There were 700 soldiers aboard. Of those lft aboard many must have been lost." Others declare there were POO aboard. Unstinted praise is bting heaped on, Lieut. Commander Craven, commander of the British destroyer Mounsley who aided in the rescue of more than 200 men. Most of the soldiers on the transport were Georgia men, probably replacement units. Tiv:.- Red Cross workers met survivors as they landed, supplying them with necessities. Red Cross workers, some of whom were survHors abocrd the convoy, told of receiving wireless messages from the damaged vessel enl how the officers aboard made desperate attempts to rush to the doomed vessel. Men from the lost ship described spectacular scenes as the British rescuing ship came along side the transport. Aboard the Kritish destroyer they told of the wonderful attitude maintained by those aboard and how many who had jumped fell into the sea and were dragged otit of sight by the high waves. Others told of having seen men in the water cut in two when dahsed against the sides of the two vessels. Many other stories of mn being' crushed between the rescue ship and the ! doomed vessel were told. One man with a rope tied to the gun aboard the destroyer was dragged for forty-five minutes in the water behind the rescue ship before being pulled aboard.

An effort will tie made to have one of the leading moving p'.cture concerns of the country which make a specialty of news films to come to Hammond and make a picture of the woik on government houses at the Standard. 1 1 is noi very often that 119 housen. which are to take care of 174 families may be seen in the process of simultaneous construction. It is not very often that Uncle Sam can be seen s' Intently at work. It is estimated that there are 2:i0 carpenters and about 250 to 3 1'O other workers engaged in the work of construction. The foundations for scores of houses are already in and the miperstructure Is rapiay going, up. The remarkable organiation that is shown by flie Wells Brothers Construction Company indicates that the houses will be under roof and approaching completion in the 90-dav limit that they have .set for themselves. A railroad track has been run in'o the property for the purpose of facilitating the delivery of materials. Most of the lumber is being furnished by Hammond dealers, the allotment of the orders being made by Mr. William G. Taxton of the I'axton Lumber Co who went to Washington and convinced the government that the Hammond dealers could handle the dccl. T hi e sewers, side wajks and pavements have been put in by the government during the summer and the work was done so exped t io-r.sl y that but few Hammond people knew what was going on. The mushroom city which Is now rising east of Columbia avenue will within the next three months add 1000 people to the population of the city of Hammond. The fee for the buildins: permits alc-ne amounted to nearly $600.00. the largest fee ihat has ever been pud into the rity treasury bv the building Inspector. The further additions to Hammond's population that: hr.ve come Hs a result of the building of the Lyndora hotel, with its ai oomT.odat ions for "00 to 400 eue.sts and the additions that hace resulted frrm the building t of 400 houses by private enterprise will add e total of 3.500 to Hammond's population within a year. At prefent there are thousands of employes of the Standard who are earning big wages and yet are going backhand forth to Chicago over the N'ickle Plate trains without even hesitating in Hammond's busines district to spend their money with the Hammond business men. Other thousands are being conveyed out of town by motor busses and electric railvpJij resulting in a total loss to tb- i so fer their aggregate pe.5too '.-concerned. Every ,in ft that is built in Hammond adds, o the prosperity of the business me of the city to just that extent. That Is why the building of this city on the east side is o very important. "Keep the Standard Payroll in Hammond1' should be the slogan that the entire city ehould adopt. Such ostly delays as resulted from the building material embargo and the fiilure of the business men cf the ity to have it removed weeks ago ar costing Hammond business men thousands of dollars in business that is now going out of the city on trains and street cars in Increasing numbers. Take a walk out on the east side Sunday and see what is being done in spite of the unprogressive element of the city towards making Hammond keep its place as one of the great centers of population in the Calumet district.

so much of the earth, adopts an exclusive policy In her own territory. Should all the natural resources in Uritish possession be monopolized permanently by their own nationals, it would be Inevitable that tbe non-British nations would pursue a militaristic aggressive poln.i against her. "America is fighting to safeguard the independence and rights of the small ikitions. it claims. This must ni-au thai the small nations ai e to bt given th.right of developing thtir own destiny witho ut molestation or interference, It is not calculated to guarantee the independence and rights of Buiall natious fo.strong powers to monopolize the benefits accruing from their vast natural resource's. 'Again, the pol; :y of confining a larg: number oi' people within their own territory of limited dimensions, such ass Jjipan, docs not tend to assist the civilization of the world, nor is euch a policy calculated to bring about the peace of the world. "It is clear in those circumstances that Japan's advocacy of the open door principle will meet with no dissent from Britain or America, even though it may be recognized that the immediate enforcement of this principle is attenaca with many difficulties. -While claiming the open door if. territories bordering the racino, Japan ought to insist that America grant Independence to the Philippines. America's suspicions of Japan have been the obstacle to her granting this independence, and therefore Japan's expression of reedincss to guarantee the independence, acting in concert with Great Britain and America, may induce the latter to comply with Japan's proposal. -Japan also must insist that Hawaii be made, a neutral zone. The independence of the Philippines and the neutrality of Hawaii are not questions which are important for their own sake, but Japan must contrive for their realization as a means to give effect to America's principle of safe-guarding the independence and rights of small nations, and also as the first step in the direction of enforcing .the open doer principle in regard to immigration. "Japan's efforts to carry this great principle at the peace conference may pave the way" for establishment of a great inter-national ideal, even though her efforts are not crowr.ed with Immediate success. Moreover, her claims will be received with universal sympathy and support by the Asiatic peoples and thus the foundation will be laid for Japan's assumption of the leadership of Asia."
