Terminal receiving stations in New
York city are the first requisite These
terminals must be distributed over the
metropolitan district for the receipt and
distribution of foodstuffs from every
where. so that the food may he dis
charged approximately in the section
or consumption so as to avoid tho
present great congestion and delay in
distribution.
Three OF these terminal markets
have been offered on rental to the
department without cost 10 the State.
The department proposes to develop
only one or two at a time.
This win open "A free channel for
the passage of foods from ne farms In
the country to the consumer in the city
without obstruction OF any kind, except
the single wholesale expense at the
terminals and the necessary cost of re-
tail distribution.
THE department believes that the
retail cost to consumers can be Rd-
justed on fair basis through the me-
dium OF publicity and through the in
huence of the department to encourage,
by advertising and otherwise. the trade
OF local distributors who maintain sanl-
tary stores and sell the goods at a fair
profit
THE department has no wish to disturb
present business. Some adjustments will
no doubt be necessary, otherwise there
would be no reform, but the easy flow
OF food under the law of supply and de-
mand will cause a larger consumption
and afford new opportunities for real
economic distributing service.

McAdoo and Burton speak.

Speeches respectively expressing strong
approval and disapproval OF the Admin
istration shipping bill were delivered be-
fore the Chamber OF Commerce OF the
United states by Secretary McAdoo and
Senator Burton Of Ohio this afternoon.
Secretary McAdoo appealed for sup
port OF the measure on the ground that
the country has not sufficient ships 90
provide for an easy flow OF our com
merce. He said that eXorhitant freight
rates are being charged for shipments
on vessels available and denied that any
international complications would be
threatened by the establishment OF the
Government owned marine
Senator Burton declared that the or
ganization OF shipping corporation
would he nothing more than mask
and that it would be real Government
ownership and Government operation
This, he said, might plunge the country
into International controversies. the end
and seriousness OF which may not be
foreseen

Of the chambers of commerce of the
United States. Before this was adopted.
a motion had been made to adopt the
minority report OF the committee on
merchant marine. which indorses the
Wilson ship purchase bill. This was
voted down.
Officers OF the association contended
tonight that the action OF the conven-
ton In turning down the minority report
should not be construed as a direct vote
against the Presidents plan as the ques-
tons presented involved a choice be-
{ cen the adoption OF the Administra-
tons plan and the submitting of the
matter to a referendum. No comment.

majority report
The plan suggested by a majority OF
the merchant marine committee provided
for "A permanent Federal shipping board

non-partsan and would have authority
to loan for seven years subject to re-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4-The annual
convention of the Chamber OF Commerce
Of the United States went on record to-
night as overwhelmingly opposed to
President Wilson's ship purchase bill.
The vote is regarded here as the most
impressive evidence that has yet ap-
peared as to the attitude Of the busi-
ness men Of the country toward tho
proposed Government ownership legisla-
ton.
The vote came on a report by spe-
ciaI committee on the upbulding of the
merchant marine. The majority OF this
committee. headed by william Harris
Douglas. reported that Government OPP

more extravagant and expensive than

This. Of course, amounted to a con-

committee itself proposed a plan for
the development OF the United states

the report was 1913 for and 90 against

Correction

1t appears that our predecessors of
30 years ago were as prone to error
at least as we are at the present time.
In one of our ancient news items
copied from the Skowhegan Clarion of
May 20, 1864, printed in a recent is
sue, il was stated among the reports
from the war that George Fowler, son
of Nathan Fowler, had been wounded
in the ankle. The George Fowler
referred to was n brother of Angus
tine Fowler, still resident of this
place. He was not wounded as
stated in the old paper, but came
home and died, his illness and death
being occasoned by a years contine-
ment in a Southern prison. The
member of the Fowler family. who
was wounded in the ankle was Nathan
who returned and lived here until his
death in 1913.
