3 SHIPS MISSING;
 PIRACY SUSPECTED
Crew of Fourth Mysteriously " V'nishes From Sight

. Wilmington, June 21.-The crew of an American ship is missing, and what seems to be conclusive evidence has been obtained that the men were taken as prisoners to another vessel and carried away to parts unknown. II they were not murdered. -.
 A second American ship is long overdue, and two other American ships are unaccounted for under cir cumstances that lead to the belief that their disa ppearance is in some way connected with the capture Of the crew of the first mentioned vessel.
 The United States government has undertaken to solvt these mysteries of the sea, which in the opinion of oftlc- ials' expressed today, point either to old time piritical methods off the Atlantic Coast or he seizure of the vessels for the benefit of Soviet Rus sia.
 Several months ago the flve-masted SC hooner Carol Deerinlg of Portland, Me, was found abandoned off Dia- mond Shoals, Mort Carolina, with all sails set and her officers and crew missing. The Deering went ashore near Diamond Shoals Lightship, and when the men of the nearest ive-sav-
 lg station went aboard they found

The bill would fine wom- en &25 for the first time they were caught smoking in a public place and S100 per cigarette for each sub sequent offense. The same fines would apply to the proprietors of public places. which Representative Johnson has defined in detail in his bill.
 He said yesterday afternoon he had long objected to seeing women smoke in public. but the last straw came last night when he was walking on F street in front of a moving pie ture theater.
 And l saw young lady take a cigarette out of the hand of the young man she was walking with and take a puff herself"
 Smoking is even worse than whisky for women. Representative Johnson said in discussing his bill.
 The girls at college learn how to smoke and then they go home and teach it to the other girls, so that smoking by women is constant ly on the increase" he continued.
 'It is a bad thing and is going to contaminate the race. A woman who smokes and nurses her child transmits the evil effects of smoking.

 A little later a bottle came ashore near where the ship was found, and in it was a note purporting to have been written by the mate of the schooner, which read as follows:

 The crew of the Deering. includ- ing the captain, numbered 12 men. and not trace of them has been dis covered. The Deering left Portland last December for Rio de Janeiro with a general cargo.
