AYRSHIRE BULL GIVEN TO
VERMONT UNIVERSITY

Some months ago Prof. Storey OF
the State University in conversation
with G. II. Stoclwell Of South Wey-
mouth, Mass, spoke of the need of a
good Ayrshire bull for constructive
breeding in the University herd,
lS6ugh the efforts of Mr.. Stockwell,
young bull has been given to the
State herd through the generosity of
B. +. Butterfeld, Derby Line, Vt.
While at the National Dairy Show
at Springfield, Mass, Prof. Storey met
Ir. Buttorfcld and the bull was form
lily presented to the State Univer-
5ity. MIR. Butterfield has developed
,his young bull during the past few
months and it was shipped to Burling-
.on during the past week.
This promising youngster is sired
)y the imported bull, Edgeworth Ar
luth, 1928, bred by d. A. Ness of
Canada and now owned by Mr.. But
sorfeld. His dam is Alta Crest

considerable merit. Mr.. Butteriield
has an Ayrshire herd of over GO cows
md is now doing advanced registry

aral promising Ayrshire cows as a
foundation herd and much is to be ex-
pccted for this new sire, the gift of
loyal Vermonter and enthusiastic
Ayrshire breeder.

AVERTING A CALAMITY

Last summer a surrender by the
Government saved the nation the cal
amity of a railroad strike. Last night
surrender by the railroad managers
conference committee averted the
same calamity. The first surrender
was on the eve of domestic contest
involving the political life of the Ad-
ministration, the second on the eve Of
a foreign war involving the honor if
not the life Of the nation. Had the
President and Congress riskod their
political lives last summer by refusing
to surrender, the surrender of las:
night would not have been necessary.
The first surrender was as pusillan-
imous as the second was patriotic, for
the one was prompted by political ex-
pcdiency and the other by PATRIOTS
necessity.
Speaking for the President, the Sec
rc terry cf the Interior said to the
spokesman Of the railroad managers:
"This is a magnificent thing you have
done for the country" What the
aads Of the four railroad Brother
49cds have done "to" their country

necessary to say The diabolical &C:

bill, the department is planning tc
construct many craft Of this type un.
der the small boat emergency fund.
Three dreadnaughts, IS submarines
Is destroyers and several auxiliary
vessels remain 10 be contracted for
under the authorized building pro-
gram. Bids will be opened early in
April on these craft and at the same
time orders will be placed for more
than 100 coats patrol boats. A COM
mittee of small boat builders already
have approved the plans for these
craft which will be Of high speed and
10 feet in length, insuring good sea
going qualities.
The ultimate cost TO the government
of the ships ordered today will exceed
by many millions the figures given for
hull and machinery. 1t will cost
S465,692 per ship to arm and equip the
scouts and s5,337,Sl0 additional for
tsttii udbNit tIuoSi.
The shipbuilders having made finan-
cial sacrifices TO meet the govern
ment's needs, Secretary Daniels is
seeking similar agreements with the
contractors who supply material and
equipment to 60 in the ships. The
orders will be distributed among the
contractors so that no one company
will be unduly burdened. In addition,
through conferences now in progress,
il is hoped to secure an argeement un-
der which fiat rate of profit will be
fixed on these materials and govern
mcnt orders be assured Of first con-
sideration.
The plans for the three $4,000 ton
are not completed. At
least two, possibly all three, will have
to go to government yards although
that point has not been finally decid-
ed. The department has available
$12000,000 additional appropriation
for fitting yards for this work. In
addition considerable number of de-
stroyers and submarines must be laid
down at the yards, as the private
plants are overtaxed with the work
before them.

NAVAL CONTRACTS
PLACED BY u. S.
Largest Single Order for Fighting
Craft Even Given by Amy Nation.

Largest Single Order for Fighting
Craft Even Given by Amy Nation.
Washington, March 15-Contracts
for what is believed to be the largest
single order for fighting craft ever
given by any nation were placed to-
day by the navy department. Private
builders undertook to turn out -four
great battle cruisers and five scou'
,ruisers, costing nearly $l12,000,00
for hulls and machinery alone, and
pledging themselves to keep 70 per
cent Of their working forces on navy
construction.
In response to an appeal to their
patriotism by Secretary Daniels, the
major ship builders have agreed to
accept 10 per cent net profit on the
battle cruisers, whose cost will repre-
sent about $76,000,0O0 of the total
sum involved in today's contracts. A
fifth battle cruiser will be built at the
Philadelphia navy yard so as not to
strain the limit Of facilities of private
establishments.
The builders are besieged with Of
fers of merchant work, and are get
ting as high as fifty per cent profit on
these jobs with more work in sight
than they can do. They have placed
their facilities at the disposal of the
government, making it unnecessary
for the President to consider employ
ing authority to commander plants.
Both classes of cruisers ordered TO-
day are new types to naval architec-
ture, and are designed for a speed of
80 knots an hour.
The scouts were awarded on bids
submitted yesterday, prices ranging
from $5,959,000 to s5,996,000 and
stipulated time Of delivery from 80 to
32 months. These figures can be no
guide TO the actual cost or time, how
ever, as under the emergency clause
of the naval appropriation bill will be
hastened to the limit, the government
footing the bill for additional cost.
The battle cruisers, the fixed limit
of cost of which is S10,000,000 per
ship, exclusive of speeding up ex-
pcnse, were placed as follows:
Newport News Shipbuilding and
Dry Dock Company, two ships; Fore
River Shipbuilding Corporation, one
ship; New York Shipbuilding Com
pany, one ship.
With the exception Ct the New York
Company, each private builder will
have to install new ways and machin-
cry for the huge craft. The govern
mont will bear its fair share Of this
expense. Already an appropriation Of
Sc 900 600 has been ordered expended 1
to equip the Philadelphia yard for
capital shipbuildinF.
-Four Of the scout cruisers will be
built on the Pacific ccast; two by the
SEATTLE Construction Company and
Two by the Union Iron Works at San
Francisco The other two will be
built BY William Cramp & Sons Of
Cramps and the Union
Iron WORKS may he called upon also
% build a number OF dostrcycrs. In
idiition to the Is destroyers author
