TONNAGE NOW IS 3,100,000 Construction of Wooden Vessels on Atlantic Coast Is Delayed, It Is Declared, Because . of Dif ' fieulty In Getting Lumber. WASHINGTON-. Sept. 26. The mag nitude of the American Government's shipbuilding programme was revealed today for the first time in a statement by the Shipping- Board, showing that nearly 1200 merchant vessels of about 6,000.000 tonnage -will bo completed within a little more than a year. Completion of ships commandeered In shipyards and of vessels actually or about to be contracted for will give the country a fleet of 1600 ships with a total tonnage of more than 9.000,000. In addition to this the board will complete in 1919 vessels already contracted- for and under negotiation of about 4,000.000 tons. A billion dollars lias just been asked of Congress to complete the programme. The United States is now leading the world in shipbuilding, and if the present rate of construction were kept up would become the leading shipping nation of the world in a. few years. America Is In Lead. America now has a total of over seas tonnage of 2,400.000, to which has been added about 700,000 tons of Ger man and Austrian shipping. Japan has 2.000,000 tons; Italy, 1,950,000; France, a,SiO,000; Norway, l',650,000; Holland, 1,475.000: Sweden. 860,000; Denmark, 690.000; Spain. 750,000; Russia, 550,000; Portugal, 200,000, and all of South America, 800,000. The progress of the emergency fleet corporation in getting vessels con etructed was outlined In the statement, as follows: "During the last two months there have been awarded contracts for 118 wooden vessels of 3500 tons dead weight capacity each to 27 yards. There had previously been awarded contracts for 235 vessels of the same type and 58 composite ships, a total of 411. with a tonnage of 1,460,900. Oreat difficulty has been experienced on the Atlantic Coart in obtaining suitable lumber and it Is anticipated there will be a greater delay in. their completion than was expected. Steel Comttructlon Heavy. "Since August 1 there have been warded contracts for 155 more steel cargo vessels of 1.663,800 tons to six yards. Previous to August 1 70 steel cargo vessels of 587,000 tons had been contracted for with ten shipyards. Therefore, at the- present time, the total number of steel vessels under construction is 225. with a tonnage of 1,663.800. "The Fleet Corporation has requisi tioned 403 vessels of about 3,000,000 tons. The Shipping Board is making every effort to obtain engines, boilers and other equipment for the vessels to ..be built and in most instances con tracts have been placed." An industrial service department has been established which will assist shipbuilders in obtaining labor. It also has established a system of vocational schools to train workmen. Chairman Hurley, of the Shipping Board, and Admiral Capps, general manager of the Fleet Corporation, expect to start soon on a tour of the country's shipyards to inspect the work. RECORDS OF TTJRBIXERS OUT Speedy Iiiners Carried Many Travel ers and Many Tons of Cargo. From the time the liners Great North ern and Northern Pacific entered on , the San Francisco-Flavel run in 1915 until they were withdrawn - last week and ordered to Bremerton to enter the Government service, they transported a combined total of 154,975 passengers and 481,444 tons of cargo. The Northern Pacific carried 82,200 passengers and 85.342 tons of cargo, and the Great Northern 72,775 passengers and 196,102 tons of cargo. The Northern Pacific had made 165 voyages, and the Great Northern 119 voyages. One report from the Navy-yard is that it will require months for the two !big steamers to be converted Into the kind of vessels Uncle Sam contemplates, and that their steaming radius will be materially increased. There Is con siderable speculation as to whether the steamers will be used as auxiliary cruisers or troop transports. rriilTZER LOADS FOR JfORTH Pilot Schooner to Make Trip to Tn- alaska for Portland Interests. Many Portlanders saw the pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer for the first time yesterday, when she was ehifted about the harbor gathering gear and supplies for a trip to Unalaska.

FOUR OFFICERS IN SERVICE Vessel Xot Expected to Be Comman deered Soon Capac'ly Load of I'reight Carried atid 293 Pas sengers Taken, Many Left. Persons accustomed to seeing the blue peter flying from the foremast of the liner Rose City, sailing day, gazed a second time and some rubbed their eyes yesterday, for there was another emblem fast to the halyards there, the United States Navy F,eserve force flag. It was the nrst time that flag has been seen in Portland harbor, and it meant that Captain Clyde Parker, mas ter of the Rose City, Is a member of that body, though he Is not alone as far as the liner's company Is con cerned, for Chief Engineer Townsend, Fred Attller, second assistant engineer, and Second Officer Clausen are enrolled and ready to respond should the call come for active service. The flag has a blue field with a white eagle as well as the National shield, the latter being in red and white. The turbiner Northern Pacific, Captain Hun ter, was the first to fly the flag on the Pacific Coast, and the Great Northern. Captain Ahman, was second, so the Rose City is third on the list. The urbiners are now at the Bremerton Navy-yard, having been taken last week by the Government, but it is not believed the Rose City will follow suit oon, as there are other vessels ex pected to be drawn before she is com mandeered. Before the Rose City was ready to sail yesterday accommodations were at premium, and it was estimated that fully 100 persons could have been added to the passenger list had there been pace for them. As it was the liner carried 293 travelers, and until the last minute cargo went aboard, so she had capacity load all around. Steerage ravel is unusually heavy, and it is thought that on the next voyage the teamer will have extra berths added there. F. P. K. Lawson. ex-purser on the vessel but who has been ashore in the San Francisco office for several months. as returned to the berth, Bert Kddings aving given up the purser's responsi bilities to become traveling freight agent for the line. H. F. Ruger. ex raveling freight agent, was made chief lerk on Ainsworth dock, and Mr. Kddings takes up his duties. TEKMIXAL SAME XOT FAVORED Realty Board Would Have Title of St. Johns Project Changed. If the Portland Realty Board is suc- essful, the name of the St. Johns ter minal, which has to be given to the grain elevator, and additional water erminal facilities to be located on the Malarkey and Ogden tracts, will b changed. The matter is to come before he Commission of Public Docks this morning, as J. Allen Harrison, repre senting the Portland Realty Board, took it up with G. B; Hegardt, Chief Engineer of the Commission, yester day. Mr. Hegardt contends that in other ports, docks, wharves and terminals are customarily named geographically. That practice has been followed here ately in renaming Municipal Dock No, the Fifteenth-street terminal. Dock No. 2 the East Washington-street ter minal and Dock No. 3, at St. Johns, the Pittsburg-street terminal. It has been suggested the new terminal be called the Portland terminal or Portland grain elevator, but the argument against that is it would not indicate the location, and that in a short period the elevator might be the least impor tant of the developments there. WINTER RATES ARE ARRAXGED Pacific Steamship Line Decides on Special Passenger Fares. Following the Summer season, which Is asserted to have been a highly sue cessful one from the travel standpoint, the Pacific Steamship Company is plac ing in effect a series of special round- trip fares for the Winter period, tick ets to be placed on sale November and discontinued February 2S, with the final return limit March 31. The rates will apply from British Co lumbia and northern cities and will be $35 to San Francisco, $50 to Los An geles and $54 to San Diego. Children under two years are carried free when accompanied by parents and those be tween two and five years are to. be charged half fare, which will be $6 to San Francisco, $10 to San Pedro and $11 to San Diego. Frank Bollam, Port land agent, has received full informa tion as to the rates and schedule from E. G. McMicken, general passenger agent. Marine Notes. J3ound for Portland direct, the Emerald lino steamer F. A. Kllburn left San Fran Cisco at 8 o'clock yesterday morning. It is reported the Kllburn will not make Marsh field and Eureka in the future, the Break water being held on that route, so that more through business can be taken care of. Coming here to load Umber at Inman Poulsen'a, the new motor schooner Seaborn sailed from Seattle at 9 o'clock Tuesday night. Oil and ballast being aboard, the. new motor schooner Madrugada, captain rred- erlck Rouse, shifted from the Star Sand Company's Randolph-street dock to th North Pacific mill yesterday to take 400.000 feet of number. fahe will finish at Inman-Poulsen'a. Captain Percy Davis has returned from a hunting trip in Southern Oregon an resumed the skippership of the steamer America, relieving Captuln L. If. Holman. In a communication to United States Steam Vessel Inspectors Edwards and Wynn It Is indicated by W. J. Gramba, In charge of Government nautical schools in the North west, that a conference he is to attend at Boston, about October IS, will consider mak- tnir entrance to schools less difficult. On of the principal objections to the exiBtln rulps Is that men must have had two years' experience at sea. Men who have seen ea service and put in additional time in light house and Coast Guard work are regarded by some mariners aa eligible to take school work. Movements of Vessels. PORTLAND, Sept. 28.
