Mr.. Churchill then expressed tho
opinion that IL Great Britain and Ger

countries would follow suit, and they
would all be just ns great and as sound
as II they had built the ships at pres

not build. the obligation. he said,

Great Britain. and the fact that the
triple alliance ,Germany. Austria
Hungary and Italy, was building no
ships would make the proposal pos
slbe without the slightest danger or
risk. The first lord then added
Isn't II likely that so great and

Mr.. Churchill added. "Thst Is tho

to do everything within reason to pre-
vent accidents of any kind.
Power and light companies are anx-
ious to reach the people with their
service. They are anxious to sell their
products. They can make their bust
ness profitable in not other way. 1t is
to their interest to develop every COM
munity in the state to the highest pos
sible point, to bring every possible
community and every remote, outlying
district, where people live and work
into direct touch with the convent
ences of modern life.
1t is within the power of the public
utilities commission at this time to
give the power and light companies
a serious setback. 1t is within the
power of the commission to hamper
them badly in their legitimate opera
tons; to harrass them with arbitrary
and unreasonable rules; to load them
down with useless expense; to bar
them out from many thrifty and pro-
gressive communities; to confine them
to the thickly portions of the state
where they are already established,
and where the heavy and additionally
expense might be justified.
This is matter of grave concern.
There is not community in the state
that is not vitality interested.

Kendall's Account

Capt Kendall was on the stand for
several hours and gave a straightfor-
ward account of the disaster along the
lines of his testimony al the Rimouski
inquest.
Questioned by Lord Mersey as to
why he stopped his ship when he had
turned his green light to that of the
Storstad in conformity with naviga-
ton rules he claimed he took the step
as a safeguarding measure owing to
the fog. He could not be induced by
the lawyer for the Storstad, c. S.
Haight, to admit that his boat could
have drifted in front of the Storstad
unless the collier had changed her
course after the fog hid her from him,
which was the case, in his opinion.
Principal Points
That collier had not changed her
course after first sighting the EN-
press though abortive attempts had
been made to port Der helm after she
had been slowed dawn. and that the
Empress was crossing her bows, were
the principal points made in the tes-
timony of Alfred Tuftenes. first Of
ficer of the Storstad, who was exam
ined during the afternoon. This wit
ness also repeated the story that the
Empress sailors refused to go back
in boats to carry on r.scue work af-
ter once reaching the Storstad. Mr..
Haight supplemented the evidence of
Tuftenes at the request of Lord Mer-
sey, by giving as his explanation of
the disaster belief that the big liner
thought she could cross the bows of
the slow going collier and that her
helm was ordered ported by one Off
Ger and starboarded by another, sug-
| costing a confusion of orders that
Capt Kendall Indignantly repudiated.
New chapters illustrating the horror
| of the disaster were added by Capt.
Kendall in his testimony. the most
startling being his description of how
a sheet of flame burst from the En-
| press after she was rammed, the PROV
| of the collier evidently penetrating
| clear through TO her boilers. The first
| authentic account was also given of
| a distressing scene enacted when Capt.
Kendall on the verge of a collapse,
met Capt. Andersen of the collier when
the former reached the Storstad. APP
parently, until Capt. Kendall was TAX
en- away insensible he vehemently ar
gued that the collier had rammed him
at full speed. while Capt. Andersen
| contended that the liner was at fault.
No agreement could be secured from
the testimony of the two witnesses to-
day as to the whistles blown by the
vessels, though Lord Mersey discov-
ered when examining the Storstad S
first officer that he had blown sig
nal indicating that the collier was
stopped and had Immediately after
wards given an order to go slow
ahead Capt. Kendall also acknowl-
edged that although he knew col
| iision to be inevitable when the Stors-
tad came at the Empress in a fog, it
was not till after it had occurred that
| the order to close the water tight bulk
heads was given, by which time three
compartments had been exposed to the
! sea.

Bases Remarks on

Vice, immortality
Vigorous Attack on impress
siOns Generally Accepted

Chicago, June 16-George G. Kneeland
did some plain talking to delegates to
the General Federation of Women's
Clubs in convention today. Mr.. Kneeland
is director of the department of investi-
CATION of the American Social Hygiene
Association. His remarks were based on
statistics gathered by his department
and on the reports of investigators. He
found that a prolific source of supply to
commercialized vice comes from girls
between the ages of Is and IS years, the
dangerous age of the development of the
racial instinct, and that a startling mi
nority of these come from homes other
than those of poverty and ignorance.
Mr.. Kneeland's agents in the last year
lthave gathered histories of 800 girls not
/ yet professionally immoral, but well
started on the downward path. Contrary
to the general impression and the reports
of some investigators that the majority
of these girls are feeble minded or sub
normal, Mr.. Kneeland said the majority
of the girls are intelligent.
Some of them" he asserted, come
from such homes as yours. Some live at
home in idleness and ease. They are
typical American girls. But it is only
fair to say that the majority are poor
and ignorant, with side knowledge of
evil and little conception of good
