JOHN BULL RACES
 OVER SHIP BILL
Americas Bid for Shipping Supremacy Denounced in
 London Press

LONDON, Aug. 16-The Joncs Bill, characterized as "America's bill for shipping supremacy is de, nounced by the shipping experts ct the Sunday Observer as retaliatofy and discriminatory.
 He declares that the war has taught other nations the importdrce of owning a mer ;aptile marine and that jealousy has been arouseI throughout the world by the ability and magnificence" of the British mercantile establishment 'In two countries,' he asserts, "in particular, is a feeling of most bit ieal0ugv against our mercantiler .ne. These two countries areS .hce and the United States"
 The writer declares that there is nothing to which foreigners can object in the principal provision of the Jones Bill insofar as it is in tended to coordinate the tramp. rt resources of the United States whether ocean. coastwise or in and SHlDpIHEs Tan dF o' poii anu h#' N'' so as to form one immense uGder- taking 10 force American export and import trade into the holds of American ships.
 Discrimination Claimed
 He says. however, that some of the clauses of the bill were intended 10 be discriminatory against Great Brit ain and Japan. Among these he mentions those which authorize pref erential treatment to American yes seIs in American ports. The insur- ance provisions of the bill, he says. impose the most drastic form of returns. which are based absolutely upon the methods of the German insurance companies. against which, America herself protested so bitterly ureyiOus to her entry into the war. These have been devised admittedly for the purpose of learning every iota of business transacted by for eign companies, with a view to pass ing the same on 10 American con cerns. The object, of course. is that having this information, the gov ernment may oust the American com- many entirely to assist British in surance.
 Methods Are Scored

ALASKAN POLICY
 TOLD BY JONES
Washington Senator Outlines Measures in Store for
 Great Northland

SEATTLE, August 16.-" Alaska must be set free and the time has come to act along this direction" !" according to Sen Wesley l.. Jones. of Washington, speaking. before the Members Council of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. Sen. Jones urged that a liberal development policy be pursued by the nation and referred to the liberality of the government at the time it was opening up the uninhabited west following the Civil War. In discus sing the proposed Alaska Board, in which it is aimed to center au- thority for the conduct of the gov ernment business in Alaska, Sen. Jones said he liked the idea, but saw difficulties ahead of the forma- tion of the Board and troubles for it when it starts functioniug.
 Sen. Jones expressed displeasure at the lack of results from previous efforts to get together on an Alas kaL development policy and stated it would be better for the Board to be organized and not do everything just right than not to organize and do nothing at all
 Puget Sound Outlet. Claim
 Alaska is a sort of part of the state of Washington and this state has a great interest in it's 560, 900 square miles of territory" said Sen. Jones. That is a trade pros pect which cannot get away from us, for Puget Sound is the natural inlet and outlet for Alaska. consider myself senator from Al aska as well as from Washington, I urged the building of the Alaskan railroad. although I knew that it would not bring about everything that we had hoped for, but regard ed it as an essential necessity.
 "The greater part of the 560, 900 square miles of Alaska is still pub lie domain We cannot expect a railroad to pay it's own way in freight and passenger service. Its importance lies in the fact that il will make possible the development of Alaska We must build feeders for this trunk line and enable peo- pie to get in and out of the coun- try more eXpeditiOusly and cheaply

SOPHIA SALVAGE WORK HALTED ON
 EVE OF SUCCESS
Financial Difficulties Cause Abandonment of Attempt
 To Raise Wreck ALL GEAR SENT SOUTH Tugs Recalled When Deep Sea Salvage Co. Unable to
 Pay Way Further

With success almost Fl their grasp. according to officials i1 charge, work on the salvaging of the wrecked steamer Princess Sophia of the Canadian Pacific Line, which went down in Lynn Canal two years ago with the loss of every person on board, today was at a standstill, possibly forever. Financial difficult ties were responsible for abandon ment of the work.
 The salvage tug Daniel Kern, under charter for the past month to the Deep Sea Salvage Company engaged in the salvage operations, cleared from Juneau for Seattle at 10 o'clock yesterday ,s morning with threes-scows containing most of stbe salvage gear and cables on board,
 Teiegrams received by local rep resentatfves of the Deep Sea Sal wage Company state that owing to the failure of the stockholders to respond to a call for additional funds the company is unable 10 con tinue the heavy expense necessary to keeping the tug and barBes in Alaska and that accordingly they were recalled by the Washington Tug and Barge Company, the own CTS.
 Representatives of the company and workmen employed there have stated that the gear designed was of sufficient strength and lifting power to have lifted the wreck from face to a sheltered cove where the repair work could be done. Only s or days more time was needed to do this, they said
 The company's salvage engineer stated today: Tt is unfortunate that with success so nearly in IS grasp the company is unable to continue work. However, negotiations are still in progress, and there is a possibility of the return of ile out fit and renewal of operationa.n
 The strong box belonging teythe wrecked vessel was definitely b. cated late last week by Fred Wal ters. diver employed by the com pany. who made a particularly dar- ing survey of the sunken vessel 10 do so. It is in the plans to have him descend again and send the strong box to the surface
 Workmen who have been employed by the company have not received any wages for several weeks. They have all pooled their intcfeSts and placed them in the hands of Attor- ney ]. B. Marshall According to officials of the company these claims will all be paid off as MT Marshall will act both for the workmen and the company in the matter. selling what gear is now at the wreck to raise the funds. It is hoped that if all the workmen having wages coming stay with the pooi,ng ar engagements there will be TO litiga- ton.
 The Deep Sea Salvage Company, a stock company organized in Se- attle, has spent two seasons operat- ing from a base at Bridget Cove on the Wreck of the Princess Sophia on Vanderbilt Reef in Lynn Canal. Besides many stockholders locally, the company had many in Seattle and vicinity
