Bluntly Declares
Aid Vital to Keep
Flag A-Sea.
PROMISES MORE
HELP TO FARMER
Bill Reported Out in
House Before His
Address.

President Harding today called upon
Congress to deal promptly with the
merchant marine situation in which
the country finds itself. At a joint
meeting of the Senate and House, In
the House chamber, the CHIEF execu-
tive bluntly told the legislators that
government aid Is essential II ,ne
American flag is to fly overseas; II the
United States Is to save anything out
of the s3,0O0,O0O, 900 which it poured
out in shipbuilding during the war;
and II the country is to be properly
prepared in event of another conhlct.
Faces Divided Congress.
Facing a Congress that admittedly
Is divided over the administration
proposal of government aid Tor
merchant shipping, the President de-
livered a clear and logical argument
in support of the ship subsidy Dill.
He admitted the distaste with which
many Americans regard the term
"subsidy"-the feeling that subsidies
are granted only to special interest.
He denied however. that the ship
ping bill would result in aiding Spe-
cial interests. Rather, he insisted,
1t would benefit the whole of the re-
public.
The President confined his recon-
mendations to Congress today to the
merchant marine bill. He alluded
however, to the distress which the
farmers of the country are suffering
and said that in his message at the
opening of the regular session two
weeks hence he would deal with leg
isIation to aid the farmers and with
other subjects of pressing need.
Talks in Dollars and Cents.
Casting aside for a moment appeals
TO American pride. the President spoke
especially of the saving in dollars and
cents to the government and American
people if the shipping bill goes through.
He pointed out that under existing con-
ditions. with merchant ships operated
by the shipping board. the government is
losing $4,000, 900 year Under the
proposed government aid plan, this loss
he said would be cut in 1Xp- - .
The merchant marine bill, with amend
nents agreed to yesterday by republican
members. was formally reported out by
the House merchant marine committee
today. without a record vote, while
President Harding was arranging to go
to the Capitol.

HAS FIGHT WITH DEvILFIsH
Diver, Caught in Coils Of Sea Monster,
Has Close Call.

Notwithstanding for his life so
feet beneath the surface of Puget
sound, Walter McCray, a diver,
known in marine circles from Alaska
to California came out victorious here
over a giant devilfish.
When the monster attacked it
wound it's tentacles so tightly about
McCray that the diver was unable to
reach the knife he carried for protec-
ton. When one tentacle threatened
to cut off the air supply McCray,
through the submarine telephone
called for short steel wrecking bar.
With this weapon the diver was able
to pierce the body of the devilfish
and at last, with man and monster
still struggling desperately, McCray
was drawn to the surface by the
divers assistant and other men and
at last the devilfish released its hold
and disappeared beneath the water.
The devilfish was said to have been
the largest ever seen in these waters

EVERETT IS FIRST CITY IN THE
WORLD TO USE METERED PHONES

There is no more excuse for tele-
phone service being charged on fat
rate basis than there is for water, gas
or electricity" says William Neal Win
ter, president of the Puget Sound Tele-
phone company. Following out this
theory Mr.. Winters company put 5000
telephones in the city of Everett and
its suburbs on a meter basis April l.
The old fiat rate system has been
scrapped, and Everett is the first city
in the world to have metered phones.
The new rates, schedule Of which
the company has filed with the Wash
ington public service commission, are
based on the actual use of telephones
by subscribers, the same as gas, elec-
tricity or water. Under this system
the company is able, 1t asserts, to re.
duce the cost Of telephone service to
large percentage of It's customers,
as well as increase the efficiency of
its plant.
These change sare made possible
through the perfection of device
known as Telechronometer, which &C
curately measures the length of time
each telephone is used. For more
than year Telechronometers have
been tested on telephones here ant
last December they were placed OF
all phones in this system.
The company asserts, among othel
advantages for the metered plan are
