Washington, Aug. s.-Tremendous
increase in assistance given by this
government to the enemies of Austria

war on the United tSates by the dual
monarchy.
Admitting such action is believed in
evitable eventually, the state depart

This dissipated all doubts in italian

SHIPPING SITUATION IS
 SERIOUS IN ENGLAND

LIVERPOOL, March 29.-The an nual report of the Liverpool Steam ship Owners Association. which in cludes practically all the important shipowners in England emphasizes the seriousness of the shipping situation and declares equarely that all the measures thus far taken up by the government are insufficient. The re- port insists that state management of shipping has failed and must fail. and expresses the opinion that only the most radical curtailment of imports and a similar radical limitation of the amount of tonnage used for mili- tary purposes can save the nation from the most serious shortage of food and vital raw materials.
 Commenting on the appointment of a Shipping Minister as member of the Lloyd George cabinet the re- rort says: "The association welcomes the appointment of Minister charg- ed with the duty of seeing that the

ELECTION
 PRESENT COUNCIL
Continued from Page One)

Charles R. Crawford stated that he
 would serve another term if the peo-
 pie so desired. The present Council
 had done it's best to give the town
 an efficient and economical admins tration. and if their efforts had met the approval of the voters he was will
 ing to serve once more.
 E. A. Erickson had announced some time ago that he would not be a can Gidate again, as he expected to leave town. He has. however, consented to
 sire it. He will not leave here before late summer. if he does so then, and
 so long as he remains here is willing to give his services to the city. A. J. Dimond was suggested as a
 candidate to succeed c. M. Day by number of the citizens and by mem- bers of the council as we'll. It is stated that MT. Day will not return to Valdez at the end of the session of the legislature as he has something in view at Juneau. MT. DimOnd is man who holds the esteem of everybody, and will be a great acquisition to the council.
 The sentiment of a number of the citizens of Valdez have been express ed favorably to the present council. Attorney John Lyons said he believ- ed the city government for the past year had been conducted in man. lper which had earned the approval of all. He believed it would be mistake to make a change now. H. T. Whitley also endorsed the present council. stating that he be- lieved the town affairs had been ad-
 ministered in a manner satisfactory to all, and that no better course could be adopted than to return the old
 members to office for another term. Meyer Blum stated that he believ-
 ed the best interests of the town
 could be served by the return of the
 present Council to office for another
 term. He felt confident they could
 not be bettered.
 J. c. Martin of the Valdez Dock
 Co. was also strongly in favor of the
 reelection of the present members o1
 the council He believed their ad-
 ministration had been satisfactory
 enc and that if the voters could unite
 on this one ticket the cause of har- mony in town would be furthered. The present council had given a good
 administration and nothing could be gained by a multiplicity of candidates and rabid campaign for this one or lthat one.
 Practically every one approached echoed the same sentiment, that the present Council is good enough and
 their reelection would be to the best advantage of the town.
 A nominating petition is being cir culated this afternoon and will be presented to the City Clerk this even ing.
 For member of the School Board,
 Mrs. c. A. Winans, whose term ex- pires next month. has also given her consent to having her name placed on the ballot. Mrs. Winans has served
 during the past year. and having been requested by a number of the patrons Of the school to run again, has agreed to do so.
