TWO BELIEVED IN MIND
James Farrcl,! President of 'r-nUed
; Stales Steel Corporation, and
i AYilllaiu Teagle Mentioned.
BY MARK SULLIVAN.
;w"ASHINGTOiV, D. C, May 14. (Spe
eat.) Everybody in Washington
understands that President Harding's
long delay in naming a new shipping
board chairman has been due to his
.-ish to get the biggest possible man
for the job:. Practically everybody
believes that the two big men whom
President Harding has considered are
Junes Farrell. president of the United
States Steel corporation, and William
Teagle, head of the Standard Oil com
lny.
itiossip 'n the most authentic sources
lifts said that President Harding, ever
since he first nve thought to the
subject when be was in Florida
February, has been eager to get one
tr the other of these men. ro pom
the men the acceptance of the Job
would, of course, mean great sacrifice.
It is not merely that they would sa&
rifice their earning capacity in their
present positions; they would suffer
farther sacrifice in the fact that.
tinder the law, it would be necessary
fer them to sell every security they
might have of a sort that would con
flict with the interests of the ship
Ultie: board.
.How these men may have felt about
each approaches, as may have been
made to them nobody knows. The
more thoughtful students of the prob
lem in Washington believe th.it Teagle
would be the better man. They say
tfcat. while Farrell is extremely able,
he has the lesser elasticity of greater
if:ir. Also, thev Doint out that far
rell is a captain of industry who' has
initio no from the ranKs. wno nas
h,.n workman in the yards himself,
and who, as is often the case with
this type of man, is more rigid and
uncompromising toward labor than
men of a different experience.
Either Would Be Aoyulnition.
Teagle is a younger man, his train
ing has been more academic and he
has shown greater sympathy with the
modern point of view about the rela
tions of capital and labor. Teagle is
credited with Inventing and putting
ir to effect those devices for co-opera-l.'on
with labor that makes the Stand
ard Oil company one of the most mod
ern American industries in this re
spect. The difference in desirability
tetween the two men is not great,
however, and it is recognized tnat u
President Harding should
in getting either of them
go far toward solving
uuestionably the
succeed
he would
what is un-
most embarrassing
business problem the government has.
Kl'he public generally does not recog
nize what a very serious mess the
shipping board is. Senator Edge the
other day said the government was
liwirig a million dollars a day in the
mere upkeep of idle ships. Officials
familiar with the situation do not
admit this. They say" that the idle
fhips are tied up in units of eight
nhips in & group, with the entire
group cared for by a skeleton crew
maintained- on one ship. They say
tlrnt J100.000.000 a year would cover
tie government's lots in taking care
ft idle ships. But whether this esti
mate of J1O0.000.000 a year is correct,
r whether Senator Edge's estimate of
Hr.0,000.000 a year is right, the ships
ara a monstrous source of loss and
nutp. The shiDB that the govern
mit owns today are worth close to
albillion dollars less than they cost
tr build.
Enormous iMum Inevitable,
"-Government must take the loss,
. f M,er we do. as a matter of policy
SB' to the future, and whoever is
rhdsen as head of the shipping board.
ih.r is Drobablv no way out except
Id charee off that billion dollars as
one of the expenses of the war, Just
like the cost of shells and rifles. It
U irue that there was a time when
we might have salvaged most of this
money. For fully a year after the
anrled the Drlce of ships wa
i,-t,.t, nnrf thev were In demand a)
over the world. Mr. Farrell himself
the other day said that at any time
riurinsr 1319 the United States could

.'..rrfon nt a irice that would have
..vri the government $800,000,000.
There is no possible description of
the government's shipping experiment
except as that of a discouraging wti
tar of mistakes.
The results of old mistakes are
tack today. Soon after the
armistice the shipping board.
half-hearted way. sold a good many
dnm nn lone-term Installments. In
it eagerness to make sales, the govr
ernment occasionally sold, the ships
to companies not financially stable.
With the present depression in bus.-
ress many of tnese companies nun
, rnllinir. nd the government is in
the most uncomfortable and expensive
oosition of a mortgager taking over
property of doubtful value.
- Lieioldatlon Must Come,
'Whoever is appointed chairman of
the shipping board, tne poncy un
,,hrprllv will be to liquidate th's
tvneriment very largely. We shall
pive up the early ambition we had
to maintain subsidized shipping routes
art over the world. We shall prob
ably pick out a few main routes anJ
be content with maintaining ships on
these. As to the enormous amount of
idle shipping the government owns,
we shall pursue a policy of getting rid
of them. If we cannot sell them, we
shall probably give them away. The
tUne may come when any seaport city
that wants to own a ship can arrange
to get one from the United 6tates
government without any particular
outlay of money.

GREAT POWKRS MUST AGREE

Jolin Hays Hammond Declares It
Would Be Folly Tor Amer
ica to Act Alone.
PHILADELPHIA, May 14 In a
paper read before today's session of
the American Society of Political and
Social Science, John Hays Hammond
declared disarmament on the part of
the United States, in the present state
of international relations, unless
other great powers disarm at the
same time, "would be the height of
folly, if not a criminal blunder."
"Disarmament can be effected by a
straightforward unequivocal message
from our government to England and
Japan," he said, "to the effect that
the United Slates has no ambition to
attain the supremacy of the seas but
that she is nevertheless determined
not to accept a subordinate naval
position; in this our policy is inflexible.
"When these nations fully realize
the futility of competing with us to
gain naval superiority, they will
gladly and quickly agree to the lim
itations of naval armaments and not
before."

Is Really Seriously Injured.
Mrs.'W. C. Moore, housewife, of 526
Kearny street, narrowly escaped
bleeding to death yesterday-afternoon
after she had fallen upon a glass
fruit jar while working alone in her
kitchen. The glass fevered an artery
in the right forearm.
A resident of the vicinity of Six
teenth and Raleigh streets noticed
Mrs. Moore staggering in the street
and sent in a call for the police
patrol, thinking she was intoxicated.
When the police arrived they found
her to be bleeding from a jagged cut
in the arm and administered crude
first aid as the machine dashed to thg
city emergency hospital, where a sur
geon tied the artery. He said that
she was weak from toss of blood, but
that tier life was in no danger as a
consequence of the . harrowing experience.

BY WILLIAM BIRD.
(Copyright, 1921, by The Oreonlan.)
PARIS. May 14. (Special.) Lon
don Punch remarks this week thai
one of the most abhorrent things
about war Is that it leads t" peace.
Certainly the remark is not without
point at the present moment.
The Versailles treaty has come into
full effect. The allies have presented
a bill which Germany recognizes s
correct and promises to pay. One
would think that ought to settle the
matter and that the world might now
settle down to enjoy the blessings of
warlessness.
Such, however, is ' not the cas.
What has happened is that the sea
son for "crises" is now open.
France declares officially that as
Germany accepted the allies' terms
only after threats of force, it is nec
essary to hold a "perpetual menace"
over Germany. Therefore, the mobi
lized soldiers will not be demobilized,
and they are just as far from dis
armament as ever. Germany' is ex
pected to meet the "first crisis" pay
ment of 12.000,000.000 marks satis
factorily. The trouble will come when
the question of German disarmament
arises, June 30. -Other
Crlwi to Follow
-Although the Catholic center party,
predominantly Bavarian, holds
prominent place in the new govern
ment its members are opposed to dis
arming the Bavarian regular army
Will the new government dare try
to force Bavaria to disarm? It seems
unlikely. Thus June 30 marks the
next big crisis and responsible French
officials say the Ruhr occupation plan
will become automatically operative
on that date if disarmament is not
accomplished. But supposing disarm
ament is accomplished, what then?
There follows a long list of other
dates, each one bringing a new crisis
of its own. Germany's failure to give
entire satisfaction on any one of
these dates would entail instant mili
tary measures, which in Euclid's
phrase is absurd.
Sane observers agree that the
world must find some more practical
method of winding up the war than
by keeping of all humanity on tenter
hooks for 42 years.
As indicated last week, the present
arrangement is only temporary and
is designed to save the Briand cab
inet without actually invading Ger
many. No other solution is possible
at the moment. However, this is not
the last word that will be said.
Financiers JlTow Concerned.
Leaving out the troublesome dis
armament question (which ought not
to be left out, but no suggestion for
solution of It is available at the
moment), the work of politicians
seems about finished. What remains
concerns financiers.
How much can Germany's promiss
to pay be sold for over the counter?
Who will buy that promise? The
semi-official Le Temps already
suggesting that Great Britain should
accept part of France's claim the
part that falls due in the indefinite
future in (settlement of France's
war debts to England.
It is held by many Britishers, how
ever, that as Germany now has signed
schedule of future Indemnity pay
ments, so the continental allies in
debted to Great Britain Bhould draw
up a scneauie or payments they ex
pect to make upon their debts. iAn
effort to do so would, of course, en
tail making provisions also for the
payment of the r.llied debts to
America. - "

REHEARING HELP LIKELY
KKVIEW OF PHO.XE RATE CASE
NOW IS EXPECTED.
Definite Statement to Be Issued
by Public Service Commission
Within Few Days.
SALEM, Or., May 14. Special.)
Decision as to whether the Oregon
public service commission will grant
a rehearing? of the so-called Pacific
Telephone & TalegraP rate case, will
be made in an order to be issued
within the next three or four days,
according to Fred Buchtel, a mem
ber of the commission.
Commissioner Buchtel said today
that the order had been in process of
preparation for more than two weeks,
but that because of many important
hearings and conferences in various
sections of the state the. work had
not been completed. Mr. Buchtel also
said tjie petition filed by the city of
the rate case contained la separate
allegations, all of which had to be
considered by the commission in pre
paring its order. ,
Persons close in loucn wnn mem
bers of the public service commission
said today that there was no doubt
that the rehearing would oe graniea.
This assertion was based on state
ments previously given out by Com
missioners Corey and Williams, in
which they said the matters set out
the petition warranted a review
of the case.
Engineers working under the direc
tion of the Portland city attorney
have been in Salem for nearly a week
investigating the records introduced
as exhibits at the previous hearing
of the case. Many of these records.
together with numerous new exhibits,
will figure in the rehearing in case
it is granted.
in the event ot a renearmg or me
rate case, which seems almost assured
the city of Portland probably will
have 60 days in which.to prepare its
case. The rehearing, therefore, would
be set for some time in July.

gon and that the drawing proposed
by Mr. Smith would come under that
act. The opinion was asked by T. H
