Cheap Airships For

LONDON. May 4.-Would-be

the information given out by one

"The cheapness OF the idea has
been greatly exaggerated said
an official Of the air ministry. "lt
has been stated that a 'blimp' can
be constructed for $4,000. As
matter OF fact, Il would cost
nearly $4,000. The cost OF the

$4,000, and then there IL the most
expensive item, which is the en-
velope

GERMANY NOT TO GET
CONTROL OF U. S. SHIPS

The United States Shipping Board
has made up its mind that the great
Hamburg American steamship inter
ests OF Germany shall not gain con-
troll, directly or indirectly, over the
shipping Of the United States through
the lease of it's vast system Of dock
ing, booking and repair facilities of
that company, reaching as they do
into every port of consequences in
the world, says ]. Fred Essary in a
Washington dispatch to the baltimore
Sun.
Assurance to this effect was given
today by Admiral Benson. chairman
OF the board. when informed that
anxiety existed generally throughout
the maritime section of the country
over the negotiations now in progress
between American and German ship
ping magnates for the disposition OF
the Hamburg-American docks.
Bar. Teuten Influenee.
Already the Shipping Board. in
communications to Congress and TO
the public. had laid down the rule
that no Government-ow or con.
trolled steamships would be allowed
to go either into German or British
hands. And that policy has been
taken at full face value. And today
Admiral Benson laid down the further
rule that American shipping must not
fall under German influence by rea.
son OF the dock deal.
A few days ago. ii now develops,
three prominent Germans. Wilhelm
Cuno, Bernhard Huldermann and
Anton Peltzer, managing directors of
the Hamburg American Line. called
upon Admiral Benson. A few days
earlier Julius Mayer, the New York
agent OF the line, applied to the ad
miral for an appointment for his as
sociates. Before granting the visi-
tors an interview the Shipping Boa rd
consulted the State Department to
know IL It would be proper to confer
with representatives OF a nation with
which the United States is still at
war. The department sent word TO
the admiral to go ahead.
Point to Facilities.
When the three Germans were re-
ceived by Chairman Benson. they sur
prised him by saying that they had
merely called to pay their respects;
that they had no business to transact
with the board or the American Gov
ernment adding, however, that they
were in negotiation with shipping in
forests in New YORK lot tne tease OF
the Hamburg American docking sys-
tenn all over the world to Americans,
They pointed out politely that the
Hamburg-American Line owns an
enormously valuable system of docks
and warehouses at almost every port
in the world. but has no fleet to make
use of them. America, they pointed
out. has a great merchant fleet, but
no docks outside OF this country.
As a result Of this interview, In
formal though IL was, n report be-
came current that the willy Germans
were seeking to put something over
on the United states and that the
Shipping Board was about to be vic
timized by them. The suspicion
spread that back Of the reported deal
for the docks was some scheme
whereby Germnnyswould gain tonnage
and participate once more as COM
petitor for foreign trade.

But the answer is. according to "A

Slave Girl Abducted.
The story OF love eonauests which
reflect much credit upon the patriot
ism OF Armenian SWANS was revealed
yesterday by the Cambridge rug deal
er, who said he was well satisfied
with his attack upon the harem OF
Najif Bey.
Yasxmajian was roaming around
the Turkish capital one day when he
met some of his countrymen and con-
hded to them that he would like
wife. an Armenian girl. who might
be IN need of help. The countrymen
had heard of such a woman safe In
the confines of the menage OF Natif
Bey. ~
He. was n grizxied Ottoman, q ter
rible Turk, who was cruel TO his SER
wants, some OF whom had the keys
TO the gilded gates OF his harem. The
rug dealers friends thought the turn
key could be fixed for about $500.
The cash was paid and at midnight,
when the moon dropped behind
cloud. the abduction was accomplish
ed and Wartannay Karabluhian. the
Armenian slave girl, her SON Hogap
and her cousin Anna. were brought
safely, TO the lodgings OF their iibers-

Najif Bey, discovering his loss,
started a search for his favorite. who
had been with him for six years, and
even offered a reward OF 81. 200 in

whom he loved.
BY shrewd contriving, the rug deal
er and his ransomed slaves got out OF
Constantinople on a Rumanian steam
ship for Naples, where they boarded
the San Giorgio for this port.
The job cost $4,000, but Yaszmajian
said yesterday it was well worth the
price.
