AMERICAN ZEPPELIN
 FLIES OVER GOTHAM
IRepubIican A. p. Leased wife1

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-New Workers who happened to be gazing heaven ward late today stopped, rubbed their eyes then thought of horr1fying stories they had read of Zeppelin raids on London. Flying majestically over their heads was a huge cigar-shaped dir igible balloon, at least 200 feet long.
 Flights of airplanes over the city have become so common they fail to cause thrills, but this monster of the air was something entirely new. Close inspection disclosed that it flew an American flag. but there were pessi- mists who maintained that thie might be merely German camouflage to al- lay suspicion.
 The dirigible first appeared over South Brooklyn, then over downtown New York, and finally over Governor g Island. Investigation brought the in- formation that it started at 3:50 o'clock on trial flight from the new fort at Rockaway point and it returned safely at o'clock. It carried crew of eight men. At the aviation field at the fort it was said the balloon is of the type known as the American Zeppelin The flight today was to test the effi- ! cacy of dropping men in parachutes Two men of the crew dropped to the ground safely from a height of 800 feet at different points.

state corporation commission the fight was continued by Mir. Jones, and in one way or another it has been brought be- lore the interstate commerce commits sion many times. It came up at Chi cago last summer at the time of the hearing of the application of the rail- roads for the blanket 15 per cent in- crease. That hearing took place before a representative of the interstate com- merce commission who recommended the abolition of the back haul. It was suggested that this might be accom- plished in either of two ways; by re- ducing the intermountain rate to the Pacific terminal rate or by increasing the latter to the intermountain rate.
 Last fall the matter came up again before the commission at Washington, and though it was extensively dis cussed, no action was taken though it was indicated that on account. of the shortage of transportation, water com- petition was only a fiction and the statement was then made that if there had ever really been any competition. it could not be re-established until some years after the war.

CONVERTED GERMAN
 SHIP TAXES 8,0OD
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Secretary Daniels, discussing a dispatch from American army headquarters in France regarding communicated Ger man ships being used to transport American troops abroad, disclosed to- day that between 600,000 and 100000 tons of former enemy shipping is act lvely engaged in augmenting the ex- peditionary forces and maintaining their supply.
 The Leviathan, formerly the Vater- land, is capable of carrying up to 10000 troops in single voyage, Mr. Daniels said, but 5000 was consideerd the largest number which could be comfortably accommodated. In con- nection with the repair of the Levia- than it was learned that alterations made by American engineers resulted in the increase of several knots in her speed. One instance of improvement over the work of German shipbuilders was in the steam distribution system, which was found to be so inefficient that large part of the boiler power did not reach the engines.

Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Central- iZed control of trans Atlantic shipping was established today with the creation of a ship control committee to have su- preme charge of the operation of all ships-American, allied and neutral entering and leaving American ports.
 The committee was named by repre- sentatiVes of the shipping board, the war and navy departments, the food and fuel administrations. the director of railways, the British government and owners who met to devise some plan for speeding up the movement of supplies to Europe.

Goods destined for. overseas Will be loaded in available ships wheth- CT operated by the United States or the allies. With the aid of the railroad ad- ministration the committee will divert to southern ports much of the supplies that heretofore have clogged the port Of New York and incoming vessels will be directed by wireless to proceed to the ports in which materials of the most importance await shipment. In connection with the action off, clais attached particular significance to | the decision to dispatch abroad Ray mond $. Stevens, vice chairman of the shipping board and George Rublee of the boards legal staff to sit in London and Paris as permanent representa- tives of the United States in shipping matters. A decision to give the control con- mlttee authority to divert to the var | lous ports shipments of goods intended Tor overseas transportation, officials sad, will accomplish an amalgamation l or rail and water transportation facil- ities sought since the beginning of the ! war.

Of Great Importance Here

The intermountain case really had it's origin in Phoenix more than dozen years ago when the matter was brought up by the Maricopa County Club of which F. A. Jones, now of the state corporation commission, was secretary. The case was prepared by Mir. Jones who, with Attorney Costigan of Denver represented the club before Special Ex- aminer Lyon of the interstate com merce commission in a hearing here of several days. Though some relief was afforded intermountain points as a re- suit of that hearing, the back haul still remained to the disadvantage of Phoe- nix and towns similarly situated. Sub- sequent hearings were held at Reno and Spokane, and from the former the common name of the case was taken It was generally referred to as the Reno case'
