ILL OF HARNEY : DOWN THE WAYS ; THIS AFTERNOON -Supple & Ballin Shipyard Com pletes Third Hull of Wooden Ship to Be Launched. SHIP TO HAYE STEAM POWER rSecond Vessel Built in Willam ' ette-Columb' District Under ; Actual Government Contract. The Supple A Ballin Shipbuilding corporation cornea to the fore today ' with an offering to Uncle Sam'a Liberty fleet of wooden carriers. The hull of the teamer Harney la to be launched this afternoon. The Harney is . the second vessel built under actual government con tract, to be launched in the Columbia and Willamette river district, the first belli the steamer Wasco, launched Bunds by the Grant-Smith-Porter Ship company at 8t. Johns. Mrs. Herbert Ballin, wife of Her bert Ballin, son of Fred A. Ballin member of the firm. Is the sponsor for the Harney. Mrs. Ballln's husband Is in the drafting- department of the shipyard and drew many of the plans for the vessel. Though the launching Is a private Affair as far as spectators In the yard are concerned, hundreds may witness the event from the Morrison and Burn aide bridges, between which the plant Is lock ted, and gathering on wharves at various points of vantage alone .the waterfront and in the vicinity of the plant. Haraey to Have Steam Power , The Harney is the third craft launch- led by Supple & Ballin. The others were the Mount Hood and Mount Shasta, for private account. They are lying at the plant being outfitted. The Harney is to be bropelled by steam . while the Mount Hood and Mount Shasta are full motorshlps. AH are after the design of Fred A. Ballin, being of composite wood and steel construction, but the type of the Harney is little different from that of the Mount Hood and Mount Shasta, besides the matter of propulsion, for the Harney's housing is erected amid ships. The Harney is 305 feet In length and will have a deadweight carrying T capacity of 4000 tons. The sister ship of the Harney, which is on ways No. 4, will be ready for launching In a few days. She is ' to .be christened Wallowa. The Mount Hood will be ready to go on her' trial trip In about a week. RESPONSIBILITY FOR WRECK ' Federal Judge Suggests Principles of Safety First for Coast Vessels. San Francisco. Feb. 21. (I. N. S.) That time will In future be sacrificed for greater safety on the part of vessels engaged In coastwise passenger traffic " was forecast by shlnulner men here todav following a decision of Federal Judge ; Maurice T. Doollng, holding that the Pacific Coast Steamship company must ' stand liability for the wreck of the steamer Santa Rosa at Point Arguello, r July 6. 111. It has for years been the claim of federal officials that ships hug the shore line in order to save time when ' they might with greater safety go a few miles out to sea. In his decision Judge Doollng says: "The safety of thousands of persons who travel up and down this coast re : quires that the court should not listen with over-eager ears to the excuses of fered for the loss of vessels that should never have occurred or to the general disclaimer of responsibility of wrecks that could so easily have been avoided." Further Judge Doollng declares that vessels run close to the shore "either for the purpose of shortening the time or for some other purpose not disclosed or apparent." EASTERN BIDDERS GET CONTRACTS Emergency Fleet Corporation Awards j Orders for 4000 Boats and Rafts. The contracts for 4000 lifeboats and rafts, plans and specifications of which were received in Portland some time ago for bids from local manufacturers, have all been let in the eaet,the Cham ber of Commercei has been advised. The equipment Is for the emergency fleet Proof that Some Women do Avoid Operations Mrs. Etta Dorion, of Ogdensburg, Wis., says I suffered from female troubles which caused piercing pains like a knife through my back and side. I finally lost aU my strength so I had to go to bed. The doctor advised an operation but I would not listen to it I thought of what I had read about Lydia E.

ALL HAVE LIBERTY MOTORS Engines Used Are Latest Result ' of Combined Ingenuity; Speed Records Are Surpassed. Washington, Feb. 21. (I. N. S.) The first American built battleplanes are on their way to the front in France. Equipped with 12-cyllnder Lib erty motors -and representing the lat est product of combined allied ingenu ity, they have surpassed In test all records for speed and climbing for planes of their type. They are being delivered practically four months ahead of schedule. Other battleplanes will follow Immediately and In quantity. The peak of enor mous production, brought about through typical American standardiza tion, will be reached within the next month, when thousands of them will be on their way to cloud the western skies against the German hordes. Announcement of this achievement was made Wednesday by Secretary of War Baker. He told in a frank, simple statement the trials and difficulties that the undeveloped aviation service of this country had to overcome to reach the point of perfection attained by the warring nations under the urge of their greatest emergency. Program Hit Bumps at First Three times were the plans drawn by the aviation experts on the war front changed or discarded for the more modern battleship of the skies. And again the 3000 miles that separates the American aviation commission from its base in Washington caused delays of from 17 days to 11 weeks in the ship ment of Important samples. Secretary Baker makes it quite ap parent that the size of the air fleet that Americans can put forth Is limited only by the number of men who can be trained for the service. "After three years of warfare," said the secretary in outlining the task sur mounted, "the total number of planes able to take the air at any time on either side of the western front had not been over 2500. Planes Xot Dae Until July "This combined with the fact that 46 men are required on the ground for the plane In the air gives a truer perspec tive of the European aviation situation than is commonly possessed. "For every plane in the air there must be two replacement planes on the ground and one training plane for every pilot who eventually reaches the front with a Bpare engine for each plane. "Moreover, while the American pro gram has been delayed by difficulties which were impossible to forsee when the tentative program was adopted in all our lack of knowledge last spring, it may be said that American planes are not due in France under the original schedule until July. Mon iter Fleet Is Aim "At the outbreak of war the first step both in sequence and Importance was to build up an industry to rush out the training planes needed for the prospec tive aviators who were immediately in hand. Thia fresh and most promising personnel aiioraea indeed Americas largest immediate source of her aid to her associate nations in the air, which. while well able to turn out the latest type of air planes were seriously drained of men capable of manning them. "The ultimate goal, however, was the construction , of a large fleet of battle planes. 'Two serious problems Interwoven and reacting were immediately met, the almost total lack botn of airplane Indus try and of airplane engineering knowl edge. The estimates of the total value of the industry vary from $2,000,000 to $10,000,000 and of employes from 6000 to 19,000. The government was practically tne oniy purcnaser, having ordered 366 planes the year before the war, of which only 66 were delivered. Many Men Are deeded "The great problem now remaining Is to secure tne tnousands or skilled me chanics, englnemen, motor repair men. wood and metal workers needed to keep the plane now in perfect condition. This great engineering and mechanical force at the airdromes, flying fields and re- pair depots both here and beyond the lines in France is an industrial link in the chain of air supremacy. "Without them the planes turned out would be useless and the filers helpless. .-now inat American Dattiepianes are going over seas, a great Increase In the volunteering of skilled mechanics is both essential and expected." RAIL BILL UP TODAY FOR VOTE IN SENATE ( Continued from Page One) the measure and begin considering it under a five-minute rule. Prospects for Its passage this week are bright. The conference between the two houses should take but a few days and Indica tions today were that President Wilson will get the measure for signature late next week. War in Pacific Feared Predicting that America will soon be forced to fight for Alaska and Hawaii, Senator Lewis, Illinois, today demanded government ownership of the railroads as a preparedness measure. "If private ownership of the roads continues," he said, ' we will have no adequate means of rushing troops to points needing defense." Lewis declared that German intrigue will incite Russia to seize Alaska, so as to force the United States to divide its fighting power and minimize her assist ance to the allies on the western front. Lewis' address was the call for a general advance of government owner ship advocates in the closing hours oi debate on the railroad control bill. They are centering their efforts on section IS of the pending bill, covering the definite limit to federal control. They have lined up behind Senator Cummins' pro posed amendment providing that at the end of the war the president shall ap point a. board of five railroad directors to manage the roads. Big Political Issae next Tear Lewis declared that government own ership "will be the great national home issue of the next presidential campaign in connection with tha international Issue growing out of the war on peace terms.:-5' "J":" i "Thia bill," amid Lewis, "Is the begin ning of the government's taking the roads as a - government agency.. They will never be permitted to return to the former state of personal control for pri vate profit. At the same time this country takes over the roads It will take the telephone and telegraph privileges, and then the products for fuel, particu larly coal and oil lands. The people will take possession of the people's property." SENATE SUB-COMMITTEE INDORSES OVERMAN BILL WITHOUT AMENDMENTS Washington. Feb. 21. (L N. S.) The Overman bill was indorsed by the sen ate judiciary sub-committee this after noon by a vote of three to two. Con trary to expectation the bill was not amended in any important particular by the sub-committee. A bitter fight on the floor of the senate over the measure is now regarded as inevitable. As predicted. Senator Overman of North Carolina, Democrat ; Senator Fletcher of Florida, Democrat, and Senator Nelson of Minnesota, a Repub lican, voted for the Overman bill, while Senator Reed of Missouri, Democrat, and Senator Dillingham of Vermont, Republican, voted against it. The committee's action was a com plete victory for the administration forces. It had been expected the com mittee would Indorse the measure, but the general belief was it would write important amendments into the bill. The Overman bill as it now stands. declares that "the president is hereby authorizd to make such distribution of functions among executive agencies as he may deem necessary in such manner as in his judgment shall seem best fitted to carry out the purposes of the act and to this end is author ized to make such regulations and to make such orders as he may deem necessary." The measure also authorizes the president "to coordinate or consoli date any executive commissions, bu reaus, agencies, officers or offices, now existing or hereafter created by law, to transfer any duties or powers from one existing department, commission, bureau, agency, office or officers, to another and to transfer the personnel thereof or any part of it either by de tail or assignment together with such part of the records and property be longing thereto as may be necessary to enable the performance of the duties." BIG FRAUD IN CLOTHING FOR THE ARMY IS BARED (Oontinned from Pace One) property of the government, and he is also charged with other offenses. Barnet Telts, a manufacturer of over alls for the government, is charged specifically with "stealing and aiding others in stealing cloth, the property of the United States government. Largest la Coantry Jacob Welnstein and his son, Irving. who are Jobbers in woolens, are in dicted under the same offense and with having concealed the fact from the government inspector who interrogated them when an investigation was made. Abraham Putsch and Leon Levin are changed with having embezzled cloth from the United States government. They were one of the best known manufacturers of military uniforms, and It is said they were the largest government clothiers in the United States. It is said they have manufac tured 1,000.000 uniforms since this coun try entered the war. Barney Robinson, a receiving clerk. and Morris Alewltz. a shipping clerk. both employed in the New York manu facturing company, also were among" the indicted men. They are charged with perjury, born out of the testimony they gave at a recent examination bo fore the federal grand Jury. Graft In Banking Charged Washington, Feb. 21. (U. P.)
