DELAWARE RIVER YARDS
RUSH SHIP BUILDING

PHILADELPHIA, June S.-Never
before in the history Of the United
States have the shipyaids al.ng the
Delaware river experienced such a.
rush Of orders indicative of the wave
of prosperity that is surging over the
entire country. The total number of
vessels now being bull, by these
yards or under contract number more
than 80, representing a cost of nearly
800 100000. All of the Delaware
river shipyards are working at fun
capacity and according to reports sew
eIal large corporations are preparing
to place orders for more vessels
The Cramp Shipyards at present are
fulfilling ten contracts. They are
constructing a ten thousand ton ra-
pacity tanker for the Ruasteca Pc

THE BRYAN RESIGNATION
q ECRETARY BRYAN'S
S resignation is the most
- imnnrtant governmental

q ECRETARY BRY A MS
S resignation is the most
important governmental
development in this country
since the war started. His ac-
ton will be hailed with JOY by
many and viewed with genuine
regret by a host of people who
have confidence in him and
would like to see him stand
steadfast by the president in
this crisis.
If the resignation was due to
the fact his arbitration views
were not acceptable to the
president in connection with
the present differences with
Germany the Bryan view of
the subject is not as sound as
the Wilson view.
The issue is: shall Germany
obey the established rules Of
the sea which require visit and
search before merchantmen
are destroyed? To that ques-
ton there can be but one pro-
per answer and there is no
need of arbitration to determ.
inc the answer. Civilization
requires the observance of that
rule. To set it aside would be
to revert toward barbarism and
for this country to consider the
subject as one for indefinite de-
bate would be a show of weak
ness.
President Wilson and his
cabinet members are right in
taking a firm attitude and in
requiring Germany to meet the
issue fairly and squarely. The
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-06-09

presentation of this subject to
Germany in this manner does
not necessarily mean war. We
also have an issue pending
with Great Britain and it may
serve as an offset to the Ger
man controversy to such an eX-
tent this country may refuse to
fight for or against either side
in the present war.
Even should Germany flatly
refuse to come to the position
desired it would not make war
inevitable. This country might
be satisfied to merely sever di-
plomatic relations with Ger
many until such time as that
country alters its position
which it will quite likely do by
the time this war is finished.
From a political standpoint
the immediate effect of the
Bryan resignation will be to
strengthen the president, be-
cause people will be disposed
to support him all the stronger
in view of the difficulties of his
position. The people also ad-
mire firmneSS in the executive
and this Wilson is showing.
What the future will bring
forth remains to be seen.

WILL THERE BE REPUDI.
ALTON?


F the European war con-
tinues until July 81, a per-
iod of one year from its
commencement, it is stated,
based upon expenditures to
date, that it will have cost the
participating nations the stag.
gering sum of S35,702, 100000,
or more than thirty-five times
the entire national debt of the
United States.
The British parliament has
just been asked for an appro-
priation of $5,682, 100000 for
the purpose of carrying on the
war for another year. The war
is said to be costing Great
Britain $10,500,O00 a day, and
most of the other nations in
volved about the same amount
excepting Germany, whose eX-
penses are close to double that
sum. Germany's total expenses
for the first year of the war
are put at $9,480,0O0,000, as
against S4,79O, 100000 for Eng
land, more than S6,000,000,-
600 each for France, Austria
Hungary and Russia and about
50, 100000 for Belgium.
These figures do not take in
t. account the loss of life,
which means just that much
removed from the field of pro-
duction and increase of world
wealth nor do they consider the
property destruction, which in
individual instances, such as
that of the Lusitania, will run
as high as $1,000,O00 or more.
Consideration OF these stu
pendous figures naturally
brings up the question as to
whether there will be repetiti-
on of history in the shape of
of European obli-
cations. If the war goes on for
another year both expendi-
lures and property losses will
have been doubled, possibly
increased in even greater pro-
portion. The victors will de-
mand war indemnities, which
the vanquished will be COM
PEELED to pay, and payment will
mean heavy taxation and pos
sible semi-pauperism extend
ing over a period of years.-At- t.

The exodus Of 80 many leading Eng

STRIKE BREAKERS
IN FREIGHT WAR
Three Hundred Work In
der Guard at United
Fruit Co.'S Pier.

Three hundred strike breakers were
brought into the freight handlers
strike yesterday. The men were put to
work unloading the cargo of the
steamer Bortoguero, which locked at
Pier 2, North River. The United Fruit
Company announced that $50 more men
would be at work tomorrow. dozen
patrolmen were on guard before the
dock and watched the fifty trucks which
waited for loads.
Meantime the striking handlers have
been taken into the Longshoremen's
Union. and T. V. O'Connor, its presi-
dent, will reach this city to-day to take
charge of the situation. The Fruit
Company's ship Calamares was forced
TO leave port with only what cargo she
had aboard when the strike was called,
and the Garlic is lying at Pier 10 still
filed with merchandise. The strikers
demand increased wages, contendlng
that theirs is the poorest paid work
along the waterfront.
Reports from Connecticut indicate
that in spite of the settlement OF many
grievances between employers and en-
Moves labor troubles continue. At
New Haven yesterday $50 strike break

and Torrington, and yesterday six hun
bred men left the Seymour Manufact-
uring Company, at Seymour, demanding
a y-fve-hour week and increased
pay. In Bristol several settlements
were made, and the National Marine
Lamp Company obtained a temporary
injunction restraining picketing. 1t is
thought that the strike at the New De-
parture Manufacturing Company, IN
Bristol, will be settled when the men
gather in a mass meeting to-day.

roads in Jersey City struck yesterday

an extra detail of police was necessary
to keep order while the employees were
being paid.
Italians were brought to the yards
from New York and given work, which
they took eagerly, believing they were
aiding the cause of Italy by fighting
what they regard as a pro-German
movement to prevent the shipment OF
supplies to the Allies.
