Despite the recent expansion Of
the Union Iron Works. it has been
found impossible to complete every
vessel launched on the Alameda side
Of the bay. OF the hulls built in the
Alameda plant, numbering over doz-
en-, but one has been finished here.
There are so many contracts on hand
for construction and repair work and
the list Of vessels constantly waiting
is too large to allow any Of the needed
space to be taken up, so all of the
hulls launched in the Alameda plant
in the future will he toNed directly
to San Francisco, where they will be
finished.

satisfactorily the past year, by the

mands, but the deficit was promptly
met by the Kings Daughters. Every
citizen should be a contributor to this
good cause and help in taking care of
our own poor and needy.
A paid secretary will have charge
Of this work with the assistance of /.
a splendid committee of ladies from

THE FAITH OF AMERICA.

oermany's latest pronunciamento which foretel1s submarine attacks off Che Atlantic Coast, reaching from Canada to Cuba, is seemingly taken with grain of salt by the American people. There is no excitement what soever over the threat. The people In the coast cities are not worrying even little bit. There Is no rush to build concrete walls for protection or other devices to ward off the inn pending blow. In truth, the Imperial German Governments threat has left not one scared American in its wake. American people feel that the Im- oerial German Government has been bragging and boasting so long that 1t has overrated it's physical strength 1t may be that the American people place too much faith in their navy and feel that no horde of Huns can get by the cordon of patrol boats hover Ing always along the shore Whatever the cause of this great confidence on the part of the Amer ican people, this discounting of a German threat to Lombard cities on The American coast, this one cannot be among the reasons for feeling se- cure: The American people cannot hope that the Imperial German Gov srnment would spare the lives of lit- tle children, or fond mothers, or aged ,athers, or any other species of inno- cent non-combatants. The past rec Prds show that such prey is just what fhe Germans are looking for. Every lime baby is wantonly killed soma pne gets an Iron Cross
