urged all to take this interest money
and re-invest it in thrift and war saw

turn their interest into more inter-

double duty. I trust that our citi-
zens who own third liberty loan
bonds will do as the treasury depart

Liberty loan interest coupons may
be exchanged for thrift and war saw

supply of these government securi-

WASTED MILLIONS
AT FORT DELAWARE
FOURTEEN MILLION SPENT ON
SHELL LOADING PLANT. MANY
PRINCELY SALARIES.

WASHIGTON, D. C.-The house
subcommittee investigating ordnance
expenditures during the war tonight
made public testimony taken in its
hearing showing that the government
shell loading plant at Fort Delaware,
uncompleted when the armistice was
signed, has cost the government to
date $14,000,000, although the esti-
mated cost when the contract was
let on the cost plus basis was placed
at from $1,250,000 to $1,500,000.
The difference between the esti-
mated cost and the total thus far
paid out by the government for the
building of the plant is shown in tes-
timony by Lieut.. Col R. H. Hawkins,
of the ordnance department, and a
report made last October by Major
Clair Foster, of the construction d.
vision of the army, and inserted by
the committee in the records.
The contract for the plant was let
to the Northumberland Corporation,
which organized a subsidiary concern
known as the Marlin-Rockwell Load
ing Company, which in turn contract
ed with the Fred T. Lay Company
for construction of the big plant, and
adjoining town to house 10000 per
sons.
Major Fosters report cites some
of the salaries paid by the loading
company and the Ley company with
advances in pay made after a few
months service. The manager of the
former company, the report asserts,
had his salary raised from $4,000
to $15,000; the assistant manager.
"a lawyer and former bond sales
man." from $4,000 to $4,000; the
chief engineer from $500 a year
with $3.50 a month for living expens-
es to $4,000 a year, and the treasur-
err from $4,000 to $4,000. Of the
treasurer, the report said:
Government officers questioned as
to- the treasurer's duties said they
never had been able to see that he
did anything, except to indorse the
governments checks and sign those
Of the loading company"
"Please bear in mind" said Major
Fosters report, that all these sala-
ries do not come out of the loading
company's fee. The government pays
them and then pays 10 per cent. on
top of them"
