MAKING TROOP SHIPS
NOT ON BOARD PROGRAM
Director Piez Of Emergency Fleet
Corporation Replies to Sena-
tor Nelson's Resolution.

Replying to Senator Nelson's recent
resolution before the Senate committee
on commerce, asking for information
concerning ~ statement that the ship
ping board had not turned out a single
troopship. Charles Piez, director of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, said that
the construction of uoopships was not
contemplated in the original program.
The reply Of Mr.. Piez was written JAN
uary "a and made public today.
Mr.. Piez said the War Department
had at its disposal interned German
ships and British passenger vessels. 1t
WIS believed that these would be suffi-
cient to transport the American ex-
peditionary forces across the Atlantic
View Shown Correct.
"And the fact that two and one-half
million men were sent abroad without
any construction on the part OF the
Emergency Fleet Corporation en-
phasizes the correctness of the War
Departments Judgment" Mr. Piez
writes. Continuing, Mr.. Piez said:
1T was not until late in March,
1918, when the progress of the Ger.
mans in Europe indicated the neces-
SHY VI d very fHUCn iaTSeE ana more
aggressive campaign on our part. that
the War Department called on US for
a. considerable amount of troop
transport construction. Up to that
time there had been placed contracts
for seventy class B ships at Hog
Island, which were primarily de-
signed, not as troop transports. but
as rather fast cargo and passenger
ships, and for two hospital and one
troopship with the New York Ship
building Company. The former con-
tract was placed in October, soon
after the Hog Island yard was begun;
the latter contract was placed late
in December.

for hats! Hats, however, is but a characterization of the marvellous humble headgear that the French ac- tress exhibits on the stage; but, when you note we'll the, magnificent feather plumes, in the procuring of which the whole world has been hunted over, you will realize that the figure may not be extravagant. Some idea of Baby's wardrobe may be gleaned from a statement which told that her AZ trunks, packed to the lids with rare creations, were insured for $30,- 000 And at that, it was only a part of her wonderful wardrobe, the greater portion of which had been left in Paris.
 It is said that one of Gaby's won derful plumed creations cost around $2,OO0. But, that Gaby can do in nitely more than wear bewitchingly these most wonderful hats and gowns, is evidenced in the beautiful six-reel Pathe' Special Feature, "In- fatuation," where, though she is an nounced as the most popular French dancer who ever visited America, she is shown as an emotional actress of unquestioned ability and sympathetic appeal. It will be shown at the Or pheum Theatre tonight.

GYPSY LIFE IS SHOWN IN PLAY
 AT THE PALACE.

As "The Wild Girl" of the gypsy tribe, Miss Tanguay gives the per formance of her life and her inter- pretation of the character is filled with pathos and charm.

Charlie is tue lad who 1t may be remembered set the pace fos the stars in the national championship held recently at Brae Burn Country Club, West Newton, Mass.

There is a human side to the life of the Doughboys fighting in France. It is not always battle. and the grim realities of war for them. It would seem as soon as they are relieved from active duties at the front they forget all about danger and hardships and indulge in the usual playful pas times of men at leisure. That they have a good time when off duty is made evident by number of scenes in the third U s. official war picture "Under Four Flags" which will be exhibited at the Orpheum Thursday and Friday.
