SEES COMPENSATION
FOR CANCELLATIONS
Outerbridge Reports Senate
Military Committee Favors
Pending Bill.

THE War Department and the SEN
ate Committee on Military Affairs arc
in full sympathy with the movement
for obtaining legislation which will
bring about immediate relief to 50,-
900 manufacturers who have had
war contracts cancelled" said E.
II. Outerbridge, chairman OF the
committee on foreign trade and
shipping after the war of the
Chamber of Commerce OF the State OF
New York, on his return from Wash
ington yesterday. where he conferred
with Secretary of War Baker. Sena-
tors Hitchcock, Freylinghuysen and
Mcclellan, members Of the Military AZ
fairs Committee, and Major Gen. Goe-
thals, director Of purchases of the
army.
"A bill has just been introduced In
the Senate and House." Mr.. Outer
bridge declared, which will establish
new machinery for the handling Of
claims of manufacturers, arising out
of the cancellation Of war contracts
and will avert, If passed, all of the
hardship and suffering that were
caused the business interests OF the
United States following the civil war.
Some claims filed at the close OF the
civil war against the Government have
not yet been settled.
This new bill authorizes the Presi-
dent to create and appoint one or more
boards of regional examiners to serve
In districts throughout the country to
investigate and determine facts con-
corning claims, legal or equitable,
against the Government due to the
cancellation Of war contracts. These
regional boards OF examiners shall
consist OF business men nominated by
chambers OF commerce, boards OF
trade, merchants associations or SINH
lar bodies within the districts respec-
lively to which they shall be assigned
The members Of these boards will re-
ceive no compensation, except such
per diem compensation as the Presi-
dent may fix.
secretary Of War Baker, Gen. Goe-
thals and the Senators with whom l
discussed the bill are in favor of do
ing Justice to the manufacturers who
acted In good faith. and the mere tech
meal omission to conform with some
OF the requirements Of the statutes,
they said, would not stand in the way
Of absolute fairness to tho business
interests"

The Commissioner further suggests
the construction of four piers on the
Brooklyn waterfront between Sixty
sixth street and Bay Ridge avenue.
This is on land formerly under the
jurisdiction Of the Department of
Parks but now taken over by the
Sinking Fund Commission. There is
a question as to whether 1t can be
used for other than park purposes
without specific authorization of the
Legislature.
Commissioner Hubert also seeks to
put the board on record in regard to
his plan for building three new piers
in the North River between Battery
place and Rector street

HUBERT SUBMITS
NEW HARBOR PLAN
Offers "Concrete Programme"
for Which Board Of Esti-
mate Asked.
MUCH LIKE PREVIOUS ONE
Commissioner Seeks to Put
Board on Record on Gen
eral Policy.

Dock Commissioner Hubert again
has submitted to the Board OF Esti-
mate and the Sinking Fund Commits
sion a programme for improvements
to the Port Of New York. 1t is in
great measure {epetition Of the pro-
gramme presented to Comptroller Craig
as chairman OF the Committee on Port
and Terminal Of the Board Of Esti-
mate some time ago. but is q reply to
the plants OF other members Of the
board that they wanted to have some
concrete plan before them on which
they would be only too glad to act
The programme in the letter which
was sent yesterday is divided roughly
into the following classes:
1-Unification and application
Of the handling of commerce on
the piers Of the New York water
front.
2-Transfer Of the Sound steam
ers from the North to the East
River.
8-Repairs to existing piers and
more profitable utilization Of the
same.
+construct,on Of additional
piers.
Asks Specific Suggestions.
After discussing the first two points
| the Commissioner asks: May in
20
in these views and has any specific
suggestions to offer with a view to
carrying the same into effect?"
In regard to repairs Of existing piers
the Compissioner states:
There are piers on the East River
that are IN a most dilapidated condi-
ton, seriously affecting the assessed
valuation OF neighboring property.
| They could be improved at a compare
lively small expense to the city"
May I inquire If your honorable
board will approve my undertaking to
make the foregoing improvements"
asks the Commissioner after detailing
the piers he wishes to improve and
stating the cost.
| The commissioner also seeks 10 put
the Board of Estimate on record in
regard TO his suggestions of the con-
struction of new piers.
| IT beg to inquire" he writes, III
your honorable board approves OF this
department proceeding to negotiate
with prospective tenants with a view
to acquiring the necessary property
and constructing piers in accordance
with the new plan, II and when
adopted, on a rental basis for such a
term of years at not less than IN
per cent. OF the cost Of construction,
as will discharge the obligation so
created at the end of said term OF
years."
