THERE'S A SCORE Of very best reasons
L why homekeepers should now buy
rugs for present and future use. But the
chiefest of ali reasons are: Quality and
Price. It is not that the manufacturers
would not gladly duplicatethe former high
standards of quality Of their rugs, but
that the woods and dyes in sufficient
quantities are not obtainable, That worlds
wool crops are for soldiers uniforms and
blankets and for civilians clothing and
bed coverings. Rightfully so. The rug
making industry must take what IS as
signed it. Fortunately, this store ap-

viii ENLARGE Plant.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-The Mid
vale Steel Co will make an extension
on its plant near Philadelphia under
its agreement with the government
to provide greatly increased facil-
tiles for ordnance production. While
the war department will make no
announcement at this time, it was
learned today that this is the plan
instead of selecting new site as
was done in the case of the United
States Steel company ordinance plant
lat Neville island, near Pittsburgh.
The scope of the Midyale exten-
sion is not revealed, but it is under
stood the plan may be an additional
plant and will run into hundreds of
thousands OF dollars and greatly i'm

copper that the submarine could carry
was removed to the u boat. This
transfer took almost two days. Dur
ing that time the u boat and its cap
tive lay off the coast, while the
sailors OF the captured vessels were
! forced to help the Germans work at
looting the ship.
The captain OF the vindeggen as
serted that seventy tons OF copper
were taken aboard the submarine.
Port authorities thought this figure
was high, but it was pointed out that
the merchant submarine Deutschland,
| if converted into a fighting U boat,
which has been reported, could take
aboard very heavy cargo.
/ While the looting was going on the
steamer was kept in tow. 1t was
| thought. today this might explain the
story that submarine with moth
err ship" had been seen off the coast.
Most OF the time they.lAy seventy-five
miles off American shores.
On Monday morning at ten o'clock
the Hendrix Lund, bound from Nor
folk, Va, to New York. was sighted
and hailed. It's captain was ordered
aboard the submarine with his papers.

their life boats. Another steamer was
sighted just at that time, and the
Germans shouted for the sailors to
make haste. The life boats were
turned adrift, both ships were de-
| stroyed with bombs and the subma-
rine departed in pursuit of the newly
discovered steamer. The life boats
were found and their occupants res
cued by New York bosnd steamer
[ the same day.
1t was suggested here that the sub
marine was making final clean up"
before departing for Germany. Off
Gals believe that spies may have ap-
prised the q boat commander that
/, the Vindeggen was coming up the
coast with its copper cargo
The Vindeggen was a steel steamer
of 3;179 tons. owned by Jens Folk
mans, of Skien. Norway. She was
built in Japan, in 1916.
The Hendrix Lund was a steel
steamer of 1922 tons owned by w.
Gilbert of Bergen, Norway. She was
built in England in 1916.
