D. C. Naval Reserve 1
The U. S. destroyer Abel P. Upshur,
training ship ot the Ist Battalion,
United States Naval Reserves, of the
District of Columbia, returned to her
dock ln the Washington Navy Yard
last Sunday after an absence of more
than a month. During that period the
vessel was at the Norfolk, Va., Navy
Yard undergoing her annual overhaul
ing and drydocktng preparatory to be
ginning the annual cruises for the
training of the local Reservists.
Although It had been planned for the
Second Division Fleet to have Its regu
lar weekly drill aboard the vessel last
Monday, It was prevented from doing
so because the ship was taking aboard
fuel oil ln preparation for the first
cruLse which begins next Saturday. In
view of this the gun crews of this divi
sion will have only one drill night
aboard the destroyer before, that. or
ganisation starts for New England
waters for two weeks' training with the
Atlantic Scouting Fleet of destroyers.
As next Friday Ls a holiday, the offi
cers and men selected to make their
first cruise will take their physical
examination on Thursday night. It ls
usual to hold these examinations the
night before the cruise starts. Before
being allowed to make a cruise each
member of the organization must pass
an examination to determine his fitness
to enter active service for training.
During the period that the Upshur
has been away the gun crews have been
having drills with the gun-loading ma
chine in the armory, but they have had
no practice at the 'guns which they
will fire during target practice on the
second week of the voyage. However,
as soon as the vessel leaves her dock
here it Ls probdble, it was said, that
much attention will be given to the
training of the gun crews, and suffi
cient time will be allowed for them in
the daily drills. The importance of re
ceiving training for the full crews at
the guns ls stressed by the officers,
who point out that team work during
the firing helps the score because more
shots can be delivered ln the shortest
period of time.
It was said at the local Reserve head
quarters that no decision as yet has
been reached on the application of
Lieut. Harold Richardson, commander
of the Headquarters Division and ex
ecutive officer of the battalion, to take
the firet cruise. As no provision Ls made
for a separate cruLsing period for thLs
division, the officers and men who de
sire to make the cruises either have
to be divided up with the three fleet
division cruises or sent to other ships
of the Navy.
John F. McCue, seaman, second
class, has been ordered to an indefinite
period of active duty and has been de
tailed for service as a shipkeeper
aboard the Upshui^

He has developed his sense of touch

; Department, although it Is expected

the discharge of several young men
who have won appointments to the
United States Naval Academy at An
napolis, Md.
Men who do not make the regular
cruises assigned for their respective
divisions, it was indicated, will not be
allowed to go with the other divisions.
; This practice has been stopped, it was
said, because it left a short crew on f
some and caused crowding on the oth
ers. It was pointed out that unless men
go with the divisions to which they
are assigned that they will not be al- f
lowed to make cruises at all. In some
instances, however, it was said, men
are transferred to the other divisions,
but the changes are permanent and
the sailors are not allowed to return
to the divisions to which they formerly
were assigned upon completion cf the
cruise.
The members of the messmen branch
of the local Reserve held a dance at the

Lfeut. (junior grade. John W. Price,

Lieut. Dayton, who was executive and
engineer officer. Lieut. Dayton will b«
in command during the cruising pe-*
riod of the vessel, but it was indicated
that at the conclusion of that period
, a lieutenant commander would be as
signed here. It, was said to, be prob
able that the new officer would take
charge of the engine room during the
cruises and that an executive officer
and navigator would be selected from
the Reserve officers who will make the
cruises. In addition to the local con
tingent of Reserve sailors, a division
w’ill come here from Baltimore for each

U. S. Military Attache Sees
Colony as Civilizing
Agency.
RIO DE JANEIRO. June 1 28 UP
; From the fact that the Indians Inhabit
ing the country around the Ford rub- ‘
ber concession on the Tapajos River
have given their confidence to the
American enterprise to such an extent
that they bring their sick to be treated
there, the possibilities of the enterprise
j as a civilizing Influence loom large. In
, the opinion of Maj. Lester Baker.
! American military attache, who recent
j ly visited the Amazon Valley.
Maj. Baker was particularly impress-
I ed with the work done by Capt. E. Ox
holm. manager of the concession, and
his staff In providing sanitary living
quarters for the 1.800 employes, some
thing rare In that part of Brazil. There
are only nine foreigners employed at
Fordlandia.
“After traveling through hundreds of
miles of jungle to come into Fordlandia
Is like a dream," Maj. Baker said*
I 'Here Is a little corner of the Unitea
States. There are six sets of staff
houses and four foremen’s quarters. All
are equipped with modem plumbing,
electric lights, telephones, electric re
frigerators. washing machines, screens,
pianos and Victrolas.
j "The finding of such homes in a
country where the ordinary dwelling Is
a mud hut with one door and window
is wonderful."
Wharves 240 feet long have been con
structed and there are five power boats
in the river equipment. More than 100
miles of roads have been constructed.
There is a hospital of 100 beds In
charge of Dr..C. Beaton and a trained
nursemakes aaily visits to the native
village.
A radio station communicates with
the branch office at Para, a farm for
i growing vegetables Is in operation and
a range of 500 acres grazes the cattle
used for beef. f
Planting is going on rapidly, an av
erage of a hundred acres a week being
cleared of tropical growth and placed
under cultivation.
Known as the science of trichology.
the new study of the hair Is having
widespread results in Europe, and hair

ing light upon the men and animals of
past ages.
