Washington, d. c., Feb. 19.-Con.
gress was asked by Secretary Daniels
yesterday for $23O,O77,152 to further
expand the navy's great building pro
gram, provide for more ordnance and
ammunition, cover additional pay for
an expansion Of the marine corps from
10000 to $4,000 men, and meet other
expenses not contemplated In this
years naval appropriation bill.
Of the total $100,000,00O is for addi-
tional construction and to speed up
construction now under way, Mr.. Dan
iels said most of this amount would
be spent for vessels smaller than
cruisers" and explained that the un.
parallelled rapidity with which some
yards were turning out detsroyers had
made it possible to place more con.
tracts for these boats than had been
thought possible. About a dozen new
contracts already have been placed,
half of the number going to the Mare
island navy yard, which recently
aunched destroyer complete. four
ncrths after, her keel was laid.
Some Of the money will be spent fol

CONSERVATION
BILL C0NFERS
WIDE POWERS
Control of Manufacture and Dis
tribution of Food Stuffs
Made Positive
HOUSEWIVES ARE EXCEPTED

Washington, D. C. Feb. 19-Specific
authority for the control of the manu-
facture and distribution of foodstuffs
and of public eating houses would be
conferred upon the president by the
food conservation bill completed yes
terday by the house agriculture com
mittee.
Blanket authority asked for by Food
Administrator Hoover was withheld,
the committee deciding to confine the
measure to the features emphasized
by Mr.. Hoover at committee hearings
as absolutely essential in the food
conservation program. A minority re-
port is expected.
To Conserve Wheat
Ey controlling manufacture, the
food administrator would be able tc
enforce any rules it might make for
conserving wheat and other essential
foodstuffs by the use of substitutes.
Control of distribution would enable
the administration to relieve possible
shortages in any section by shipping
food from other parts of the country,
In the hearings before the commit.
tee, Mr.. Hoover said it was not de
sired to attempt general rationing,
but that rigid control of public eating
eating houses was necessary to avoid
waste and also to stimulate conserva
ton in the home, many housewives
having complained Of waste in hotels
and restaurants.
Housewives and farmers are not at.
fected by the measure.

HOPE TO PASS
RAILWAY BILL
WITH NO DELAY
Administration Leaders Believe
Plans Will Insure Passage
~ This Week

Washington, Feb. 19.-Plans were
made yesterday which the admins
tration leaders believe will insure pas
sage of the railroad bill this week.
Under an informal agreement to be
submitted to the senate today for
ratification, debate will be limited to
five-minute speeches beginning at 2
p. m. Thursday and it is understood
that final vote can be reached be-
fore adjournment that day.
This agreement followed the read
ing of a letter to Chairman Smith Of
the interstate commerce committee
from Director General McAdoo urg-
ing the necessity for prompt action in
the matter and declaring that every
days delay was interfering with the
prosecution of the war. Chairman
Smith proposed the program infor
mally after his proposal to fix 5
o'clock Thursday afternoon as the
time to begin voting had been blocked
by an objection from Senator Poin-
dexter. The latter said he did not de-
sire to delay action, but wanted to
leave the way open for discussion of
any amendments that might be Of
fered.
Debate Continues
Debate on the bill continued yester-
day with Sen. Pomerene of Ohio and
Senator Watson of Indiana, both men,
bers of the interstate commerce COM
mittee, speaking in it's support. Both
urged liberal treatment for the rail-
roads while under government con-
troll, the latter declaring this course
preferable to having eighteen billion
dollars worth of property plunged into
litigation. The Indiana senator op-
posed government ownership of rail-
roads and the indefinite extension Of
government control, and urged the
senate to accept the committees pro.
posal to limit the duration of govern
ment control to eighteen months after
the war ends.
Senator Pomerene declared that the
present bill was war measure and
for that reason, no effort should be
made in it to correct the evils of the
transportation system.
Senator Johnson of California, will
discuss the bill today, dealing with
the question of government owner
ship.

Soon after the outbreak of war,

many such vacancies. Today they
