ORDER SLASHINC
OF OCEAN RATES
Shipping Board Reduces
Freight Charges to All
Parts of World.

Reduction in ocean freight rates 10
all parts OF the world, effective for
tho months Of January and February,
have been ordered by the United
States Shipping Board.
Rates TO the Far East are reduced
from 10 TO IS is per cent; ts South
American ports IL 10 S per cent, and
10 Australian and African ports 10
p per cent under prevailing Amert-
can rates.
The board has had the question OF
ocean rates under consideration for
some time. Recently considerable
pressure has been brought TO bear by
exporters who saw possibilities OF
American foreign trade slipping away
because OF the prevailing high ocean
rates.
Secretary OF Commerce Redfeld
brought the situation to an issue the
other day when he cabled Chairman
Hurley, pointing out the necessity to
American trade OF lower trans-Pacihc
rates.
The new schedule for ocean Tonnage
from New York follows.

ONLY SO EAGLE
BOATS REQUIRED
Navy Department Cuts
Down Original Contract
for III Vessels.

Contracts for eagle boats which the
Navy Department made with Ford
have been reduced from 1l2 to sixty.
according to statements made yester-
day by Secretary Of the Navy Daniels.
1t is stated by the navy experts that
the government will have ample use
in southern waters for the sixty pro-
posed vessels. Seven of them have
been built. Three have been delivered
on the Atlantic coast and four of them
are tied up by the weather in Lake
Erie and the st. Lawrence.
Some of the navy officers say that
the Congressional criticism of the
eagle boat contracts was connected
with the political campaign of Ford
and NewbeTry, and is being urged
also by iron interests opposed to the
pig iron plant established by Ford,
and also to the rate of wages he pays
his employees.
The Navy Department has no au-
thOritative information as to
whether Henry Ford will forego any
profits on the building of the eagle
boats as was reported one time
would be the fact.
IT is stated by navy officials that
Mr.. Ford was under the impression
when he took the contract that he
could build an eagle boat for S275,-
600
Rear Admiral Taylor. chief of the
Bureau of Construction, in state
ments made before Congress held
that the vessels would cost ap-
proximateIy 100000 each and that
is in fact the cost.
Citizens VIII Oppose Raise.
The government invested $500 900 in
the plant where the eagle boats are
being built. When the contracts have
been finished there will be an appraise-
ment OF the plant, and the appraised
value will be returned to the Navy
Department.

United States can finish the job

$l00,000,000 AT ONCE
DEMANDED BY WILSON
FOR STARVING EUROPE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.
OF Austria, Turkey, Poland and Wes-
tern Russia In these countries free
dom and government will slowly
emerge from the chaos and require
our every assistance.
The total shipments of foodstuffs
from the United States to all parts
OF Europe during the next seven
months will be likely to exceed one
and ore-half billion dollars. and from
our abundance we can surely afford
TO offer succor to those countries des-
utute OF resources or credit.
sI0O,ooO.o 900 Not Enough.
The minimum sums upon which
this work can be carried on for the
next six months in the countries
above mentioned will amount to at
least tl0o0C0O00 for such services and
supplies as we can render. and even
this sum contemplates the finding Of
resources by so much of the popula-
ton as can do so and much assist
ance as can be given by the allied
governments. The high mission of
the American people to find a remedy
for starvation and absolute anarchy,
renders 1t necessary that we should
uHueIldhe the most lDeral assistance
to these destitute regions.
The situation is one of extreme
urgency. for foodsturrs must be
placed in certain localities within the
next fifteen to thirty days, IL human
life and order are 10 be preserved. !,
therefore, request that you ask
Congress to make available to me an
immediate appropriation of 500, 600 900
for the broad purpose OF providing
foodstuffs and other urgent supplies
for the transportation, distribution,
and administration thereof to such
populations in Europe, outside of
Germany. as may be determined upon
by me from time TO time as neces-
sary.
Il wish to appeal to the great
sense OF charity and good will of
the American people toward the suf-

fering, and to place this act upon a
primarily humanitarian basis of the
hrst magnitude. While the sum of
money is In itself large, 1t is so
small compared with the expendi-
lures We have undertaken in the
hope OF bettering the void. that II
becomes a mere pittance compared
TO the results that will be obtained
from 1t. and the lasting effect that
VIII remain in the United States
through an act of such broad hu-
manity and statesmanlike influence"
A special meeting of the Appro-
priations committee has been called
by Chairman sheriey for tomorrow
morning to conside a bill he will
prepare to carry out the Presidents 3
request. The bill will carry this
provision:
"For the purpose of providing
foodstuhs and other urgent supplies,
for transportation, distribution and
administration thereof to such popu-
lations in Europe, outside of Ger
many, as may be determined upon
by the President from time to time
as necessary, and for each and every
purpose connected Herewith in the
discretion of the President, $780,
100000 to be Immediately available
and to remain available until ex-
pended"
Food Experts Confer.
At the committees hearing yester-
day Acting Food Administrator f. V.
Ricard and Counsellor Glasgow. of
the Food Administration, discussed
for an hour the problem of relieving
the conditions outlined in the PresI =
dents cable. They said the situation
was extremely bad in Vienna, and
that starvation was general in
mania, Southern Russia and the
other Balkan states,
In response to questions by members
of the committee, it was brought out
that IL hunger is relieved the revolu-
tions in those countries will be
stopped. Starvation Is the real cause
OF the internal troubles, II was de-
clared.
Members of the committee and the
House were reluctant to discuss the
matter until they had had sufficient
time to study II, but the impression
bad as the President had pictured
and there was no inclination to take
a contrary view-the United States
should do whatever it could to extend
helping hand to the distressed peo-
pies.
Chairman Sherley will attempt TO
expedite the bill through the House.
Unanimous consent for its Considera-
ton will be sought or. IL necessary,
the Rules Committee will be asked for
a special rule to bring 1t up.
