WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Homer
Ferguson, president of the Newport
News Shipbuilding company, testi-
fled today the shipping board had
failed in its purpose to speed the
ship construction by communicating.
He estimated that 1918 production
would total 100000 tons, 100000
possibly; but he doubted If that
could be accomplished. Ferguson dis
closed Lloyd's estimate of the Amer
lean output for this year to be g.
100000 tons. He told the senate in
yestigating committee the report that
five to eight million would be pro
duced was misleading.

tuy Associated Press.D
Although infantry operations in
the major war theaters are of a
minor character, signs are not want
ing that big battles are in the pro
cess of making in Flanders, France
and Italy At various points in
these three war zones intensive
artillery duels are going on day
and night They are particularly
severe in the region of Ypres and
the Cambria sector where the
British are facing the Germans, along
the AlsHt, anu Du tie FEIuuH sCC-
tor and along the Noselle river,
where the forces of the German
crown prince and Grand Duke
AIbrecht of. Wurttemberg are OPP
posing the French. and in the Italian
highlands from the region Of Lake
Garda eastward TO the Piaye river
where the Austro-German troops are
aligned against the italians, French
and British.
Southwest of Ypres, in Flanders
the Germans have made an attempt
to enter British positions, but met
with repulse and heavy losses un
der the fire of the British infantry
and machine guns. Likewise an at
tempted raid against the French
positions on the historic hall 304, in
the yerdun sector, was stopped with
sanguinary losses to the Germans
These two maneuvers constitute the
only activity by infantry forces al
any point. except that small British
patrols at several places forced
crossings of the Piaye river against
the Teutonic allies.

TRAIL SHOULD BE
 BLAzED

"Why don't the people of Seward and Anchorage get together and e mand that the tiral between Ncnana and the coast be marked, blaZed or something, 50 that those who hit it from the interior will not get lost ami forced to siwash it for nights whi!a trying to find their way to some ro'f house? The trail is the shortest one from the interior to the coast and scores of men will be hiking out all winter, but they are going to have d hard time. It appears to me that tho Ala.ka Railroad Commission should get busy and do something"
 This is the straight way Erie NcI son has of handling out the points, right on the head, regarding the trai' rom Nenana towards the coast.
 And Erie Nelson knows what bc is taking about. In company with Jack Brevig, D. made the trip out from Ne. mana and arrived in Seward last Sat. urday night. Nelson says that fast time can be made if guide posts were put up and the trail blazed as it should be-
 We lost our way on the Giv:L' Broad Pass, and although within for miles of Golden's roadhouse, there i3 nothing on the Pass to show tke trav- eler which way to go. We hiked around four days on this bleak divide, knowing that a road house was near but not knowing in which direct.on 70 go. Take for instance. a large guido post denoting the right direction and within an hour the musher would be at his roadhouse, "said MT. Nelson tG- day at the Hotel Overland.
 "The railroad will within a tew weeks be out a good distance fror Nenana, in fact to the "oal fields at Lgnite. Then the musher hits th' tra'l to Marino's roadhouse. The next stopping place is at the Jack rive" Road House then the trip begins acr,ss the Broad Pass. It appears thJt nothing has been done on this D 1t oF the trail worth saying anything about. One travels back and forth. across creeks and rivers, trying to keep on the old horse trail. Then un the divide you go and there one sticks A guido post on the divide could eaS% ly be erected and point the way to Solden's roadhouse. Once at Golden $ the next stopping place is at Su'j- vans, on the middle fork, Indian river and Talk etna are the next stopping places and then into Seward over the railroad.
 fPeople on the coast keep saying why don't the mushers come out bv the Broad Pass route' Get busy and help blaze the trail and no one will have any kick about the mushers com ing out over the short land route.
