USE FOR ALL SHIPS.

In spite of the large additions that have been made to the number of vessels under the control of the ship Ding board of this country it is evil dent that we are far from possessing as many ships as we need. This is to be noted from the statements to the effect that there is plenty of sugar in Cuba and shortage in this country due to the fact that it is impossible 10 get sufficient transportation facili- ties to bring the sweet stuff here. And again it has been disclosed that while we are paying abnormally high prices for coffee there is plenty to be had in Brazil at reasonable figures if we would only send the ships to bring it here. There are likewise other direc- ffDns in which we could use more ships if we had them.
 Director Rossiter of the shipping board operations has recently declared that the release of vessels that have been used by the war and navy de- partments and the food administration has been going on for several months at the rate of about a hundred month, and that merchant ships are being built under government con- tracts at such a rate that during the

MORE ooyERNMENr GOODS.

When the announcement is made to the effect that the war department is going to establish a chain of stores throughout the country from which supplies can be secured over the counter or by parcel post. 1t is plain ly recognized as an undertaking based upon the success attained in dispos- ing of the food supplies. Tn this chain of stores there will be offered to the public all kinds of daily necessaries, including socks underwear. raincoats, shirts, blankets, gloves. tobacco. soap and other household commodities and which of course represent the sur plus of these goods in the hands of the department at the conclusion of the war.
 Even though 1t has been announced that there would be no dumping of such supplies on the market because of the effect 1t would have upon the trade. it can be appreciated as the re- suit of the participation in the food sales that there is seen not only the chance to move the goods, but an op- portunity to permit the people to get the benefit of lowered prices and thus make a drive against the high cost of ifvirg.
 What has been done with the food supplies will unquestionably be done with the other goods. The people will recognize the advantage that is being offered thefn and act accordingly, and If this move serves to discourage any profiteering that is being indulged in go much the better. At any rate those -who provide the money for the pur- chase of the goods for the war are entitled to get the benefit of prices when they come to be disposed of and what goes into the national treasury in this way will not have to be col lected through the revenue depart tnert

AWAITING eoMPERs, VIEWS.

For considerable time now Samuel Gompers has been studying the labor situation in Europe Tn. view of the fact that he is at the head of the American Federation of Labor no lit tie significance is attached to his re- . turn to this country at this time when there is so much labor unrest, when strikes are being threatened, when the president has turned down the request of the railroad shopmen for increa sed wages and urged them 10 await readjustment through reduc- tf0n iii the cost Of living although to overcome inequalities an increase of Totir cents an hour is offered them at this time It is also at this time that the Plumb plan for taking over the r4ilroads of the country is being ad- sypcated.
 MT. Gompers has been besieEed on his return to express himself in re- gard to several Of these matters but he has carefully reffaihed from so do- ing that he may get more closely in touch with them than he could while abroad. In view of his position he should have considerable influence and it is not unlikely that labor men as we'll as leaders will be nuite gen erally guided by his declaration when 1t comes.

Gompers has Indicated that he was going to fight the radicals and is out to beat the profiteers it seems not improbable that he will take a similar view.

STORIES OF THE WAR
American "Waroraft" in Russia.


 Correspondence of the Associated Press)-Two tiny American war craft, a thirty foot moiorboat from the cruiser Galveston and the twen- ty-four foot motor boat from the yacht Yankton, each manned by Yankee jac6tars and carrying machine guns and light artillery have been playing an important role in keeping the north end of Lake Omega clear of the boisheyik raider boats while the al- lied land forces moved along the shores toward Petrozavodsk
 These boats. which have been re- named Atlanta and Georgia, were brought nearly six hundred miles by rail from Murnanslx and were the first Allied warcraft launched on Lake Omega. Since then British and Rus sian craft have been launched.
 The Atlanta had a close shave a few weeks ago in a fifty minute enga cement with a large bolshevik steamer which outranged the Atlanta's guns. Some of the shells struck with in ten yards of the Atlanta which sought safety at the beach maintain-

next six months it will be possible to allocate approximately another ht1f- dred ships each month for general commerce:
 It is renembered of course that this country secured many vessels from foreign countries in one way or am other and many that are being re- leased are being returned to their owners, but with the release of the many from the special emergency ser vice and the rapid construction of others there ought to be sufficient to assign to the trade that needs them most and such as will be of direct use in bringing about the so much desired trade in many lines. It is quite evil dent in this connections however. that in spite of the response to the scry for more ships we have not as yet gotten to the point where we are pilins up surplus.

 The Serbs seized locomotive and sufficient box cars to carry the bat talion and after four months jour ney arrived at Murmansk.
 The Allies landing at Murmansk in the spring of 1918 found the Serbian battalion there, ready to fight against the bolshevik. and. for the first few months of the campaign, the Serbs formed the backbone of the force op- posing the Reds, which speedily wrested severa1 hundred miles of the Murmansk railway from the Commun- ists.
 Throughout the subsequent fighting on this front Serbs have distinguished themselves, and now they are awaiting new greater Serbia which includes Bosnia and other territories where they lived when impressed into the Austrian army
