 The school is for pupils from 10 to IS years of age. IL has been sue cessfui from the start. Most Of the pupils are from out of town but lew Pomfret children attend.
 Mir. Bigelo~ Appreeis,iye
 Mir. Bigelow has expressed his ap- preeiation to those whe did all pos sible during the fire and for the many kindly offers of assistance following the fire.
 The building burned was built in the nineties for club purposes and be- came the Pomfret club. After some years the club disintegrated and the building was purchased by the late Thomas Skelton Harrison. whose es- tate was near by on the opposite side of Pomfret street.
 Mr. Harrison remodeled the club house into a dwelling and leased t to members of the summer colony. It was from the Harrison estate that Mir. Bigelow bought the building.
 Within two hours after the fire was discovered nothing remained of the building but the sidewalks.
 The Putnam fire department was appealed te for help. Chief Thurst0n was out of the city and before the department can leave the city permis- sion to do so must be gwen by the mayor. It was after nine o'clock be fore this permission was secured as the mayor could not at first be To- cated.
 The alarm for a fire outside the city limits was rung. When the truck reached the top of Hospital hill peo. pie coming back from the scene of the fire reported that the building was burned to the ground. The truck was turned around and returned to lire headquarters.

Admiral Palmer maintains. would only
add to present considerable losses,
since the commercial sir iation does
not demand such additions.
The Shipping Board itself, how
| ever, In a letter of August 18, 1926,
to the director of the budget. says
that the board will make an effort
to keep 279 ships mot the 297 which
have been In operation the past fiscal
year, in service this year. President
Palmer declares 1t is his purpose to
maintain at least this average num-
Der or ships In operation the next year.
admiral Palmer submitted to the
shipping Board an estimate of $751;
100000 for the operation of the ships
during the fiscal year 1926-27. The
board. however, has demanded high
er figure. $22,000 900, although the es-
innate of President Palmer was based
on actual operating experience. The
board followed up it's criticism Of the
estimate of President Palmer by
adopting a resolution the next day
that the executive assistants of the
president of the Fleet Corporation be
reduced In number and salary
The resolution was adopted by a
vote OF three to two. The assistants
against whom this resolution was d.
rected are those whose services have
made it possible to bring about the
efncien"y and economy represented by
the reduction in losses from $50, 900 900
to $28.oo0.000 in tho last 20 months
They are equipped to bring about a
still further reduction of the burden
on the Treasury for the ships to $18,-
100000 in the next fiscal year, Ad-
mfral Palmer insists.
Evening star., 1925-09-23

This is an accomplishment which the
American people will laud, particu-
larly as 1t is saving millions OF dol
lars in taxes to them.
But a result of the economies in
operation which is of far-reach1ng i'm
portance, gilmore Importance even than
the economies themselves. is the trans
fer of the Government ships to pri-
vate American ownership for opera
ton in the overseas trade under the
American flag.
AS Admiral Palmer and his aides and
the Government agents operating the
ships have succeeded in cutting down
the losses sustained by the various
lines now operated, SO these vessels
have become more desirable and sal
able to American shipping men.
Within the last year three lines
have been sold by the Shipping Board,
on recommendation of the president
of the Fleet Corporation, to private
owners, who have given guarantee or
continued operation under the Amer
lean flag of the present routes over
period of FIVE years. The sale or
these three lines meant the transfer
to private American ownership ana
operation of % vessels. So much has
the American overseas fleet, privately
ton are the Pacific Mail, operating
from San Francisco to the Orient five
ships at s1.125.000 per ship; the Pal
metto Line, operating from South
Atlantic ports to Europe, six ships for
S370 900, and the Export Line, operat-
ing from North Atlantic ports to the
Mediterranean IS ships for 81 10000.
A fourth line, the Pan-American
operating out of New York to the
east coast of South America, would
have been sold also within the last
few days had the Shipping Board fol-
lowed the recommendation of Admiral
Palmer. The bid was $4,000 per YES
sel-there are four now being operated
by the Pan-American-made by the
Munson Line which is now handling
the ships for the Government. The
Shipping Board. however, divided three
to three on the proposal to Sell, and
it was therefore rejected.
Under the sales campaign worked
up by the Fleet Corporation since, at
the instance of President Coolidge. the
negotiations for the sale of the Gov
ernment ships have been turned over
to that agency by the Shipping Board
-ostensibiy at least-offers of pur-
chase have been made for five other
lines of Government ships.
1t begins to look, therefore, as
though the problem of q privately

owned and operated American over
seas merchant marine was moving to-
ward solution. That this is the case
Is due to the drastic cuts made in
operating losses through the manage
ment Of the Fleet Corporation and
the abandonment Of the wasteful
methods of the Shipping Board when
1t had under it's charge the opera
ton of the ships, with a Fleet Cor
poration under the boards direction,
functioning in name only.
Jealous of Authority. f
President Coolidge, when he tackled
the shipping problem in the Fall and
Winter of 1923-24, became convinced
that the Shipping Board. with seven
members, part of them Democrats
and part of them Republicans. could
not function properly as an admins
trative agency. with a huge business
to conduct. Senator Jones of Wash
ington, chairman Of the Senate COM
merce committee, was outspoken at
the time in his demand that the opera
ton of the vessels should be turned
over to one man at the head of the
Fleet Corporation, and that the board
should be restored to its original func-
tions with regard to the Government
ships and all other shipping, inquisi-
effort of the President has been to
bring about such unified control, and
the effort of the board apparently, has
been to resist the Topping off of it's
power Of administration.
In the final analysis the controversy
therefore SINNERS down to who shall
be the authority over ship operation
the Shipping Board or President
Palmer and the Fleet Corporation.
The charge Is made that the board,
with the exception of a couple of mem
bers, instead of cooperating whole
heartedly with the president of the
Fleet Corporation. as a board of di-
rectors In business concern would
cooperate with the manager of the
business, has sought to embarrass the
Fleet Corporation and to show that 1t
can achieve better results than the
corporation. But the members of the
board, even in their efforts to handle
important questions relating to the
disposition of the ships, have fought
each other in cat and dog fashion. The
sale Of the Pacific Mail Line to the
Dollar Line, for example, was made
by to 8 vote Of the board and was
accompanied by violent charges on the
part of the minority members against
the majority.
Although the negotiations for sale
of the ships are supposedly in the

hands OF the Fleet Corporation, the
'ser up for the final disposition Of
the ships is unheard of In business.
Negotiations are conducted by the
Fleet Corporation and bids are re-
ceived, opened and q recommendation
to the board is submitted. But what
happens? The board rejects the rec
ommendation of the corporation and
then sets to work in some way to get
a better bid for the ships. This hap
pened first in the sale OF 200 ships to
Henry Ford for scrapping purposes,
and Is happening again in connection
with the proposed sale Of the Pan
American Line.
The result, 1t Is said, is to make
the prospective purchasers of ships
have no regard at all for the negotia-
tions conducted by the Fleet Corpora
ton. What incentive Is there to make
real bid If it Is realized that the
board will reject it and then angle for
a higher? Better make a low DID IN
the first instance and then get the
favor of the board by submitting hg-
ures somewhat higher after the board
has turned down the Recommendation
Of the Fleet Corporation.
The provisions of the Jones merchant
marine act Of 1920 looked to the
efficient operation of the merchant
ieet while still under Government
ownership, SO that the great losses
in operation would be curtailed to
such an extent that private shipping
companies would purchase the routes.
The reductions in expenditures and
losses which have been made are
due to the elimination Of unnecessary
expenditures all along the line, to
economy in the use Of fuel, saving on
repair costs, to better operation, to
reduction in stevedoring charges and
in the handling Of purchases and
supplies, to elimination of losses on
foreign exchange and to the reduc-
ton of unnecessary personnel.
Saving on Personnel.
Out of the total reduction made by
the Fleet Corporation, 100000 rep
resents the saving alone on personnel
In the last 20 months. Admiral
Palmer expects to continue cutting
down unnecessary personnel to the
tune of 100000 a month for a con.
siderable time to come.
A criticism of the board members
is that Admiral Palmer is not In
creasing the number Of vessels in
service. but is actually decreasing
them. AS a matter Of fact, wherever
vessels have been laid off 1t has been
only after the approval of the board

The executions will continue at the

The sentences were not carried out
