MORE MEMBERS

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 49,.
Early enlargement of it's men,
bership because of the increasing
variety and volume Of the work
was recommended by the inter-
state commerce commission in its
report to congress today.
At the same time express stat
utory power was asked to act
through subdivisions designated
by the commission to perform
its duties with regard to specific
subjects or features of its work,
subject to retension by the COM
mission of it's control of all du-
ties and powers.
The recommendation for an
largement of the membership is
dependent on the authority to act
through subdivisions.
Appropriate and adequate leg
islation on the subject of control
over railway capitalization is al
so urged.
For the purpose of uniformity
and to prevent injustice, one
period of three years is recon-
mended for the beginning of all
actions relating to transportation

Betrays Secrets.

Because a private company has
been in the habit of selling its
torpedoes to foreign nations, and
thereby disposing of the secrets
of manufacture worked out by
navy experts, the department
found il necessary to bring suit,
reports the secretary. Judge
Cox OF the circuit court OF ap-
peals, decided adversely to the
company, and his decision is
quoted in part by Secretary DAN
iels, as follows:
This case illustrates the im-
portance of the United States
having a mandatory of its own
for the manufacture of torpedoes
and other implements of war.
which are improved and changed
from time to time by the addi-
tion of ingenious mechanism,
which should clearly be kept sec
ret unless our enemies are to
profit equally with ourselves la
every Improvement which the in
genuity of our army and navy
officers may suggest"
The secretary urges this phase
of the question as one important
reason why the government
should do its own manufacturing.

Coast Traffic Gains
An enormous increase in traffic
from the Atlantic to the Pacific
since the opening of the Panama
canal is shown in the report.
There are in this service 40 ships
with capacity of over 100000
tons.
The total tonnage moving by
water from the Atlantic to the
Pacific coast and to the Hawaiian
Islands for the year 1911 was
397,974 tons; for 1912, 451,5S2
tons; for 1918, 434,115 tons;
while for the month of September
the first full month after the
opening of the Panamana Canal,
the tonnage from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast ports of the
United States was 1915 tons, or
more than twice as much as the
average monthly tonnage for the
preceding year. sa 3
The tonnage handled by the
water lines was not confined to
traffic originating along the At
lantisc coast but included a great
deal originating in the interior.

Secretary Daniels asserts
that IL an armor plate plant

recommended by Secretary
Herbert, 1.-THE government
would have saved enough
money on armor plate to own
plant as large as that
owned by all three of the
private companies, and In
the meantime to have sup
piled the armOr plate for its
own ships at less price
than IL has been compelled
to pay"

large portion of its needs by the

money thereby" says the re

The former claim agent was for

before noon today, and his for

no difference, as Gillies' every eff

proved futile.
A second charge, one of grant
larceny, in which Gillies will be
accused of the theft of $1,000,
will be filed tomorrow, the attor-

Manufacture by the govern
inent itself of powder, armor
plate, torped0es, war vessels
and munitions of war. I'm or
der to prevent the govern
inent from being exploited
OF enormous amounts In pri-
vate profit by the steel trust
and the armor ring, Is the
outstanding recommendation
I'm the report of Secretary OF
the Navy Josephus Daniels
made to the president today.
That the greatly increased
building program recommended
for the next five years should lie
largely carried out by the dep TT
ment, is Daniels contention.
Experience has demorstrat-
ed" he says, that it has been
sound public policy for the gov
eminent to be able to manufa =
ture smokeless powder. A few
years ago the government paid so
cents pound to the private COM
pany from which it purchased its
supply" (The Du Pont powder
trust.) -"
Would Save Millions.
"At the first session of the
63rd congress | recommended an
Appropriation to add to the plant
at the naval proving ground, the
appropriation to be large enough
to enable the navy to manufac-
ture all the powder for its ordi-
nary needs. This year the prod
uct was nearly 100000 pounds.
Congress made the appropriation
and the navy will soon be manu-
featuring in its own plant at H.
dian Head all the powder it needs
at cost of 25 cents per pound
instead of the SO cents 1t had
been paying to private manufac-
5 turers.
THE cost of manufacturing in
our own plant has steadily dc.
creased. III the 3,9S4,97S pounds
manufactured had been purchased
It would have cost, at SO cents
per pound, $2,iI2,03S.34. In
asmuch as the actual cost to the
navy was 25 cents, the cost was
$99,244.50, or $1,115,793.S4 less
than the price charged by the pri-
vate manufacturers. This saw
ing is for one year only"
Private Profit Graft.
The secretary renews his rec
ommendation for government
armor plate factory-another Of
fort in the quarter century fight
to eliminate the private profit
graft from armor contracts.
1t has ben demonstrated be
yond controversy, says Mr.. Dan
iels, that the prices charged
by the armor plate plants have
no reference to competition and
little reference to the cost of pro
duction. 1t is estimated that
IL our government should estab-
fish plant with the capacity OF
10000 tons, armor plate could
be manufactured at $262.79 per
ton, or factory with 10000
tons capacity at $3.50 per ton.
THE price charged the gov
eminent for the last armor plate
purchased was S425 per ton, and
