GET NO PROTESTS
OVER PROPOSED
SHIP PURCHASES
Wilson Says Conferences With
Diplomats Have Revealed No
Objections to Measure Now
Pending in Congress.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2.-The ship
purchase bill is not doomed TO defeat.
Pres't Wilson indicated today. He
stated that the bill had been the sub
ject of various cOnservatiOns between
the state department and diplomats
that no protest of any kind had been
made by European nations against
the prospective purchase Of foreign
ships. The president expressed the
hope that the progressive republicans
will support his measure when 4 few
amendments are made to il that are
not inconsistent with the purpose of
the bill. He told his callers that
the bill ultimately will be passed.
He made IL clear that ne was willing
to have the ship purchase measure
amended provided the amendments
did not alter the general purpose of
the bill. He would not commit the
senate democrats as To the amend
ments, however, and said he was not
expressing an opinion as TO whether
the amendments would be acceptable
10 them.
Sen. Kenyon Of Iowa. and Norris
of Nebraska, two of the strongest
progressive republicans in the senate.
conferred with the president and ii Is
understood that a general course of
action was agreed upon The pTesi
dent showed 10 them that the bill as
1t stands meets many OF the objec-
tiOns which they have urged against
it.
The president does not think that
any democratic vote will be lost 10y
the amendments which have been
proposed. To the best Of his knowl-
edge. he added. few of the German
ships interned in American harbors
were of the tramp type and indicated
that the United States could build
steamers of the same type within a
short time.
Under the new alignment OF forces
in the senate, the administration
leaders admitted they were outnum-
bered by two votes and were beaten
unless they could win over some OF
the progressive republican senator's
by making concessions in the form
Of amendments 10 the bill. COnse-
quently the caucus was called 10 con-
slider the oVertUres TO be made
it is understood that if the admin

HEADS DENY
LIQUOR BAN REPORT
RumOr That Discharge VIII Fol-
low Drinking Fails of Con-
firmatiOn.

Contrary TO denials and evasive
answers the rumor persists that the
factories of South Bend have gone on
the trail of John Barleycorn. In fact.
the rumor stage has been outgrOwn
and fiat statements have been made
by employees Of one corporation that
beginning Feb / the edict went forth
that the ban was on liquor. 1t was
stated by these men that bulletins
had been posted to the effect that if
any man in the employ of that cor
poratiOn were caught going into or
coming out of a saloon he would be
Immediately discharged. 1t was fur
ther stated that the word had been
passed around that similar bulletins
would find themselves in all of the
factories of the city.
A. II. Erskine, first vice president
and treasurer of the Studebaker cor
poration fatty denied that such a
move had been undertaken in the cor
poration he represented. 1t was from
Studebaker employees that the first re-
port emanated.
That no such move had been con-
templated at the Oliver chilled plow
works was the statement given out
there with the added comment that
such tactics would not be fair, TO
fire" a man just because he took
drink would work more hardship on
the mans family than on him.
AT the Stephenson underwear mills
neither denial nor affirmation would
be vouChed.
Ignorance of any such action as re-
ported was the gist of the answer
made at the South Bend wOolen mills.
b. A. Birdsell, president Of the
Birdsell Mfg. Co, said no action as
reported had or would be undertaken
at the wagon plant.

Of anything definite along the lines

steps were under way And it's the
only way the thing can be stamped
out" he said.
Rev. John 5. Burns of Trinity Pres

nently connected with the anti-liquor
forces, would not commit himself on

CHARITY WORKERS MEET
TO DISCUSS MEANS OF
RAISING EFFICIENCY

Representatives Of the various as
sociations Of the city met Tuesday
forenoon with Township Trustee
Klinger for the purpose Of evolving
some plan whereby the charity work
in the county may be carried on with
fewer losses. The meeting lasted
during the entire forenoon and It was
agreed among other things that a
meeting should be held each week so
that the work Of each organization
could be compared and checked.
The meeting came as the result Of
losses which the various charity or
ganizatiOns have sustained through
the operations. OF innumerable per-
sons who have made il habit to Sc
cure clothing and food from various
sources at the same time IL has
been found that many families have
secured good living by thus imposing
on the good will Of the charities The
plan Of the organizations To work to-
gether will preclude chances for this
sort of operations.

BUREAU REPORT SHOWS
NO DECREASE IN THE
NUMBER OF UNEMPLOYED

Figures gathered from the Indiana
free employment office show that
there is no diminishing Of the number
of unemployed men in the city. Dur
ing the month of January there We're
4T2 men who applied for jobs and of
these there were 90 who were given
places. There were 65 persons who
made application for men. on the
other hand there were 10 women who
applied for work and OF these there
were As who were given work. There
were 54 persons who wanted women
To work for them.
Asst. Supt. Hess finds through his
work with the unemployed that there
is a willingness to do whatever work
can be found To do but that there Is
a great scarcity of odd jobs TO be
found 1t is particularly noticeable
this winter he declares. that men of
business are cutting down expenses in
every way possible in order to tide
over the winter and are doing work
themselves that ordinarily would be
done by the Odd-jCr man
Apparently there are more men
who are remaining on the farms this
winter than has been the case during
anv perVious winter. The only rea-
son that there are more applications
for help than there are places filled is
the fact that expert help is wanted
whereas the majority of the men out
of employment are the unskilled.
As 10 the women il appears that an
elderly woman can very easily get
work as there are many applications
for such 10 aC. as companions and
housekeepers. Apparently the servant
question is not so burning as in years
past for the calls for servants are few
This is due somewhat. however. 10 the
fact that those girls who apply 20 the
free agency are generally foreign
born and are unacquainted with the
methods obtaining in homes which
boast OF servants.
