EHene and Molly, were not so inter-

In her outside interest Eliene has
forgotten her fears of not loving the
twins as much as she would her own
child.
Dick eats and thinks and talks the

course, has a personal as well as al
trUistic interest in the outcome of the

Mr.. Selwin about me, for yesterday a

CRISFIELD POSTMASTER
IS FULLY ExONERATED
Inspector Roper Declares Charges
Against Maryland Official to
Be Unfounded.

Charges lodged with the Post Office
Department against Arthur B. Coch-
.-an-, postmaster at Crisfield. Md, have
been found to be wholly without foun-
dation, according to a statement by
First Assistant Postmaster General
Roper The statement says tnat in
view Of the unusual publicity given to
the charges against Postmaster Coch-
rane, it has been considered only fair
that equal publicity be given to the
announcement that the post Office in
spector detailed to investigate the
charges has reported them to be un-
founded.
1t was asserted in the charges re-
ferred to that the Crisfield postmaster
had used his official position to compel
a contractor to a11ow him a commits
sion of 5 per cent on the contract for
a federal building at that place, and,
further. that the postmaster used the
post Office as q place for the trans
action of his personal business.
The report of the post Office in
spector. Mr.. Roper states, declares
these charges. Mr.. Roper's statement
adds that there has been no public
criticism of Postmaster Cochrane's ac-
|tions; that his reputation and standing
have not suffered in the least by rea-
son of the charges. and that he gives
the Crisfeld post office his personal
attention, contrary to statements con-
tained In the charges filed against him.

JUSTIFIEs WILSON'S STAND
ON SHIP PURCHASE BILL
British Paper Declares United States
Merchant Marine Might Prove
Valuable to England.

LONDON, February 3.-Raids by Ger
man submarines on British commerce
might make a United States merchant
marine valuable to Great Britain as
means of supplying food. in the opin-
ion Of the Daily News. which prints al
editorial this morning justifying Presi-
dent Wilson's attitude on the ship pur-
chase bill. now before Congress.
The paper says this unprecedented
development of state socialism" is the
only means whereby the United states
can recover it's place in the world OF
shipping. The editorial sets forth that
in the present war the submarine has
become a serious menace to England's 8
food supply. and in any future war
will dominate her position, unless IN
the meantime science should discover
some effective means of defense.
Should it then threaten our shipping
with destruction and ourselves with
starvation" says the Daily News, 'it
will not be an unimportant fact that
q great neutral country, possessing
mercantile marine of ITS own. can send
its ships into our ports unmolested
and unafraid."

GREECE AND ITALY SEEK
TO BUY INTERNED SHIPS
Rumor That Governments Are Ne
gotiating for German and Austrian
Vessels in Mediterranean.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
LONDON, January 21.-Rumors that
both Greece and Italy are endeavoring
to purchase Austrian and German COM
mercial ships interned in the Mediter-
ranean have caused much discussion in
shipping circles.
Italy has shown a decided improve
ment in her merchant marine within
the last few years and English ship
owners are not surprised at hearing
that Italian shipping companies are
endeavoring to acquire more bottoms
while the prices of ships are SO low
and freight rates SO high.
Rival of England.
In many ways Italy has become a
rival of England on the sea. The 1tal-
ian shipping laws are more liberal than
those of England. Consequently the
Italian lines are able to operate at less
expense than English companies. The
wages paid to crews are lower in Italy
than in England. and regulations far
less exacting.
For many years Italian companies
have been buying old steamers in Eng
land and operating them in the Med
iterranean trade with great success.
There are fewer labor troubles among
Italian seamen than among English
men and the Italian steamers have be-
come such sharp competitors of Eng
'lish tramps that the increase of the
Italian merchant marine is watched in
England with some apprehension.

PLUCKING BOARD GONE;
HOPE FOR ITS VICTIMS
Hobson Shell Amendment Likely to
Be Observation-Disclosures
Cash Halved.

An intermisson of two days in the
naval appropriation bill debate Will
postpone the big fight on the building
program for the navy until Friday.
This is Calendar Wednesday, and
given over to the discussion of ordinary
bills before the House. and tomorrow
is set aside for the fight on the Presi-
dents veto of the immigration bill.
1t is expected that when the naval
bill is taken up again Friday the House
will reconsider the Hobson amendment
limiting the purchase of twelve-inch
and fourteen-inch shells to those which
will penetrate armor at $4,000 yards.
Representative Padgett, chairman of
the naval affairs committee, has receiv-
ed a letter from the Secretary of the
Navy which declares that the Hobson
limitation will be fatal to the navy in
its preparations for complete efficiency.
The House in committee of the whole
has adopted the Hobson amendment,
but another vote will be taken on it,
probably Friday.
1t was after o'clock last night when
the House finished the four-hour debate
on the much discussed ''plucking board"
of the navy. and when the sections for
abolishing that board were completely
amended they were considera bly,
changed from the original legislation

Plucking Board Gone.

The legislation now provides that the
board will not be called into existence
again, and that the President may ap-
point to active service officers who
have been retired by it. However. the
amendment of Representative Mann,
which was adopted, wiped out of the
bill the provision that the President
could reappoInt these officers merely on
the approval of the Senate or House
committee on naval affairs.
Representative Howard's amendment,
which would provide for the appoint
ment to the active list of the Marine
Corps Lieut.. Col. G. NJ. Perkins, was
adopted. This amendment would also
result in the restoration of Capt. Frank
Evans. U. S. N, If either of the naval
committees approve of his claims.
During the debate on the plucking
board Representative Roberts of Mas

of Pennsylvania opposed the special
legislation. Representative Butler said
he had come to the conclusion that the
plucking board has been responsible
for the high efficiency of the commits
stoned personnel of the navy.
