too proud of their past achievements and of the county's rep utation to fall down now and fail to give their share when they are asked to contribute to the comfort and pro tection of the boys who have faced death for them and have gained the victory in a struggle that meant so much or the future happiness and well-being of American citizens. The war work drive will continue without let-up until Wednesday night. After the county's quota has been reached today, the teams will contin ue working In an effort to raise a large eubscription above the quota. County Chairman Roger Moore read the following telegram at the dinner last night from State Chairman George W. Watts urging that the campaign be continued to the very last minute: "United war work drive will be ex tended through Wednesday by action of the national committee. This is necessary because peace celebrations throughout country monopolized first two days of the campaign. We urge you to continue with renewed vigor and secure over-subscription asked by President Wilson. Letus work to last minute and show our sincere apprecia tion of the boys over there. Do not fail to wire us Wednesday, sure, whether 'we may Include your county in cablegram to North Carolina boys overseas as having over-subscribed quota." In reports of subscriptions handed in to headquarters at the committee dinner last night, results accomplish ed by the ladies' division far surpassed the work of other divisions. This has happened frequently during the cam paign, and a great deal of credit for the amount contributed by New Han over is due th ladies who canvassed the city. The ladies have worked splendidly during the drive, as City Chairman Bellamy said last night, when a' rising vote of thanks was giv en them for their faithful support of the campaign. Inasmuch as the ladies' teams have worked so hard during the past seven days of the drive, it was felt to be asking a little too much of them to continue two days longer, so the ladies' division, was disbanded last night, and the men connected with the organization assiumed the responsibili ty of carrying the county over the top during the last two days of the cam paign. Luncheon will be served at campaign headquarters today as usual, and every man connected with the united war work drive is expected to be present. Subscriptions . secured yesterday by the canvassing teams are as follows: Retail division, $65; banks and cor porations, $27; wholesale division, $167; flying squadron, $250; professional men, $125. In the ladies' division, Cap tain Solomon reported $377;- Captain Bryan, $829; Captain MacRae, $500; Captain Whitehead, $1,031; Captain Solky, $509; and Captain Carr, $172; making a total of $3,418 secured by the ladies. The total for the day was $6y 798. : : ; " " At the end Of the dinner a vote of thanks was given to Mr. and Mrs. W. A. French for their-kindness in permit ting the use of the French building' without cost. DRAFT BOARD GETS ORDERS. Instructed to Classify Men, But Not to Examine Them. The motive of the war department in having draft boards continue the clas sification of registrants between the ages of 18 and 37, -and at the same time announce that thousands of men now .mobilized are to be discharged from the service, continues to puzzle local draft board officials. A few days ago the city board received orders to mail out questionnaires to all 18-year-old registrants and yesterday another telegram was "received from the ad jutant general' office in Raleigh in structing that the board proceed with the classification of 18 to 37-years-old men, butato4cease physical examina tions. Draft board officials can't understand why the men are to be classified and not 'examined; neither can they under stand why the war department is go ing to the trouble to have these men classified unless they are to be called into the service and they also fail to see any logic m the mobilization of men now in civil pursuits while dis--charging men under arms. There is only one possible solution that they -have been able to agree on, and tjiat - is that the government is planning to give -these ma s , ported c. .mtnsiva military training - Bodies Accompanied From Fort Oas. well by Military Escort -Bed Cross Directs Funeral Arrangements -Graves Photographed. Very impressive, as all military fun erals are, was the funeral service con ducted from St. Mary's Pro-Cathedral yesteTday morning at 11:30 o'clock for ten Porto Ricans, former passengers on the City of Savannah. Eight of the islanders died of pneumonia between Friday morning and Sunday night at the Fort Caswell hospital; where they were taken for treatment after leav ing this city; the other two succumb ed aboard the - steamer. The bodies were brought from Fort Caswell yesterday morning on the steamer Morrison, attended by Col. A. W. Chase, commanding office? at the fort, and a military escort which in cluded the fort's band. The military relief committee of the Red Cross met the bodies at the boat-landing and with a detachment of infantry from W, L. I. armory and a contingent of the neero Red Cross followed the cor- 1 tege to the national cemetery where interment was made. The Very Rev. C. Dennen, of St. Mary's Pro -Cathedral, conducted the f uneral service, read in or h ma ss nnrl solemn requiem. Appropriate selec- j tions. Including "Rock of Ages" and the Spanish national anthem, were t played by the band, and as the coffins were lowered into the grave, the bu- ) gler sounded taps. The ten men were laid side by side, enclosed in hermeti cally sealed, caskets, so that if rela tives or authorities' in Porto Rica wish they may exhume the bodies at a later date and convey them to their native island. When the last clods had been, piled on the grave, the mound was covered with many floral designs, most of them contributed by the Red Cross. No less than 33 wreaths were included in the floral contributions. The Red Cross had a photographer to make a pic ture of the graves, covered with flow ers, and a copy of this picture, to gether with a personal letter from the Red Cross chapter, will be sent to the families of each of the Porto Ricans, telling how they met their deaths and describing the attention given to their burial. Approximately 140 Porto Ricans are now at the fqrt hospital ill with pneu monia. During their sickness- these men have been given the very best of medical attention, and Colonel Chase has provided for their comfort in ev ery possible 'way. Father Winkler went down to the fqrt yesterday to assist in caring for the men during their illness. Following is a list of the ten island ers buried: Guroslndo Sanchez, Guay ama, P. R., died at 2 p. m. November 15; Manuel Ameroco, Cayey, P. R., died 6 p. m. November 15; Msfnuel De La Rosa, Manito, P. R., died 1:25 p. m. November 16; Manuel Rivera, Grecileo, P. R., died 8:30 p. m. November 16; Toro Antonio, Mayagauz, P. R., died 6:20 p. m. November 17; Modesto Car rion, home unknown, died 1:35 p. m. November 15. The names and homes of the remaining three were unknown. Two of them died ort the City of Sa vannah, the third died at the Fort hos pital November 15. The Red Cross has been very atten tive to the Porto Ricans while- they were suffering. When the steamer was docked here the chapter contrib uted a supply of clothing to the men, many of whom were very poorly cloth ed, and assisted them whenever it could.

Large audiences attended the Grand theatre yesterday afternoon and last night to see "The Grouch," a moving picture with local scenes. Practically all the scenesin the first three parts were' photographed at Greenfield lake and in the swamps of Town creek, where some very beautiful scenic ef fects were secured. The picture was all that local movie fans had expected. The leading parts by Montagu Love and Dorothy Green were well acted. The story, written by Forrest - dalsey, holds the interest to the end and is highly entertaining. Halsey based his , story on material gathered by him while hunting in this section last winter. His guide, an old darkey of ante-bellum days, told him some fantas'tic tales In which a wild tribe of gypsies and a very dark and dismal swamp played important parts, and when Halsey returned to his home in Predericksburg.Va., he incorporat ed these tales in the scenario released yesterday by the World Film corpora-' New Coats, so new that they just '' reached us yesterday and combine all of fashions -most favored tendencies.
