meanwhile, about 100000 or $500
tons of American ships are idle wait
ing repairs. This idleness adds to
freight costs, tends to increase the
cost of living everywhere and is a
waste that is abhorrent.
The shipping board and Emergency
Fleet Corporation people have been
slow to see the urgency of dry docks
or to work to correct the situation.
We have approximately 80 marine
railways dry docks in America. Most
of them are Anticipated and of small
capacity. The Emergency Fleet Cor
poration people have been negotiating
to have a score or two of modern

Emergency Fleet Corporation to ad-
vance the bulk of the money and the
private concerns that joined the gov
eminent in the projects to operate the
plants from the beginning and pay
back in the course of years the money
supplied by the government.
For various reasons, principally, it
is said, the shift in conditions pre-
scribed by the emergency fleet peo-

layed. Meanwhile the harbors have

did so well with such haste, such lack
of training and such conditions as
prevailed in all the great yards. All
things considered we did remarka bly,

not first class. Some of them were
rather wobbly. They had to be put
into service Immediately. The crews
were raw. They abused the ships, not
Intentionally but because of their ig-
norance. Besides all the ships afloat
were being strained to the utmost.

IDLEFOR LACK
OF DRYDOCKS

In the development of the Ameri-
can merchant marine the shipping
board has neglected one important de-
tail that is proving of great embar-
rassment and cost today. That is in
the creation of dry docks TO meet
the needs of our growth in ships.
Today in New York harbor So ocean
cargo vessels are laid up awaiting re-
pairs In Boston Is ships are in the
same plight In Norfolk there are IL
cripples. In most of the big harbors
of our Atlantic and Pacific seaboar ds
IL Is the Same story.
Officially our mercantile marine to-
day approximates 100000 tons dead
weight. The Emergency Fleet pro-
gram is for 13,595,000 tons dead
weight. With additions such as may
be expected through vessels built
for our account in other countries
and with the acquisition of German
ships for those of our flag sunk by
U-boats we should have approximate
~ 100000 dead weight tons of ocean
going ships within a year and a half.
Our yards are turning out vessels at
a marvellous speed In the two months
of May and June. 1,025,000 lightweight
tons of steel ships were delivered.
What this means may be appreciated
when ii is said that in the sixteen
years 1900 to 1915 inclusive, We built
on an average $4,000 tons lightweight
OF ships of all classes. In other words
we have built more ships in two
months this year than we averaged
I'm three years before the war.
But, and here is the crux of the

trouble. the more ships we build tile
more docks we need and we are not
providing dry docks to meet the
growth of our shipping.
The 50 ships laid up at New York,
Boston and Norfolk represent per-
haps 425,0O0 lightweight tons 1t
would be reasonable to estimate that
100000 tons are laid up elsewhere
That would mean that because of
shortage of dry docks ships repre-
senting the output of two years of
shipbuilding before the war are out
of commission.
Conditions in this respect are like
ly to be worse rather than better.
Every new vessel would go into dry
dock AZ days after launching. The
shipping board requires it. If it is a
steel ship the repainting of the hull
the making of repairs where faults
have been discovered and the tight
ening of plates when riveting has been
proven defective or the correction o<
some ailment in boiler or engine
should be attended to before the craft
goes into regular service.
II it is a wooden ship the seams
should be recaulked and barnacles
scraped off. Otherwise you invite
trouble.
But with the overcrowding of the
dry docks new ships do not get this
necessary work. What this means in
impairment is beyond calculation.

ton facilities are so scant. Revival

mer president of the Hungarian re-
public told the Associated Press cor
respondent today. The count contin-
ued to denounce the peace treaty, de-
claring that its terms are impossible
and that the boundaries fixed for
Hungary are ruinous.

to such Bolshevikf that Is making a
comedy of politics. 1t is treating the
people of Europe as if they were

You want to sell us goods, but
beggars cannot buy shoes or motor
cars. Before the war we exported
two thirds of our coal. Now we are
left with two small coal mines, no
forests. no oil, no salt, no iron. no
electric water power. We are left
only our wheat lands and mineral
water.
without free trade the League of
Nations is useless so far as we are
concerned. While President Wilson
never mentioned this, he must have
had it in mind when he formed his
fourteen points. Now his too modern
conceptions have been dropped in def
erence to the English and French
military parties.
Both French and Italian policies
of buffer states are impractical 1t is
fruitless to attempt balances of pow
er. The more you try to avoid future
wars, the more certain it is that they
will come. Already Germany is being
educated to a policy of revenge, al
though the League of Nations cannot
have hatred as its basis. 1t is no
longer a question of Bolshevism or
non Bolshevism for the central en-
pires, but a question of standing or
falling together.

Anything that would float was put to
carrying cargo. Repairs were post
poned until further postponement was
unthinkable.
The result of all this is that the
merchant fleets of all nations are in
a poor state. There will be a great
amount of repair work necessary for
years America will suffer most in
this respect because we have so few
dry docks.
Program Insufficient

not. The British with a sea coast
of small extent compared with our
vast coastal stretch had more than
200 dry docks before the war. If we
are to lead the world in shipping we
should have that number or more.
Dry docks are as necessary to ships

the best judgment of both British an
American authorities.
The 50 ships tied up at New York,
Boston and Norfolk alone represent
perhaps direct loss of 100000 u dav
to the country and an indirect loss
of very much more to the nation and

WOMAN WHO PLANNED

the charge, stated that Miss Smith
had told him of her visions of an in

Phoenix and of direct messages re-

testified that Miss Smiths visions led
TO her obtaining amounts of money
from various people, his own wife, he
said, being among those who had
made loans to the young woman.
Judge Stanford took the case under
Amusement.
Miss Smith was called as a witness
by her counsel. She told the court
she hoped still to build a temple in
Phoenix, where al! might worship.
Its proposed seating capacity. she
said, would be from 10000 to $4,000.
