Twenty-one of the craft aggregating 82,0o0 deadweight tons, were offered recently, but no buyers were found.

 OF KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

New York, Aug. 3.-Far-reaching ac- tivities of the Knights of Columbus in reconstruction, educational and patriotic work were detailed to the delegates at tending the 33d supreme convention of the order here today by Supreme Knight James A. Flaherty.
 We have placed more than 350,000 men in employment without cost to them,' he said, and each man at a liv- ing wage. By this work, I believe we have saved our country some of the dis tressing scenes that have been witness ed in the metropolises of the nations who participated in the war"
 Throughout the period of demobiliza- tion," he declared, "the Knights of Co., lumbus were close to the men, helping them with their problems. serving them in every useful way we could devise"
 Tens of thousands of former service men and women were benefited by the orders educational campaign. the su- preme knight said. Five hundred vet erans are receivizG college educations in representative universities. The K. of c. school system has grown from on etc 73 schools within twelve months and will grow to 200 schools before the end of
 ne year. Teachers are paid 25 per cent. more than public school rate, he said. and this policy will be contin- ued. The ultimate aim of the order is to inaugurate a system of 500 self-sus- taining night schools. These schools will be thrown open to civilians for nominal fees.
 Lecturers, in their campaign against bolshevism, have addressed two million persons in 700 cities. These lecturers, he said, have converted tens of thous- of retic radicalism back to the ways of common sense. We shall continue this work so long as there is need for it. and there will be need for a long time"
 MT. Flaherty said the knights had Nz- perienced an unusual growth in mem bership, the most distinguished acquisi- t1ons in the past year being King Albert and Cardinal Mercier of Belgium.
