This would just about fill our al
lowance in tonnage for this type of
ship. -Four other battle cruisers
are on the ways less than 20 per
cent complete and doubtless could
be converted into passenger ships
economically. Such an expedient
would keep going a nucleus of ship
yard workers for about two years.
In all other classes of construction
We have built or are building for
completion Within two years VIZ
tually our entire quota Therefore
for period of eight years our shin
yards must be idle unless provided
with merchant ship orders.
Must Go Forward.
In a recent public speech Mr.
Lasker, chairman OF the Shipping
Board. emphasized that an Amefi-
can merchant marine is an impor-
tant economic cornerstone; that
such a marine would be an essen
tial element OF naval strength in the
event of war; that the ratio in thi.
kind OF naval strength now existing
is about as for Great Britain COM
pared with one for ourselves; and
then there is little probability of
keeping our shipyards going with
out government aid.
The ease with which large fast
merchant liners cap be converted
into cruisers, scouts. airplane car
riers. ETC.. and the great value Of
these types in naval warfare, un-
doubtedly increases. the real ratio
OF any nation possessing them. We
cannot afford to be backward in this
element while other, nations go for-
ward.

CONGRESS called ON TO
CREATE ADJUSTMENT BOARD

ATLANTIC CITY, N. IA de-
finite program of permanent tariff
legislation to met present conditions,
framed by the committee on tariff
policy was presented to the United
States chamber of commerce at its
annual convention here.
The program calls on congress to
create tariff adjustment board, ap-
pointed by the president and con-
firmed by the senate, with "such en-
olument and tenure of office as will
remove them from political influence
and personal interest"
ANY tariff legislation, said the
committee, should be framed to per-
nit adjustment of individual rates or
particular schedules of rates within
prescribed limitations and provide
for "flexibility in the adjustment of
said rates to the varying fluctuations
Of industrial and trade conditions"
Special tariff legislation to assure
the United States Commercial pros
perity' was urged by Judge Marion
Devries of the united States customs
court of appeals.
The government must arm and
equip it's administrative forces" he
said, with every possible instrument
tally of commercial defenses and ex-
change. We should not be misled
by sentiments of brothely love and
international liberality."
Tariff protection for agriculture
was demanded by Harvey ]. Sconce,
agriculturalist, of Sidell, Ill.

Experiment Con-
Quoted at Caldwell
for Fattening Sheep

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO.-That
sheep can be most economically fat
tened on feeding ration of long hay,
silage and barley or long hay and
barley is the result of an extensive
feeding experiment just completed at
the Caldwell substation of the uni
versity experiment station, e. J.. Idd-
ings, dean Of the college of agricul-
ture announced today. The expert
ment was conducted under conditions
prevailing during the winter of
1920-21. asg 5
Seven groups were used, each COM
posed of from sixty-fye ito sixty
seven lambs. The various feed COM
binations used, and the cost of 100
pounds of increased weight for each
feed were asyfollows: Long hay,
silage and barley, $7.25; long hay
and barley, $7,51; cut hay, silage
and barley, $10.23; cut hay and
barley, s10.37; alfalfa meal, silage
and barley, $13.86; alfalfa meal
and barley, $14.25; alfalfa meal,
syrup and barley, $16.10. These
costs were computed on the following
prices: Alfalfa hay selling at IS;
alfalfa cut hay, $1,000; alfalfa meal,
$1,000; alfalfa meal and syrup,
$4,000; silage, Sc and barley at
$1.66 per hundred weight.
Lambs used weighed in at the
beginning of the experiment at from
6S.27 to TAO pounds and gained
from 22.11 to 1882 pounds each.
San outstanding feature of the
experiment is that were corn silage
was introduced as a feed there was
a distinct result in cheaper fatten-,
ing said Dean Iddings. rs must be
remembered that when alfalfa is
selling at a low price, cut hay is rela-
lively more expensive than when hay
is high, as the cutting cost remains
approximately the same. Further,
because of rain part of the time dur
ing the experiment, the feeding of
cut and ground hay was attended
with difficulties where there was not
good shelter for feeding"
The experiment was planned by
Prof. c. w. Hickman, head of the
department of animal
husbandry and e. F. Hinehart, field
animal husband man OF the extension
division. A. w. Johnson, substation

1t is thought in official circles here
that the Berlin government is well
aware that there remains no room for
procrastination after the end of this
month. Hence, after failing to interest
the United States in her case, as the
French interpret the outcome of the
