FLYERS WILL BOMB
FIRST BATTLESHIP
Supreme Test for Airplanes
Finds the Experts
Ready.

NORFOLK. Va, July 17.-Army
and navy airmen were tuning up
here Saturday in preparation for
what they hope will be the con-
elusive demonstration of the value
of airships against battleships.
The most important of the series
of tests of Cape Charles will be held
tomorrow and Wednesday when the
airmen will. bomb the former Ger
man crusier Frankfurt and the bat
tleship Ostfriesland. The ships will
be the biggest game that airships
have yet tried to bag.
So far the combined air forces
have sunk a former German sub
marine and a destroyer. Following
the destruction of two former Ger
man destroyers by gunfire from
warships Friday. the airmen point
ed out that airships had proved
more effective for quick destruction
of destroyers.
Bombs weighing from 200 pounds
to 1000 pounds will be used by the
airmen in their attack on the
cruiser and the battleships. Here
tofore 300-pound bombs were the
heaviest used. The flyers antici-
pate little difficulty in disposing
of the Frankfurt. but they believe
they will find II more difficult t.
sink the Ostfriesland, which
weathered the battle of Jutland.

Lasker InspectsLe Leviathan
And FavOrs RecOndi-
tioning Big Ship.

NEW YORK, July 17.-In the
course of a talk on board the Levi
athan today, Hoboken, Chairman AL
bert d. Lasker, Of the Shipping
Board, remarked that the boards
losses amount to about 100000
900. That is the highest figure ever
placed on it.
He reiterated that the new board
inherited the greatest commercial
wreck of all time.
1T inherited assets that were
mostly liabilities" he said. The
wood ships alone cost S240,000,0 900
and will be sold. salvaged or sunk
before October /. They are COM
impractical
Soon to Decide on LevIthan.
Several facts about the Leviathan
were learned as a result of Chair
man Lasker's visit to the vessel
A plan to recondition the vessel
and place it in the transatlantic
service will be put before the new
board at once. A decision as to
what to do with it to be made in
thirty days. Before that time the
question of whether the vessel will
be reitted at cost of between
$4,000. 900 and s12, 100000 or salvaged
will be settled. If Chairman Las
ker had his way it will be operated.
Draughtsmen Make Plans.
The project for reconditioning the
boat has progressed so far that
forty draughtsmen are at work in
the grand salon.
The International Mercantile Ma
rinc Company has not merely an
option on the boats services but
contract to operate it for the board
for a term of five years. The plan
of the company is to place the Le-
yiathan in service between here.

SAYSFORD
AIMS TOPURCHASE
WABASH RAILROAD
Said to Plan Own Freight
Line from Detroit
to st. Louis.

TOLEDO, Ohio, July l7.-Henry
Ford is considering purchase of the
Toledo to Fort Wayne Qnd.), Divi-
sion of the Wabash Railroad, 1t was
learned today. Ford visited Toledo
last week in company with a party
of Wabash officials and his own ad-
visers to inspect the division to as
certain what improvement would be
necessary to place the road in first
class condition.
Having purchased the Detroit,
Toledo and lronton Railroad and de-
veloped 1t as an efficient freight car
rier. IL is understood that Ford now
desires an outlet into Toledo and
Fort Wayne. which he would obtain
through acquisition of this Wabash
division.
1t is also stated that Ford has an
eye on the rest OF the Wabash lines
with view to obtaining a means
OF direct freight shipment from his
Detroit factory to st. Louis. In
view of the fact that the entire
system sold for only s23.o00.o00 in
1913, and at the present time is
raid to be in poor physical condi-
tion, il does not seem improbable
that Ford may try to take over the
entire property.
II is thought here that this new
railroad project has a direct con-
nection with Ford's offer of $1,000.
900 for the government nitrate
plant at Muscle Shoals, Ala. Com
pletiOn Of the two dams under the
terms of Mr.. Ford's offer to the
government will make the Tennes-
see River navigable as far as Chat
tarooga. This river would give a
direct transportation outioi from

WHITE HOUSE CITES
GRANT BONUS VETO
Compares Harding's Action
With Refusal to Reward
Soldiers in 1875.

President Harding has found
precedent for his course in urging
delay on enactment of soldiers
bonus legislation.
Following the shelving Of the
measure Friday in the Senate which
precipitated one of the stormiest
sessions in the history of that usual
ly dignided body, the White House
Saturday issued a statement show
ing that President Grant vetoed a
soldiers bonus bill because it would
have seriously embarrassed govern
ment refunding operations in prog
ress at the time.
President Grant" says the state
ment. issued at the White House. lin
the spring of 1878. vetoed n soldiers
bonus bill, which had just been pass
ed by Congress and in doing so he
presented reasons substantially the
same as those urged by President
Harding a few days ago when he
appeared in the Senate"
The text of the Grant veto follows:
'To the House of representatives:
"House bill 3341 is hereby return
ed without my approval for the rsa-
sons. first, that it appropriates from
the Treasury a large sum of money
at a time when the revenue is in
sufficient for current wants and this
proposal is a further drain on the
Treasury. The issue of bonds, au-
thorized ty the bill to very large
and indefinite amount, would seri-
ously enharrass the refunding op-
erations now progressing. whereby
the interest of the bonded debt of
the United States is being largely
reduced; second, ! do not believe
that any considerable portion Of the
eN-soldie-s who, it is supposed, will
be beneficiaries of this appropria-
ton are applicants for it, but. rather,
it would result more in a measure
for the relief of claim agents and
middlemen who would intervene to
collect or discount the bounties
granted by it. The passage of this
bill at this time is inconsistent with
the measures of economy now de-
manded by the necessities of the
country.
"U. S. GRANT"
The measure would have given to
each soldier 800 per year of his
service, with, however. the deduction
of whatever bounties he received
from either the Federal government
or his State.

WOMEN TO ERECT
ANATIONAL HALL
OF REMEMBRANCE
Will Be Used as Main
Auditorium in Founda-
tion's Edifice.

womans hall of fame-the Hall of

ed in Washington as part of the
Woman's National Foundation, are
practically complete, it was an
nounced Saturday.

While no set regulations have
been laid down as yet governing
the selection of the names Of the

cred probable that governors Of all
States will be invited to nominate
commi missions to make the selections,
subject to the approval of a ma
tional group of educators named by
the foundation. Women living at
the present time will not be eligible
for consideration. The names OF

help to erect this memorial will be
perpetuated in the Book of Re-
membrance. a parchment document
to be prominently displayed in the
Hall OF Remembrance.
Surmounting the hall will be a
figure representing Woman Trium-
phant..' Mrs. George Barnett. chair
man of the executive committee of
the foundation. was the first to pro-
pose the establishment of the Hall
Of Remembrance
Three Units Formed.
In addition to Individual mem
berships In the foundation. appli-
cations for which are pouring into
local headquarters. three units of
fifty each have now been formed in
Washington. The trio of groups
have been organized by Mrs. John
NJ. Draper. Mrs Charles +. Hum
phreys, wife OF Maj. Gen. Hum.
phreys, and Mrs. Charles Laird.
As each unit of fifty has the
privilege of sending two represen-
tatives to the annual congress of
the foundation, one of whom shall

officio as delegates to the founda-
tion's first congress.

Mexican LdbOrers Get
Half Industrys Profit

Equal rights of profits between
capital and labor is about to be Of
ficially decreed by the Mexican state
of Vera Cruz. according to official
advices reaching Washington Sat-
urday. Government dispatches from
Mexico City say the state of Vera
Cruz has enacted but has not yet
promulgated a law which requires
that all industries within the state
distribute one-half of their profits
among their employees.
The decree is retroactive to Feb
ruary 7, 1917, and noncompliance
with it's provisions will result in the
appropriation of as much of the
property of the offending industry
as Is necessary to meet the provi-
sions of the law.
