Shipping. g. Board
Reorganization
Is Announced
Five Vice Presidents Will Con-
duct Affairs of Emergency
Fleet Corporation
Four Named.
Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington. July 1.-THE plan OF
reorganization of the United States
Shipping Board and Emergency
Fleet corporal on adopted by the
board and approved in detail by
President Harding was announced
tonight by a. D. Lasker, chairman Of
the board. = 49,
Under the plan there will be five
vice presidents of the Emergency
Fleet corporation, three of whom
will be in charge of operations, one
the chief counsel, and one in charge
of sale of ships and salvage of ma
terials.
The three vice presidents in charge
of operations will be J. Barston
Smull, ship broker of New York;
William ]. Love, shipping repre-
sentative of New York, and A. J.
Frey, ship operator of Los Angeles.
No definite assignment of duties has
been made, but it was indicated Mr..
Smull probably would have charge
of alocations and charters, Mr..
Love, traffic, and Mr.. Frey physical
operations. ~.
The salaries of the three vice presi-
dents in charge of operations will
aggregate $o5,OOO year. Chairman
Lasker indicated the amount would
be divided practically equally among
the three men, but would not state
the exact salary of each.
The prime object of the Emer-
gency Fleet corporation under the
policy to be followed, Mr.. Lasker
said, will be to so operate the fleet
as to make possible private operation
as soon as consistent with good bust
ness. Government ship lines will
not be operating in competition with
private lines where there is business
only for one line, he said.
Elmer Schlesinger, chief counsel of
the board, will serve as a vice presi-
dent. The fifth vice president has
not been selected.
Chairman Lasker declared, while
the duties of the board with regard
to the large claims against it and the
disposal of property were important,
that the big thing involved was the
operation of the feet and that upon
successful operation of the feet de-
pended whether or not the American
merchant marine would be perma-
nently established.

Quiet Restored
In Belfast After
Serious Riotine
About go Persons. Still Are
Confined to Hospitals
Firing at Republican
Patrols Is Cause

Belfast, July 1l.-Quiet prevailed

ing following yesterdays disorders
and bloodshed. Inquiries at hospitals
showed that persons wounded during

tempt at an organized outbreak.
Rioting broke out Saturday night
and continuing throughout the day,

that the military had to be called.
According to pilce accounts, the
firing at patrols by republicans pre-
cipitated the outbreak. After that the
shooting was almost continuous in
the Falls district.
AS group of Orangemen marched

service in Ulster hall this afternoon
there were scenes Of excitement, the
Orangemen shouting defiance as they
passed streets down which bullets
whizzed. .. IL
Police with rifles came into action
and brought don aw man with a gun.
Late in the afternoon arnored cars
thundered along the avenue, cheered
by the unionists. At North street the
occupants tumbled out and lying fiat
on the pavement opened FIRE. Orange
men lined up with the police and be-
gan shooting on the republican forces

between two fires.

Stillman Wins
Big Victory in
Court Ruling
Dearest Honey and Rolled
Oats and Bacon" Letters
Are Admitted as
Evidence.
Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.

Cnlc4SO IfIDune.Omdna Dec Leuseu VTe'
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, July H.
Surrogate Daniel J. Gleason, referee
in the James A. Stillman divorce
and legitimacy action, handed down
decision this evening ruling on
nine points of law raised by Col.
William Rand, of counsel for the
banker. .... ......
The findings of the referee, final
and subpect to reversal only upon
appeal to the higher courts, were
regarded as a distinct victory for
the banker. Mr.. Gleason, after a
study of all the evidence thus far
presented, sustained seven of the
nine points raised by Colonel Rand
and, according to one authority, viz
tually concluded that the banker had
proven that he could not have been
the father of the baby, Guy Still
man. This view, however, may be
upset when the defense later pre-
sents evidence that the banker and
his wife had lived under one roof.
Given to Papers.
The judgment of the referee, given
to newspaper men here with the
consent of all the attorneys in the
case, restored to the record of the
case one damaging bit of evidence
against Mrs. Stillman-the dearest
honey" letter of May 20, 1919, from
Fred Beauvais to Mrs. Stillman,
known in the suit as exhibit B and
exhibit II. The return of this COM
munication to the record was a re-
versal of previous Gleason ruling.
The referees ruling also made
a permanent part of the case the
rolled oats and bacon" letter, dated
February II, 1919, which, up to now,
was in the record only on "the basis
of present proof"
Nine Points of Law.
The nine points of law were pre-
sented in typewriter form to Referee
Gleason by Colonel Rand several
days after the last Poughkeepsie
hearing. As they came from the
referee tonight, the wording of the
nine was practically the same-ex-
cept that alongside the sustained
points the word admitted" appeared.
This notation did not appear beside
points two and three, since there
was apparently no question of deci-
sion to be made on these-both Of
them being merely statements of
fact by Colonel Rand.
The result, however, of failure to
sustain the statements of fact was
interpreted as definitely removing
DR.. Russelps testimony, and as dis
allowing attempts to introduce, by
letter or conversation, any alleged
admissions by Mr.. Stillman or Fred
K. Beauvais on the paternity issue.
