me that this Is the minimum that
should be aimed at. This figure is
given as the lowest we should think Of
and Is no higher because the limit of
available transportation would not seem
to warrant 1t.
"A study of transportation facilities
shows SUFFICIENT American tonnage to
bring over this number of troops. but
to do so there must be a reduction in
the amount allotted to other than Army
needs. 1t is estimated that the ship
ping needed will have to be rapidly in
creased up to 1000, 900 tons by May, In
addition to the amount already allotted.
The use of shipping for commercial pur-
poses must be curtailed as much as pos
sible. The allies are very weak and we
must come to their relief this year.
The year after may be too late. It is
very doubtful If they can hold on until
1919 unless we give them lot Of sup
port this year."
British Sentiment for Ending War.
While grave doubt existed generally
as to the ability of the allies to hold
on until we should be able to afford
assistance that would turn the balance
in their favor, there was no diminution
of the fighting spirit among the leaders

The rare spectacle Of witnesses willing to waive their right to fees end travel expenses to help n con- victed vioiator of the motor vebl- gle laws was experienced tn police court to-day. The gesture of friend liness was to no avail, however. u was q case of accepting the money or permitting the city t0 benent by it. In either case the accused. Samuel Levine. 2s.. of ~ Bronson street, would be obliged to pay, He was lined S2b and costs on the charge of reckless driving, The costs will amount 10 over t30, SIX witnesses being present from New Milford and Washington, conn ana entitled to t3.b0 each. On July ga at the intersection of Chase PDfk- way and Highland avenue n ear operated by Levine crashed into fl machine driven by George Erric. son Of New Milford. The impact was so great that the machine operated by the latter was turned completely over. It came to Il standstiil on its top several yards from the spot where the crash occurred. Jis i've passengers were badly shaken up, but escaped sefi' Ous injury.
 Evidence was introduced this morning indicating that Levine at- tempted to beat the traffic light at the corner of Highland and Chase Parkway, He thought he had the right of way and that the light was turning from amber 10 green inshis favor. II was the claim of Jfrrieson and his mother. Elizabeth who was painfully hurt ih the crash, that the light was green, giving them tbs right of way. Miss Dorothy Emm0ps. who WAS pas sengsr In the front seat of tho New Milford car, also testified that the light was green in their favor and that they paid particular attention to it ns they drew near IL,
 When the cars came together the New Milford machine turned over Levine's machine swsrveh to one side and crashed into a telephone pole. Us WAS hurled out and sur fered q fractured wrist.

Steam Whistles Inefficient.

Government tests have shown that
the steam whistle as made use of on
steamboats, is very ineficient in that
it consumes much power and rapidly
reduces the steam pressure of the boiler
The siren type of signal makes less
drain on the boiler and at the same
time can be heard much farther. The
varying note of the siren renders it
much more readily heard in the dis
lance. Government officials in the
course Of their Investigations discovered
many other interesting things about
sound. For instance, the presence of
fog made very little difference in the
penetrating qualities of sound but alter
nate layers Of warm and cool air had .
very noticeable interference.

B, !, f, MOTORsH|P PENGUIN IN FOR BUSY
 SEASON UNTIL FALL

An extraordinary busy season confronts Capt. Amund Ander- son, skipper of the Bureau of Fisheries motorship Penquin, which departed Tuesray enroute to Seattle.
 April l Captain Anderson sails north from Seattle with 20 or 25 mechanics and carpenters for the Pribilofs. Again, about June 1 he will have returned to Seat tie and leave for the islands with 13 men from the Foulke Fur Company of St. Louis. Sand wiched between these two voyag- es he will pick up about 50 nat ives along the Alaska Peninsula, from Perryville to Umnak, and take them to St. George and St. Paul Islands.
 The latter part of July he will take the fur men back to Seattle. About October will see him back at the islands taking aboard the carpenters and mech anicS, Seattle-bound. And after that will return the native on l the islands to their homes on the peninsula. When he is do- ing nothing else he will be- on regular fish patrol in South eastern Alaska. Outside of that there isn't much for him to do during the season CD
 Winter work consists in serv- ing the natives on St. Paul Is- land, numbering about 27, and the 50 on St. George. These, in addition to the Naval radio per- sonnel on St. Paul Island total ing 16, about eight families. The fur men supervise the curing and packing of the seal pelts; the natives assist them.
