Is Not Sure
War Department Finds
Building of Is Canton
ments No Small Task.

Washington. June 1S.-Simultaneous
construction of Ii war army canton
ments, each to house 40, 900 troops, ha $
proved such an enormous task that
OFFICIALS do not now believe it can be
completed In time to permit mobiliza
tion of the first full quota of 900, 900
by September I.
whether any of the men selected un-
der the draft will be called out until
the government iS ready to begin
training OF the entire first quota has
not been revealed. 1t is believed, how
ever, that even If all the cantonmcnts
are not complete by the beginning OF
September, such units as can be ac-
commodated may be summoned
Work on the cantOnmcnts has been
surrounded with many unexpected diff
ficulties. There have been conflicting
opinions as to types of buildings, the
present plan for two story COMPANY
buildings to house together the lSt
men of each inflntry company having
met with objection from the medical
section of the defense advisory coun
Gil on the ground that not enough al,
space would be allowed.
Whatever may be the final decision
the preliminary work will be. the same
and army orders today show additional
officers assigned to the construction
work.

l,745,o0o TONS
SHIPPING SUNK

Washington. June 1S.-The German
submarine toll of British merchant :
men since February 1. as shown by
figures compiled here today. is 1922
vessels Of more than 1900 tons and 135
of less than 1000. British steam fish
ing vessels sunk in that period num-
bered 7S.
The British figures do not give the
tonnage of vessels sunk but officials
here say 5000 tons probably would be
fair average for vessels OF more than
1900 tons destroyed. Computing the
total at that average and putting the
average of the smaller ships at 1000
tons. the total loss during slightly less
than four months warfare would reach
1,745,000 tons. or about $50, 900 tons less
than the entire worlds shipping out
put during 1916.
