Shipping Board Head De.
clares They Will Then

Speaks i'm Chicago
Manufacturers Are Told to
Learn to Think in World
Market Terms

CHICAGO, June %. - Edward NJ
Hurley, chairman of the United States
Shipping Board. emphasized in two ad-
dresses here to-day the permanent
benefit that the United States will de-
rive from the shipbuilding programme
now under way The programme, ne
explained, was unlimited, as whatever
the tonnage may be. we will build
enough ships to win the war" The
United States, he declared, was build
ing ships as Rome built roads, pri-
marily for military purposes, but ulti-
mately ITO withstand the traffic of
the ages"
In the afternoon Mr.. Hurley spoke
before the Illinois Manufacturers As
ito think in terms cf world markets" !"
that they might be ready to move for.
ward when peace cleared the Roman
road" of the seas for them. His ad-
dress this evening was delivered be-
fore the National Security League,
where he said that the nation must
learn>to use its shipping as it would
use new railroad.
He told the manufacturers that only
their cooperation had enabled the
Shipping Board to solve the thousands
OF problems connected with the estab-
ilshment almost overnight of ship
building industry, as a preliminary to
quantity production of shipping. Their
energy, he said, expressed even in in
land shops and factories, was what
was sending ships down the ways at
the rate of one or two day. Upon
their breadth Of view, he continued, de-
pended to large extent the utiliza-
tion of that shipping when peace came.
"The more vigorously we fight the
war" he said, "the more tonnage we
shall have at our disposal when peace
is declared. l believe that wise fore
sight now in utilizing this tonnage
after the war to develop our world
in other countries, particularly in the
smaller and younger nations, will be a
direct help to the winning of the war.
"The refrigerator ship that takes
beef and pork to our Allies to-day will
tomorrow be available for California
and Florida oranges, Oregon and New
York apples, corn belt butter, eggs and
cheese, and other perishable products,
helping us to develop trade in South
America, the Pacific and the Orient.
The troop ship of to-day will be a
Latin-American, South African or Aus
tralian passenger and cargo carrier to-
morrow, bringing our customers from
those countries to the market and TAX
ing their purchases to their doors.
"But ships will be of little use unless
the American business man has learned
to think in terms Of ships and world
trade. He must learn to regard the
whole world as his market. This will
mean more than selling factory goods
to foreign customers. Foreign coun-
tries have raw materials and finished
products to exchange with us. He
must learn to swap jackknives with
out trying to keep both knives. The
American banker must carry our money
when we make sales or purchases
abroad. The American manufacturer
must run his factory with view to
utilizing the raw materials of other
countries, thus aiding in their de-
velopment. We must learn to develop

100000 Men Now
Neutrals to Lose Rights to
Citizenship if They
Claim Exemption

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Immediate

vas overwhelmingly defeated to-day in
the Senate. The amendment proposed

$4,000. 100000 army appropriation bill

years, and all compromises suggested
fer difFeren. minimums and maximums
were voted down.
Settlement of the controversy. which
has held Senate attention for several
Gays, cleared the way for passage of
the huge appropriation measure. prob
ably tomorrow.
Besides disposing of the draft age
question the Senate adopted several
important amendments to the bill One

To Change Quota System
Other amendments accented authorize
the new plan of basing draft quotas
on the number of men in Glass /. in
stead of upon state populations and
affecting rights of neutrals under the
draft law. The Senate previous had
adopted the draft quota legislation. hut
1t has been held up in the House.
Inc amendment affecting neutrals
provides that citizens of neutral conn
tries now subject to draft who have
declared their intention of becoming
American citizens shall not be eligible
for citizenship if they claim exemption
from the draft. This provision, offered
by Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska was
adopted as substitute for an amend
ment approved by the State Depart
ment providing for exemption from the
tries.
The question of extending the draft
age limits occupied almost all Of the
Senate session. A proposal by Senator
Hardwlck, of Georgia, that the present
minimum age limit of twenty-one
years be substituted for the twentv-vear
minimum of the Fall amendment was
rejected, Al to 33, as was one by SEN
