Then it did not add to his amiability
to have shoe string break as he hur-

he started to put on collar and found
it rough and frayed on the edge-with
rasping oath he tore it across and
threw it on the floor.
How many times have told you not
to put any frayed collars in this
drawer ?" he demanded as Helen came
in.

Always Helen had striven to have his
clothes in order. Even though she had
to neglect her own and Winifreds, she

AS he took it down Helen stepped
forward and felt the eoat-but there

The man shook his head. Nothing

"Oh, but Mr.. Curtis was Quite sure
that he left a billbook."
Nothing in pockets" stolidly, as be

Not knowing what else to do, Helen
took the awkward bundle and hurried
home. Then she searched every pocket
but they were empty, except for SUBJ

Then she called up Warren.

asked cautiously.

She knew Warren always hated to be
questioned, that he always wanted to
wait and tell things at his own time.
But now she could not refrain from
asking:

What did he say?" irritably. "Said

HOUSES TO Be
COMMANDEERED
FOR WORKERS
Shipping Board Plans to
Provide Accommodations
For Thousands
(By Associated Press. }

Washington, March Before pro-
ceeding with construction of housing
for shipyard workers, the shipping
board, 1t was announced last night,
will commander all available empty
hotels, apartment houses and resi-
dences in cities near where ships are

being built. In this way, it is ex-
! pected to supply accommodations
Immediately for thousands OF work
men.
The $50,000,O00 housing bin sIgned
| by President Wilson, authorizes the
board to commander not only houses
but land, and transportation systems
as well. Tt Is entirely likely that
the land on which houses are to be
built, will be Communicated in most
instances, to prevent speculative
prices.
The shipping board has already
made a survey of housing facilities
in the neighborhood Of ship plants
and is ready TO take whatever is
available Immediately. Compensa-
ton will be determined by the en-
Urgency fleet corporations division
OF public service under ]. Rogers
Flannery.
In communicating houses the
board will go into the suburbs and
to summer resorts where many
houses and hotels have been empty
all winter Some houses available
for accommodating ship workers
have not been used heretofore be-
cause the owners have asked ex-
orbitant prices.
Houses Communicated VIII be held
until the end Of the war, and then
will be, turned back to their owners
or sold. The houses to be built will
be either rented or sold to shipyard
workers.
1t is considered probable that a
number of electric railway systems
leading from cities to shipyards may
be taken over and some ferry and
excursion boats also may be taken
for the purpose of establishing ferry
lines to yards.

JAPAN NOT SEEKING ANY
TERRITORIAL EXTENSIONS
(By Assoeiated Press.l

London, Friday, March 1.-Reuter's
Limited has issued the following
statement from an authoritative
Japanese source in London:
Japan has put forward no sug-
gestions regarding any action that
may be necessary as a result OF the
Russian situation. The plain facts
are that few days ago Japan adj
dressed inquiries to the allied gov
ernments asking for an expression
of their views on the latest devel-
opments in Russia. There has been
no proposal, military or otherwise,
by japan
1T is pointed out that Japan did
not enter the war under any terms
or agreements with the allies which
would suggest that there had even
been any question of aggrandize-
ment in the mind of Japan. There
was no such thought when Japan
embarked on i1ostilities and IL she
has to extend operations, her object
will not be aggrandizement."
