to cost $277 900 900, would accom-
modate much larger ships.
Last summer Congress authorized
the new locks, designed to minimize
the danger of damage from air at
tacks and to be reserved for the
Nays use to lessen chances for
sabotage. Well-informed members
said the locks probably would be
completed before the suggested new
super-battleships could be finished
Mas Wants Larger Ships.
Mr.. Mas, an advocate of separate
fleets for the Atlantic and the Pa
cific, said the Navy shold forget
$4,000 and even $4,000 ton battle
ships and &c to 10000 or 10000 tons
and forget the Panama Canal"
TN other words, have two fleets
with fewer but larger battleships,
he added.
Mr.. Mas declared that if this
country built super battleships no
other nation could afford to follow
suit. He criticized what he called
the policy of merely matching the
naval developments of foreign pow
ers.
Contention Supported.
Support for Mr.. Mas contention
on that score came from both Mr..
Plumley and Mr.. Scrugham.
I'm sick and tired of lust match, ;
Mr.. Plumley said. This matching
game Is absurd. I want a winning
team"
"An 80,000-ton battleship, I am
satisfied, could have seven or eight
turrets and mount 20-inch guns"
Mr.. Mas asserted. 1T is safe to
say that 10 such super-battleships
would be more effective than Is of
the 35,000-ton SIZE"

Housing Program

hUuHiHk FTUkEum
 There appears little chance for any appropriation for participation in c federal housing program. The aldermen some months ago turned down e similar program, which would have brought $1,000,000 or more of federal funds into the city
 The housing program is backed by A. r. of L., and 0. I. o. unions, several welfare organizations, the Pearl Street Neighborhood House the Socialist party, the Communist party and other groups.
 The aldermen are expecetd to take no action on the budget tonight, un- less the hearing should turn out to be unexpectedly brief. If all pres- ent are not able to be heard, an. other public hearing may be sched. uled.
 Alderman Thomas r. Bane, Re- publican, has raised the question of whether or not the state law does not require q reyaluation of city property in i040. If 1t is found that It does, an appropriation for that purpose may be made.
 Budget Is Thorough
 The budget drawn by the finance board is one of the most thorough in the city'S history. In printed form, 1t fills 6 book of 8s pages Appropriations for each department are listed in detail, and the name and salary of every job on the city payroll Is given.
 Appropriations for most depart ynents have been cut down, but some have been increased, notably the welfare department. This depart ment's appropriation was purposely set low last year, with additional funds being supplied by the board of finance from special emergency funds as needed.
 Several new items are listed among them an appropriation of 95,000 for the city plan commission Changes in other items have been made because of legislative action requiring payment of salaries to @ number of board members who were previously unpaid.
 The total grand list for i04O is Si66.600,0 900. Of the $e,158,0 2.72 needed to balance the appropria. tons, 1t is estimated that $4,078,- $50 will come from current taxes and the remainder from miscel- laneous sources.

GERMANS TRIED SIXTY RAIDS
(Ccntinueo from Page D

NSVAAthAueu kEuAn EbSS ~ were partly due to serious losses in reconnaissance planes. l However, the possibility of a big scale action was always in French minds, It was said that the three months of relative calm on the Western Front had given the French time to perfect their Maginot De- tense line with new concrete pill boxes, tank traps, mines and trenches In advanced areas.
 The Inc wAs believed now to be safely isnpregnable, particularly as the Flanders and Jura Mountain wings, on the west and east, had now been completed. At the Etart of the war there was some anxiety lest the Germans essay 6 flanking at tack. Now, it was said, any such attack must fall.
 Three Germans Surrender
 Paris, December 2. - (Up) = Three Germans, on patrol duty in No Mans Land today, surrendered after Q sniping duel with Q French sacrifice squad".
 Robert Oubron, of the sacrifice squad" and one of Europe's most famous bicyclists, led his captivGs to 6 dugout. There, they were able to see each other closely for the first time.
 "Oubron" one of the Germans shouted.
 "Stoepell" shouted Oubron.
 The prisoner was Karl Stoepel famous German racing cyclist.
 He and Oubron had known each other for years and had competed in the same bike races in France and Germany.

pilots would remain with them, fighting for Finland.
 This article said also that Ger many had supplied munitions to Finland up to the outbreak of the war and that thereafter German authorities apparently tacitly per- mitted the pasasge Of arms to Fin' land from neutral countries.
 Italian Planes On Way
 It was suggested that Italian planes had landed in Germany to refuel on their way to Finland.
 This article checked with irforfi1- ation in diplomatic quarters which said that Italian planes were being flown across Germany.
 It was regarded as noteworthy that Premier Benito Mussolini had permitted Fascist students to hold pro- Finnish, anti Communist denl- onstrations In Rome and other Italian cities.
 Diplomatic quarters here asserted that there was far more genuine enthusiasm in Italy, and q far more earnest desire to aid Finland, than was the situation when Italy was aiding the Spanish National. ists.
 It was. to be remembered also that arms going to Finland, notably from Britain and Italy, are going with the specific permission of the governments which control arms exports.
 Authoritative quarters here as- serted that Germany even after the start of the war with Russia, had offered Finland new rifles at lower prices than were asked for such arms before hostilities started. It was said that previous supplies of rifles. including some made in Czechoslovakia. had gone to q northern port" and had been sent thence to Finland by rail.

In this connection 1t has been necessary to take applica. tons and to verify the legal and administrative eligibility of each candidate before recommending them to the state selecting agent for enrolment. Upon receipt of acquisitions for boys to go to camp notifications have been sent and ar. arrangements made for transportation to the examining centers. In ac. cordance with the requests Of the state selecting agent we have in- vestigated and determined the va. lidity of requests for changes of ale lotnnent, offers of employment and similar services on behalf of en- rollees tn the Corps.
 At this time we again take the opportunity to express our gratitude for the interest and cooperation of the churches, schools, dispensaries. various private agencies, social and service clubs and other public de. partments which have aided us i'm. measurably in the ever increasing volume of work.
 We wish to thank His Honor the Mayor, the Honorable Board of Commissioners of Public welfare and the entire staff for their valued service and cooperation.

.SECY. OF GERMAN
 CONSUL KILLED

tContinued from Page D neighborhood. Neighbors were sus. picious of him and several reported that @ trailer containing radio eend- ing and receiving equipment had been parked in front of the house last summer. An aerial on It's roof was seen to give off "blue sparks" 1" suggesting to them that 1t was very powerful.
 Neighbors told police that two agents of the federal bureau of in. vestigation had questioned Engei- berg last August after receiving c complaint from his next-door neigh Dor, Fred E. Fuller, who is spending the winter in Miami Beach, Florida But the TBI denied that such Q complaint ever had been made.
 Translating Letters
 Detectives were translating letters in German found iil drawers and Q chest in his second.floor study.
 They learned that no woman ever had been seen to call at the house but that Engelberg frequently had had men visitors, some of whom ar. rived in expensive automobiles.
 pr. Hans Horchers. the German Consul General, declined to com. ment. He announced through sub- ordinates that he had no irforma- ton regarding the murder other than given him by police. He will make Q report later to the German Embassy at Washington, which will transmit 1t to Berlin.
 Engelberg came here from Chicago more than year ago because he felt that the salt air of the coast would relieve 6 sinus condition. He had worked in the Chicago corsu- late only two months. having gone there from Athens. Greece. He was native of Hamburg where his mother is living, was a graduate of the University of Berlin and was a Doctor of Philosophy.
 Found By Attache
 The body was found by Frederick Doell, an attache of the consulate sent to find out why Engelberg had failed to report for work Tuesday and yesterday. Receiving no answer when he rang the doc rbell, he went around to the rear, found that door open and entered.
 Upstairs he discovered his col. league almost decapitated. Blood was spattered over the wall beside the bed, attest,ng to the force Of the blows, and on the floor was c clotted pool. Medical examiners said he had been struck three or four times with great force, probably with a hammer or club. A search of the premises and of 6 cemetery behind the house failed to disclose the wea. por.
 No Berlin Comment
 Berin, Dec. 7-(UP) = Official quarters declined today to comment on the murder of Walter Engelberg, secsecretary to the German Cousul General In New York.
 Cher authorized quarters said no statement could be made pending receipt of full details.
