january and February were hard months TOT
shipbuders in certain important dstricts the
yards were incomplete, the workmen unaccus-
toned to their surroundings, and the weather I'M

these factors creditable advance in production
was made, and this has been maintained stead
lily from month to month. Not all the yards are
yet in operation; in fact most Of them are as
yet unable to work at their full capacity The

now Yet ships are being built and launched at
a rate that gives promise of early fulfillment

The New York Times:

The New York Times:
It would be a great pity if the government
were to lose the benefit of Henry Ford's skill and
ability, it would do If he were to be elected
to the senate Mr., Ford would have to give up
all his contracts with the government. He would
have to stop doing all the work that he is so
well qualified to do so qualified above other men.
The law forbids anyone interested in government
contracts from holding office. Even if Mr.. Ford
could find way around the law, public opinion
would not tolerate his doing it; It would be a
scandal It is not thtnkable that he could put his
interest in some one else's name.
If the government to sacrifice all this
for a greater gain, it could be endured. But
there would be no greater gain to offset it. There
would be no gain at all. There would be
loss. Mr.. Ford is a man Of lovable qualities, but
there are many men of lovable qualities who are
not qualified for the United States senate; and
Mr. Ford is disqualified by possessing kind
Of mind which, no matter how we'll he might
apply himself to the study, would leave govern
ment and politics sealed book to him all his
days. His entrance into the senate would create
a vacancy both in the senate and in the auto
mobile business and from the latter Mr. Ford
not be spared.

Washington, June 2A.--Casualties in

Casualties among the marines with

Il pledge my continued and whole hearted
support to the government in the vigorous and
efficient prosecution Of the war" reads the po-
litical advertisement of John M. Baer.
Well, why weren't you the job to vote for
the most important war question Of all that
have arisen since you have been in congress?
That was the declaration of war on Austria,
Instead Of being the job you were campaign
ing for members of the Nonpartisan league in
Minnesota, and collecting the SIS premiums for
your boss Do you need the extra money the
league pays you for drawing pictures, in add
ton to your $1,000 salary and your profitable
contracts with Hearst newspapers to draw car
ICONS for them? If every congressman had
given that brand of whole hearted support, .
Italy would be in the hands Of the Huns now.
Loyalty demands that we support one great
leader the commander chief of our army and
navy, Woodrow Wilson," said John Baer at Cas-
selton.
didly That's what we've been telling you for a
year, and you have almost grasped it at last:
Why didn't you support him when he wanted
congress to declare war on Austria? And why
didn't you support him when Lhdbergh was
running for office in Minnesota? And why
don't you support him by breaking with the
gang Of disloya1 Socialists who give you your
directions?

DOUGHBOYSGIVE
 CHIEF EXECUTIVE HEARTY GREETING
Shout Merry Christmas" From Box Cars, Trees and House TOps-PeOple Turn Out En MaSse.

Chaumont, Dec 25-President Will son received a most cordial welcome today from the people of Chaumont, a town which has been closely asso- ciated with the history of the Ameri- can expeditionary forces in France and isnow the headquarters of the commander -in-chief. It is the town from which America's part in finish ing the war was directed.
 The presidential train, which left Paris at midnight, drew into the Chaumont station at 9 o'clock this morning. General Pershing, General Wirbel, the French officer command ing the zone, M. Fossien, prefect of the department of Marne, and M. Levy vy-Alphandery, mayor of Chau- mont, were on the platform to receive the president and Mrs. Wilson who. after responding to the cordial greet ings, passed through salon, hung with red tapestries and flags, to the court yard, where a company of the 109th French infantry and company of the 102nd American infantry were drawn up to render honors.
 The exterior of the station and the court yard had been decorated for the occasion by American soldiers with 4 ter passing the guard of honor in re- view the president took his place i'll the motor car and the party proceed ed to the city hall Dense crowds massed behind the lines of guards in khaki and the streets were brilliantly decorated and hung with banners bear ing inscriptions of welcome.
 As the party passed through the people of Chaumont joined in a con tinuous exclamation of the president.
 At the Hotel de Vile, the mayor in a speech of welcome announced to the president that the town of Chaumont, in order to commemorate forever this historic day, had decided to seal into the wall of the Hall of Fetes, marble slab bearing in golden letters the date of President Wilson's visit He added that the people were planning to erect monuments to the Americans and British.
 The mayor presented to Mrs. Will son a box filled with gloves.
 As his train moved in the president saw on every hand monuments of America's participation in the war There were great piles of supplies everywhere and American soldiers swarned on locomotives, box ears, tree tops and every point of vantage to get a glimpse of the president and shout Merry Christmas"

CONFERENCE NOT
 TO OPEN UNTIL
 LATE IN JANUARY
Many Nations, Old and New, Seeking Representation at the Peace Table-Will Settle Prin- cipleS First.

Y Paris, Dec. 25.-More than three weeks probably will elapse before the general peace conference assemblies. It is unlikely that any official state ment will be issued in the meantime concerning the number of govern ments to be represented or the tests to be applied to determine the right of applicants to participate.
 Technical experts attached to the delegations of the principal powers already have given much study to this subject. If negotiations to reach an agreement on this point have not been undertaken already it is certain they will be immediately after President Wilson's return from London.
 Notwithstanding the indisposition of the British government to inject business into Mir. Wilson's visit, it is possible that in his conferences with Premier Lloyd George and Foreign Minister Balfour the foundation may be laid for settlement of the question of representation which Mr. Wilson probably has discussed with Premier Clemenceau.
 Conditions which will confront the peace conference when it opens will not be unlike those marking the open ing of new congress in the United States, or a national convention. In the first the house clerk determines the tentative membership and in the second the committee on credentials prepares a tentative list of delegates. At the peace conference delegates must be prepared to present adequate credentials from their legislature, king, president, or other executive au- thority.
 It is considered probable that sev eral countries on the tentative list will be closely restricted at the begin ming, when broad questions of policy will be outlined But additions to the list of delegates may be made later when the conference gets down to de- tails and general principles. Still later another class of nations may be ad- mitted, including the central powers, to lay the foundations for the formal signing of peace treaties.
 Theoretically these persons are sub ject to mutual examination and chal- lenge in case of doubt but actually, in the forthcoming conference, the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy and later, perhaps, Belgium, by reason of sentimental considerations, probably will reach an understanding as to the admission of delegates.
 The neutral powers probably will be allowed to participate when the stage is reached where it is desirable there should be worldwide adoption of the plans prepared at the preliminary sessions for the permanent settlement of war issues and the assurance of permanent peace.
