Program Being Trimmed.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Oficials
here today while admitting they ex-
pected Chairman Hurley to return
around the first of the year." de-
clined to say definitely the date OF
his expected return.
The lifting of the ban on private
ship building was regarded here as
the best evidence that the actual pro-
gram of ship construction was being
trimmed to the minimum. In connec-
ton with this indication, officials
pointed out that Director General
Schwab was finishing plans which
will permit him to turn over the
work to Hurley without leaving a
mass of uneompleted details.
In allowing a resumption of build
ing for private account, the shipping
board was said to have been actuated
by a desire to provide work for all
men who care to return to the ship
yards from the army. The board has
limited the construction on steel
ships to construction for American
forms only, for the reason that dan
ger existed that too many foreign
firms might engage our yards, to the
detriment of American interests, il
was stated.
WIN Will JIG Uuht lOl
foreign countries, it was believed 1t
is generally expected among shipping
board officials that with Schwab's re-
tirement, many changes in the ship
ping board organization would come.
Activities thereafter, necessarily
would have to center around Hurley.
Charles Piez, general manager of the
fleet corporation will quit as coon as
relieved. His retirement, while mean
ing changes of the boards personnel,
were regarded as forerunners of i'm
portant moves toward making the
board a compact business directing
group-an agency to promote the
shipping interests of peace, rather
than to develop a giant war con-
struction program.

WOUNDED AIRMAN ACTS AS
BALANCE ON AIRPLANE
.(By United Press.)

London. Nov. 2. (By Mail. "A
royal air force report relates that a
British two scatter, on patrol, sighted
d number of Fokker biplanes which
were Immediately engaged. Dashing
into the German formation, the
British pilot succeeding in sending
one Fokker spinning to earth. The
Germans had by this time recov--
cred from their surprise, and made
"a concerted attack upon the daring
British plane, pouring in a perfect
hail of bullets. Though the British
pilot unanswered very swiftly to
throw the enemy gunners off their
mark, one unlucky burst severed the
left aileron wires of his machine, SO
that ii. fell in sheer side-slip for
1900 feet.
The observer, though wounded,
clearly and cody realized the danger,
climbed out ON the bottom plane,
and by manipulation of his own
weight, restored the balance of the
machine. BY remaining out on the
plane during the whole flight this
wounded observer enabled his pilot
to bring back and safely land the
machine behind the British lines.

Rome, Oct. II. (By Mail)-The
central committee Of Genoa OF the
5anti-German leagues has taken the
Initiative in a widely and rapidly
spreading movement for erection on

tcenter Of Rome, of monument 70
President Wilson 0
On Capitoline Hill more Of human

there more OF humanity's history lis

in the world, not even the Acfopolis
Iof Athens excepted.
That the hackers of the present
flnogementto assign to President Will
son an. eternal place among the sacred
memories and relics OF this altar of
civilization are fully conscious of the
grandeur of the honor they wish to
bestow is indicated in the following
letter Of Bruno Larizza, deputy to the
Italian parliament, in response to the
invitation to become a memberof the
committee charged with the erection
of the memorial. The letter reads
81 applaud with all my heart the
idea OF a monument in Campidoglio

There is no other place in the
world more worthy of the Grand
Apostle Of Humanity at the opening
of a new era in the worlds history
than here in the heart Of Rome, the:

From the heights Of the sacred
hill that looked down on the remains
of the Roman Forum, where through
the centuries every strong man has
thrilled at the echos of the voice Of
Tullius, Cato, Caesar, and Cola di

Messiah will grow large and live in
future history along with those great
spiritual guardians of the Eternal
City, with Caius Marius and Victor
Emanuel Ii.
For men like Woodrow Wilson,
like Abraham Lincoln, like Giuseppe
Mazzini and Giuseppe Garibaldi do
not belong to one country, but have
for their fatherland the world. And

REGULAR TIME FOR FEEDING
Quantity Supplied to Various
Farm Animals.

A great deal of feed is wasted
through ~irregularity in the time of
feeding and variation in the quantity
in which it is supplied. On some days
the feed is given often but on others
1t Is provided at much longer inter-
walls. Sometimes the quantity Is liber-
al, at Others 1t is Scanty. In extreme
cases the feeding of the animal ranges
from feasting to furnishing.
Wide variations in the quality OF
the feed also aus a great deal OF
