,yUGO,SLAVS DESIRE
U. S. Army SERVICE
Ask Senate's Aid in Escaping Alien
Enemy Ban.

Jugo-Slavs in this country would
furnish 100000 to 100000 men to
the national army. if the ban of
alien-enemyship were removed
from them, two Of their representa-
tives told the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations yesterday. The
representatives, Don Niko Gresko-
vich. and John J. Grurevich, said
that $4,000 of their race would en-
list at once.
AS the Jugo-Slavs are technically
subjects of Austria Hungary, they
are included as alien enemies, but
they assert they are opposed to
Teuton rule.
Greskovich and Grurevich asked
for legislation to change their
status. They said that removal
of the ban would have a great moral
effect on the situation on the
Italian front. Great numbers of
Jugo-Slavs are now forced to fight
in the Austro-Hungarian ranks.
The Foreign Relations Committee
took the matter under advisement,
and may introduce legislation to
alter the present status of the Jugo-
Slavs in this country.

REVENUE BILL

NO PROTEST.
Witnesses Before Ways and

Totally Lacking.

II some one will obligingIy step
forward as witness, the House

ready TO begin hearings on the new
revenue bill
But the meeting scheduled for
today was postponed last night,
Hartman Kitchin announcing that
no one was ready to go on. Under
usual circumstances, said Kitchin.
there should be 500 or 500 persons
and concerns pushing each other
for an opportunity to show that the
tax bill. insofar as it related to
their particular business or in
come. was grossly inequitable and

Warning Effective.
Kitchin attributed the lack Of
witnesses to President Wilson's
warning in his revenue bill mes
sage to Congress that the man who
sought to evade his share of the
lax burden would have explana-
ions to make as TO his patriotism.
In his long experience as a tax
iraughtsman, Kitchin can remem-
1er no instance where a proposed
revenue bill failed to draw agents,
obbyists and attorneys by the hun
lred to the Capitol and committee
oOms.

nave applied for hearings before the

From Portland Yards

the establishment OF world record
when the G.. M. Standifer Snipbuilding
company launched six merchant ships.
The six ships, totalling nearly 10000
tons, were launched at ninety minute
intervals
Sehwab and Charles Piez, vice pres
ident of the Emergency Fleet Corpo-
tion promised that every capable wood
ship builder in the Oregon district will
continue to work at capacity for the
duration Of the war.
g am proud toi know that this dis
trict holds the wood ship production
record, " said Sehwab. care You going
TO keep it
He said Oregon builders are not now
getting steel enough for four ships per
way per year, "but we hope to have
tho material coming IN such quantities
at once" He said fuel is the basis
for delay in shipping steel, and trans
porration shortage is the basis for the
fuel shortage.
"We want sixty day ships from
these yards" he said. "They will
solve our problems on the seas Our
steel mills, / will admit, are mighty
close to their capacity output right
now"
