ADDITIONAL VESSELS FOR
 TRADE
Principal Subject Before Yesterdays Meeting of President Wilson's Cab inet.

Washington, April 1S,-Means of quickly putting additional vessels into the transatlantic trade and thus full filling the prophecy of Premier David Lloyd George of Great Britain that more ships meant victory for the en- tente allies. was the principal sub iect before today's meetinf of Presi- dent Wilson's cabinet.
 As a result a bill will be introduced in both houses of congress early next week, probably Monday. substantially increasing the S5o,09o.000 appropria- ton now available for the shipping board and giving the board additional authority, so that the building of wooden ships and the acquisition of other vessels may be expedited.
 Legislation also probably will be proposed by the administration giving the shipping board power formally to take over the German merchantmen in American ports. While it Is conceded that the president would have the right to take this step, it is under stood that a specific act of congress will be preferred.
 At the request of Secretary McAdoo, the shipping board has detailed ex- perts to thoroughly examine all of the German merchant ships with the view to their immediate repair, so that they can be utilized promptly.
