Will Be Used by Federal
Departments Wherever
Possible
Praises the Work Done
President Declares Organiza.
tions Can Be of Great
Aid to Nation

ALBANY, Aug. Ex-Governor Whit
man, chairman of the State Defence
Council, announced to-day that the
scope of work undertaken by the State
Defence Council probably will be broad
ened soon, the President having ap-
proved a suggestion of the Secretary
OF War that Federal departments here
after utilize the State Defence councils
wherever possible rather than extend
ing their own organization.
The Governor gave out copies of
correspondence between the Secretary
of War and the President, in which the
President asked the Secretary of War
to express his appreciation to the State
Defence councils for the work they
have performed.
New York's Good Work
The New York State Defence Coun-
Gil is one of the most thoroughly
organized in the country, having been
extended into every community through
the formation of what are known as
community councils, and this feature
of the states war organization called
forth specific praise from the Prcsi-
dent, who said:
II am particularly struck by the
value of extending our defence organi-
cation into the smallest communities
and by the truly democratic character
OF national system SO organized"
The Secretary of War, in his repor.
to the President detailing the work
of the State Defence councils, said that
these organizations are "now in a spe-
cial sense the guardians of civilian
morale IN each state, carrying on a
work of education and information
which we look to see continued and
strengthened, in order that the will to
win and the knowledge of how to make
that will effective may be everybody
possession throughout the war, in the
dark hours of trial as we'll as in the
hour of victory"
Presidents Reply
In his answer the President said:
~ have read with great interest YOUR
account of the achievements of the
State Councils of Defence and your
general summary of the activities in
which they are now engaged. 1t is a
notable record, and l shall be glad to
have you express to the state coun-
ellis my appreciation of the service thew
have SO usefully rendered.
~ believe in the soundness of your
contention that in the interest of econ
omy and efficiency such machinery as
that provided by the State Council sys-
tenn for the execution of many kinds

Electrifcation of
All Railroads Is
Favored by McAdoo
(SpeciM Dispatch to The Tr;bune,

\CpeCp* ALSpUtCn 10 Inc ITtbune)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Director
General of Railroads McAdoo. on his
return to Washington after a two
months tour of the West to-day ex-
pressed the opinion that the great I'M
used water power facilities of the
country ought to be developed to sup
ply current for a national electrical
ton of the railroads. This programme
would be recommended to Congress
Mr.. McAdoo strongly intmated, if Gov
eminent control of the railroads con-
tinues for any considerable period.
Director General McAdoo holds the
opinion that there is sufficient unused
water power in the country to operate
the entire national railroad system if
it is coupled with the developed water
properties, now operated largely by
public service corporations.
Electrifcation of the roads, Mr.. Nc
Adoo pointed out, would mean the elm
nation of the major burden now i'm
posed on the railroads, i. e., the ire
mendous coal haul. In addition, it
would release to other more essential
uses the great labor army now engaged
in mining and handling this fuel. Fin
ally, it would conserve the fuel re-
sources of the country for use in sec
tons where water developed electric
ity is unavailable.
While the Director General would
make no prediction of early action
looking toward large scale electric
cation of the roads, it is nsdered
possible that the railroad administra-
ton will commence experiments with
electrifcation at an early date in.ssec-
tons where developed water ro~er
may be used to advantage.

of war work should be utilized as far
as possible by Federal departments

therefore, that you communicate to the
heads of all such departments and ad-
mlnistrations my wish that when they
are considering extensions of their
organization into the states, or new
work to be done in the states, they
determine carefully whether they can
not utilize the State Council system,
thus rendering unnecessary the crea-
ton of new machinery, and that they
transmit all requests for action by the
state councils through the state coun-

Findings of Hughes Inquiry
To Be Made to President
This Month
Extravaganza Exposed
Mistakes, Delays and Possibly
Misuse of Funds To Be
Indicated
lc.i.,1 nisnntch to The Tribunal

/Cp,riII UtSputcH 10 4 ne 1TIOHUSJ
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 12.-
c-oss extravaganza in plants making
.;rcraft. alleged syndicate agreements.
much waste of materials and possibly
m;suse of funds will be shown in the
..nort of the Hughes investigating
,ommittee. which will be made this
month.
Judge Hughes will return to Wash
;ngton tomorrow to begin the hearing
NJ final testimony in the investigation.
Attorney General Gregory and w. L.
Frierson, special assistant Attorney
General aiding Judge Hughes in the
Investigation, returned to Washington
to-day from Buffalo, where they have
been making personal inquiries about
aircraft production at the Curtiss
plant.
The report, which will be made to
the President, will be complete in
every detail. 1t will deal comprehen-
siyely with the question of delays, mis-
takes of judgment and shortcomings
of individual companies and plants,
and NAV be the basis of criminal prose-
cutions.
Report Due Soon
Asked to-day when the report would
be forthcoming, a Department of JUS
cation made this significant reply:
1.-THE fellows that have been making
aircraft have made many promises yet
untitled and l am not going to put my
self in the same hole by advance no.
tees on when the report will be made
We are beginning to see daylight now
and the report will be forthcoming
Just as quickly as we have gathered
odd ends together"
Just what action the Hughes report
will suggest is not yet clear. The Bu-
reau of Investigation has been running
down considerable evidence adduced by
the Hughes board, but thus far no
announcement has ben made positively
outlining the irregularities that have
been found While it is expected that
certain members of the Signal Corps
Of the army will be pointed to as
countenarcing gross extravaganza, ;"
whether this loose business method will
constitute actual culpability has not
been determined.
Army Not Wholly to Blame
All the blame for the blunders and
delays which caused the investigation
by the Hughes committee will not be
laid at the door of the army or7cers in
volved in producing airplanes The fact
that the committee prolonged It's stay In
Buffalo for week over the period ex-
pected to be necessary to complete the
inquiry there was pointed to to-day as
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-08-13

indicating that much evidence of waste
and delays was found there.
The report of Senate Aircraft Com
mittee, which will not deal with any
criminal features of the situation, will
be made this week.
The report is expected to disclose
many OF the weaknesses in the pro-
ouctlon field. in evidence that deaths
o, several aviators were traced to me-
chanlcai defects in machines used at
some of the flying fields.
