HARBOR
DRYDOCK EXPERT
HASRGR RECORD
Frederick R. Harris Succeeded
in Solving the Complicated
Brooklyn Problem

The Pearl Harbor drydock has been
the cause of much loss and worry TO
the United States government, and to
the contractors, but as an "outlaw" it
can't hold a candle to the one that
has recently been completed at the
Brooklyn navy yard. Now the man
who finally solved the complicated
problems of construction on the At
lantic side, has been named for the
second time on special board that is
to consider changes to the Pearl Har-
Dor ship basin. He is Civil Engineer
Frederick R. Harris, U. s. ~, who
was here last year as member OF
the Gayler board that investigated the
disaster to the local dock last year.
1t is admitted, however, that condi-
tions here are totally different from
those at the Brooklyn dock, and if
Harris is to again make good, he will
have to evolve an entirely new me-
thod of procedure. .....
Under the title, "The Hoodoo Dry
DOCK" Jonas Piatt publishes the fol-
lowing story of the battle at Brooklyn,
in the Technical World Magazine:
"Wi1l Pearl Harbor Earn the Same
Unenviable Distinction Before it is
Completed?
At last there is place on the east
ern coast of America where the
greatest dreadnought likely to be built
within twenty years can be properly
massaged and groomed for a fight or
frolic This recently completed
Drydock Number Four in the Brook
lyn Navy Yard was not built, how
ever, without extraordinary difficulties
being overcome. In fact it is called
the ''hoodoo drydock," since it cost
the lives of twenty men, the serious
injuring of four hundred others, and
brought two big contracting firms to

SCHOOL WARRANTS
TO BE REGISTERED
UNTIL NEXT MAY

The territorial school fund is ex
hausted, and the governor and terri

all school warrants must be register
ed from now until the latter part OF
next May. This order includes teach.
ers' salary warrants as well as war.
rants for all other expenses Of the ed.
Ecational department, but it does not
mean any hardship or. financial loss to
the instructors.
II merely means the teachers, after
receiving their warrants from the aud

urer's office for registration, after
which they can cash the paper at any
Of the downtown banks said the
treasurer. Interest must be paid on
the warrants, OF course, but that re-
sponsibility is assumed by the govern.
ment The teachers or any others re-
ceiving warrants will be paid the full
face value OF the paper.
This condition VIII exist until May
Is, when the taxes win begin coming
in, but the bulk OF the tax payments
probably will not be received until
late In that month. This depletion Of

CONNECTED With
CIRCUIT BENCH
Persistent Rumor Among the
Democrats That Local Attor-
ney May Be Appointed

A persistent report the latter part
of last week circulated in political
circles connecting the name of Attor-
ney Clarence w. Ashford with posi-
Bile appointment to a circuit judge
ship. One well-known Democrat ven
tured the prediction that Mr.. Ash
fords name would be shortly brought
to the attention of the secretary of
the interior for his consideration and
reference to the department of Justice
and the president. On Saturday the
rumor was widespread that cable
grams had already gone forward.
Whether Mr.. Ashfords name has
been brought out because Of the retire
ment from the bench of Judge Henry
e. Cooper could not be definitely as
certained. Mr.. Ashford has been a
candidate for the supreme bench but
he has received strong backing, 1t is
believed. for place on the circuit
list
Governor Pinkham was asked this
morning about the report but declined
to discuss it.
Several Democrats give the e<report
entire credence and are expecting de-
velopments In Washington.

age OF yield on many OF the planta-
tions due 10 drouth, have caused big
shrinkage In values, according TO the
returns made by practically all Of the
big corporations, the taxes from which
are depended upon to supply some
thing like 80 per cent of the revenues
OF course Il Is expected that the
board will boost up the figures In the
returns In considerable degree before
II gets through. but even at that, the
income for government purposes is go
a long time past, and this notwith-
standing the Increased rate fixed for
the various counties at the beginning
OF the year.
From casual survey II is most eyi-
dent that the policy Of retrenchment
advocated and put into early practice
by Governor L. f. Pinkham must be
carried out in all departments Of the
territorial and county governments.
Lack Of funds will make this policy
an absolute necessity. Just how much
the taxes will amount to this year
can not as yet be determined with any
degree OF accuracy.
