Various sections of the American mission are settling down to the work which must be done before the early part of January,, when the first sessions of the peace conference are held. .Goes to England December 26. President Wilsons plan for visiting London, while not yet positive, contemplates that he will leave for England next Thursday, December 26. He will probably remain in England four days. Details of the trip to London are being worked out by the President in consultations with Colonel House, Captain Andre Tardieu, French high commissioner to the United States, and members of the American embassy staff In London. The president will start for London Immediately after he has Christmas dinner with the American troops in the field. The president will not return directly to Paris, but It is expected he will visit the devastated regions of northern France and Belgium. It is expected he will be back in Paris about January 4, on the eve of the first meeting of the interallied conference on January 6. Arrange Common Basis. The opening meting of the allied conference will be confined to representatives of the allies and the United States, who will arrange a common basis of action for the formal sessions of the peace congress which will open toward the middle or latter part of January. It is expected that the German delegates then will be present for the first time. It is pointed out as this is not a negotiated peace, but a victorious peace, based on virtual unconditional surrender in which the enemy has been compelled to give up all demanded, the main purpose of the preliminary conference beginning in early part of January, is to arrange a common front for the peace congress. For that reason the conferences going on between the president and Premier Orlando of Italy and later with Premier Lloyd George in London, have an important bearing on this preliminary adjustment.

York agreed to purchase 846 acres cf land at Hog Island, to be utilized for

the purpose of the contract upon a six

per cent rental basis, to build on this tract with funds furnished by the emergency fleet corporation a ship yard of fifty ways and to construct with funds supplied from the same source fifty or more steel cargo ships at an estimated cost of $1,100,000 each.

I The agreement was that upon comple

tion of the ships the fleet corporation might purchase the plant at a value to be fixed by appraisal, failing which the government would scrap the plant and

remove it The estimated cost of con

structing the yard was $21,000,000. On October 23, the fleet corporation placed an order for seventy additional steel ships estimated to cost $1,650,000 each, calling for longer ways and piers and also for more shop and storage

capacity. On November 27, the con

tractor revised the estimate of yard

construction cost, adding $2,750,000

on account of the additiona.1 seventy

ships and $3,2a0,000 on account of un

favorable subsoil conditions, costly labor and necessary extensions of the plant. On May 7, an order for sixty more ships to cost $1,425,000 each was placed. All of the 180 ships were to

be completed by August 4, 1919.

REPORT ON

Continued From Page One.l Engineer Archibald L. Parsons and Naval Constructor S. M. Henry, and a force of special agents, investigated from February until July and then prepared their report, which was sent to the attorney general under date of September 12. Mr. Gregory's letter of transmittal to the President is dated September 21. Since then there have been demands to congress for publication of the report. The understanding has been that publication was delayed pending an agreement between the department of justice and Chairman Hurley as to the causes of delay as shown by the inquiry. The, report describes at the outset the contract entered into by the Emergency Fleet Corporation on Septehber 13, 1917, under which the American international corporation of New

We are within $2 per capita of the re-

After an attack of influenza, doctors advise that nature be assisted in its building-up process by the use of a good tonic one that will not enly put strength and endurance into the body, but will also help to build up and strengthen the run-down cells of the brain.

One of the most highly recom- i

mended remedies to put energy into both body and brain is Blo-feren your physician knows the formula it Is printed below. There's Iron in Blo-feren the kind of iron that makes red blood corpuscles and creates vigor. There Is lecithin also; probably the best brain Invigorator known to science. Then there is good old reliable gentian, that brings back your lagging appetite. There are other ingredients that help to promote good health, as you can see by reading this formula, not forgetting kolo, that great agent that puts the power of endurance Into weak people. Taken altogether Eio-feren Is a splendid active tonic that will greatly help any weak, run-down person to regain normal strength, energy, ambition and endurance. Bio-feren is sold by all reliable druggists and Is Inexpensive. For weakness after influenza patients are advised to take two tablets after each meal and one at bed time seven a day, until health, strength and vigor aro fully restored. ' It will not fall to help yon and If for any reason you are dissatisfied with results your druggist Is authorized to return your money upon request without any red tape of any kind. Note to physician: There Is no secret about the formula of Bloferen, It la printed on every packape. Here it is: Lecithin: Calcium Glycero-phosphate; Iron Peptonate, Manganese Peptonate: Ext. Nux. Vomica; Powdered Gentian; Phe-n-olphthaleln ; Olearsin- Capsicum, Kolo.
