Ambassador Francis Says
Landing of British and
Japs not by Agreement.

Washington, April 16.-1n giving
out today the text Of a statement
made at Vologda by Ambassador
Francis the state department made it
clear that the landing of japanese
and British forces at Vladivostok was
not in pursuance of any international
agreement but merely was for the
purpose Of protecting Japanese and
British interests.
The ambassadors statement, which
was issued on April 10, said that no
Americans had been landed. 1t was
given out by the state department in
denial Of reports that Mr.. Francis
had declared the incident was due to
an agreement.
Officials now are convinced that
the report from Hardin of a landing
was started by refugees from Vladivo-
stok who perhaps saw a party Of
American marines on shore leave or q
quartermasters corps detachment
ashore.
City Reported Calm.
Toxic, Wednesday, April 10.-(By

PLAN TO MAKE
SAFER ALL u. S.
CARGO VESSELS

Washington, April 16.-Plans to
double the number Of compartments
in all cargo ships Of American reg
istry which are now engaged in trans
Atlantic service and in vessels under
construction have been approved by
naval constructor. and will be put. in
to effect at nee by the United States
shipping board. ~.
Exclusive of neutral tonnage and
ships of private registry, the govern
ment now has 1922 ships in the over
sea- service. 1t is believed that the
new plan. will reduce by approximate
.ly SO per cent the danger of these
vessels sinking if struck by a torpedo.
1t is not probable that the neutral
shipping in transatlantic trade under
control Of this government will be so
equipped, at least until the experi-
ment has been made on the Ameri-
'can-owned fleet.
James c. Stewart Of New York has
been selected by Chairman Hurley Of
the shipping board as head Of the di-
vision which will nave charge Of the
work.
1t is believed that the changes can
be made without seriously delaying
than 5000 tons Of cargo space will be
lost to the entire fleet Of 1922 vessels.
The ordinary 5,00o-ton ship now
has four Compartments, and the plan
is to double the number by the use Of
steel and wood construction, which
can be put in while the vessels are
afloat.
Barges equipped with all machinery
and materials will be obtained and
trained mechanics will get to work as
soon as the ships begin to unload
their cargoes. It is believed that the
unloading Of cargo and the construc-
ton work necessary to double the
number Of compartments a be car
ried on simultaneously, thus avoiding
long delay.
