No sHORTlGE OF
CARG0 TONklGE
N '19--HUR[EY

London. Jan. 5-There will be no
shortage of cargo tonnage for supply
ing world needs during the first haif
of 1919, in the opinion of Edward N.
Hurley, chairman of the United States
Shipping Board. 1t is passenger spacs
for transporting troops home that IS
occupying attention of the allied ship
ping controllers No nation can have
as much OF that as it wants now.
After comforting with industrial and
shipping heads in England and France
and viewing large part OF the battle
areas of France and Belgium. Mr.. Hur-
ley stated that 1t would take at least
six months, possibly more, for France
and England to rehabilitate their in
dustries to the point where large
amounts Of raw material would be
needed.
1t is pointed out that it would be
useless to send industrial machinery
and raw materials to France until her
destroyed factory buildings are made
ready to receive them.
Almost the entire British Industrial
system now is a huge munitions pro-
duction machine virtually idle. Until
it is transformed to its pre-war state
raw materials would be burden It
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
100000 men as soon as possible.
England must send home to Cal
100000, to Australia about 100000. to
New Zealand $1,000 or more and bring
to England thousands from Mesopo-
tamia, Palestine. and other places.
Obviously the American problem is
the greatest and it is understood that.
in pressing for ships, with less than
two years Of war, is in a better posi-
ton to assimilate its returning troops
than is England whose industrial con-
ditions have been mors disrupted

him to have been caused by grief over
the death of his youngest son, Lieuten-
ant Quentin Roosevelt, coupled with
the anxiety over the serious wounds
of Captain Archie Roosevelt, now
fighting in France.
Put out the light, please" were the
former presidents last words, adj
dressed to a young negro servant.
Washington, Jan. 6.-Washington,
representing the nation at large, gave
solemn and earnest expression, today
of the country's regret at the death
admiration for his character and
achievements. Flags of every gov
eminent building throughout the Uni
ted States. every post and naval ves-
sci, were ordered placed at half mast.
The senate and house adjourned at
ter eulogies had been delivered Both
republican and democrat committees
were appointed to attend the funeral.
The supreme court took unprece-
dented action in adjourning without
transacting any business. Formal trib-
utes were paid Colonel Roosevelt by
government officials.
Members of the cabinet, diplomats
senators and representatives, and
statements today, rejecting the pro-
found feeling that was stirred in the
capital by the news of Colonel Roose-
velt's death.
Vice-President Marshall said: THE
late president will undoubtedly leave
a permanent impress on american
life''
Secretary Daniels said: 1.-THE death
of ex-President Roosevelt removes one
of the ablest dynamic forces the coun-
try has ever produced"
Secretary Baker said: During his
long and brilliant career. he touched
the public of America in more ways
than any other of our public men,.
Senator Johnson, of California, said:
The greatest American of our gem
Grafton has passed away"
Political effects of Colonel Roose-
velt's death began to be discussed even
while the capital mourned the passing
of the leading figure of American pub
lie life. AS Colonel Roosevelt had
been mentioned prominently as a pos
sible presidential nominee. it is in
evitable that his death should cause
speculation as to other candidates..
Republican leaders asserted tn edeath
of the founder of the Progressive party
would mean the complete reunion of
the republicans.

From the day that the United States
declared war on Germany in April.
1917, until the armistice was declared
early in November, 1918. Washington
was the Mecca of hundreds of thou
sands of men and women who wanted
to join the army or navy or serve the
government in one of the departments
at a salary Of more than double what
was received back home.
With this influx of job seekers came
over the country to sell materials to
the government and take advantage
of a livlihood created by the enormous
increase in Washington's population.
And now the boom has busted and
things are getting back to normal.
The tide of people who came in
with the war emergency are sorry and
must go back home or take employ
ment here at salaries far reduced from
those secured from the government.
But the regular residents of Wash
ington are glad 1t is all over. AS a
general rule they did not profit from
the boom but experienced all the
disadvantages of crowded conditions
and high prices that go with a boom.
They can now assert ownership over
their homes again and will not be
compelled to give up part of their
houses to shelter war workers by gov
eminent mandate.

The men who served their country
under the most trying circumstances
without complaint while the war was
on feel now that conditions should be
improved and that they should receive
redress for their wrongs. Complain
ing to their officers, an unpopular
pastime under any circumstances.
they believe, would not bring about
improved conditions, so they naturally
turn to their senator or congressman
to take UP their complaints with the
departments
Today fully 5per cent of the daily
mail of each senator and congressman
is from the father or mother or from
of the wrongs suffered in performances
the man in the service himself telling
of a patriotic duty.
The thousands OF complaints.
great portion OF which portray heart
rending conditions and almost unbe-
lievably harsh treatment, have driven
the senators and congressman almost
frantic.
Most of the complaints are on this
order:
/. Dependents of fighting men
fail to receive pal alIotments and
allowances.
2. Men in hospitals receive no
mail from their families or pay
for several months.
8. Men discharged without suf-
ficient funds to carry them home.
4. Soldiers and sailors sorely
needed at home cannot obtain dis
charges, although men all around
them willing to remain in the ser
vice are being dismissed.
5. War department casualty
reports are glaringly inaccurate
and badly DELAYED.
The senators and congressman have
taken these reports and complaints to
the departments concerned, but as a
rule have failed utterly to obtain in
formation that would relieve the vari-
Gus situations complained Of.
A number of them have made
speeches in the senate and house air
ing their complaints and views in the
hope of arousing the departments to
correct the evils, but without apre-
ciabIe results. The senators and con-
gressmen are fervently hoping the
period of complaint is near it's end.

Clerk Is In Error When He WithOldS
Payment to Firm Of Contractors, Claim

Clerk James McGibbon, of tho
county board, is acting in error in
withholding payment Of $2654 to Con-
tractors NJ. j. McGrath and E. r.
Bartholomew, If he is acting in the be-
lief that the payment is for lumber.
according to a statement issued by
the contractors last night.
Taking issue to 6 recent statement
Of Clerk Macgibbon that payment of
this fund authorized by the county
commissioners was not right, the con-
tractors have come out with the fol-
lowing statement of their position in
the matter.
Payment of funds for the lumber
to be used in the construction of the
Bayou Chico bridges. totaling $3.50.
have been made long ago by the
board. the contractors say. They also
aver that the $2654 asked by them is
not for any item of lumber. but covers
costs of labor. cement sand and gravel
only, to be used in the construction of
the bridges. At least 25 per cent Of
this is for labor, according to Messrs.
McGrath and Bartholomew.
sOLoNs VISIT BRIDGE.
The contractors say that when the
first refusal Of payment OF the s2654
was made by Mr.. Macgibbon, for the
reason that he did not believe that the
county was getting enough for the
money expended, the board made a
visit to the scene of the construction
work. They were there shown just
what the material was for and that it
had been included in the specifications
of their own engineer, F. r. Aszman,
of the Schurzer Lift Bridge Com
pany. The contractors report that the
commissioners returned to Pensacola
satisfied that the payment was alright
and again confirmed 1t.
In spite of all this, Messrs. McGrath
and Bartholomew say, Mr.. Macgibbon
still refused to o. K the payment. Tt
is expected that the matter will be
called to the attention of the commits
sioners at their meeting this morn
ing, which has been called for selec-
ton of county officers for the ensuing
year.
