M ADOO FAYORS
BUYING OF SHIPS
Secretary Of Treasury Tells Com
mercial Club of Chicago U. S.
Should Buy Vessels.
WAR MAKES THE RATES HIGHER

| CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Secretary -McAdoo
declared tonight in a speech TO the Com
merciak club of Chicago that the admin
istratlon ship purchase bill now pending
in congress offers the only solution OF
the problem of how to build up an ade-
auate American merchant marine. IL
promises. he said, TO overcome many OF
the obstacles the European war has
thrust in the path of American trade
expansion and TO help prosperity.
The creation OF an American merchant
marine, he argued. is not a partisan
question, but policy which has received
the endorsement of both the democratic
and republican parties for thirty-five
years. Failure of the republican party
| to legisIate to that end, in twenty years
OF power, he said, showed II the more
culpable.
The democratic party" he added,
now has the power to legislate. and It
will be equally culpable IL II fails to act.
II will be even more culpable IL it does
nothing, since the emergency created by
the European war has emphasized. as
nothing else could have done. the supreme
folly of subjecting the foreign commerce
of this great nation TO the hazards OF
ocean transportation under the flags of
nations now engaged in the most gigantic
war of all time. Regardless of these
hazards, II is even greater folly from an
economic point of view to continue de-
iiberstely the policy Of trying TO build
up a great foreign trade by leaving to
our rivals the control Of the vitality inn
portant instrumentalities OF ocean trans
portation. So long as our competitors
own the ships, they make the rates. they
control the service and they determine
the routes. With this power It is easy
to favor their own commerce and dis
criminate against ours"
War Increases Rates.
The secretary pointed out that the with
drayal OF 13 per cent of the worlds total
steam tonnage-which before the war
| amounted to $4,000 tons--had operated
to increase ocean freight rates In un-
| precedented fashion. The lack of Amer
lean bottoms and the fact that neutral
ships cannot be depended upon has prac-
tically destroyed the trade of the United
States with some OF the belligerent ma
tons in non-contraband articles. ar.

Close observers point to the departure of functionaries, the shrinkage of ter ritory without contest at the approach of Carranza forces and the suspension of foreign-owned industries as indica- tions of disintergration.
 Francisco Escudero, minister of if nance, the last. of the Villa officials to leave Mexico, is reported in Los An geles; Miguel Diaz Lembardo, minis ter of foreign relations. is here. and Dr. Garza Cardenas. minister of Cob ernacion, is reported in Arizona.
 From an authoritative source it i learned the departments of govern ment have been moved unofficially to Juarez, mail service south of that city las been suspended and strict cen sorship Is maintained
 While Governor Avila remains in Chihuahua City, it is generally under stood the state practically is governed by General Manuel Oachoa, military commander at Juarez, and Col. Hipo- tito Villa, financial agent of General Villa. They hold in silence all plans of the Villa cause, collect it's revenues and dispense justice in the absence of esta ablished courts. From reliable sources, however, it is understood they have determined to evacuate Chihua- hua City in a few weeks, destroying all railroads and bridges in the north ward movement to impede Carranza forces until the end of the racing sea son in JuareZ.
 Officials in Juarez admit the south eI IAMosl punt CoAIlOIIeu Uy any VIld forces is Santa Rosalia, about 100 miles south of Chihuahua City.
