Turned Out Regardless of
Conflict S End.
BY United Press.

ASJ OHtlCu IIG55.
Washington, June 2.-United
Washington, June America is find
ing it almost as difficult to stop hel
war preparation as it was to start it
The war department at present Is
accepting huge quantities of war
material. Though most of it will
not be needed in the near future, un
less someone starts a new war, the
army has fuond it cheaper to finish
much OF the work already begun
when the armistice was signed than
to abandon it.
Some of the items accepted since
the armistice are: 796 75-mlllimeter
guns (the famous French 75) with
5,567O00 rounds of high explosive
and 2,751 goo roundnns of shrapnel
for them; SO4 G-ton tanks Digit
Whippet type); 247 l55-millimeter
guns with 414,0O0 high explosive
shells for them; 1000 Brownig au-
tomato rifles; 10000 Browning ma.
chine guns 1lS,O0O,OO0 pounds OF
smokeless powder; 2,417 5-ton trac.
tors for hauling heavy artillery; 124,-
100000 pistol and 570,000,000 rifle
cartridges; 666 900 tin hats sc
S-inch howitzers $4,000 model 1917
rifles (motlified Enfields); $4,000
automatic pistols; 100000 pounds
of T. N. T. and 25,OOOOOO pounds OF
ammonia nitrate.
In the case of tanks and 75-milli-
meter guns, over 80 per cent Of the
total production was completed after
the afmistiee. The largest percent
age of any ordnance item to be de-
livered after the armistice was in the
case of 155-millimeter recoil appara-
tus OF these, $50 of a total of 3S1
were delivered after Nov II.
All the items mentioned, of which
a considerable proportion represents
after-the-war delivery, required long
preparation before manufacture
could be begun. Besides constitut-
ing valuable reserve for another
war, the war department pointed

Arabian Nights than the sober facts Of the
Twentieth Century"

The sHlPRuILpING RECORD.

The shpbuilding figures transmitted by Chairman Hur
ley Of the United States shipping board, to Chairman
Good Of the House committee appropriations give ex
tremely interesting information Mr. Hurey states that
the cost Of cancelng ship contracts will be 1902 $4,000
the cost Of shpyard housing and transportation $780,
210275 and administration $45OOO 900, leaving $780,
100000 in round numbers to be accounted for in ships
There will be 2434 vessels aggregating 13S56lO6 dead
weight TONS indicating cost of $206 lightweight ton
But the has recovered in income and excess
profit taxes at least SIS lightweight ton, not counting
the taxes paid by subcontractors furnishing STEEL boilers
and machinery Thus the net lightweight ton cost of the
government and merchant feet is about $3.50.
The market value of ships to be about 1910 2
ton as the shipping board has sold several vessels at thai
figure during the last week. Therefore the government
can feel satisfied with its investment of $2S61 55570
spent and to be spent in building ships The shipping
board in ten months expanded the shpbuildng industry
tenfold thrusng the United States to first place as
producer Of merchant tonnage and giving this country
econd phase in overseas tonnage. The war energy in
shpbuildng was gigantic effort never before approach
cd by any nation and at the signing of the armstce this
energy under tremendous momentum had to be checked
and even put in The cancellations and suspen
siaons Of ship contracts amount to 3797S25 deadwegh
TONS no longer needed for The saving in this item
will be about $594 100000.
In operations of this magnitude, carried under the
spur Of war; there be expenditures which would be
criticised under ordinary business conditions The
try will not be disposed to pick flaws the record of the
shipbuding board under Mr. Hurley's direction. He un
dertOok task of heroic proportions, and actually pro-
duced ships with wonderful rapdity His plans would
have met every need of continued war; and the ships he
built constitute the second largest merchant feet in
the world That record stands as magnificent achieve
men and it could have been achieved without the
siashing Of red tape.
No doubt lazy grafters have stolen biscuit from Her
bert Hoover here and there in Europe and perhaps petty
grafte have stolen the equivalent of ship from Edward

Ripping Rhymes
By WALT MASON

!. + \ !. i !. !. i. + !. i + !. 4
In wartime's long and dreary
night they told us we must work or
fight, and so we worked or fought;
the husky, man secured a gun. and
sought the spoor of vandal Hun; the
balance of us wrought. We fat men
left our gilded lairs, our hammocks
and our easy chairs, and titled the
fertile soil; we paved around and
trilled our song, and tried to show
the passing throng new curves in
honest toll. "When war is done" we
said, "gadzooks, again well seek our
inglenooks, and bask on beds of ease |;
until shall come that blissful day we'll
grow our luscious bales of hay, and
raise our bomb-proof peas" Now
war is but a tale that's told, the
sword has rust, the guns are cold, no
armies thunder by; but still we have
to dig and hoe, and saw and split,
and plant and sow-for now it's work
or die. 1t costs so much to stay on
earth we have no time for hours of
mirth, for dreams or idle games; we
have no time for languid ease; we
have to work like humble bees around
our quilting frames. With labor we
are face to face; alas, it is ground
hog case, we have to work or die; we
have to rustic for the bones; there is
no place for dreaming drones be-
meath the bending sky.

SOME SIDELIGHTS ON
 THE ROAD-HOG STORY

The alleged "road hogs" who have been given so much notoriety through the Springerville Hustler and the St. Johns Herald, all belong in the same pen, according to the, opinion of Judge A. s. Gibbons. The case was appealed to the superior court, F. w. Nelson representing the defendant, and Judge Gibbons promptly set aside the verdict of the justice of the peace of Spring erville, who had imposed fine of S75. The judge assessed fine of S10 and intimated that he would have been glad to do the same for the other party, believing them to be equally guilty.
 F. H. Alnutt, the alleged road out law, is still at the Hotel Earth and is a gentlemanly fellow whose home is at Pasadena, Cal The other par ties "beat it"; but an effort is being made to have them apprehended and brought back to face the charge of a gun attack upon MT. Alnutt and his passenger, l.. H. Fox. Two bullets hit their Cadillac car, one going through the fender and the other hit ting the tire rim. It is probable that more will be heard of this case.--St Johns Observer.
