HURLEY AsNs F0R FINAL APPROPRIATION
 T0 WIND UP SHIPByILDING OPERATIONS


 WASHINGTON, June S-Chairman Hurley of the shipping board has asked congress for final appropriation of a little more, than $500, 100000, to wind up the governments shipbuildins operations.
 This sum. he says, which will com Dlete the work of raising the United States as a shipbuilding nation to first place, and develop the American mer- cantile marine fleet from a negligible quantity to second place, actually is S400. 0Ge 600 less than congress already has authorized
 The present needs of the shipbuild- ing program. as Chairman Hurley out lines them, take into consideration the cancellation CT suspension of contracts for 754 ships, which alone will effect Q saving of more than s594.000,000
 The administration charges of the whole business will be only 1.92 per cent of the total final expenditures.
 When all is done Chairman Hurley points out in a letter to Chairman Good, of the house appropriations com mittee, S2.S61.755,510 will have been expended in the couutry's great effort which will be shown in l3SS5,10 dead weight tons of ships on the seas.
 Although cost of S206 a deadweight ton is indicated. the actual cost to the government will be less, for the reason he outlines as follows:
 Some shipbuilders have paid into the United States treasury income and ex- cess profits taxes, aggregating $40 a deadwejght ton on the vessels they have constructed. Others rave paid the equivalent of s21 ton. It is estimated that al ieast S25 deadweight ton has been returned to the treasury in this manner by all shipbuilders. This S25 does not include any taxes paid by the hundreds Of fsub-cOntractors who man tiactured the steel the boilers the ma c7inery and the many other things T- -ict go into the ships; but whep null dplfed by i5.SS5.i06 deadweight tons |

SAYS RAILROADS n
 REPAY HUGE SUMS

WASHINGTON, June S.-Railroads under federal control should be re- Quired to return to the government. "as rapidly as practicable s775, ,000.O 900 ad- Vanced for improvements and equip ments, Director General Hines told the house appropriations committee at his appearance last week, according to the printed record of hearings which be- came public today.
 These improvements have been made for the benefit of the railroad companies the director general said. They nave received a very important benefit from government control, guar antee of a rental which represented the average of probably the best three years they ever had, instead of having to face. as public utilities throughout the country did. the danger of immi- nent bankruptcy on account of the great increases in cost.
 When the railroad administration has put in funds with which to pay the railroad companies what it owes them. my judgment is that they ought to be required, just as rapidly as possible. to reimburse the government for these large amounts that have been spent and as far as possible to reimburse tho government for the amounts which will be spent during the rest of this calen- dar year.
 Our settled policy is that for the fu- turc we will make no improvements on railroad properties unless the railroads undertake to finance them, except in extreme cases, where an improvement is absolutely necessary and where the companies are wholly unable to fi- nance it.
