ALLIED COUNTRIES
 ! ARE FULLY ADVISED !. ON J. 5. ATTITUDE
Plans for Rehabilitation of Russia Without Exciting
 Distrust Are Going
 - Ahead Rapidly

Washington. July 9.-The entente gOvernments, through their embassies in Washington. arc now fully advised of the views of the Washington admin fstrntion to the best means of car rying out President Wilson's pledge to "stand behind Russin.. It Is under stood project Is taking shape which it is hoped will countcract German in- fluence and lead the people to rcbablli- tate themselves without exciting dis trust of the unseIffsh motives which lie behind 1t.
 While any official statement of the administrators policy still is with keld. there is reason to believe that the proposal to send American busi- ness men to Russia to carry material aid to the people with armed guards to insure the safety of the personnel and supplies from German aggression is forming the basis of the negotia- tions now proceeding with unusual rapidity between Washington and the entente capitals. Only it has assumed new phase through the injection of the idea to ake the commission an armed guard only in composition, thus tending to disarm any suspicious on
 
 country is to be exploited in the inter- ests of single power.
 NOT AS DESIRED
 This measure is far short of the orig inal desires of the entente govern ments which frankly favored the dis patch into Siberia and perhaps into Flu ropean Russia through the Archangel or Kola route, of a joint military expe- dition. But it is believed that in the absence of full American approval of shis plan the entente powers have been brought to the point where they are willing to at least sanction the experi- ment of peaceful penetration and that negotiations are now in progress to ar- range the details of this enterprise. At any rate, the fact developed today that some action is imminent
 NORTHERN ROUTE
 Possibilities of sending relief to Rus sia by the northern route, using kola and Archangel as bases, was strength ened today by reports reaching the state department. From Swedish press sources it was stated the population of the Mourmansk coast had repudiated the bolshevik government and declar cd their adherence to the entente forces which now are stationed on that coast. Limitations have come from Finland that eStrohB opposition to German con : trol is developing there and that it is puite improbable that military forces can be raised in that country to attack the entente and American marines and bueJackets now at Kola and vicinity.
 WORD FROM FRANCIS
 A cablegram from Ambassador Fran cis, at Vologda, dated July '. which was received today, relieved the apprehen- sions of the state depa artment officials for his safety.
 It was assumed that, in view of it's importance, and the urgency expressed by the entente powers. the Russian programme was discussed at the regu- lar cabinet meeting today, but there was no official announcement on ths subject.

NEW PROBLEM PRESENTED

At least 15 wooden ships are expected to be completed this month. evidence that the supply of machinery becoming available is growing to keep pace with the launching of hulls. Installation of boilers and engines in wooden vessels presented d new problem for the board inasmuch as the technique is very differ ent from installing machinery in steel hulls and crew trained to do one cannot necessarily be successful at the other Experienced men are being de- veloped to handle the wooden ships, which are taken to concentration ports on gulf sor Pacific or Atlantic coasts as the case may be, to. receive finishing touches.
 Rumors that the wooden programme might be abandoned were ridiculed today. Wooden ships are counted upon to form a transporta tion bridge" around the coasts of the United States and to the Latin-American countries as important, from a financial and economic stand point. as the bridge of steel ships to Europe
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-07-10
OUTPUT OF WOODEN HULLS

The output of wooden hulls has been especially gratifying to the shipping board, in view of the fact that wooden shipbuildng has had to be revived vir- tually from the ground up. Starting with the idea of building two ships year on each way the board has found that many yards can turn out three ships a year, which is one reason why the board is unwilling to authorize the establish ment of other yards.
 We are going to manufacture wooden ships just as we are going to manufac- ture steel ships, instead of building them" Chairman Hurley said today.
