It waa found that Ferris was prepar

the Jahneke Company saved a large

Ferris' Letter Vague. '
4. Ferrla letter of explanation,
though apparently very carefully
drawn, is vague and Inconclusive and
does not satisfactorily explain the com
promising position in which ha has
been placed in any one of the transac
tlons referred to," says the assistant
counsel.
The first document considered by
tbe Senate commerce committee today
was Ferris' letter of explanation of
January 21, submitted to Admiral
Bowies. In it Ferris saya that April
IT. last, he negotiated with tha Ship
ping Board, offering to prepare plana
lor cargo ships.
On April IS. ha saya. General Goeth
ala urged him to enter the employ of
tfis Shipping Board aa naval arc hi
tect and ha agreed to accept tha offer
at a salary of 13000 per month, ths
Government to pay all costs of ths
work, draftsmen, etc, "plus 10 per cent
for overhead." That same day, ha says.
Goethala accepted bis offer in all re
spect, aave that he cut the aalary to
12500 per month. Thla agreement con
tinued In effect until September IT,
last.
aaarta Boat Paya Fee.
In May of last rear, aars Ferris, tha
Submarine Boat Corporation asked him
to prepare plans for a 6000-ton fabri
cated. steel ship and agreed to pay him
a 13000 fee. He says hhas not received
thia fee. but ha does not say that sub
sequently the Government advanced
many millions to this same company
to build numerous ships Identical with
the one In question.
Admiral Capps. on September 14. ae
cording to Ferris, went Into his agree'
ment with the Submarine Boat Com
pany and authorised hlra to accept that
fee, but inatructed him be waa not to
receive fees for any plana aubsequently
drawn; that from that data forward
he must give all his time to the Gov
ernment and cease private designing,
In November or December last. Ferris
said various contractora were trying to
obtain duplicates of tha plana ba had
drawn for the submarine boat company.
The firm of Jahneka Company, he ad
mits, "placed an order with his (Ferris')
New York office for these plans and
specifications" and for these duplicates

under which they were to build 12 addi
tional steamers, and on the 12 ships.
Bockua offered Ferris a fee of 1 per
cent. These propositions Ferris accepted.
Reelgaalloa la Requested.
All the foregoing facta ara gleaned
from tha letter of explanation which
Ferrla aubmitted to Admiral . Bowles.
The Admiral, in reply, said to Ferris:
"Your letter of January 21 has received
tha careful consideration of tha legal
division and been aubmitted to Vice
President Plea of tha Emergency Fleet
Corporation, and I am asked to Inform
you that your resignation la requested,
to take effect Immediately."
Admiral Bowlea also submitted to tha
committee a memorandum in which he
states h telephoned tha Cllnchfleld
people and found that the 111,200 had
been paid to Ferris and learned also
that tha Clinchfields regarded their
contract with Ferrla aa effective and
that they expect to pay him the re
malnder of th fea due on tha designs
of th 12 snips.
Admiral Bowie adda: "The facts

As a result of the appointment by
Governor Pinkham of H. Gooding Field
as head of the selective draft office tn
Hawaii to succeed the - lata Captain
J. F. Green, considerable criticism nas
arisen "because of' the fact that the

himself the same evening to go to a

The public appears to be of the opinion
that such a man should not De in or-
