FEAR FOR SAFETY
OF SWEDISH BARK

Unreported since being sighted off
st. Andrews three weeks ago, the
continued absence of the Swedish
bark Virgo is causing some consider
able apprehension in shipping cir
cles, and when the Norwegian bark
Sarepta showed up off the bar yes
terday it was thought this was the
missing vessel. Such, however. prov
ed otherwise, and the long missing
bark has heightened her absence day
by day, until she has been out. UP to
yesterday, total of "a days. She
was reported leaving Greenock Oc-
tober II or last year, and a report
of her passing Kildonian was the
only official record of her movements
until the fishing schooner Virginia, of
the Saunders fleet, reported the Viz
go of st. Andrews lately.
The Virgo loaded here last year,
taking to Great Britain a cargo of
naval stores. This cargo was safely
delivered, and the staunch little yes
sci started back over the same course
again.

PROGRESS ON

in Pensacola yesterday.
In discussing the work with The

the bridge ready for use by Mardi
Gras so that the residents of Low
er Baldwin county will have an OPP
portunity to enjoy the celebration.
"We lost two days in last week, "
said Mr.. Barclay, because of the
rather foggy weather. Had it not
been for this / believe the last OF
the outside piling would have been IN
place. As it is great strides are be-
ing made in the work, and 1 am in
formed by the supervising engineer
that work will be discontinued from

CUT WAR TAX BILL $4,000, 900
Senate Body Takes Tariff OFF Athletic
Goods.

Washington, June 15.-The house
war tax bill was decreased about $9,-
100000 more when the senate finance
committee decided to reduce the manu-
facturer's tax on athletic goods, patent
medicines, perfumeries and cosmetics
from to per cent.
Rates on distilled spirits, malt
liquors, wines and soft drinks, raising
On aggregate Of about $166,OOOOOO,
were approved virtually as drafted by
the house.
The committee also ratified its for
mer tentative approval of amendments
by Senator Gore Of Oklahoma placing
prohibitory taxes upon cereals used
in manufacturing distilled spirits for
beverage purposes and prohibiting I'M
portation of such beverages.
Reduction of the tax on patent medi-
cines involves a revenue loss Of more
than $5OOO,OOO and at the new rate Of
2 per cent will include about So, 3,4OO,-
600 instead of $8,5OO,OOO
The reduction in the rate on athletic
goods will reduce prospective revenues
from that source from $2,OO0OOO to

ALLY TO LIBERTY LOAN
COAL NEEDED TO WIN
R. B. Price Sees u. S. Defeat in
Case of Fuel Famine.
British Fleet Will BE Crippled and
German WarshIps viii Win Out,
Says Aero Club Officer.

Washington, June 15.-Addressing
the conference Of the national commit
tee Of patriotic and defense societies
Raymond B. Price, chairman Of the
committee on inventions Of the Aero
Club of America, made these declara-
tons:
!. Unless we can send Italy $1,000
tons OF coal per month she cannot con-
tinue her offensive. The ships are not
available to carry that coal.
2. The Italian and French navies
are crippled for lack OF fuel. Ger
many knows this and seeks to destroy
coal and Oil ships above all others.
s. II the fuel shortage continues the
British feet next fall will be so handi-
capped the German feet can escape.
4. Germany had her greatest food
shortage a year ago. With $4,000. 900
people in her captured territories to
tiA the fertile soil OF Poland and Rou-
mania, she Is not to be starved this
nor any other year.
8. America must rebuild the rail-
roads Of France and perhaps Of Russia.
Some experts say we must, to conquer
Germany, send $4,000 workmen, be-
sides an army Of 100000 to 5,OOO,O 900
men to France. A good start, even,
cannot be made within year.
6. Nearly one-eighth Of the worlds
merchant tonnage has been destroyed
during the war, double what has been
built in the same period.
Z. Even If not another ship were
destroyed we still could not send 1,OOO,-
cocoon men to France and maintain
them with year.
8. New needs Of appalling magni-
ture are appearing every week. Yet
there are not enough ships to meet
the needs Of hst year.
8. How fatefM are the next eight
months--when Italy may succumb,
when Russia appears helpless. when
even the British fleet, sole savior Of
the United States for the last three
years. may be rendered impotent. Is
1t not clear that fighting for democ-
racy' is but part of the case? We are
fighting for our very lives.
"Who says We have met our full OBJ
l1gatiOnsy demanded Mr.. Price. "Un-
der no conceivable conditions can we
build all the ships we ought to have
during the next eight MONTHS
Secretary Baker said: "Our hearts
and hands must be united If we are to
bring this war to speedy termina-
ton.
''The work before you today is to
appoint yourselves missionaries to
spread among all the people a definite
comprehension Of the problems con-
fronting the nation" he declared.
