S166,493,99o PROFIT
MADE BY u. s. ON
SHIPS, SAYS Payne

WASHINGTON. March 12.-Govern-
ment operations in the shipping bust
ness resulted in a net profit OF 1885,
aga, $50 up to last June 20, Chairman
Payne told the Senate merchant ma
rine committee. making public for the
first time complete statistics covering
this financial aspect.
The revenue does not include unpaid
balances due from other government
departments. he said, adding that the
food administration owes the board
about SIS, 100000 and the War Depart
ment about $150,00O.00O.
On Feb. l, he said, the board was
operating 1897 bottoms of S,3S3,000
deadweight tons. including 1,046 steel
cargo ships, 276 wooden vessels, As
tankers and 16 refrigerator ships.
A total of 1873 companies, he said,
held operating charters for vessels
owned by the board. On the first day
Of February, 200 ships were listed as
under repair" 1876 laid up for the
winter" and 1,179 Gin actual opera
ton
No Money Asked.
Not one cent will be asked of con-
tgress by the shipping board to COM
plete its construction program, Chair
man Payne said. since funds from
operation and sale of ships will take
care Of estimated expenditures Of
$307,000.000 for the next fiscal year.
He reiterated that the government
should get out of the shipping business
as soon as possible, and stay out"
VERY much too much has been said
by private interests seeking to buy
ships" he remarked, "since some PEG.
/ pie appear to have the impression that
congress can be induced to force the
shipping board to sell It's vessels for
S100 or $3.50 a ton. This made many
!, prospective purchasers hold off. but
J when the debate is over they will
move faster"

MANY nurses who served overseas
under the direction and in the pay of
the American Red Cross, are not ELI
gible to. membership in the American
Legion, according to a statement is
sued by Franklin D'Olier, national
commander of the Legion, in which
eligibility rules for women are ex-
planned. AS all Richmond nurses, SO
far is is known, were members of the
army nurses corps, the ruling does
not apply here.
"All women nurses who served in
the nursing corps of the United States
army or navy are eligible to member
ship in the American Legion" Mr..
D'Olier says. The American Red
Cross before and during the war re-
cruited thousands of trained nurses,
most of whom Were later enlisted in
the nursing corps of the army or
navy, on request made by the Red
Cross nursing service. There we're,
however, many who went abroad un-
the American Red Cross, who are not
eligible to membership.
"All women members of the navy
and marine corps who were regularly
enlisted upon the same terms as the
men in those branches of the service
are eligible to membership in the
legion.
civilians who were simply civilian
attaches of the military service and
were not regularly enlisted personnel
under commission or enlistment con-
tracts, are not eligible to member
ship.
1.-The above applies to regular mem
bership in the American Legion and
should not be confused with member
ship in the Womens Auxiliary of the
American Legion.
