WASHINGTON. March 15.-Pres-
ident Wilson today discussed the
general ship building situation with
Senator Fletcher of Florida. chair
man of the senate commerce COM
mittee, and Senator Ransdell, o.
Louisiana, a member of the commit
zee. The conference was under
stood to have been the first OF
series which the President plans
to hold with members of the com
mittee which has been investigat-
ing the shipping situation for many
weeks.
After listening to the results of
the senate committee inquiry, the
president was said to have express
ed satisfaction at the outlook at the
present time and agreed with Sena-
tor Fletcher that the nation should
produce from three to four million
tons of shipping of all kinds this
year.
Mr.. Wilson was understood to
have expressed particular satisfac-
ton in the reinforced concrete ship
launched yesterday on the Pacific
coast and desires that the vessel
be given a thorough trial because
of the short time in which this
class of craft can be turned out.
Senator Fletcher told the presi-
dent that ship a day is being
launched now and that all indica-
tions pointed TO two launchings

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. Tuesday, March u. (By the
A. P)-After weeks of rain. snow,
wind and murky weather there came
to the American front today its. first
bath of genial spring sunshine.
The skies were elOudless and m the
moderate temperature that prevailed
sweaters were discarded by the men
for the first time since last summer.
while in the villages where they are
billeted and in the cantOnments in the
training area, the camps were decorate
ed With rolls of bedding being given
an airing. Men and horses basked in
the sunshine in the streets and on the
hillsides-a grateful experience after
the winter damp chill.
Everywhere one could see equip
ment hung out 10 dry, tent flaps and
nut windows open, and hospital pa
tients breathing the sweet spring air
Meanwhile, the transport work was
being expedited by the rapidly drying
roads.
In the training areas, the fullest ad-
vantage was taken of the open wealth
er, the officers crowding the men to
willingly renewed efforts to make
them fit for front line service.
Under the sunshine and the still at
mOsphere airdromes all along the line
sprouted flocks of planes, both on trial
and or serious missions, and every
Were there was expectant readiness
for an enemy offensive if il should de-
velop
The troops both on the front and in
the training areas are on the tip toe of
expectation for the arrival of Secreta-
ry of War Baker. the presence OF
whom in France was announced in the
Paris morning newspapers and took
the whole army by surprise Word OF
the secretary'S presence in France wa5
spread rapidly by telephone from the
bases to the furthermost ortposts. OF.
ficers in villages at outlying points
stopped the newspaper motors .and
asked for definite word when Mr. Bak.
er would arrive
''The old man will find US ready to
pass inspection" it was said.
In army circles there is a general
qualification over the coming of Mr.
Baker in order that he may see a.,
close hand what has. been accomplish
ed thus far in the face of obstacles and
the difficulties Of distance especially
the morale and physical condition of
the troops so that he may carry home
a personal knowledge of easily rene
died deficiencies and complaints.
The most serious of the deficiencies
and complaints surround the army
mail service. Everywhere the rank
and file complain of the absence of the
great delay in mail from home. CON-
pany officers generally say the mail
problem is one of the most serious
they have to contend with. because
the men become lonely and anxious
in the absence of word from their fam
lilies. The ordinary mails are from Ole
month TO six weeks ahead of the army
mails. and the officers express the be-
lief that there viii be no better factor
for the happiness of the men than the
most expeditions mail service II is pos
sible to devise-even a faster service
than through the ordinary civilian
channels.

that America and the allies expect

RATE INCREASES

WASHINGTON, March 10. - \
general increase of about 10 per
cent in commodity rates was grant
ed today by the interstate com
merce commission to railroads east
of the Mississippi and north OF the
Ohio and Potomac rivers, supple
menting a similar increase allowed
last June in class rates. The order
applies only 10 articles shipped IN
large quantities such as coal, brick,
grain, foodstuffs, oil, stone, cement,
lumber and other staple products
shipped under the commodity
classification. The new rates VIII
go into effect as soon as railroads

few weeks.
The action will ada about $751;

roads. although it will not actually
increase their earnings, since the
sum will revert to the government
