Gwendolyn Field, ister, and Mrs. Maldwin Drummond ere given a life interest. The trustees irthur B. Jones, John G. Shedd and ames E. Simpson, left for New York At night. JOUBLE OUTPUT OF COMMERCE VESSELS ‘ ding Program Insufi- “cient to Ofiset Submarines ‘Washington, July 9.—An increase of 00 per cent. in the magnitude of the ipbuilding program originally re- arded as the limit of the capacity it American shipyards and a proposal iy the United States shipping board o ask another $400,000,000 or $500,- 00,000 from congress for construc- ton work have been annaunced by 2hairman Denman. | Instead of building 2,500,000 or ,000,000 tons of steel and wooden hipping in the next eighteen months {s now the confident expectation of lhe shipping board that the tonnage 11 run from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000, The board has been authorized to yontract for tonnage to the limit of 00,000,000. Chairman Denman said hat contracts for this amount now ad been made or Were in early pros- ect, making necessary the additional half billion appropriation if the pro- gram is to be carried to its maximum »ossibilities It is Dbelieved President Wilson >robably within the present week will ssue an executive arder giving to Major General Goethals all mana- erial powers necessary to the execu- Hon of the vast program, both as to wooden and steel ships. It is re- orted General Goethals has been won ver to the wooden ship idea, which ae so bitterly opposed earlier in the {nistory of the shipbuilding campaign. |He Is understood to have Indicated to lseveral persons his willingness to build Wooden ships to the limit of the coun- try's capacity, an attitude consider- lably at variance with that which he lneld at the time he made his famous lsteel dinner speech in New York | An explanation advanced in some wugrters for the return to favor of the wpoden ships Is that the steel men are ot nearly so enthusiastic in their co- bperation with the government since it’became apparent they are not to get tHe $95 a ton originally agreed on between them and General Goethals, ibut are instead to receive 356 as a fjmininum, with a possible advance io $66 or $68, which approximates the { price the navy is paying a ton. U-Boat Effectiveness a Fact. Chairman Denman said: “‘All the Shipping board feared in February as to the effectiveness of the submarines has been realized. The present appropriation of $500,000,000 will not replace in 18 months more than four-fifths of the German des- truction since February 1. It is to America that the farces fighting Ger- many must look for the bulk of the replacement of the submarines des- truction. . “Since our original project was framed the United States has entered into the war and our army in France will require an enormous fleet to transport men, supplies and muni- tions. Submarines may reasonably be expected to appear along our coasts and compel us to curtail our naval as- sistance in European waters. “The mempers of the bord have un- der discussion the investment of an- other $400,000,000 or $500,000,000 in vessels. Such a proposal requires the approval of the President before pre- senting it to Congress. If Secretary McAdoo can suggest a reasonable place for it in our general scheme of financing for the war and the Presi- dent approves, Congress may be asked for a further appropriation of this amount.” Threat Convinces Steel Men. Chairman Denman reviewed the history of the efforts to get mater- jals and yards for the building of ships with which to nullify the effects of German submarine destruction and insure supplies to the American forces and to the Allles. The steel men at first, he said, expressed their inability to aid the Government because of their commiiments to other nations, but later, ,when the suggestion was made that the' government comman- deer the steel plants, they offered to discuss the matter with the shipping officials. It was at this time, acord- ing to Denman, that he asked Gen. Goethals to 2onfer with James A. Far- rell of the United States Steel Corpor- ation, the conference which resulted in an offer to supply the Government with as mu¢h steel as it needed at the tentative prize of $95 a ton. In the meantime, said Mr. Denman, the wooden ship plan was originated and approved by Gen. Goethals, G. W. Sprague, graduate of Annapolis and noted electrical engineer; Capt. W. H. Stayton and Rear Admiral Wain- wright U. 8. N., retired; F. W. Woon, ironmaker and shipbuilder; I. N. Hol- lis, graduate of Annapolis; Herbert Hoover, and W. L. Saunders, engl- neers. ; The board prepared a report of its project with the suggestion that Gen. Goethals be asked to manage it. This was turned over to the Council of Na- tional Defense, which after investiga- tion approved it and returned it to the President. The President gave his ap- proval and adopted the board's sug- gestion that Gen. Goethals be made the manager of construction and he was employed by the hoard in that ca- pacity. U-BOATS TO EXTEND FIELD OF WARFARE Expected to Wage Campaign in All Parts of High Sea Washington, July 9.—Reports per- sist that Germany is to increase the scope of operations of her U-boats and to announce formally that ruth- less submarine warfare no longer will be confined ta the barred zones but will apply to the high seas gener- ally. The German admiralty is un- derstood to be contemplating this move to offset any agreement between neutral countries and the FEntente Allies whereby Entente shipping is relleved by neutral shipping so that the aggregate number of vessels ply- ing through the war zone may be in- creased. As a next move in the game Germany is said to be consid- ering declaring a submarine warfare against shipping generally irrespec- tive of where the vessels are encount- ered. Officials here note that Rear Ad- miral Gleaves, commanding the naval convoy to the Pershing expeditionary force, reported having encountered one submarine well this side of the U-boat zone. This means that the U-Boats are able to operate on a wider scale than within the pre- scribed limits in case it becomes ex- pedient to do so. If the patrol of destrovers becomes too effective in the barred zone it is likely that Ger- many will simply enlarge her scope of operations to seek to nullify the 4ente and the United States. The difficulty of hunting down U-boats over a wide and virtually un- limited area is admittedly great. But there is compensation for the Entente and the United States in the realiza- tlon that the U-boat's effectiveness decreases in proportion to the dis- tance from the boat’s base, as it must limit its time of operations to f{ts needs in assuring for Iitself a safe return. The chances of intercepting steamships bound for Great Britain and France also decrease when the submarines are further out. There are two reports concerning prospective U-boat activities which are now of particular interest to the United States. One Is that the sub- marines will make every effort to cut off communication between the Amer- ican expeditionary force in Europe and their American base of supplies, by lurking in the probable lanes over which re-enforcements and supe- ‘plles may come. There is no doubt entertained that Germany will seek to strike at this transport service wher- cver the chance is regarded best. The | U-boats may 1le in wait jnst outside ! New York harbor to strike at the | American contingents. There have been recently persistent reports of the design and construc- tion of an enlarged trpe of subma- protective measures taken by the En- rine that will be able to come to American shores unaided and unat- tended without dependence of a base on this side. It is, in fact, possible that these U-boats may have been constructed for the particular pur- pose of coping with America’s entry in the war. EXAMINE MOSCOW RAILROADS.
