Both men were .arrested last night at

Americans are encountered almost

have scarcely resumed their "land legs."
But all plunging into their work without

Looking :oyer a hedge In one field I

Over' another hedge were long lines of

HUGE LOADING DOCKS,
NEW HOG ISLAND PLAN
Time to Be Saved in Sending
Out Ships After
Launching
tn addition to being the largest ship
yard In the world. Hog Island will be
a huge freight terminal.
By the time of the first aunchlng In
AugUFt there will he seVen great outfit
ting docks, each 10nn feet long"nd 10e
feet wide, from each of which cargoes
will be loaded Into th? new ships. Two
railroad tracks will connect them with
the three railroads entering this port
the Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia and
Heading And the Baltimore and Ohio.
The docks will face the Delaware
with thirty feet of water, t-o that the
new "SllO-ton freighters, with their
twenty-two feet loaded' draught, can
easily load-alongside.
This method of loading will- save the
confusion of delay and lighterage serv
ice necessary at so many points.
(lulrk Conl Loading
T:me will also he saved In leading
coai and other supplies, which will also
be done before the vessels leave the out
fitting docks.
Kach ship launched at the' great as
PfmhVy -.Ijlpnt wJIJLbe -moprrd to one of
ln(b!g oUtflfting'dock's at' the Island and
loaded with its oversoas cargo. By load
ing the new ships at Hog Island the
quartermaster department of the army,
which has had a special committee here
lnest!gat!ng the feasibility pf the pro
posal, believes it can save fiomtwo to
three weeks In, the boats' dispatch to
Kurope. Two ne wsteel piers will he
constructed by August 1 for this f-pecial
Utilization.
Besides filling the holds of the newly
launched freighters, a plan Is being con
sidered whereby the Hog Island outfl:
tlng ilockn'wlll be used aa loading ter
minals for .war freight.
' .May Limit Use
Fear Is expressed, hoveer. that a
general employment of the docks as an
ocean terminal for freight would hamper
shipbuilding at thp plants, so it Is pri.h
nble that the number of other boats
docking for cargoes will be limited. A
itreat amount of ocean freight 'Is sure,
though, to be poured, through Hog Island
for the new ships nnd whatever others
can be cared for conveniently.
Although It Is proposed only to make
the big shipyard an Important leading
point for the duration of the war, ship-'
ping circles are enthusiastic over the
possibility of Hog Island, being utilized
after the war, hecomlng second to no
freight terminal In the world.

AMERICAN SURGEONS
WIN PRAISE OF BRITISH
Delegation Here for Conven
tion Praises U. S.v Hos
pital Staffs
An Atlantic Port, June 1.
A delegation, representing the British
Medical Society has arrived here to at
tend the American Congress of Medi
cal Societies, which will be held ln Chi
cago on June 10, The delegation In
cludes Sir James Mackenzie. .Sir Ar
bulhnot Lane nnd Colonel Herbert A.
Bruce, consulting surgeon of the British
army In France.
The British surgeons will tell the
congress of their experiences ln the war
.and of the problems to be met ln dealing
with the wounded and the health of
armies.
All three spoke ln highest praise
of the work of American surgeons and
nurse's at the front.
Colonel Bruce reported that General
Sir Arthur Sloggett, director general of
the British medical service, had dele
gated him "to tell the American people
how much he appreciated the wonderful
help which the- American doctor" and
nurses had given to the British 111 and
wounded." "He was anxious." said
Colonel Bruce, "to give recognition to
the gallantry and heroism of the Amer;
lean medical officers and nurses serving
at the front, and had recommended them
for honors, but a regulation of, your
Government prevented their being ac
ccpted. Xothlng that we can do Is too
good for the American doctors and
nurses serving with us.
"Your medical men have willingly
taken their places alongside our offi
cers In positions of danger and have
suffered casualties ln exactly the same
proportion as our own doctors.
"During the recent retirement, al
though tremendous difficulties were Im
posed upon the medical service, the
wounded all were safely removed to hos
pitals In the rear and none was allowed
In fall Into the hands of the enemy.
"I saw many American soldiers
brigaded with the British at the front,
calling forth the highest praise for
America's splendid decision to make Im
mediate use of troops. Insufficiently
trained to fight as a separate army, by
mixing them with seasoned divisions."
"I am also able to speak,'' he con
tinued, "of the splendid work being done,
by the hospitals your Government so
generously and promptly sent to our aid
nt the request of Mr. Balfour last year.
Thev Include such famous surgeons as
Major George frlle and Major Lower,
the Philadelphia unit with Majors Hart
and John .Gibbons and the Harvard Unit
with Major Harvey Cushlng.''
PRAISE SHIPBUILDING HERE
Congressmen Are- Sure Output
Will Meet Expectations
That the output of shipyards In this
district will meet expectations Is the
belief of the congressional Committee
on Merchant Marine and Fisheries,
which recently Inspected those yards.
in a resolution of thanks received by
Mayor Smith for their entertainment
in the city the Congressmen say:
"The committee has noted with the
greatest satisfaction the splfndld spirit
of enthusiasm and co-ooerat'on dis
played by the management and work
men ln the .work of building a mer
chant marine In' the hour of the nation's
need,
"From what the committee has noted
it Is encouraged to .believe that there
will be an output of ships from thee
yards which will meet the reasonable
expectations of the public."

. To bring about Improvement In the
aerial mall route, between Washington.
Philadelphia nnd 'Kew York, and to ob
tain the advantage 6f the exper'enco
with airplanes under war conditions
along the western front In, Prance.
MttJox It. II. Fleet, of the stcnal cortis.
has been, removed a.s head of the service ,
ana qaptaln C A. Weldenbath. who has
seen three months' service, -ln France,
has been named to succeed him.
Captain Weldenbath, who has ben a
companion of Lieutenant "nddle'' nick
enbachcr, the former noted automobile
driver on the French front, Is to h;e
charge of the Washlngton-to-New York
aerial mall service until It has been
developed to a point where It has been
declared practical and can bn turned
over to ft successor.
The new head of the airplane mull'
service went overseas last year with,
the first division of Americans. He was
then a private, but shortly after arrival
"over there" was transferred to the
aviation sect'on, taking up flying ' Two
well-known American flyers. Lieutenant
Dudley, T. Campbell and Lieutenant
rtlckenbacher, who were also privates
when tile first division went to Kurope,
took up aviation, and they, with Weld
enbath, formed a trio and were fast
friends.
Captain Weldenbath gained expert
practical knowledge of airplanes with
the forces over seas, and It Is expected
that he will quickly develop the airplane
mall service to a high point of effi
ciency. Plans are under consideration by the
Post Office Department to change the
northern terminal of the Washlngton-Phllndelphla-.N'cw
York air mall route
from Belmont Park, Long Island, to
Branchhrook, near Newark, N, J. This
would facilitate the dispatch of mall to
tho New York postofflcc.
