Much Money Wasted
By Shipping Board

Washington-The shipping board
was recently awarded the blue ribbon
by Congressman Tague of Massa-
chusetts for it's record Of "flagrant
violations of the rule of economy"
Mr.. Tague showed where millions
of dollars have been wasted. This
has brought no protest from those
who lecture workers because of their
"high" wage demands.
In one instance alone, on the re-
pair of the steamship President Bu-
chanan, the government lost over
100000, said Tague, because the
work was not done in navy yard.
"Just think of it, gentlemen! The
shipping board asked for bids on the
repair of this ship. The Brooklyn
navy yard bid $3,678,0OO. The New
port News shipbuilding company bid
S3,98O,OOO. Yet the contract was
given to the Newport News concern.
The navy yard agreed to complete
the work in 35 days less time than the
private company.
Further than that, 100000 worth
of scrap and salvage was taken from
this ship and became the property of
the shipbuilding company, making
$4,000 in all, and 35 or more days
were lost to the shipping board by
the work being done outside.
"Take the case of the steamship
Leviathan," continued Mr.. Tague.
"You gentlemen who were here in the
sixty-sixth congress remember that
the bids for the repair of the Levia-
than weer about $9,000,000. l went
to New York to get copy of the gov
ernment specifications. They were
refused me, because these specifica-
tions were under the control of the
British merchant marine.
"The Boston navy yard bid at that
time was less than $6,000,0O0. The
contract was awarded to private
shipbuilding company and cost the
government more than S9,OOO,OO0, a
loss to the government Of over $3,-
100000 which could be saved if the
navy yards were allowed to do the
work"
After the private company repaired
the Leviathan the vessel was sent to
the Boston navy yard dry dock, where
she was painted and fitted for sea.
"Since that time" said Mr.. Tague,
"she has had to be repaired again at
an additional expense to the govern
ment, making the cost of repairs
nearly S4,OO0,0O0 more than the work
would have cost had it been done at
the Boston navy yard"
While the house was debating an
appropriation bill for the shipping
board, Congressman Carter told his
colleagues to go back to their consti-
! tuents and explain why salaries OF
from S11 900 to $4,000 year were
voted "to board which did not un-
dertake to justify it."
Remember, you are voting salaries
of $4,000 to one man and $4,000 to
six others when really, according to
their own statement, there is no ne
cessity for seven such high-salaried
men on the job," said Mr.. Carter.

R. R. Brotherhood
Goes Into Big Biz

Cleveland-Warren S. Stone, Grand
Chief of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers since 1913 will give up
the detailed direction of the brother
hoods relationship with the railroads
as result of reorganization plan
adopted by the closing sessions of b.
Of l.. E. convention here.
The new plan brings all brother
hood activities including banking, and
finance, labor relations, insurance and
pensions and real estate operations
under one head. Stone will be the
president of the combined depart
ments. Each department will have
a subordinate head under Stone.
The brotherhood has decided that it
has branched out far enough to or
ganize on the same basis as the steel
corporation. In the new plan the
president will hold position analog-
Gus to the chairman of the board in
the steel corporation.

marily to banking and finance. If a

A SMOOTH MACHINE

Cautious Cal was nominated,
Just one ballot was enough;
Hiram Johnson and the others
You'll observe were treated rough
1t was all framed up beforehand,
And the throng of delegates
Simply sat and answered "Coolidge'
When they called the roll of s'/.tes
Such a quiet, dull convention 2
Never was held anywhere;
1t was almost like meeting place
Of sacred song and prayer.
Wise and foxy politicians
Marveled at the smooth machine
And the way it operated,
For it's like was never seen.
Cautious Cal is keeping silent,
Doesn't hardly make a sound;
But his army Of lieutenants
Will soon pass the bunk around.
On the highways and the by-ways
They will praise the G. o. P,
Always careful not to mention
Denby, Fall and Daugherty.
