URGES SOUTHERNERS
 TO BECOME SHIP OWNERS

Washington, July 2.-(Special)-The ap- peal of F. N. Hurley, chairm an of the shipping board, to a delegation from Mo bile, sometime ago. that southern husi- ness men become owners of ships, is re. peated today by Commissioner Mcdonald of that board
 He asks a delegation from Galveston; Don't you think it time that you gentle
 men should be getting ready to own ships? It seems to me that the time has { come for the south to take more of an | interest in ships by becoming owners of ships.
 i More than 100 vessels flying the Amer 1 ican flag have some southern ports as home berths, and this number includes
 only steam and gas-pnopelled vessels or 1 1000 gross tons. From south Atlantic and gulf ports innumerable vessels ply be- ] tween South American countries and 1 American products are carried in Amer
 ican bottoms to these countries. Prac-
 tically every southern state and every large southern city has vessel bearing 1 it's name.
 1 However, according to the shippins
 hoard. the south owns few vessels. The
 board has ships for sale, and will sel them cheaply on long terms. Senator Underwood and other southern senators think that the south will eventually in vest heavily in ships, and that the in Eyestment will prove to be profitable.

BANKHEAD SUCCEEDS IN
 INCREASING APPROPRIATION

Washington, July Z.-tSpeclal)- w lti the republicans. animated by political motives. straining every nerve to reduce the expenditures of the government. 1t is difficult task, however much merit must be involved to increase the appro- priations carried in bill reported by a committed But that very thing Rep resentative Bankhead has done. He se- cured an increase of s6,50o00o in the appropriation for the education III traoe
 of disabled soldiers.
 In course of his argument, out of which
 came his victory, Mir. Banfhead gave
 some statistics relative to the number of
 soldiers already being cared for, and those others deserving of such care. In part, he said:
 "A great deal of criticism has been in dulged in from son,e quarters with refer ence to the administration of the duties of the vocational board, and it might be helpful as matter of information, 1T not valuable necessarily as contribution to this debate, to call to your attention a brief summary of the work that has been accomplished by that board. Up to March 1, 1919, according to the figures furnished, there were registered and un- der study and the observation of the i board 30O0o disabled soldiers. One thou 1 sand two hundred and fifteen injured sol- | diers not required to have exclusive train l ing in order to equip them Tor future usefulness in life have been placed in po- sitions where they can earn Temunera- 1 tion and good living. Thirteen hundred and sixty-five have been assigned to oc- equations. Forty-two hundred disabled soldiers are now assigned under the ad- | ministration of the vocational board tc 1 exclusive study in schools or in occupa- tional trades in order to retrain them l in their handicapped condition to pur-
 sue gainful occupations when they have concluded their courses.
 "In all it is estimated, as a minimum 1 that there will be 15,00o soldiers coming under the provisions of the original act who will be trained for new occupations 1 or trades. Here is an element that cer- l tainly appeals to our compassionate con l sderation: There are 59,000 wounded sol diers still in the hospitals of the coun try undischarged whom this board vii

 eligible for training, and if found eligible to give them training. Now. I sumbit fol

UJLLARD LITTLE
 KNOWN TO PUBLIC
By HOLLAND.

New. York, July 2.-(Special)-1n this column yesterday reference was made to the bequest contained in the will of the late A. D. Juillard. which will provide the greatest musical endowment fund ever established in the United States or in any other country, the specific purpose being chiefly the aid to all worthy music students and incidentally the development to high degree of the United States not only as a music loving nation. but one distinguished for mastery of music. There was, however, another side to MT. Juilard well worthy of consideration.
 Perhaps the least important of the events associated with his career is the fact that those who should know say that he accumulated fortune of not less than $40, GOO ,0CO, and perhaps s50000,000 At all events he was one of the multimilion- aires of the United States and yet he
 was not conspicuous as possess.or of
 very great wealth. He is to be included l in that considerable number of men whose
 fortunes reached high in the millions. but whose names were not familiar to
 the public, and whose career was prac- tically unknown excepting to the abler
 business men, the abler financers and frailroad managers.
 MT billiards business was that of {, commission house which handled textile
 goods for the manufacturers in the busi-
 ness world his house gained such high
 reputation that it was not necessary to
 look into the books of the corporations
 which record the credit standings of mer-
 chants and others. The word of the
 house was as good as spot cash
 Nevertheless it does not seem credible
 that MT. Juilliard should have accumu-
 Fo~ sv, hn
 United States from his commissions and
 services as middle man between the textile goods manufacturers and the job hers as well as the retailers. There was a time when the commission houses, es- pecially those that handled the manufac- tured products of the textile manufac-
 turers, made a great deal of money.
 Some of them were esteemed to have earned larger profits in the course of the wear than did the house of A. D. Juilliard ', & Co., None, however, stood higher. There was no commission house whose services were more eagerly sought by the textile manufacturers than the one I of which Mir. Juilliard was the head.
 \ GREAT COMMISSION HOUSES l A few years ago there began to be ob- served a change in the relation of the commission house to the general trade Some of the textile manufacturers ac- f cumulated sufficient capital and em- ployed sufficient ability to enable them 1 to market directly their own goods, esti- l mating that if this were done there could 1 be a considerable saving.
 i Recently this tendency was strikingly l demonstrated by the perfecting of plans for the organization of a bank of large I capital officered by men of high ability l whose business is to be confined chiefly I to the financial handling of the textile
 manufacturing interests. An undertaking
 of that kind would not have been made
 had it not promised to yield large pro1ts-

MIR. JULLIARD'S FORTUNE

But it would require very large com missions maintained yearly for a long course of years to enable partner in a commission house of this kind to ac- cummuate fortune which can be num- bered among the great fortunes that have been amassed in the past 40 years in the United States.
 It was often observed by business men who had dealings, some of them very large, with Mir Juilliard that he pos sesses the somewhat rare gift, rare at least until the recent era of great indus trial and financial combinations of work ing out mentally general plan and hav-
 ing done that then committing the details
 to executive officers to subordnates.
 He never worried himself about details, ! being sure that his executive officers were so competent to handle the details after they learned what his general plan was.
 In this way Mir. Juilliard found time to share in other vacations and also to cul- tivate his taste for music and literature.
 He was chosen director of many financial and business corporations, and always accepted the responsibility of that kind as though it was not a mere honor or recognition of his business ability, but instead as though it involved certain duties.
 | The result is that having been asso- | ciated with many corporations and sev- ! eral banking institutions which were called upon to aid in financing some very l large propositions, he was able to take reasonable and honorable advantage of
 these opportunities, and in that way
 rapidly to increase his fortune If he at- l tended all the director meetings his ag- | gregate fees in the course of a year must have furnished him with an abun- dance of pin money, although it was l commonly reported that MT. Juilliard was l the recipient of these fees. That is not unusual Many men make it point of
 turning over to their wives or to mem bers of the family the fees which they
 receive for services as directors. | MT Juilliard in addition to his busi-
 ness and also to his responsibilities as a
 director found time to associate himself
 with some of the important philanthropy i ists and benefactions of New York. He
 never seemed to be very busy man, for he knew well how to work and not | make a fuss about it.
 He stood prominent among the business
 men of New York, but not until it was
