The average citizen of the United

for the last year it has been a different

At any rate f. ]. Heidel, United

opinion that the dampness of the sister

government has a lot to do with the
sudden demand for passports to that
country. There is no need to try to get
there without one and the only differ
ence between getting a passport to
France and getting one to Cuba is the
price.
There is an average Of four pass
ports issued every week by the deputy
court clerk at Memphis for Cuba and
before any of them are handed to their
prospective owners the clerk receives
SOTO for same. A passport to France
or England will cost slightly more.

UNVEIL TABLET

Ceremonies.
EULOGIZED IN SPEECH
Proverbial Ingratitude of
Republics Is Cited in
Fighters Case.

Cnyeiling of the bronze tablet on
the John Paul Jones Monument in
Potomac Park took place yesterday
afternoon with impressive exercises
under direction of the Sons or the
American Revolution.
James II. Preston, president gem
aral Sons Of the American Reyolu-
tion, paid high tribute to John Paul
Jones in an address in which he
dwelt on the tardy acknowledgment
Of the debt America, owes TO the
great sea captain.
Ingratitude Is Cited.
The ingratitude of republics is
proverbiaI," said Preston, "and there
is no better illustration of the pro-
verb than the life and death of John
Paul Jones.
The United States owes a debt
of gratitude to John Paul Jones"
he continued, second to no other
soldier or sailor of the Revolution,
and il is fitting, even at this late
day, that we offer to his memory
the recognition which 1t deserves
Preston pointed out that for more
than 1oO years no monument was
erected in his honor nor did any
war vessel bear his name, and that
it was fitting that today We atone
in every way in vur power for the
'insubordinatiOn, t. achery, jealousy.

which he suffered in life"

were received by the Shipping Board
yesterday for the Hog Island ship
building plant reported to be the
biggest OF its kind in the world and
which cost the government so'ooo,-
600. Both bids were refused on the
ground that the price offered was
far below the real value Of the

The Shipping Board will now, II is

ward proposals to lease the plant In
its entirety for a long term, the
board having advertised it's sale in
$50 publications throughout the
country and other exhaustive efforts
to secure bids having been made.
Before bids were opened notice
was served by Clarence w. De-
Knight, OF Washington, who said he
represented Frank NJ Zeller. of
Philadelphia, that litigation affect
ing the Hog Island property is now
pending in the Pennsylvania courts.
The suits, 1t was stated, involve

The Hog Island plant covers $40
acres along two and one-fourth
