LIFE AT SEA NOT HARD
Steamship Owner Says Trou-
BILE Is Men Do Not Take Ad-
vantage of Opportunities.

The hardships OF the life OF a sailor
are not as great as they are pictured to
be, according to Capt. Robert Dollar OF
San Francisco, president OF the Dollar
Steamship Company, who appeared today
before a subcommittee of the Senate com
merce committee to recommend several
changes In the seamen's involuntary serv-
itude act which passed the House at the
last session Of Congress
Capt. Dollar declared that everything
had been done to put the life OF sailor
on higher plane, but that tho class OF
seamen was such that they refused to
take advantage OF 1t.
Could Employ Better Men.
Representatives Of the eeamen's union
replied that the enactment Of the bill into
law would benefit ship owners and oper-
ators. as It would enable them to employ
better men.
Capt. Dollar said that his company,
owned by American capital. was operat-
ing under the British flag 40 per cent
cheaper than It could be operated under
the American flag. as the laws of Great
Britain were not as stringent as those OF
the United States.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
ALEXANDRIA. Va, December 3, 1912.
Arthur Shanks, alias West formerly
chief engineer at the pumping station at
Rosslyn. Va. on a government reserva-
ton, charged with violation Of section
30 of the penal code, was, following
preliminary hearing yesterday afternoon
before United States Commissioner R p
w. Garrett, held for the action of the
grand jury. In default of a bail bond in
the sum of 81, 600 Shank was committed
to Jail. where he has been incarcerated
since his arrest in Washington N0vem-
Der 90 last
John Merritt, father of Marie Merritt
of 1870 Union street southwest, Wash
ington. was placed on the stand. He said
his daughter would be thirteen years
old December next He knew nothing
of the girl having gone with Shank until
she was arraigned in the Juvenile Court.
Washington, before Judge De Lacy, who
sent her to the Industrial Home School
for period of one year.
Visited Pumping Station.
The girl was next placed on the stand
and she testified that she had known
Shank for the past two years and made
frequent visits to him at the pumping
station during the past year and a half
She also admitted having taken other
girls to see him. three accompanying her
on one occasion. Witness said Shank
had given her money at sundry times. the
highest amount being 81. She also had
| written him notes asking for money and
signed her mothers name to them. This
she testified to under cross-examination
by Attorney Lewis H. Machen.
Throughout the testimony the girls
story was mistaken. Three other girls
named Pearl Dudley, Maggie COPYRIGHT
and Lydia Ritter, We're also present to
testify but the government decided that
the testimony of the Merritt girl was
amply sufficient at this hearing.
Two warrants charging Shank with the
violation of the foregoing section were
read to him by Commissioner Garrett
and he entered a plea of not guilty in
firm voice.

chief aim to attain rank as a force in

Much of actual value has been accom-
plished in previous conferences" Gov.
Norris said. but the conferences have
not been the potent factor they should
have been. No definite position has been
taken upon any question and no fixed
purpose has been accomplished There
seems to be no need for timidity on the
part Of the governors.
