bv Frances Marion from William D.
Locke's novel, "Stella Maris," and pro-
duced by Marshall Neilan, whose mas
terly direction of Miss Pickfords last
two successes, "Rebecca of Sunny
brook Farm" and "The Little Prln-
cess" caused much favorable COM
ment. Miss Pickford plays the role
of Stella Maris and of Unity Blake
two entirely different parts, each
carrying a powerful appeal. The
characters surrounding the Aircraft
star in the production have been es-
pecially we'll chosen. Conway Tearle,
who has maintained notable reputa-
ton on the stage and in films for
some years, was engaged to go to the
West Coast studio of Aircraft to play
the role of John Risca, English jour-
nalist and gentleman, who proves an
ideal selection for the leading sup.
porting role.

 "A stacker in our shipyards is as shameful a creature as a coward in the army in France, and Q good work CT in the shipyards stands honorably forward like a good soldier in the army. I have come to NeWbugh largely because my inquiries have convinced me that here there has been no organized limitation of output and practically no loafing. I am convinced that, generally speaking, there is fine spirit of patriotism in shipbuild- ing labor in all parts of the country.
 Yet it has been alleged to me that in certain yards men have loafed in- dividually and that in certain yards unions have actually limited the out put so as to limit the number of rivets driven in day, or to limit the num- Der of days that they work or in other ways to prevent tho development of our full strength and our utmost speed. Such men are traitors to the country.

GEN. WOOD TO
CARRY FIGHT
TO PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON, d. c. May %.
That Major General Wood will
carry his fight for service abroad
directly to President Wilson was
indicated today when 1t was learn
ed at the White House that Wood
would see the president at 6
o'clock tonight.
Woods appointment with the
president was arranged by Secre-
tary of War Baker. This led to
the general belief here that Wood
asked permission to lay his case
before the president after the war
department had changed its plans
and moved him from the leader
ship of his division in France to
command of the western depart
ment at San Francisco.
The government change in plans
switching Major General Wood
from expected service in France
to command the western depart
ment-promises to make Wood
once more a storm center.
His friends, both in the army
and in political life, today ex-
pressed resentment that Wood
should apparently have been side
tracked.
Wood was relieved of his COM
mand as chief of the Eighty-ninth
division, national army, virtually
on the eve of the division s SER
vice in France. No reason for the
change is given at the war de-
partment.

Charles Piez, vice president of

today advised Senator Jones that
the shipping board housing de-
payment has allotted $4,000 to
aid in housing ship-builders in Ia
coma.
A corporation probably will be
formed to handle the money, the
government loaning to that corpo-
ration. So far no allotments have
been considered for other Puget
sound cities.
The navy, out OF an other appro-
priation, may finance thru the
housing department of the depart
ment Of labor, a similar scheme
for Bremerton.
All members of the Washington
delegation in congress today join

of the shipping board, urging him
that, IL the boards decision to
build its five concrete shipyards
elsewhere than on Puget sound is
irrevocable, 1t revise its plans and
build six yards and place the sixth

A destroyer is not like a big
ship where certain men have GER
tain sections to take care of. On
a small boat like destroyer
everybody has to be able to do
everything. We used to take fell
lows on board and if they didn't
get on to the job quick we would
get somebody else who could. 1t
is as tough working on a de-
stroyer as fighting in the
trenches.
We have bigger crews in war;
time. Now we have to have more
men standing watch on the
fo'castle, the bridge, on the stern,
up in each masthead. at the tubes
and at the eyes of the ship.
There is no special method of
conveying a ship. Sometimes we
may be right alongside of it and
at other times a mile away. The
destroyer commanders use their
own judgment. Everything de-
ponds upon weather and other
conditions.
AS soon as a destroyer takes a
ship under convoy the destroyer
is responsible for its safety. 1t is
a pretty big responsibility, espe-
cially if you have transports with
a few thousand men on board
thousands of good American SOL
diers. Then l can tell you we all
keep on the watch whether We are
on duty or not. 1t is the big
pride of the American flotilla
that it has never lost a troop
ship yet. 1t is a fine record. No
body else can say that.

The retreating Germans were
taking an American prisoner with

leaped from the trenches, caught

The second assault before Fon-

The counter attack then carried
the Americans into the boches'
