Official expression here indicated

BUILDERS TO USE TREENAlLS
How Framework Of Ships Under Con-
structlon for Uncle Sam VIII
Be Held Together.

The framework of the wooden ships
which are now being built for the
United States Emergency corporation
will not be held by even a single metal
nail. They will be pinned together
with treenails cut from the trunks Of
live oak or yellow locust trees.
There are two or three causes for
the use of wooden nails. One is the
great need of iron and steel in other
lines of war activity where wood
could not be used. and another is that
the wooden pin is lighter than metal
one and less expensive.
Each ships hull will require 100000
of the treenails, and they will be
fastened In place by splitting each
end and driving in white oak wedge.
Each ship will require 100000 wedges.
1t Is said that the wooden pins are
more quickly put In place than are
metal ones.
Treenails are "a inches long, an
inch and 4 quarter In diameter and
perfectly round. They are used to
fasten the planks to the boat frames.
Soon after a vessel is launched the
pins swell to a snug fit In the frame
work.
Timber for the ships comes fror,
the sawmills In 60-foot slabs IA inches
through, and is then worked into the
different sizes for the framework and
siding.

President Wilson Being Urged by
Some Of His Advisers TO Declare and

Westinghouse is admitted by Of
iicials here that now is the time for a
new and tempting peace offer from
Germany. They believe that such an
offer viii be only bait TO lure the en-

SO strong Is this belief that the pres

advisers in foreign affairs to declare
and define the new war problems

to summon the country to their solu-
ton, in advance of any proffered temp
tation from the other side of the battle
line.
No one would pretend to say what
the president will do.
II is authortatively stated in quar-
ters close to him that he viii not for
the present go before congress.
There are number Of indications
that the president Il studying a broad
program into which enter the follow
ing factors:
1. Should the United States by its
silence invite new peace offer from
Germany? Such an offer is recognized
in advance as nothing but an effort to
disrupt allied morale and fighting
spirit Apparently the president has
not decided whether it is better to
quit this game or again try to best
Hertling and Czernin mt 1t by making
"A declaration of war aims and peace
policies which will disrupt the central
powers more than anything they can
say will disrupt the United States.
2. Has the Russo-Japanese situa-
ton so crystalized as to permit the
United States to take a definite stand? |
g. How far should the president go
IN admitting the deficiencies in the
United States war preparations and |
the manufacturers, ship
builders and trainers of soldiers to
hasten the completion of their task?
