SIIIPBUTIDERS TO RUSH
WORK ON U. s. WARSH1PS

Construction Of navy craft by the
Newport News Shipbuihing and Dry
dock company, the Fore River Ship
building company and the Electric:
Boat company will be spseded up to the
limit of the plants. Work on two bat
tleships at the plant of the Newport
News company, at Secretary Daniels
suggestion, already is proceeding nnd,'r
double crews, and the offers of the,
other two companies to take similar,
steps met with the secretary's hearty
approval.
At the Newport News plant it is
estimated that the battleship Missis-
sippi, recently launched, can be com
pleted by midsummer instead of Janu-
ary l, 1913, as called for in the con-
tract. The keel of one of the four
new battleships recently contracted for
will be laid on the slip vacated by the
Mississippi instead Of merchant YES
sci, as had been intended.
Representatives of the Fore River
and Electric Boat companies called OIL
Mr.. Daniels, offering to rush work on
destroyers and submarines for which
they have contracts, setting aside other
private work to that end They were
told to go ahead at full speed. The
plan is to get the vessels launched as
soon as possible, freeing stocks for the
new set of destroyers and submarines
to be authorized in the pending navy
bill.

STATE BONDING
ACT GOES into
EFFECT TODAY

Washington, D. c., Nov. 6.-Nortf
Dakota's law Of 1915 permitting the
state insurance commissioner to fur
nish official bonds for county, city
and other officers in competition with
private surety bonding concerns to
day was put into effect by the su
preme court, which dismissed because
of lack of jurisdiction an appeal OF
the Dakota Trust company OF Fargo
attacking it's validity.
While the bonding act was passed
in 1915, it never has become effective.
Its constitutionality was Immediately
attacked by the Dakota Trust Co.,
which claimed the state had no con-
stitutional right to compete with pri-
vate corporations for business OF this
nature. The supreme court OF the
state ruled that tn eact was not un-
constitutional, and the Dakota Trust
Co., through it's attorney, Aubrey
Lawrence of Fargo, then appealed to
the supreme court Of the United
States, which now disclaims jurisdic'
ton.

Ambassador Gerard to Tell OF
Atrocities in Pamphlet
Issued Soon.
CAPTURED RUSSIANS
KILLED LIKE DOGS

Washington, Nov. 6.-The fact tina
German soldiers, themselves, appealed
to Ambassador Gerard as "the repre-
sentative Of a Christian state" to pro
test against atrocities and b%utcheries
in which their commanders forced
them to participate, will be disclosed

by the committee on public informa'

One German soldier, conscience
stricken with the massacre Of Russian
prisoners, implored the American am
bassadOr to protest, and signed his
letter "a German soldier and Chris
tian."
Another who, through the ambassa'
dor, addressed his appeal to the Amer.
lean government, describes in detail
how Englishmen who had surrend'
cred, were shot down in small groups.
This was the protest of a German
soldier, an eye witness OF the slaugh-
ter of Russian soldiers in the Masu-
rian lakes and sWamps:
ut was frightful, heart rending, as
these masses of human beings were
driven to destruction. Above the ter
rible thunder Of the m could be
heard the heart rending cries OF the
Russians: oh Prussians! On Prus-
SLAMS! Oh Prussians! But there was
no mercy. Our captain had ordered
the whole lot must die. Five men and
one officer on our side went mad from
those heart rending cries. But most
Of my comrades and the officers jOked
as the unarmed and helpless Russians
shrieked for mercy, while they were
being suifocated in the swamps and
shot down. The order a Close up
