MAY SELECT SUB BASE ON
 PUGET SOUND

SEATTLE. Nov. 14.-Advlces that the United States commission on navy yards and stations shortly Twill visit Puget Sound to select sites for submarine and naval bases here were received today by District ! Attorney Clay Allen in a letter from the Attorney-Gencraps office at Washington, D. C., says the Times. Whether the commission, of which Rear Admiral J. w. Helm is senior member, has definitely determined to place the proposed aviation and submarine stations on Puget Sound, as against other localities in the fight to obtain them was not stated.
 It was made apparent however that if such is not the case. the board proposes to give the claims Of Puget Sound the most thorough and exhaustive consideration. The letter received by District Attorney Allen said that the commission would come to Seattle soon and requested him to give the board his services in matters involving ripar- ian rights. claims of ownership and other questions arising from its wis it in this connection.
 To Tender Services
 The Seattle Chamber of Commerce some time ago authorized President Thomas Burke to appoint a special committee to tender it's services to the the federal board and furnish such information concerning avail. able sites in this Territory for the proposed stations as the commission should desire,
 The committee is composed of Judge Burke, chairman; former Unit ed States Senator s. II. Piles, J s. Brace. Josiah Collins. J. D. Bowman. R. A. Ballinger A. w. Leonard and C. E. Horton The committee will wait upon the commission on it's ar rival.
 After leaving Puget Sound, it is understood, the commission will go to Portland, San Francisco and San Diego. The commission was appoint ed by President Wilson under au- thority of the naval appropriation act of August 29, 1916, and was creat- ed to consider the needs of the navy yards on the Pacific coast.
 Puget Sounds claims for location here of the proposed stations have been brought to the attention of the navy department, but no definite sites have been announced as avail able for the purpose.

FIELD HEADQUARTERS, PUNI. TIVE EXPEDITION. Mexico, Nov 2O.-Preparatlon for living in the warmth and comfort during the winter months are in full swing in all the camps of the punitive cxpe- dition, from the border to El Valle.
 The tented cities of the summer months are disappearing and in their stead are rising little villages of mud huts Already the offices of division headluarters have been transferred from big tents to long row of adobe dwellings. Each office boasts a fireplace. By the first of December hardly a tent will be standing in any of the camps of General Pershing's command.
 Whole regiments are already liy- ing in mud houses. For weeks tho enlisted men in all branches of the service have been making adobe brick and erecting little huts. Com fortable one-room residences are being built by the officers. Crude flreplaces are part of every dwell ing. Cold winter nights will hold no terrors when the homes are fin- ished.

Adobe Gath Houses Built


 Bathing has been done in the open air. under improvised showers, with wooden barrels as overhead tanks Now adobe bathhouses are being built, with big grates where huge tubs of water can be heated.
 Campfires are beginning to gleam for the first time since last spring when the troops crossed the border. The nightly gathering of officers around the fires in front of regi. mental headquarters has begun once more; while huge bonfires attract troopers and infantrymen in differ ent portions of the camp
 Winter clothing has not yet been issued to the troops, except over coats However. each newly arriv- ing truck train brings the heavy un- derwear and outer garments worn by American soldiers in cold wealth CT. In short time the 10000 men of General Pershing's column will be completely fitted out for the winter months.
 Big shipments of stoves are eX- pected soon. so there will, be no lack of warmth in the houses occu- pied by men and officers.
 The camp is situated at an eleva- ton Of about 5000 feet. and the El Vale encampment is nearly 1000 feet higher. No snow has fallen yet. but the nights are becoming very cold The days are nearly a!- ways warm
 A number of the regiments in Mexico. infantry and cavalry alike, are spending their first winter in the field in many years Many off, cers are watching closely to see how their men endure the rigors Of this new experience.
 In most cases, Mexican workmen are being employed by the off cers to build their dwellings, Houses for the enlisted men have been con structed almost entirely by them selves. Material such as roof tim. bers, corrugated sheets and tar pa per for roofs an1 glass for windows is purchased at the Quartermaster's depot here.
 No provision has been made yet for shelterlng the thousands of hors- es and mulec in service here, but it ]. Is reported that plans for this are In the making.
 Unlike most of his officers, Gen eral Pershing prefers tent as a lwening place, whether it be suui- ner or winter He has said there win be bungalow" built for him his winter.

The roll is composed of the names of
the children whose department and

put forth a greater effort and informs
the parents what their children are
doing.
