OFFICIALS QUARREL
HINDERS BUILDING
Goethals and Denman Fighting It
Out in Washington

Washington, July 1.-THE govern
ment's shipbuilding program is now
at a dead stop. In spite of all the
efforts Of President Wilson to COM
pose the differences between Major
Gen. Goethals, head of the Emergency
Fleet Corporation, and Chairman
Denman of the shipping board, the
offices of the two officials resumed
the character of hostile armed camps.
Gen. Goethals, following the receipt
of a letter despatched by Chairman
Denman this morning, called off tenn Sc
porarly the entire shipbuilding AID
communicating program which vas
to have started yesterday. At Goe-
thals' office it was said that the sus-
pension of the big program was oc-
casioned by direct request by Chair
man Denman for the postpOnement so
that the shipping board and the board
of directors of the fleet corporation
might have the opportunity to discuss
its details before it went into effect.
This Denman denied.
Work is Important.
While this does not hold up the
small amount Of construction under
way for the government, 1t halts the
signing of agreements for the two new
government fahricating plants with a
capa city of 100000 tons Of steel
shipping in eighteen months, the
communicating of 100000 tons on
the ways and contracts with private
yards for a large additional tonnage.
No one would say yesterday when
the meeting of the shipping board
was to be- held. At the office of Gen.
Goethals it was said no notice had
been received of the date Chairman
Denman said he would not call the
meeting until he obtained information
which he had asked of Gen. Goethals.
A positive denial that his letter
contained any request for a suspen-
sion of the program was made by
Denman. AS neither Denman nor
Goethals would make public the text
Of the letter it was not possible to
learn the truth of the situation.
Denman asserted that he merely
asked the general for information as
to details Of the program; informa-
ton which. he said, the general should
have been able to furnish within two
hours He said there was no sug-
gestion that the general should post
zone putting it in effect His atti-
tude, however, is that the general had
no authority to promulgate any pol
icy Of the shipping board
The situation last night in conse-
quence is that the two men have re-
sumed the fight for authority a ques-
ton which the president evidently
failed to settle by his recent execu-
tive order giving Goethals supreme
power in the actual construction work
and in the Communicating of ships on
the stocks.
President As Mediator
The feeling is growing that the two
men never will work in harmony to-
gether; that so long as their powers
are nearly equal they will clash in
cessantly and embarrass the shipping
program and that the construction of
a vast feet to assist In making up for

ugh a barricade of logs when dlsGGYered at a distance of 20 yards from the Ship. ship The en- emy opened fire at once, but the daring lieutenant forged ahead through a shower of bull lets, thrust a torpedo under the ram and blew 1t up.
 As he was backing out of danger a heavy bolt from the shattered gunboat struck his craft and sunk 1t without warning. The gallant little crew swan for their lives but only two, Lieutenant Gushing and one other, succeeded in reaching a Union cutter that was standing in wait outside of the harbor.
 In comparison with the gi- gantic naval operations of the present war, this single eX- ploit pales into insignificancc. But the results obtained made this daring deed one of trem- endous importance. Through the use of a single torpedo the blokade was broken anC from that time on to the close of the war the Union forces op- erated without serious inter ruption along the Carolina coast and co-operated around ] the Southern capital. It is just another instance of an illus. trious deed that contributes tC the glorious traditions of the American navy.

GERMAN DTSCORD

The mutiny in the German navy and the report of several outbreaks among the soldiers are not important except as in dications of general discord among the German people. Only a short time ago it would have been considered an inn possible thing that docile, well disciplined German soldiers or sailors would revolt. That they have displayed individual spirit enough to rebel is a sym tom of national ferment and that gradually the people have come to lose faith in the omni- potence of the kaiser and his military machine.
 As the days go by the lead CTS in Germany who look upon war and an opportunity for conquest as a blessing are now
