REASON
FOR WOODEN
P|[|NC
DWyer Says Concrete Is Used
for Piers When Solid
Foundation Is Found

j. ]. Dwyer, president of the state
board of harbor commissioners, in a
speech before the Commonwealth club
at noon today explained the reason
why the state saw fit to build piers
on wooden piles In part Mr.. Dwyer
said:
''The matter of building wooden
piles is all a matter of foundation
Where the foundation will permit the
board of harbor commissioners will
always put in concrete, but where the
mud is SO deep and with no solid
bottom we are compelled to build
them of wood
This, however, is done only on the
recommendation of our board of en-
gineers assisted by the advice of the
consulting board of engineers ap-
pointed by the San Francisco Cham
ber of Commerce.
This board strongly recommended
that in foundations where the mud
is so deep that it would be impossi-
Bile to erect concrete piles wooden
creosoated piles be used. There are
many places along the water front
where the engineers have been un-
able to touch bottom"
State Treasurer Roberts yesterday
sold s4,675,000 of harbor bonds at a
premium of $1,000 to e. H. Rollins
& Sons This sale means the imme-
diate construction of four big new
piers on the water front, the widen
ing of several others and the building
of the Fort Mason tunnel and the
extension of the Belt railroad through
it to the exposition grounds.

HHLSON FIRM BUT
w READY FOR WAR

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The
American government is now pre-
pared for eventualities in Mexico.
The administration officials scout the
idea of war with the southern repub-
lie, but there was a distinct feeling OF
relief today when it became known
the advance preparations of war by
the departments has been completed.
Fourteen warships Off the coast of
Mexico can land more than 5000 men
as soon as word Is flashed that makes
such action necessary. There are
nearly 5000 soldiers along the border.
Adequate supplies for a land cam
paign by either the troops or marines
are ready.
President Wilson does not intend to
let wild reports from Mexico force
his hand. Neither General Carranza
nor General Huerta can move him
from the policy he has followed. He
intends, however. to protect Ameri-
cans and other foreigners in Mexico.
II marines have to be landed to pro-
tect property at Tuxpam or any other
point it will be made clear that this
is not a war movement, but one Gus
tomary under such circumstances.
