Only one Treacherous Letter.

Out of $1,000 suspected letters of
the American expeditionary forces only
one case of treachery was found, ac-
cording to the records Of the base
censor which have just been made pub
lie by the War Loan Organization.
These 5O,7O0 letters were held up on
suspicious of various natures and were
then subjected to the most thorough
and efficient tests to determine whether
or not they carried information of
value to the enemy.
In the examination of letters secret
chemical test infallible in its detection
of invisible ink is used. The search
for codes constitutes laborious task
anr requires men skilled in the work.
Although there were cases in which
accidental information was disclosed
which might have been of value to the
enemy, only one instance of actual
treachery on the part of a member of
the A. E. F. was discovered. The de-
tails of this case are of course secret.
Such universal loyalty might well
serve as an inspiration to all defenders
of liberty and spur all men and women
on to do their full share toward the
completion Of the task which these
patriotic boys went across the ocean ts
accomplish. To finish the job the Vic
tory Liberty Loan will be offered this
month and the government looks to the
people to show again that speed and
enthusiasm for which America is
known the world over.

A Singular Ship.

Lying at a dock in New York is the
steamer "Faith" which is a wonder.
She is built of concrete, which is prac-
tically the same as stone, and her cap
tain says she rides the waves like a
sea gull. The "Faith" was last Thurs
day discharging a cargo of sugar. She
has made round trip to Valparaiso
and back, via the Panama Canal. The
captain said he had called at twenty
ports, and at every port people would
come abroad, kick on the decks and say
well, I'll be Damned and then go off,"
The vessel seems to be aptly named.
People have faith in her, for she is
about to be dispatched to Europe with a
cargo worth couple of millions.
AS she is described the vessel is
painted and looks not at all like con-
crete structure, but rather like wood
en- ship. Her captain declares that sha
; is as good ship as there is afoat, and
ANYONE who says she is not, doesn't
know what he is talking about"
When ships were first made Of iron
some three-quarters of a century ago,
the world wondered. But an iron or
steel ship seems commonplace CON-
pared with one of concrete. Will
wonders never cease?

shipping point of great magnitude.


The favorable grade of the canal
route from Cumberland to Washing
ton will enable the railroads to deliver
at Washington coal at reduced freight
charges, estimated to railroad traffic
men at 40 cents a ton, and the new
carrier viii open to the Washington
mercantile commercial and produce
markets a populous and productive
country.
The Georgetown end of the canal
railroad will become yard and mar
ket station for the railroad and land
in the vicinity will be used for coal
yards, docks, factories and industrial
plants.
Legislation to make these plans ef-
fective must be based on recommen-
dations made to Congress by Secre-
tary Baker and his advisers. Other
commendatory legislation will be need
ed from the States of Maryland, West
Virginia, Virginia and Pennsylvania.
Il is claimed that the Old Dominion
electric line through Virginia will con-
tinue to serve uninvaded territory, but
through the development of electric
power from which to draw.
Another advantage of the plan which
its adherents believe an important one
is the impounding of the flood waters
of the Potomac so that the spring fresh
cts will be checked and steady supply
of drinking water be made available
for the city of Washington and near
by places.
