TO BUILD SHIPS AT
 BROWNING BEACH.
Connecticut shiphuildins Co. Capital.
 ized at Half a Million.

The Connecticut Shipbuilding com pany3 of New London has been ihcor- porated under the laws of the state of Connecticut and will engage in the. shipbuilding industry on the Thames river, the plant being located at what was formerly known as Browning
 beach, in Waterford The company received it's certificate of incorporation
 Wednesday and it is capitalized at $500, 900.
 Ground was broken at Browning
 beach Monday. The contractors have started grading the property and as4
 sure the company that the grades will
 be ready in 90 days and that it is
 hoped to be possible to begin laying
 keels in 60 days.
 The ground is being broken by
 blasting, and already the work has
 advanced considerably, although the company has been at 1t only two days. The CopnecticuI SEipbuilding con-
 pany will build only lighters, barges
 and tugs at present, and it is inti-
 mated that larger vessels will be con- structed later. The company will ern- ploy large number of, men and the
 force will be gradually increased. Jonathan Starr, a New York invest
 ment banker, is looking after the in- tereStS. or the company ana supervising it's operations. The Connecticut Ship building company is not constructing
 vessels for the government, but at
 present has only contracts of private concerns.
 MT. Starr is enthusiastic over the location of the plant. T believe that the location of the Connecticut Ship building company at Browning beach cannot be equalIed. Engineers have told me that it Is the best location for the industry on the Atlantic coast, having all thef natural requisites. The depth of water and it's proximity to New London harbor make the site an ideal one for this industry" In addition to it's water frontage, the plant will have excellent railroad facilities. Men are already engaged in constructing a spur track of the Gen. tral Vermont railroad to the property The spur track will be 506 feet in length.
 Mir. Starr declared that he has no stock for sale. Half Of the stock has already been placed and the balance is in the hands of a New York broker

PRESIDENT TAKES UP
SITUATION IN RUSSIA
No Announcement Made Of Change
in Policy, But Question Receiving
Careful Consideration.

President Wilson's engagement list
this week gave evidence Of his con-
sideration of the Russian situation
and a desire to gather information
bearing upon it from all quarters.
There has been no announcement Of
any contemplated action, either at the
White House or at the State Depart
ment, and so far the country's policy
remains unchanged. However. allied
representatives here are known to ia
vor strongly Intervention in concert
with the United States. and the Sem
ate discussion yesterday on this sub
ject added to the interest in it.
Gen. H. M. Berthelot of France. who
now is in Washington. called upon
the President this week. Gen. Ber-
thelot formerly headed French mis-
sion to Russia. and Is considered one
of the best informed men now in
Washington on Russian conditions.
Also among tho Presidents callers
was DR.. John r. Mott, member Of the
American mission to Russia. which
was headed by Elihu Root. DR.. Ma

FAVORS
RETIREMENT PLAN
Assures Congressman of His
Sympathy With Civil
Service Measure.

Senator McKellar and Representa-
tive. Keating, who called late yester-
day afternoon at the White House to
urge the President to support the civil
service retirement bill, introduced by
them in their respective houses, said
today that they had found the Presi-
dent in sympathy with civil service
to take their bill under advisement.
It is understood that the President
informed Senator McKellar and Mr..
Keating that he was not sure whether
the bill should be included in the war
legislation program determined upon
for the remainder of the present ses-
sion.
He said that he had not seen the
Notwithstanding bill and that there
fore he was unable to pass upon it.
However, the President promised to
read the bill. and 1t will be sent to him
by its authors along with a statement
showing just what its effect will be.
After the President has had an op-
portunity to go over the bill and the
other data presented Senator Mcclellan
and Mr.. Keating will go to the White
House again to confer with him in re-
gard to the measure. They are anxious
to get the bill enacted at the present
session. They believe it will be pos
sible to have the bill considered in
the Senate and House when other
measures are preparing or when one
house is waiting upon the other to act
upon the revenue bill.
