CABLESHIP DELLWOOD ADVERTISED FOR SALE

Crowded out of service by the march of progress, Alaska's famed cableship, the U. s. s. Dsllwood, will be shifted from the Barbee Shipyards on Salmon Bay into Lake Union at the end of the month and tied up with idle fleet says the Seattle Times of August I25.
 Capt. H. M. Andrews, Assistant Superintendent of the United States Army Transport Service in Seattle, said today that the Dellwood is to be delivered back to the Ship ping Board and will be sold. The dscommissioning of the vessel is result of the powerful Signal Corps wireless system which now connects Seattle with all parts of Alaska, making unnecessary the mainten- ance of the Alaska cable.
 A smaller and less expensive ves- sel will be obtained for use in keeping the Puget Sound cable lines in repair. Officers of the Dellwood will be transferred to other ships of the Army Transport Service.
 In 1929-30 the Dellwood made a voyage completely around the world. She went from Seattle to London, where she loaded cable for : the islands of the Philippines, steamed from the United Kingdom to Man fla via Suez and, after doing cable repair work in the Orient, came to Seattle.

HOUSE VOTE PLAN
ST|RS WOMAN DRyS
Leaders Warned to Seek
Votes Against Motion In.
VoIvlng Test of Law.

The motion coming before the House
MONDAY to discharge the Judiciary
committee from consideration Of the
BecK-Lnthicum resolution is the most
important test Of the eighteenth amend
ment since Its adoption, the Woman s
National Committee for Education
Against Alcohol warned woman dry
leaders throughout the country In a
statement issued today.
Those who believe that democracy Is
safe only as it adheres to the idealism
and moral fiber inherited from the
pioneers should see that their Con-
gressmen are present next Monday and
vote no." the committees statement
declared. This is a contest to see
whether the vast countryside, with its
power Tor self-diScipline and self-sacri-
fee, shall prevail, or whether it shall be
leveled down to the laxity of the big
cities, laxity proverbial in history and
always presaging decline and the fall
of civilization"
This Is no resubmission or referen-
dunn measure, the woman dry leaders
were told. 1T Is a repeal vote initiated
by the vets and fostered by frightened
financ1ers, who have joined them be-
cause they think prohibition interferes
with their power to control Legislatures
and Congress to their financial ends.
These frightened financiers will be more
terrified il they go on with this repeal
campaign to the bitter end, for it must
be carried forward by fomenting law
lesSness and making the underworld boil
UP from beneath. These laWless forces,
once they establish their wet and sub
versive control of elections, would have
very little sympathy with the desires Of
big business"

TREASURY ISSUE
ISOVERSUBSCR|BED
Subscriptions Total Nearly
-Four Times 100000
Offering.

The Governments offer of 5000 ,000,-
900 in Treasury certificates was over
subscribed nearly four times in two
days, Secretary Mills said last night.
The certificates Of Indebtedness, Of
fered the public last Monday, brought
in subscriptions totaling S3402, TBS, 500
before the books were closed at the end
Of Tuesdays business, he said.
The 3ls per cent certificates, to ma
ture in seven months. were bought for
a total of S952 $500, while the 324
per cent certificates, which mature in a
year, brought total subscriptions of
S2,450 100000
Though Mr.. Mills did not say how
much of the total subscriptions have
been accepted it is believed the
amount probably will be slightly above
5000, 1000, 000
The money obtained through the sale
of the certificates, which will be dated
March IS, will be used to meet Gov
eminent expenditures. Thus far this
fiscal year these expenditures have
been ST, 800, 100000 more than receipts:
However, the borrowing is expected
to wind up the increase in the public
debt to meet expenditures, with one
exception. According to Mr., Mills
when the taX-increaSe program ap-
proved by the Treasury is passed by
Congress, increase in the public debt
after the close of the present fiscal
year will be prevented.
Meanwhile, another offering Of Treas
ury securities Is expected to be made
in June. though there has been no
indication as to what form 1t VIII take.
