HELPING THE GRAIN

Top Dressings Being Urged More Iaia
Year Than Ever to Overcome hn-

Agricultural authorities seem TO oe

cation Of top dressings of fertilizer
to help the winter damaged grain
crops and to supply some Of the plant
food that the heavy rains have wash
ed out
In statement sent out by the Farm
Service Bureau, Prof. J. ~ Harper,
a we'll known Southern agricultural
authority says:
"lt always pays to top dress grain'
especially oats. This year there has
been wet winter and the nitrogen
has been washed out Of the soil.
Grains that survived the severe win

dressings should be applied at once.

PLAN TO OVERCOME
LOSSES BY T.BOATS
Each Could be Built for $780,.
6G0,000.

New York. March 3.-A pian where
b; cargo tonnage can be created In
this country faster than Germany
can sink it," has been devised by F.
Huntington Clark, an American en-
gineer, according to an announcement
here tonight before joint session Of
the Automobile Club Of America, the
Aero Club Of America and the Motor
boat Club Of America.
The new type Of vessel, it was said,
could be built in great numbers quick
ly at small cost and by men of little
skill. Each vessel would be mastless.
smokeless and of diminutive size and
would have such low visibility as COM
pared with the great steel ships now
afoat, that it could be seen by a sub
marine at barely more than a third
Of the distance at which the 10000
ton steamship now is detected.
In addition, it was asserted, the new
craft, propelled entirely by motor,
would offer a smaller mark, would be
more easily manoeuvered in event o.
an encounter and because of it's small
draft OF from eleven to thirteen feet,
torpedoes that ordinarily would sink
the larger vessel OF steel construction
would pass idly beneath it,
It was estimated that thousand
vessels at 1000 tons each could be
built at q cost Of s100,000,000 in a
year. These boats would be 185 feet
over all with thirty-six foot beam.
Mr.. Clark's plan is to utilize all
of the coastal wooden ship yards
which now have a capacity of 250,0o0
tons year. To enlarge these plants,
it was asserted, would require nothing
more than the clearing of additional
beach or bank, the laying down OF
more cheap wooden ways and the set
ting up of additional lumber plani2g
and saving machinery.

buster. He said he would not dis
cuss his position on the neutrality
bill now but might have something CO
say about it later.
Pointing out that some OF the most
important appropriations bills, lncluo-
ing the navy and army measures, had
been presented to the senate only q
short time before March 4. he asked:
eve they so long coming to the
senate because it was undesirable that
they be discussed here?" The army
bill was presented. he said. with a
provision never bet,re dared to be
presented to an American congress-
with universal conscription or univer-
sal military training embodied In IL.
"You pile up legislation OF that
Sort" he continued, "and then 4S or
so hours before the end OF the ses-
sion you bring in a. bill that trenches
on the constitutional authority OF
congress and demand that debate
shall be made to conform. With this
sort to a rule and an iron hand laid
on this body from outside, with a
congress that has reduced itself In q
little less than three years to little
less than a rubber stamp, do you
not think this sort Of cloture would
be pretty effective?' The senator
read extracts from The Congressional
Record of previous debates on cloture
showing how many famous sena-
tors had opposed it.

my action in trying to defeat the
armed neutrality BILL" said Senator
Gronna. Fl was opposed to that bill
and am now, and if it were before the
senate 1 should talk against it ana

When Senator Smith Of Georgia
said the change in rules would be
useful to prevent occurrences SUCH
as that Of the past week, Senator
Stone remarked:
eff our action results in the senate
being able to Go some business. then
the occurrences Of the last week have
not been in vain
A resolution was prepared by Sen
ator Mclean OF Connecticut request
ing the president to cali a special
session Of congress March 20 because

honor and safety OF the nation re-

unable to introduce it today because
