NECESSITY OF
SHIP BUILDING

Tho allied forces fighting the cen
trail powers of Europe today are
moro dependent upon shirs than
any other Gactor which America will
be able to contribute.
The statement is presented to us
bv 'hc brst Of authority. 1t does not
overlook the fact that the man
power the soldiers fighting ia
the force that will win. 1t simply
means this: That neither the man
power America is able to furnish,
the 'oodstuffs that will sustain both
cur fighting forces and those of the
allied countries, and the arms, am
munition and equipment needsd to
make this man power effective, will
be able to reach Europe unless there
arc more ships.
Recognizing this fact, our people
in Portland are concentrating their
energies to build every possible ship.
In their effort they have been fire.
quently discouraged. The Shippin
Board itself has been slow in letting
contracts and the companies that
have received contracts have not
experienced the freedom OF action
that warranted the fastest construc-
tion. Despite all this, however, and
despite the fact that the labor or
ganizations precipitated a strike de- i
manding recognition Of their Unions
at most critical time, the patriot
ic people of Portland nre stu nxht- /,
ing and strugglin to build ships.
Appeals are coming from the ma
tional officials for the highest con-
centration Of strength and energy at /
all eaboard points for the construc-
ton Of ships. Contracts are being
let and more are certain to come.
# the war is to continue two years
onger, which seems inevitable, the
construction Of ships WELL have to
be undertaken in a much larger way
han at present /
We have under contract in the
State of Oregon today about $50, ,00o.-
700 worth of wood shirs, mostly for
.ho United States Government and
part for the French government, l
md about s46,000, 900 worth of steel
hips. The men to build these are
'eing assembled as rapidly as possi- (
lie. The companies that produce the
aw material are, pursuant to the {
Instructions of the federal govern i
nont, bending their first and su- |
IRENE energies 10 the problem Of
Meeting the nationaH requirement. 1
We have in the city of Portland !
bout $4,000 men directly and in
irectly employed in the building Of ,
hips. l would not be surprised to I
ee at lleast 10000 more employed /
ere by the early part of next year J
that same industry. If the work S
ttains this magnitude skilled men t
ow employed in less vital lines
'il have to be drawn to the ship
uilding work. The wages are good, =
he hours are short, the work being q,
n an S-hour day, and the working 4
cnditions are favorable. We believe 9
hat the nation will spare the men !,
nd use the men in the most vital Y
Tork, and, as the shipbuildiBg prob E
Am grows in magnitude and its re- .
uirements multiply, we are conf .
ent that all OF the men that are "
eeded for the building of these Wit u
transportation facilities will be y
rovided :,

MORBID AND NERVOUS.
Is the Way Scott Nearing Describes the
u S. Authorities.

New York, Sept. l4.-Prof Scott Near
ing, whose home at Toledo was raided
Wednesday night by federal agents who
seized papers and documents found there,
issued statement here last night in
which he declared anything he ever had
said or written on the subject of the
war is open to inspection at any time.
When | had anything to say" he
asserted, 81 have always said it in the
open. If any proof of the morbid, nery-
Gus sensitiveness of the authorities were
needed it is supplied by such an invasion
of the premises of a private citizen by
the agents of the government When the
reaction against such wanton acts comes
it will be swift and sure"
Prof Nearing said he had written the
department of justice asking that his pa
pers be disarranged as little as possible
because he had spent years in collecting
the data on various economic and So
cialogical problems and getting it into
useful shape.

This When the Whole Of the
First Draft Is Assem-
bled in Camps

Washington, Sept. l5.--The armed
forces of the United States of America
on September numbered l,074, l46 men.
These were all volunteers. OF them 49,.
ssl are in the army and 254,265 are in
the navy. These figures were submitted
TO the House yesterday by the commit
tee on public information in response to
a request by Chairman Dent of the House
military committee who desires to pub
fish them in the Congressional Record.
Mr.. Dent believes that the country does
not generally understand the strength of
its forces. The statistics submitted take
no account of the draft The first draft,
which will all be in its camps this month,
will total 6s700o Those, added to the
force summed up above, will give to-
tai of 1871 ,046 Nearly $4,000 100000,
including pending estimates, has been
put aside for the United States navy in
about year, said Secretary Daniels yes
terday in an address TO the la grad
uating ensigns of the naval reserve at
Annapolis. According to the secretary
there are three times as many ships in
commission to-day as there were six
months ago, but the dispatches do not
put him on record as to the real value
these ships add to the fighting power of
the navy. "Ships and more ships said
Mr.. Daniels. from enlarged and ever
charging shipyards are coming to afford
a place on naval craft to the thousands
