.SALVADOR'S BIG
NEED Is MONEY
Twenty Five Million Dollars Is Need
ed To Take Care OF Coffee
Crop.
A Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, May 2
The first and greatest need of the
republic of Salvador is money, said
Salvador Sol, new Minister Of : Pleni-
| potentiary at Washington for that
country who has just arrived from
South America. The money is need
ed at once, according to Minister Sol.
twenty-five millions of dollars
are needed to properly take care of
our coffee crop and the government
of the republic will not only well
come foreign capital but will make
every fair inducement to attract it,
he said. "We are particularly anx-
icus to increase our commercial reia-
ions with the United States.
"The reason that Salvador did not
act yely enter into the war against
Ger many was the fact that there was
an old clique of politicians favorable
to that country. Since the war that
element has been completely elimin-
aued. The administration of the coun-
try as elected now is entirely in the
hands Of pro-American officials. Our
President, Jorge Melendez, was edu-
Gated in the United States and l am
one of a number of others in official
positions who have had the same ad-
vantages.
we are particularly anxious for
a.
ness in big way to open up in Sal
vador. There are two banks of a cap
ital of half million dollars who have
started business but what we really
need is an institution which will have
"a capital of at least ten millions Of
dollars
"A1y man who has capital, say
about S10,0G0, will lind excellent op-
portunities for investment which, with
work and care, will bring him returns
well worth while. l should strongly
advise against any young man who
las only his hands and his brain to
DEPEND on from going down there.
Our coffee before the war, was
consumed in France, Italy, Germany
and England. Now Germany is elm
mated and the United States is gett-
ing one half of our crop.
cit will be my particular endeavor
to foster the commercial relations be-
tween the two countries and to inter
est capital.
eve rely for our protection on the
United States confidence of it's fair
ness; so much so that we sent our del
egate to the Paris Peace convention
instructed to concur with the vote of
the United States on all questions
which came up. We do not fear any
thing as we are confident that the
Monroe Doctrine will stand and that
this country will safeguard the ma
tions Of this continent.

AMERICAN SHIPPING FACILITIES
 TO BE AMPLE FOR COMING YEAR
Chairman Hurley of the Opinion That the Program for Bringing Back American Troops Will Be Carried Out Without Difficulty.

London, Jan, 9-CCorrespondence of The Associated Press) will be no shortage of cargo tonnage for supplying world needs during the first half of 1919 in the opinion of Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the United States Shipping Board. It is passenger space for transporting g troops home that is occupying atten- ton of the Allied shipping controllers. No nation can have as much of that as 1t wants now.
 After comforting with industrial and shipping heads in England and France and viewing a large part of the battle areas of France and Bel gium, MT. Hurley stated that 1t would take at least six months, pos sibly more for France and England to rehabilitate their industries to the point where large amounts of raw material would be needed,
 It Is pointed out that it would be useless to send industrial machinery destroyed factory buildings are made ready to receive them.
 Almost the entire British industrial system now Is huge munitions pro- duction machine virtually idle. Until 1t Is transformed to its pre-war state raw materials would be a burden. II will be necessary to import some ma Chinery for the transformation but not enough seriously to tax cargo space for the next seven months, Mr. Hurley believes. ....
 The thirty-two German passenger vessels In German ports have been the center of most of the allied ship ping discussions on this side for weeks. Americans want all of them they can get to send home, roughly 1,700. 900 men, as soon as possible England must send home to Canada about 300,O0O, to Australia about 2o0,000, to New Zealand 75,0OO ov more, and bring to England thous-

ands from Mesopotania, Palestine and other places. Obviously the Ameri- can problem Is the greatest and it is understood that. in pressing for ships, Americans generally have in sisted that the United States, with less than two years of war, is in a better position to assimilate its re- turning troops than is England whose industrial conditions have been more disrupted.
 With the rapid increase in Ameri- can tonnage 1t is expected that more than 70 per cent of the American forces will go home in American ships. It is the desire of American army officers and shipping interests that as many as possible Of the bal ance be carried homo in German passenger vessels, thus releasing a large number of British bottoms.
 If the demands of Americans, heard here, that the troops be sent home as rapidly as they were brought over becomes insistent it will take more ships to send them back than to bring them over. They were brought over under the stress of necessity and in some instances ships were loaded to the extent of discom- fort Loss of tonnage caused by lighter loading, however, will partial lT be made up by greater speed. F'ast vessels will not be compelled to con form to convoy speed and the elim- ination of zig-zagging will save much time.
 While Q great many men are beina sent home now and the number will constantly increase it is not believed the real homeward movement will be inaugurated before February 1 Whether then it will be on the sug. gested basis of 300, 900 month de. pends almost entirely upon decision; | or the allied shipping conferences which began soon after the armistic5 l was signed.

ONLY TWO GERMAN ALIENS
 NOW CONFINED IN JAILS

There are now only two German enemy aliens confined in Connecticut jails, Frederick Seahm of Madison, who Is in New Haven jail and Walter Pappenberg in the jail at New Lon don. Seahm is charged with making unpatriotic remarks about the Presi- dent of the United States, which he admitted, and pro-German sympath- ies, which he denied.

 Pappenberg was locked up for vio- lation of the terms of his enemy per init, and when released on parole again violated them and declared he would never abide by them. It is not likely that he will be soon released

contract for 8 complete new heat ing plant for Christ church was given to H. c. Lowell {; Co. by the vestry i at their meeting in the parish house last evening. Three plans were con- , SiAered. First an addition to the new steam 5Oiler in the rarish house. This plan was discarded as the required amount of radiation could not be se- cured. Second new steam boiler for the church. Third. two large sized hot air furnaces. After some discussion 1t was decided to adopt the third plan and two new Crawford furnaces will be installed, one at either end of the church cellar. The work will be com pleted in 10 days and the plant Is guaranteed to heat the church to Q temperature of 70 degrees in zero weather. The present hot air furnace in the west end of the church was in stalled by MT. Lovelrs father over 3S years ago and while it is still in work ing condition 1t Is badly worn and it was thought wise to replace 1t.
 Unless the weather should be very cold, service will be held in the church on next Sunday. By the fol- lowing Sunday 1t is expected that the new plant will be installed and work ing,
