CHICAGO PLAYED BIG PART

Chicago, Dec. 16.-Chicago. repre-
sentative of the middle west, to
which the world has looked for its
provisions, has had a great share in
victualing peoples and armies during
the four years of the war and in that
period an enormous amount Of pro-
visions has passed through the Chi
cago gateway.
With the 1918 shipments there has
been shipped from Chicago more than
100000 900 tons of cereals.
i In the same period the meat ship
ments, according to the Drover's
Trade Journal, including cured.
canned and fresh meats amounted to
more than 10000 600 tons.
Fats, including lard, butter and
cheese totalled more than 1900, 600
tons.
In addition to grains, meats and
fats 20,415,000 bushels of potatoes
were handled put of Chicago, and s.
973.891 live hogs: 3.5S7,415 head of
cattle and 4,166,570 sheep were
shipped.
Prior to the spring of 1917 the US
ual agencies of trade conducted the
distribution Of the vast quantities of
foodstuffs sent out of Chicago and
contracts for provisions were made. by
foreign governments direct with the
dealers in Chicago. With the entrance
Of America into the war the food ad-
ministration through its various
branches took over the handling of
provisions in quantity and the dis
tribution was conducted under gov
ernmental supervision.

PROGRAM URGED
rhe United States Shipping
Boafd Makes It's An
nual Report Today.

n, Washington, Dec. 16.-Completion
8of the great merchant marine con-
struction program as it now stands
S1modified to meet the coming of peace
sand still further extension Of ship
aEbuilding is recommended by the
UNITED States shipping board in its
annual report to congress,
'Amade public today. The question of a
merchant marine program
lis left for future determination, the
sboard indicating that it will have sug-
ggestions regarding both development
land operation at the conclusion Of in
vestigations now in progress.
| Describing the tremendous aeet now
operated by the government, the re-
port shows how enemy tonnage was
secured not only by taking over ves-
sells interned in United States harbors,
but by. purchasing and %chartering
from other nations which likewise had
seized German and Austrian ships.
Siuba, China, Siam, Brazil, Uruguay
and Peru all aided the United States
and the Allies in this regard. The
cost Of repairing the German and
Austrian vessels amounted to approxi-
mately $11,194,S62.70.
The Emergency Fleet corporation
of the board owned on November 21,
according to the report, q total of ass
new ships, Of 2,64S,S92 deadweight
tons; SO former German vessels of
343,206 lightweight tons; six former
Austrian vessels ~aggregating $500
lightweight tons; and SO other ships
Of 137,248 tons.
OF the 81 Dutch vessels taken over
under presidential proclamation, So,
of 23S,340 deadweight tons, were

managed by the shipping board and
others by the navy. There were
328 foreign ships Of 1.366,361 dead
weight tons under charter to the
board on this date and $50 American
ships of 2,910,766 deadweight tons
under reQuisition, making a total fleet
of 1886 vessels aggregating 7,498,075
lightweight tons owned, managed or
by the shipping board.
With regard to the requisitioning Of
American tonnage, the report says:
Perhaps no phase Of the shipping
boards work has been more difficult
to adjust fairly and satisfactorily than
that involved in the requisitioning of
ships for use. Nevertheless, most
owners have co-operated with excel
lent spirit"
Contracts and commitments of the
Emergency Fleet corporation for the
construction of ships made during the
year. provided for 1896 steel cargo
80 steel tankers, Of $4,000 dead
weight tons; 81 steel troop ships, of
$4,000 lightweight tons; two steel
hospital ships, of 10000 lightweight
tons; four steel refrigerator ships, of
1880 lightweight tons; 104 ocean
going steel tugs and eight steel harbor
tugs; n 16 steel barges, of $4,000
lightweight tons.
The wood and composite ship con-
tracts called for 181 complete wood
ships Of 707,5 500 deadweight tons;
$40 hulls, Of 1,841.OO0 lightweight
tons; 14o barges of 659,50O dead
weight tons; 1862 wood tugs, and 80
composite ships, Of 10000 dead
weight tons.
From the time Of it's organization
up to August 81, 1918, a y the re-
port, the corporation had negotiated
495 contracts. aggregating 2,298 ves-
sells, with a total of ~14,119,130 dead
weight tons, involving an estimated
cost Of 50, 319,216,2O4.
Dealing with the steel ship pro-
gram, the report states that efforts Of
h steel ship construction division
have been devoted to accelerating the
construction Of ships, obtaining ships
suitable for war purposes, improving
the quality of new construction, and
obtaining ships at reasonable prices.
During the year ending August 81, 566
keels were laid, 1858 ships launched.
and 287 ships Of 100000 lightweight
tom completed.
The report declares that a ma
terially better accomplishment is on

During the fiscal year ending June
80, 1917, III American vessels Of a.
TAO lightweight tons were transferred
to foreign registry, permits being
granted by the board when special
circumstances indicated that the
change would not injure the national
interest. During the same period
foreign built vessels placed under
American registry numbered IS, of
545,995 lightweight tons, % includ-
ing vessels Of Dutch registry taken
over by the president.
sPermits for the construction of
295 vessels of 437,09O lightweight tons
for American private interests, and of
1877 vessels of. 3S9,160 lightweight
tons for foreign interests, were
granted by the shipping board up to
October IS. OF these vessels, PSI
were wood, 145 steel and Sc concrete.
The report reviews all the activi-
ties Of the board, especially in onnec
ton with the development Of port and
harbor facilities, training deck and
engineer officers and crews for the
merchant marine, establishment and
developing shipyards, and training
workmen for them, and establishing
housing facilities for shipyard work

fidently expected during the coming
year and that gratifying progress
along technical lines was made, par
ticularly in the simpli1cation and i'm
provement of ships, and STANDARDIZED
ton of the many fittings required.
With regard to the wood ship pro-
gram. the report says the board has
recognized that more careful atten-
ton should be given to ships Of large
size. and after investigation has de-
cided to recommend that efforts be
a %5,000-ton flush-deck wood ship,
which would be as strong as the
3,500-ton types now being built, and
which could be produced at a saving
Of approximately $40 per ton. At the
present time. ten types of wood ships
of $500, 1000 and 5000 lightweight
tons are being turned out.
Since August i, wood ship produc-
ton has averaged at least n COM
'plete, ready-for-service wood steam
ship per calendar day and the report
declares that this average will in
crease.
Concrete ship construction has been
limited, the report states, because this
type Of vessel Is admittedly less eff
ficient than the steel ship as a cargo
carrier and because the present hull
producing capacity of the country in
steel and wooden ships is in excess of
the producing capacity Of marine
engine makers, and machinery for
operating concrete ships could not be
made available. However, contracts
for construction of five government
owned shipyards for concrete con-
| struction have been signed and work
begun, and the present construction
program provides for 38 concrete
tankers and arg ships of $500 tons,
three cargo ships of $500 tons and
one cargo ship of 5000 tons. In ad-
dition, plans have been prepared for
a $500 lightweight concrete schooner
coal barge and bids asked, it being
intended to build rs of these. b
