Ships are available to transport big
American Army to France, President Will
son was told last night by Chairman Hur-
ley OF the shipping board. but the problem
of keeping the Army supplied. once it is
overseas has not yet been solved.
At 4 long conference between the Presi-
dent and Chairman Hurley every phase
Of the question was discussed, including
progress Of this governments shipbuild-
ing program. plans for obtaining ships
from the allies and negotiations for re-
lease of neutral tonnage for transatlantic
service Mr.. Wilson showed special in
terest in the proposal to obtain additional
tonnage for war purposes by reducing i'm
ports to this country from neutral coun-
tries. The reduction, he was told. may be

Allies to Furnish Some Ships.

That the allies will endeavor to furnish
additional ships for American troops and
munitions was one of the developments at
the recent session of the supreme war
council at Versailles. The allies pledged
that ships should be Forthcoming. even if
to provide them II became necessary to
reduce further their imports of foodstuffs
1t was made plain at the Versailles
conference that while America has a
large Army ready to send and can find
the ships to get it to France, it is un-
willing troops shall go forward until
sure there VIII be shipping to keep
them provisioned and supplied with the
materials wherewith to fight. The
allies are anxious above all things
that there shall be more American
troops in France to help meet the ex-
pected German offensive. and they
readily agreed to the making OF further
sacrifices. If that be necessary to get
them there.
A million men on the fighting front
will require. according to the best esti-
mates available. from four to seven
million tons of shipping in continuous
service across the 5000 miles of water
between America and Europe. The
United States can lay its hands on
about four million tons now, and ex-
poets to build during the year any
where from three to six million tons
more.

workers reserve and for obtaining
more work out of shipyard labor at

The plan to cut imports from South
america and the orient to release ships
for transporting troops and supplies
