BENSON URGES
U. S. SHIPPING
Admiral. in N. Y. Speech
Says Large Merchant
Marine Is Our Duty.
fBy Herald Leased wireo


New York, July 1.-THE main
tanning Of q powerful merchant
marine is not only a right but q
duty Of the American people"
This was the keynote Of a speech
today by Rear Admiral William ..
Benson, chairman Of the United
States Shipping Board. He spoke
at q luncheon given in his honor
at the Waldorf.
The admiral laid before his audi
ence not only the importance OF
the marine. SO far as the shipping
board Is concerned, but its present
actual scope and size.
Aegarding the proposed sale OF
the Leviathan,, Admiral Benson ex-
planned. that the board at first tried
refitting this ship for the regular
transatlantic passenger trade. the
lowest bid received was $s.7o5.ooo,
and the board felt that this was
too great a sum to be devoted to
the purpose.
The ship was advertised for sale
providing for a s3.ooo.ooo payment
and IS per cent Of the ships earn
ings for teen years. He may still
act on the proposition. he said. but
felt that it should be laid before
the entire board.
The total seagoing merchant ma
rine of the United States on June
30 consisted. he said, Of S.4o4 YES
sells. of 11.27S.541 gross tons. Oh
this total the Shipping Board now
owns 1902 vessels.

j. s. EMPLOYEES
SEEKING ACTION
ON 8 MEASURES

The National Federation Of Fed
eral Employees has decided to cen
ter on three major issues and drop
the minor ones until the former
are won. according to II. f. Robin
son, who represented the local or
ganization in the national conten-
ton in st. Louis, September G.
Reclassification of all federal
employees and their wages, the
minimum wage bill and a revision
of the retirement law are the three
issues for which the federal en-
plOyes are now contending, Mr.,
Robinson stated yesterday. The
bill which provided for retirement
after the employe is 70 years of
age allows that employe so per
cent of his former salary. provided
this does not exceed $720 a year.
Two and one-half per cent of each
employees wages is deducted for
this fund and if he is paid more
than $1,000 per annum he contrib
utes to this fund more than he is
able to draw out in proportion to
other employees.
The minimum wage bill was
passed by both houses at the last
session of congress but was called
back for consideration. In the
reclassification it is desired that an
employees doing practically the
same work in different branches of
the service receive the same pay.
The allowance for stenographers
in some branches is said to be
much larger than in others where
the same work is per-
formed.

HE'S SOME ROOSTER
AND WILL BE SEEN
IN HART'S SAND

The new William S. Hart picture.
"Sandn' has several touches of
comedy relief that are unique and
among them is one wherein the
star shoots an ear of corn from
under the bill of the rooster which
is enjoying a midday feast in the
roadway. Mr.. Hart proceeds to
shoot each separate grain of corn
away while the astonished bird
looks vainly for his lost meal and
registers complete amazement.
This episode Is bit in the new
Paramount-Artcraft film starring
Mr.. Hart which will be seen for the
last time at the "B" theater today.
The story itself deals with the ef-
forts Of Dan Kurrie, played by Mr..
Hart, to ferret out the true source
of certain robberies at Condor, the
town where he is erstwhile station
agent. 1t also develops his love for
Margaret Young, played delight
fully by Mary Thurman and In the
end he thwarts the villains, wins
the girl and regains his lost pinto
pony.
Lambeth Hillyer developed the
picture and also wrote the scenario,
Joe August, A. S. c.. photographed
the production, the art direction of
which is by Thomas Briefly.

Penitentiary For Theft.

Jack Robinson, who broke his
parole at the Wyoming state peni-
/ Tertiary, where he was a trusty,
and escaped. left last night on the
return trip to his cell in company
of Steve Harle, chief guard at the
! penitentiary, and wearing an
Oregon boot"
Robinson was taken in custody
here last week by Patrolman Ro-
molo Salazar and this officer yes
terday received the 500 reward
offered by the Wyoming prison au-
thorities for the capture of Robin
son.
Robinson, who was serving a
term of from five to seven years
for automobile theft, was a trusty
at the penitentiary and escaped by
the simple procedure of breaking
his faith with the warden who had
made him a "trusty" and permit
ted him to go and come through
the prison gates without being
guarded. One day Robinson took a
truck after a load of hay. He drove
the truck into a ditch and fled.
This was last July. He had eluded
capture since.

lice station, and which will con-
tinue to decorate him until he is
safe behind the stone walls at Raw
Inns, is a heavy metal anklet weigh
ing sixty or seventy pounds. 1t
rests upon a guard which fastens to
the heel of the shoe and prevents

the question. The boot does not

Wet as he would be with brace
let's" or handouts.
Robinson bears the reputation of
being a desperate character, and
the police have taken the greatest
precautions with him since his cap
ture. He is said to have offered
"a thousand dollars for just a
chance for liberty"
