1919 PROGRAM
PLANS SPEEDY
ARMY CARRIERS
Ship Construction Proposed
Will Be in Excess of Ten
Million Tons

Washington, April 25.-The Ship
ping Board has decided on a sub
stantial increase in it's building pro-
gram for 1919 over the tonnage
planned for this year, and indica-
tions are that the increase will be
continued in 1920.
For military reasons the exact
size of the future building program
was not made public. From previous
Statements of Chairman Hurley
however, it has been estimated that
the construction in 1919 will be in
excess of ten million tons, the larg-
est amount ever built in one year by
any nation. Before January l all
the shipyards will be in full opera
tion and many old yards which have
demonstrated their ability efficiently
will be expanded.
100000 Tons TO Be Steel
OF the total tonnage next year,
approximately 100000 tons will be
steel. There were thirty-seven yards
building steel ships when the United
States entered the war. They had
1872 ways, which were increased to
1s5 by the Shipping Board. Thirty
new yards have been established
with total of 203 ways. Thirty
five of the yards building steel ships
and 25S of the ways are on the At
lantic and Gulf Coasts, nineteen
yards and siXty-siX ways are on the
Pacific and thirteen yards and sew
enty-four ways on the Great Lakes.
1t is expected 100000 tons of
wooden ships will be turned out next
year. virtually all on the Gulf and
Pacific coasts. There now are 1872
ways for wooden ships.
Continuation of the Navy build
ing program may be expected, but
on completion of emergency work
ways for another $4,000 tons of
merchant shipping will be reached.

Washington, April Unofficial
advices that reached here last night
to the effect that the German am
bassador to Holland and the Dutch
ambassador to Germany had been re-
called took Washington by surprise.
While it has been known that the
situation between the two countries
has been tense in consequence of the
action of the allies in selling Dutch
tonnage and the refusal of Holland
to permit German supplies to go
through Dutch territory, officials of
the State Department declared to-
night that they could not believe an
actual break, had come. No official
advices, it was positively stated, had
been received
At the Dutch legation, where Off
cial confirmation was also lacking
the opinion was expressed that the
German ambassador had simply re-
turned to Berlin for instructions.
1t frequently happens, legation Off
Gals explained, that the Dutch and
German ministers, owing to the
nearness of their respective capitals,
go home for instructions of import
ant character rather than rely on the
uncertain character of telegraphiC
communication

NEGRO WOMEN ENTER INDUSTRY
Prove Efficient Workers, Though North

Negro women are leaving the kitchen

in New Jersey, according to William
N. Ashby, executive secretary of the

ark 1000 are employed in places made
vacant by the shifting of Hungarian,
italian, and Jewish girls to the NUM-
tons plants, which have not yet taken
the ColOred women workers to any great
extent.
"At first the Colored women were
paid a to IS week, the usual begin

when they were trained they obtained
advances in wages. On the whole, en-
ployers regard the experiment as sue
eessful."

COZ. FRANKLIN A DENIsoN
PASSED THROUGH CHICAGO
LAST SATURDAY EVENING on
H1s WAY TO CAMP DODGE. DIES
MONIES. WHERE BE WILL BE
CONFINED IN THE BASE HOS
PT1AL

It vas stated in these columns last
Saturday that Col. Franklin A Denison
was in New York City, subject to mill
tary orders; that he was more than
likely to arrive in Chicago on any train
and at 5 O'Clock that same evening his
train rolled into Chicago. He was met
by Mrs. DenisOn, Henry Jones and few
other friends, as he only had a few
hours TO remain here. he was driven
rapidly to his home, 3132 Calumet ave-
niue, where he enjoyed his dinner with
Mrs Denison and the children. Then
he made his way back to the Union sta
tiOn and shortly before 10 O'Clock he
was on his way to the Base Hospital,
Fort Dodge, Des Moines, Iowa.
Col Denison was surrounded with
Newspaper men the short time that he
was in the city, but he would not talk
for publication he is looking exceed
ingiy web and he says he is feeling wen.
BE wore French military cap, carried
a cane and was adorned with French
medals for bravery, which the bold and
daring soldiers prize 30 highly over the
seas.
1t is impossible to state at this time
just how long Col DenisOn win be con-
fined in the base hospital at Des
Aoines, for it is claimed that the burst
ing or the explosion Of so many shells
and bombs and the roar of the eannOns
caused an uneeasing buzzing sound to
penetrate through his head and that he
must be free from its effects before he
win be permitted to return to join his
regiment In France.

CONCERNING THE FOURTH
LIBERTY LOAN.
By W. g. McAdoo, Secretary Of
Treasury.

The privilege of conversion which
arose in consequence of the issue OF
4A% bonds of the Third Liberty Loan
win expire on November 9th and under
existing law cannot be extended or re-
newed. Holders Of these 40 bonds lose
nothing by exercising the privilege of
conversion and gain M interest per
annum. Holders of 40 bonds should
not wait until the last moment to exer-
else the privilege of conversion but
proceed to do so promptly. Delay will
result in overwhelming the banking in
situations of the country and the
Treasury Department by making it
necessary to handle all conversions at
the last moment, and may result in the
loss of the privilege of conversion alto
gether.
Holders Of coupon bonds are strongly
advised to request issue of registered
bonds in order to protect themselves
against the risk of loss, theft and de-
struetion of their bonds.
Official Department Circular No. ia,
with forms of application, has been dis
tributed to Federal Reserve Banks and
banks and trust companies throughout
the United States. These institutions
are asked, as a matter of patriotic serv-
ice, to assist bond holders in exehang-
ing 49S bonds for 4A96 bonds and in
their bonds.
