any of those advocating forcible inter
yention in the internal AFFAIRS OF for
eign people have taken into consfdera-
tion the views on this subject OF the
Russian people themselves" and say
! "any Intervention will meet with a
feeling of deep resentment"
Protest by Tchitcherin.
MOSCOW. Saturday. April e.-The
Japanese landing at V1adivostok has
created great excitement in Moscow
M. Tchitcherin, the acting commits
sioner of foreign affairs. summoned the
French, British and American diplo-
matte representatives to the foreign
Office for a conference. Raymond Rob.
ins, head Of the permanent American
Red Cross mission to Russia, attended
unoficially. Consul Grenard acted fol
France and r. Lockhart Of the British
embassy for Great Britain.
M. Tchitcherin made an emphatic pro.
test against the entry Of foreign troops
into Russia, and expressed regret tina,
the entente permitted such action. He
| said the only solution was the immedi-
ate withdrawal of the troops.
Although without official advices from
their governments concerning the stu.
alton at vladivostok. the representa-.
tives Of the three countries expressed
the opinion that the situation was pure
ly local one, requiring temporary
policing. and not a general movement
OF allied troops into Siberia, as the
commissioners seemed to believe. All
three gave it as their opinion that the
incident might be settled satisfactorily
at an early date.
The Russian papers Of all parties gen.
orally express fear that the vladivos-
tok movement is the first step in the
Japanese occupation of Siberia.

The Siberian central executive of the
workmen's and soldiers deputies imme-
diately organized a red army to resist
the landing Of forces az unwarranted
interference, not justified by the in
significant incident at Vladivostok.

FIVE NEW YARDS TO BUILD
CONCRETE CRAFT PROPOSED
Ship Board Asks $500000o0 Provision to
Establish Three in South, Two on
Pacific, and for Construction.

Establishment Of two new shipyards
on the Pacific coast and three IN the
south is proposed by Chairman Hurley
of the United States Shipping Board,
and Mr.. Hurley today presented to Con-
gress the boards request for an appro-
priation Of s5o,ooo.oo additional. for
the acquisition of sites and construc-
ton of the new yards and the building
Of ships.
Concrete ships are to be constructed
at these new yards, locations OF which,
1t is stated, already have been chosen
Announcement of the sites, it is stated,
will be made shortly. 1t is intimated
that one Of the southern shipyards, un-
der the new plan, will be the one al
ready planned for Wilmington, N. c.
Adequate transportation facilities
and easy access to cement and sand, 1t
Is stated. will govern the selection OF
sites.
Need More Oil Carriers.
The first concrete ships to be turned
out will be 7,5O0-ton tankers, 1t is stat
ed because of the shortage of oil car
riers, and because, in the present stage
of concrete ship development. the board
Is more confident Of success with the
tankers than with general cargo craft.
AS yet concrete ships are admitted
frankly by experts to be "a gamble,
because the behavior of such vessel
under load in a heavy sea is unknown.
Success in the experiment Is not guar
anteed, but Mr.. Hurley and General
Manager Piex Of the Emergency Fleet

Each Yard Costs $25, 900.

The s50,00o,000 requested will be
spent almost entirely for ships, as each
yard can be built for perhaps $25, ,0OO.
The yards will have from four to

crete pouring. 1t was said authorita-

Loyal to Both the State
and the Nation.

Every Colorado citizen has the
opportunity today to show his 10y
atty to the state in practical and
useful way by the purchase of more
homegrown and homemade prod
ucts. Loyalty to the state means
also loyalty to the nation; help to
the state menas help for the ma
tiOn. The two go hand in hand
and the purchase of more Colorado
prducts by COloradO's people is
truly a war necessity.
Viewing it as a war need of great
Importance. the State Council of
Defense has called upon all county
councils of defense to organize spe-
cial committees to increase the con-
sumption of home products. They
will soon be given lists of home
products, agricultural and manu-
factured, that can be bought by
the states consumers. A constant
campaign on the subject will be
maintained under the direction of
a committee headed by c. A. Ken

committee of the State Cuncil. OF

The purchase of one more pound
of home products day by every
