virtually the form it came from the
Naval Committee.
A strong effort will be made by Sec
retary Daniels before the Senate Naval
Affairs Committee to have the aviation
appropriation restored to the original
figures.
"The wonderful success of recent
transatlantic fights has demonstrated d
the incalculable possibilities of avia-
ton, in which the United States must
not be passive onlooker, but an active
participant" Secretary Daniels said to-
day.
He conferred this afternoon with
Senator Page, of Vermont, chairman of
the Naval Affairs Committee, and dis
cussed the necessity of increasing the
appropriation allowed by the House for
aviation.
Senator Page called meeting of his
committee to discuss the bill to-mor-
row. Hearings upon the measure will
be held Wednesday and Thursday
when Secretary Daniels and other Navy
Department officials will seek to con-
vince the committee that the Senate
should restore many of the appropria-
tions cut by the House.

It is better ore in that it has a greater
percentage Of iron"
Chairman Fordney interrupted the
exchange to remark that the purpose
Of the committee was to protect Amer
ican industry and American capital en-
ployed at home and not to protect
American capital used to give employ
ment to foreigners.
Complains of Unfair Rates
Mr.. Thane complained the Shipping
Board had given a special rate of $3.50
a ton on Austrian ore from Trieste to
New York, while the rate from the Pa
cifc Coast to New York was S15.75. Be-
cause Of this difference in freight rates,
and the refusal of big consumers to
buy the American product, he said,
American producers Of magnesite were
idle.
The American industry now employs
1000 workers, he said. 1t was developed
under the encouragement of the War
Trade Board, since the steel industry
could not have operated without mag
nestle and importations were cut off.
The principal competing mines are
located in Austria, Venezuela. Greece
and Canada.
The committee seemed disposed to
give favorable consideration to the re-
quest for protection by the magnesito
producers.

Hanlon Charges To Be
Pressed, Says Whalen
Commissioner Explains Prede-
cessor Was Too Busy to
File Alterations

Grover A. Whalen, Commissioner Of
Plant and Structures, said yesterday he
would press charges against Lawrence
Superintendent Of Ferries,
based on a report filed more than FIVE
months ago by Commissioner Of Ac-
counts Hirshheld. Mr.. Hirshiield
turned his report over to John H.
Delaney, the then Commissioner of
Plant and Structures, five months ago,
but Delaney, now Public Service Com
missioner in charge Of construction.
took no action further than the formu
lation of formal charges which Whalen
found on file when he succeeded
Delaney.
Despite the delay Mayor Hylan and
Commissioner Whalen said they had
"implcit confidence" il Commissioner
Delaney, and they presumed that the
Hanlcn matter would have been de-
cided if other urgent matters had not
crowded it out.
In his report to Mayor Hylan filed
Jan. 81, Commissioner Hirshfield
called Hanlon unfit for the executive
position he occupied" and recon-
mended, If the charges are sustained,
he be removed from Office.

PARIS, June 16.-It is understand
that that General Pershing has cabled
the War Department recommending it
rescind the ruling prohibiting welfare
workers to embark on government
transports.
This recommendation is being re-
garded by army officials in charge Of
ocean transportation as an order by the
commander in chief Of the American
Expeditionary Forces, thus superseding
the War Department ruling, whereupon
they have resumed allottWg accommo-
dations to welfare organizations, to
whom it is a great financial relief.
The cost of first class army trans
portation is 120 france (S24), while COM
mercial lines charge eight times that
amount, and accommodations are diff
cult to obtain.

Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, June 16.-The larg-
est sale of steel ships ever made in the
history of the shipping industry was
announced by Chairman Edward N.
Hurley of the United States Shipping
Board to-day. Within the last day and
a half the Shipping Board has sold to
seven firms of ship operators nineteen
of its new steel ships, at prices rang
ing from $210 to 1925 a deadweight
ton.
The nineteen ships had total dead
weight tonnage Of 128,472 tons and
sold for an aggregate of s27,s21,1 ,120.
More sales at even higher prices are
in prospect, Chairman Hurley said. He
declined to give the names of the pur-
chasers of the vessels, but said they
were we'll known American shipping
firms, and they would probably buy
more vessels within the next week or
two.
Chairman Hurley disclosed that the
German liner 1mperator will go to
Great Britain under the peace settle
ment, that between 100000 and 100000
tons of German shipping will go to
France, and large part of Austria's
merchant fleet in the Adriatic will be
given to Italy
All American Purchasers
The terms of the sales announced to-
day are 40, per cent of the purchase
price to be paid the first year, % per
cent at the time of purchase. The re-
naming 60 per cent will be cancelled in
10 per cent payments in the succeed
ing four years.
One squadron of six steel ships went
to a single operator. Four were sold
to another firm, and two each to four
other companies. All were purchased
by Americans and will fly the Ameri-
can flag.
Twelve of the nineteen ships were OF
the fabricated type, turned out at the
Newark yards of the Submarine Boat
Company and at Hog Island.
Only Nation for Spot Delivery
In commenting on the sales, Chair
man Hurley said:
"The United States government is
the only country in the world to-day
where ships can be sold for spot de-
livery The purchasers of these ves-
sells will get immediate possession and
will place them in trade routes with
out delay. The operators who have
taken them over are men of vision and
experience.
"To-day we were in communication
with one firm in regard to the sale of
forty-two wooden ships of the Ferris
type. We have already sold forty-two
wooden ships.
"Sincc we began selling ships a short
time ago we have disposed Of 332,O45
deadweight tons (221,363 gross tons).
The total amount of these sales is now
S51, ,856,62O."

Magnesite Producers Assert
Tariff Fence Is Necessary
to Prevent Dumping by
Germans and Austrians
NeW York Tribune
Wdshtn atom Bureau


WASHINGTON, June 16.-Protection
against German and Austrian dumping
after tha peace treaty was signed was
asked to-day by representatives of the
American magnesite industry, developed
during the war, before the House Ways
and Means Committee. Unless duty
Of three-quarters of one per cent is
levied on crude magnesite, the COM
mite, was told. the entire industry
centering on the Pacific Coast, with an
investment of s5,ooo,OOO will be wiped
out.
E. M. Allen. vice president of the
American Refractory Company, opposed
levying high tariff on magnesite on
the ground that the industry built up
in Austria by his company, with an
investment of $2,000,000, would be de-
stroyed. He~would not object, he said,
to a five per cent ad valorem duty.
This proposal was condemned by repre-
sentatives Of the American industry,
who said it would give them insufficient
protection, since the American Re-
fractory Company would be able to i'm
port magnesite at a rate lower than
that at which it could be produced in
this country.
B. L. Thane, representing the North
Western Magnesite Company Of Wash
ington, replied hotly when Mr.. Allen
charged that the Pacific Coast COM
panies constituted a monopoly.
Profteering Charged
"These companies can produce mag
nestle at profit of $40 ton, but they
are holding it up to $27 ton," Mr..
Allen charged.
"That is not true" Mr.. Thane con-
tradicted.
Mr.. Allen produced a letter signed
by the manager of one of the American
companies declining to sell at price
lower than SGT. The American Refrac-
tory Company would not buy magnesite
at any reasonable price, Mr.. Thane re-
torted, for it is expecting to be able to
get the Austrian product shortly.
"1s it not true that you would use
the Austrian product even if the
American magnesite could be bought
at the same rate" Mr.. Thane demanded.
