A FOREIGN Ship.

Homer L. Ferguson, president of the
! chamber of commerce of the United
States has stirred up the patriots over
the reproduction of foreign ship be-
ing on our twenty-dollar bills Making
speech recently, and seeking to i'm
press his auditors with the fact that
this country has entirely too few ships,
he whipped out twenty-dollar bill
and declared:
"Why, even the ship reproduced on
this bill is one that was taken over
by this country during the war. 1t
flies the American flag, all right, but
1t Is a foreign-built ship"
Examination proved he was abso-
lutely correct. The ship has four fun
nels, and there never has been a four
funneled ship built In this country for
our foreign trade.

SEEMINGLY NO AGE LIMIT

Their caIIow Youth.

There Is no age limit TO divorce In
Oregon woman at the age of eighty
two years is suing for a decree from
her husband. who is a callow STRIPPING
of seventy-one summers. This seems
TO be another case of too much mother
in-law, as the wife asserts that her
husbands love has been alienated and
undermined through the work of his
mother, who is now ninety-four years
old and who never did like her, any
how. They have been married some
ten years now, and the wife said that
when the husband took her money to
buy an auto for his mother and
wouldn't let his wife ride in 1t, she
knew that his love was dead When
she demonstrated the husband coldly
Informed her that she could leave the
house. When the wife said that the
home was her own and bought with
her own money the husband replied
that might be so, but he had thought
fully had the deed recorded in his own
name. Now she has to appeal to the
courts. 1t is rather rough when a
bride Of eighty-two has to compete
with ninety-four-year-old mother-in-
law for the affections Of her husband.

Clinic HAS PROVED WORTH
Organization Established by Boston
Firm Well Worthy of Imitation
by Other Employers.

A pioneer medical clinic, established
10 years ago to protect the health of
800 employees, and gradually enlarged
and expanded until it now cares for a
total of 2,700-that is the record proud
ly held today by well-known Boston
firm. At, the time of its organization
the medical director was In charge of
the clinic in the capacity of director
and visiting nurse. Now the clinic is
! in charge of practlcing physician and
surgeon, assisted by three full-time
graduate nurses.
During the influenza epidemic of last
winter, over 800 employees were treat
ed per day, with only six deaths during
the entire course of the dreaded dis
ease. All cases were given careful
individual attention and, in instances
where no family doctor was in at
tendance, immediate arrangements
were made for medical care.
1t is the policy of the nurses in the
clinic to advise all employees with
whom they come in contact to be in
sured, an activity which the firm itself
handles through an employees organ
ization. The purpose of such advice
is TO secure insurance for all en-
ployees In order that they may receive
its benefits after one weeks illness.
This arrangement does not place a
premium upon the employees being i'll,
and ut the same time the clinic CO.
operates in the matter of insurance.
A dental clinic is in u formative
state and, no doubt, will be established
in short time. The plan and method
of administration and organization is
simply in the making, but 1t is safe to
say that the dental clinic will be.as efii-
cient as the medical clinic.
The Modern Hospital, in describing
the clinic, says that it has fully proved |
It's value in protecting the health of |
he employees of this particular COM
Dany and merits the commendation
md imitation of other mercantile and |
Industrial establishments.

WHATTHEcuRTIs COMPANY COULD HAVE DOM

On September 10, 1917, the Curtiss firm, one of the pioneer
aircraft building firms in America, and the largest producer by
far, received from our government an order to build 5000 fighting
Spads. This order was suddenly cancelled November z, 1917.
Could it have been filled? Read the answer made by Vice Presi-
dent Keys of the Curtiss company before the congressional in
vestigating committee:
MR.. Congressman FREAR: How many men were
you employing?
MR.. KEYS. Eighteen thousand and seven hundred.
MIR FREAR: What was your possible production
capacity?
Mr.. KEYS: plant was designed for a maximum of
We contracted in September, 1918, to deliver 100 ma
chimes a day.
Here was the greatest American firm in aircraft productions
able and willing to turn out 5000 planes a month. Why its con
tract was cancelled, and why its services were not used in our
great crisis, nobody has explained. The Curtiss company built
I,411 planes for the navy, and the navy had all the planes it
wanted when it wanted them. The navy was abundantly sup
piled from this one factory but Secretary Baker turned his back
on the great opportunity.
The members of the aircraft board were automobile builders,
bankers, politicians, and a man who had been in the cash register
business in Dayton. One of the number had been convicted by a
Jury and sentenced to Imprisonment for one year. This was
Edward A. Deeds, and Judge Hughes recommended, after investi-
cation, that he be court martialed for crookedness in the aircraft
business. The Judge advocate approved the recommendation.
A hearing was held, and Deeds was whitewashed by. his own
associates, who were connected with the same government con
hact and used as witnesses.
Before the senate committee, Senator Reed, Democrat, brought
ut the fact that John ID. Ryan, director of the board, and William
C.. Potter, assistant, were both ignorant of any knowledge of air
craft work.
SENATOR REED: And he never had anything to do
with aircraft?
MR.. RYAN,: / think not.
SENATOR REED. There was not a single one of
these men Potter and assistants) who had had expert
ence so far as you know in aircraft production?
MR.. RYAN: Not so far as l know.
, 1920-10-21
BAKER AND ASSOCIATES TO sTARTLE woRLD

These five craftsmen, Deeds, Coffin, Walden, Montgomery and
Potter, who never had seen the details of an airship in their lives
were left by Mr.. Baker to pool their inexperience and astonish
the world. For these gentlemen, who didn't know "a damned
thing" about it, had decided not to pay any attention to experience
in aircraft, not to build such airplanes as the French and British
and Italians were using-no, indeed! No such commonplace thing
as that! They would build one motor, different from all airplane
motors that had been successful, and then all kinds of planes
should be adapted to this motor. They called it the Liberty motor
and started to design it. They designed it around the Delco Igni
ton system, although the magnetic system had always been used
for airplane motors. 1t was arranged that the first 20 1000 planes
should have the Delco ignition system.
This system is controlled by a subsidiary of the United Motors
corporation, and recently was largely owned by Colonel Deeds.
Deeds received 10000 shares of stock of the United Motors cor
poration when he turned in his Deco stock to the corporation.
When he took up his duties with the government, he held 1880
shares in the United Motors corporation and had an interest in a
pool of $3.50 additional shares received in November, 1917.
On August %, 1917, Deeds wrote the secretary of war that he
had severed his connection with the United Motors corporation
and made a genuine transfer of his stock. This was squarely
untrue. The only transfer of those shares he made was to turn
them over to his wife and that was not done until October 13, 1917.
