Market Marks Time
No Change In Prices

New York, June 29.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Waves of professional buying and
selling in relatively light volume i'm
parted an appearance of instability TO
today,s stock market, but net changes
were not considerable and movements
were quite devoid of significance be-
yond showing the usual Friday tendency
to settle accounts for the weekend.
In the present case there was adjust
ment also by those who proposed to abb
sent themselves over the Fourth of
July as well as the weekend.
Wall street has an idea that the Sc
curities market viii do little more than
mark time until after next week.
After midday prices stiffened on
covering operations and with few ex-
eeptions ruled thereafter narrowly
around the previous closing.
The copper, motor, rubber and sugar
issues were under pressure. Crucible
steel was a strong spot. The rails were
neglected and heavy in general, but
showed an improved tone later. The
Industrial list closed strong.

mailing back artillery ranges and the dis
position of the German defenders.
The British completed their victory
before it grew pitch dark. They ad-
vanced an average of 500 yards along
a front of two miles. Some 200 prison
ers and six machine guns were report
ed captured in complete headquarters
reports today.
Are Still Advancing.
At the time this is eabled the British
are still advancing They have gone
more than half way through Avion.
They have pushed their lines still
further southeast of the city. In all
this movement the Germans have not
tried to carry out single counter at
tack They have left the British to con
solidate every gain without stroke in
reprisal for the losses they suffered.
The terrific storm in which the Bri-
fish made their gains about Lens did
not stop for a moment the active aerial
reconnaissances of the British aviators
They literally played with the rain, the
clouds and the lightning, keeping the
sky swept clear of Boches, and again
proving the deciding factor in the bat
tie.
One mere boy in a British battle
plane amused the Tommies awaiting the
moment of the attack and thrilled even
these hardened fighters with dives,
spins, double loops and all sorts of
aerial aerobatics over the fighting lines.
Sometimes the wheels of his machine
almost touched the ground as he dipped
and turned and twisted. His antics
proved like tonic to the troops, stimu
lating them to the deeds of valor with
which they later swept the Germans out
OF their place in front.

Yard With Capacity for Ten
Ships AT a Time Being
Prepared
MOUNTAIN OF TIMBER
is COMING FROM SOUTH
Army Of 1000 WOrkmen To
Be Employed First Ships
IN November
By George Martin

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Somewhere in New Jersey, June 20.
Rising from the barren sand lots of
New Jersey here today is Uncle Sam Is
first wooden shipbuilding plant.
From this place where an army Of
labor hammers, digs and builds careful
ly, efficiently and speedily, will emerge
the first of America IS fleet of thou
sand 5000 ton wooden ships. Their job
win be to carry food to allied Europe.
despite the kairer's submarines.
From lumber mills somewhere in the
south a mountain of dressed and meas
ured timber is rolling northward on
flatcars to this spot.
A great yard for its reception is
being rushed to completion and will
be ready when the supply arrives few
days hence.
As fast as government engineers, con-
struction experts of various kinds and
a battalion Of laborers can do il, those
fifty six flat, gray faced acres are be-
ing transformed into a miniature city
whose population 8 only task will be
to turn out ships.
Runs Day and Night
A comprehensive system of flood
lights is being installed. The plant will
run twenty four hours a day.
The keels of the first two wooden
ships win be laid early in July if all
! goes well. These twin submarine break
ers should slide off the ways, ready for
war service, by mid-November.
Kces for two more vessels will be
laid every two weeks after the first
two, until the unit of ten for fhis plant
is in full course of construction.
There is no delay, no pickering, nor
stopping to argue here. Tho job is deS
tailed. Every man knows his own work.
Every man is at is. They are making
war on this little plot of the American
" 'front.' as il they meant it,.
Scrutiny Of the ground plan and talk
with the constructors today revealed
the stupendous preparation necessary
before one plank of ships timber can
be laid upon another.
In cubby hole offices not far away
shrewd brains are inventing new dcvi-
ces to speed up wooden shipbuliding.
1t has never been done on a largo scale.
Old ideas are being worked over. New
ones are adopted.
Everything up to Date
Piing up on the side lines is mater
ial for complete electric nght pant.
A small railroad system is being as
scmbled and built
A bi machine shop, scientifically
arranged lumber yard, motor roads IN
and out, power house, an experimental
building, fire protection water sys-
tenn and even a restaurant and lunch
room for the two thousand inhabitants
are lang form.
Imagine the task of rebuilding city
of 1000. Multiply tnat effort to abb
sorb The added complications OF a shiP-
yards machinery.
Then you will have some notion OF
what is going on here just for the con
struction of ten Of thousand ships.
The plant is guarded. A governments
aoent oversees every move. He bars or
admits every conner. man with
camera dare not tarry
No one has time to talk. Everybody .
busy. -
Only one man could command any OF
the shipmen $ time. That man IS tne
kaiser. They will be glad to have MN

Iseni You q sworn copy OF my IN
Eterview with the two ladies, Mrs..
Forbes and Mrs. Weaver, who started
this train of thought, and my mes.
sage to the legislature. So
In their essence, the efforts OF
these ladies, in my opinion, are an at
tempt to break down the authority of
the commissioners of education with.
out proper conference or consultation.
We have the College of Hawaii pre-
sumabiy, IN the main, an agricultural
college, for which the federal govern
ment appropriates $50, 10000 per year,
and the college seeks an additional
SIS 900. 90 for extension work.
IL has Is professors and seven as
sistafits In the year 1915, 1t gradu-
of two, and expects to graduate this
year Q9I7l q class Of two or three, or
a total Of eight in three years. / am
not informed as TO previous graduates,
but they could not average to equal
those Of the past three years. A ma
EJority of the graduates are Orie1tals.
In justice to the college, permit me
to state, since fits establishment 1t has
had 80 students who started the full
course in the college, but after an
average attendance OF one year and
five months, Withdrew and attended
the foremost colleges IN the. United
States.
Our lack here Is in our higher in
stitutions, and they are handicapped
in their progress and stature by the
desire of students to leave home
for wider experience and observation
and the advantage Ola: distinguished
educational alma mater.
II you could place this college. by
your advice. m a more practical sphere
OF work. think q visit from you would
not only be acceptable but most
gratefully received. ..:=.' . IS
Our Normal school would be pleased
ITO have your advice, and undoubtedly
