Adjutant7 General John G. Bond, who
was I'M the city Saturday comforting

that arrangements have been made
for the annual encampment this year

MARINE BILL
{ FIRST OFFICIAL ANNOUNCE
MENT MADE REGARDING THE
| MEASURE.
To BRING RELIEF
A Merchant Marine Is Needed by
America i'm Order that Country
May Better Promote Conn
merce of the Sea.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13--The
first official announcement of the
administration merchant marine
bill was made by Secretary McAdoo
today in an exclusive interview with
the United Press, in which he de-
tailed the plans for building nav
al reserve fleet to be operated
through a corporation in which the
government would be the chief or
sole stockholder. The interview
came on the eve of the secretary S
departure on his western trip dur
ing which he will speak in behalf OF
the measure. He summed up the
five chief factors as follows:
First, The necessity for an aux
iliary fleet to the maya measure
of preparedness in keeping with the
governments plan of rehabilitation
of the navy's defensive.
Second, The necessity for imme-
diate relief for American commerce
so that American shippers and pro-
ducers may not be dependent upon
foreign flags and excrbitant rates
of an unregulatory merchant ma
rine.
Third. The hope that private capi-
tai may enter into vigorous compe-
tition with foreign trade.
Fourth, The government is the
only agency of sufficient strength
and resources to give the quick as
sistance that is necessary.
Fifth. Delay means not only re-
lection of fun possibilities for Ameri-
