YOUTH TO AVENGE
BROTHER KILLED "OVER THERE"

The first Washington man to shed
his blood for Old Glory since war was
declared against Germany will have
a brother in the national army.
William Eopolucci. 500 Eye street
southeast. was certified for military
duty in the first group by District
board No. yesterday.
His widowed mother Is willing TO
have her son go to the front line of
trenches and avenge his brothers
death. John Eopolucci, an American
merchant marine seaman gunner on
the liner Aztec. gave his life while
defending his ship from a U-boat at
tack. The Aztec was sunk and, while
most of the crew were rescued.
Eopolucci went to a watery grave.
When the younger brother was ex-
amined, he claimed no exemption. He
was eager and ready to take up the
fight against the ruthless German
submarine warfare. Mrs. Eopolucci

u. S. TO BUILD
ITS own YARDS
$3.50, 900, 900 to Be Asked
for U-Boat De-
stroyers.

Because private shipbuilding yards
are so jammed that they cannot build
any more destroyers at this time the
government is going to build its own
yards.
That Is the announcement made by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels yes
terday In his plan to give America
'the greatest destroyer squadron In
the world
In line with the announcement car
rled yesterday by the International
construction OF 16O additional destroy
ers had been decided upon, Secretary
Daniels announced that before the
week is out he will send to Congress
estimates calling for an appropri-
alton of $3.50, 100000 to build the fast
submarine hunters which have
proved so effective in cutting down
the toll OF Germany's undersea cam
paign.
In making his announcement the
Secretary said that the department
had decided it would be necessary to
construct plants for the building Of
destroyers and that the sum to be
asked for would cover such construc-
tion.
The Secretary's decision has been
taken after extended conferences be-
tween himself, his construction chiefs
and private shipbuilders from all over
the country. Every navy yard that
can build ships Is working at three
shifts-a-day capacity. All the pri-
vate yards are jammed with orders
for destroyers and other naval craft
and merchant ships for the emer-
gency fleet.
Last weeks conferences were to
discover whether there was any pos
sible method of increasing the out
put OF the yards now operating. It
was decided that this could be done
only in a few cases, and Mr.. Dam
iels' announcement of yesterday Is
the result
Mr.. Daniels would not make public
how many destroyers he expects to
build. He stood by his original state
ment that the department contem-
plates "the largest fleet OF destroy
ers in the world"
From other sources. however, II
was learned that the number hoped
for within eighteen months will be
at least four times the number of
destroyers in service at the begin
ming OF the war. This is in addition
to those launched since the declara-
ton OF war and others which will be
ready for the water within a few
months.
