UNCLE WAITS VIEW OF IT.

j. Pluvius turned not the crank
That operates his water tank. u
He watched the baking earth below,
And heard the people wall and woe.
But not bit did he relent;
He didn't seem to care a cent.
Old Vulcan heard the peoples walls,
Where he was making horseshoe

And said: Say Pluve, turn on the
drink!
The folks below are on the blink. :"
But Pluvius replied: Gee whiz!
You'll teach me how to run the biz?
l tell you vulc, those mortal men
Must have a lesson now and then.
For many years I have sent them
!. rain, II.
And crops have grown on every
plain.
Prosperity was at their doors,
Where now the wolf Of famine
roars. 81
And while kept their planet wet,
There was carnival Of debt.
Men blew their substance wild and
free,
AS though it grew upon a tree.
Their stock Of Injuries enlarged;
They bought fool things and had
them charged.
Men, threw their money at the
stars, 5S a.
And traded homes for chug-chug
cars,
And rioted at every chance,
Like drunken sailors at dance.
And so I cooked their blame old
earth,
To teach them what good fortunes
worth.
When they have chewed on husks
q while,
They'll learn to save their little
pile. |"

ADM. FULLAM PROTESTS
 DIVIDING OF FLEET
Says That Policy of Naval Administration is
 ''Reprehensible."

Washington, Feb. 19.-The present American fleet is ''unorganized and un- prepared for war even as a one-plane fleet" Rear Admiral Fullam, retired, former superintendent of the naval academy, said today before the senate naval committee.
 Tt was reprehensible to divide a strong force, but to divide a weak force is worse," the admiral said. Ut is not an exaggeration of state that if there is danger of war, the division of the fleet is a peril to the nation.
 'If we are to have war in the Pacific in five years, we ought to pre- pare for it now. The new base at Alameda will not be completed then"
 Reading from a prepared statement Admiral Fullam said the first thing to do was to consider three plane navy surface ships, beneath the, surface and above the surface.' , 2. s'A one-plane navy will not do," said he. A a M E. z-s < & ,as4st k, stsg gt., N N ftS t s.The navy department utterly neg lects the fsitMrc,a It docs not have n single long range submarine fit to oper- ate with the fleet. Without an air force our navy. cannot exist against a navy with ot1e.'' {
 Senator Lodge of Massachusetts said the committee was entirely agreed that the air and submarine forces should be developed.
 ''The question is what shall we do with the 1916 program" tho senator said "we don't want to leave the country undefcnded. Meanwhile there is nothing tbut the fieet.'
 '.I want. the fleet made ready for war quick" the admiral said.

CRUDE OIL IS USED TO DISLNFECT I,593
That Number of Passengers Forced to Use Stuff Found
 On Atlantic Waters.

Philadelphia. Feb. 19.-Unusual re- sourcefulness in disinfecting the 1.- 5s3 passengers of the Italian stea m ship Ferdinando Palasciano. which docked here yesterday from Genoa was described today by Dr. Yaja Do- nRto. ships surgeon.
 Three days or the coast of the United States the vessel encountered heavy coating of crude oil on the waters of the Atlantic. pr. Donate ordered the oil scooped up in buck cts. Then each man and boy, under the direction of the doctor was forced to bathe in oil. Under the direction of the stewardess the women were accorded the same treatment. The hair of the men and boys was clipped close. while the women and girls were forced to take an oil shampoo. The performance, except for the hair-cutting was repeated each day until the ship reached port.

Washington. Feb. 19.-Se 5retary told a house Investigating commit tee today that when he became chairman of the shipping board after the war the accounts generally were in bad shape and that none had been kept of the 15.000 voyages made by government owned ships up to that time. He decided a general shake+up was due and in it's process. he said, the general comptroller and trasurer lost their jobs.
 'I couldn't find out what one bureau employing 1S0 persons was doing so I abolished it, he con- tinued. Another division was dealt with in the same manner"
 MT. Payne said there was no basis for the charge of Col. F. H. Abadie, former general comptroller. that ho had been raiIroaded out of his posi- tion. Col. Abadie was incompetent and had too many men in his depart mcnt. the secretary said.
 Congressional investigation of the shipping board ended with the exami- nation of Secretary Payne, by the special house committee. A report on the inquiry will be submitted to the house before March 4.
 Secretary Payne criticised the pro- vision of the merchant marine act appointing a board of seven members. A single executive, he argued, should be placed in control. The pro- vision directing the president to nbolish comlnerciaR treaties also was attACke0. ss fl a @s-4aa syf .ns1 as ss-9ss
 MT. Payne. said he was convinced the government could not successfully operate merchant vessels in com petition with private shipping in terests and also said American pas senger lines could not compete with foreign liners unless permitted to sell intoxicants during voyages.
 Too Many Jobs
 Asked why the accounting of the board had been allowed to get into a tangle, Mir. Payne said mo executive could devote his time to building up enthusiasm and constructing a work able orga anization at the same time"
 Mir. Hurley (E. N. Hurley of Chicago, former chairman of the board) was the greatest man that could have been picked for the job. |" said Mir. Payne. "it was his task to create an enthusiasm to sell ship building to the country as war measure, aond he did it."
 While the country was being solidi- fled behind the war shipping pro- gram, actual building and operation of ships overwhelmed those in charge, Mir. Payne said.
 Bowling Denies
 R. W. Boiling. brother-in-law of President Wilson and treasurer of the shipping board, was before the committee again today to deny charges of irregularities on his part made by Tucker K. Sands, formerly :. Washington bank cashier. A. M. Fisher, an investigator of the com mittee also testified. He exonerated MT. Boiling. declaring that search ing inquiry had convinced him there was nothing irregular about private business transactions between Mir. Boiling and MT. Sands.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The house to- day launched into a long debate on a special rule to give the emergency tariff bill privileged status and hasten it to conference on the senate amendments. Opponents of the measure made a de- termined fight against the rule, but supporters believed the bill would be ordered to conference instead of being referred to the ways and means com mittee for reconsideration.
