Dur ing the year ended August 31, 566 keels were laid, 358 ships launched and 287 shipd of 1,800,000 deadweight tons com pleted. The report declares that a ma terially -better accomplishment is con fidently expected during the coming year, and that gratifying progress along technical lines was made, par ticularly in the simplification and im provement of ships and standardization of the many fittings required. Since "August 1 wood ship production has averaged at least one complete ready-for-service wood steamship every day.-and the shipping board's re port declares this average will be in creased. "With regard to the wood ship program the report says the board has recognized that more careful attention should be given to ships of large size, and after investigation has decided to recommend that efforts be concentrated upon the construction of a 5,000-ton flush-deck wood ship, which would be as strong- asthe 3,500-ton types now being ' built, and which could be pro duced at a saving of approximately 520 per ton. " At the present time ten types of wood ships of 3,500, 4,000 and 5,000 deadweight tons are being turned out. Hegarding its program for concrete construction, the shipping board states that contracts have been let for the construction of five government-owned concrete shipyards and that work at each of the five has commenced. The present contracts of the board call for the "construction of 38 concrete tankers and. cargo ships of 7,500 tons, three cargo ships of 3,500 tons and one- cargo ship of 3,000 tons. In addition, plans have been prepared for a 2,500 ton deadweight concrete schooner coal barge and bids asked, it being intended to build 25 of these. - This program has been reduced since the signing of the armistice, as the cessation of hostilities and the near approach of peace made it necessary to readjust the nation's shipbuilding pro gram on a more economical basis. Ac cordingly, several contracts ' for con crete tankers were recalled and are being held in abeyance until the board determines its course following- peace, according to the report. Two of the three 3,500 ton cargo ships mentioned in the report are now under construc tion at the yard of the Liberty Ship building company of this city. Contracts and commitments of the Emergency Fleet corporation for the construction of ships made during the year provided for 1,296 steel cargo ships o 8,877,605 deadweight tons, 80 steel "tankers of 737,000 - deadweight' tons, 94 steel troopships' of 787,000 deadweight tons, two steel hospital ships of 20,000 deadweight tons; four steel refrigerator ships of 37,500 dead weight tons; 104 seagoing steel tugs and eight steel harbor tugs and 16 steel barges of 54,800 deadweight tons. The wood and composite ship contracts called for 181 complete wood ships of 707,500 deadweight tons; 519 hulls of 1,841,000 deadweight tons; 140 barges of 359,500 deadweight tons; 162 wood tugs and 32 composite ships of 116,000 deadweight tons. FINANCIAL SUMMARY Securities Market Confused and -Unsettled Traders Pall to Heed Hopeful Features. New York, Dec. 22. Confusion and further unsettlement were the chief concomitants of the week in the se curities market, traders and the public alike paying little heed to such augu ries as a wheat crop of extraordinary promise and the more hopeful views of leaders of finance and industry. The one concrete feature was the flotation and ready sale of a round amount of Pennsylvania railroad bonds at terms regarded as - advantageous, but to the vendors and the purchasers. The transaction derived its special significance, however, from the fact that it marked the first important pro ject df its kind since the signing of the armistic It is understood many railroad and industrial corporations' are likely to enter the money market shortly, their propspective demands being largely dependent upon the course of read justment and the attitude of the Wash ington authorities. Director-General McAdoo's .further suggestions anent federal extension of control continued to operate a distur bing influence and were mainly re sponsible for the constant, if moderate, offerings of railroad stock and bonds other standard securities reflecting this pressure. Substantial reactions from high quotations among the steel, coppers and kindjed shares doubtless were prompted by a growing conviction that those products are almost ap proaching levels attractive to con sumers. Fully 75 per cent of the week's liqui dation of bonds centered in liberty is sues the fourth 4. 1-4's showing most impairment, while the 'first 4s dropped to the year's lowest price.

' POLAND WAS LOOTED DURING HUN OCCUPATION . .- . : Stripped of All Machinery , and Mater, lal and Will Require $2,000,000 To ' Repair Damage. . Warsaw. Wednesday, Dec. 21. (By the Associated Press. )'; Poland was stripped of all materials and machinery during the German occupation which ended November 11. On that day a few, ' thousand soldiers of "the PoliBh legion, aided by the population of Warsaw disarmed more than 20,000 German soldiers who had planned a revolt agafhst their own officers. All food and all telephone wires we're re moved by the Germans. All industrial plants were robbed and dismantled. Discussing the economic situation, Stanislau Larlowski, December of the commercial bank of Warsaw, said to the correspondent today: "It will take nearly $2,OQO,000 to re pair the damage done during the Ger man occupation and to .put us on our feet properly and to develop our great natural resources. "First we must establish a sound government which will have the con fidence of the outside world. When such a government is established we will put out foreign loans for the pur pose of buying materials and - start ing up factories. "The Germans transported home all the machinery from the industrial city of Kalicz and then set fire to the city. This, was one of their great crimes in 1914. They did this although there was no battle fought there. They drove out the people by bombing the city and then robbed it methodically. "The Germans also requisitioned all the factories and machinery in' Lodz, which Is the Polish Manchester, with its. vast cotton and woolen mills. Dur ing their entire occupation they con tinued to loot Lodz. Even last Septem ber they carried away all the Iron plants and floorings from the factories. "While they did not rob our banks, on the third day of the occupation of Warsaw in 1915, the director of the Deutsche Bank of Berlin came to me and demanded my cash balance ot Tubies, the surrender of which he claimed would regulate our debts to his bank. The Germans did the same thing In Rumania after the treaty of Bucharest. "It will take $200,000,000 to recon struct us industrially without counting the other sums we must spend gradual ly for improving the railways and cities and , rebuilding houses ruined during the' war." SCHOONER TOWED IN IN SINKING CONDITION Danish Sailing Ship Asgerd Picked Up By American Steamer Two Hun dred Miles At Sea. Norfolk, Va., Dec. 22. The Ameri can steamer Choctaw, a navy auxiliary ship, last night brought the three masted Danish sailing ship Asgerd in to Hampton Roads, in a damaged and sinking condition. The Asgerd was sighted Friday morning about 200 miles southeast of the Virginia capes in a helpless condi tion, with her starboard awash, su perstructure damaged, sails Teduced to ribbons, and withfidistress signals fly ing. The oetaWj'which was en route from' France to Norfolk after great difficulty, owing to the rough seas which was threatening to engulf the Asgerd, got a tow line to the ves sel. Without a cable it was necessary to , rig up the anchor chains of " the two ships in order to nold the heavy sailing vessel, and the slow, trip to Hampton Roads was begun. Twice the makeshift chain cable parted, as the wind was high through out Friday, with heavy seas running, but the Choctaw stuck to the task and the 30-odd members of the crew of the Asgerd remained by their ship, working the pumps day and night to keep her afloat. For nearly 48 hours the men were forced to labor in waist deep water half-famished and on the verge of collapse, before . making the roads. The Asgerd is loaded with linseed,' and was enroute from Buenoss Aires to New York. The gale was encount ered In southern waters Thursday, the ship driven to sea and literally batter ed into a helpless condition. The Choctaw was employed during the winter in supplying the fleet in Euro pean waters with mines and other munitions. DEATH OF MRS. RANSOM Widow of Late Senator Ransom Pas ses at Hlekory Funeral at Verona. Hickory. Dec. 22. Mrs. Matt W. Ran som, widow of the late Senator Ran som, died at her apartments in Hotel Huffry last night at 11:20 following an attack of bronchial pneumonia at the age of 88 years. A short private funeral service was held at the hotel at 5 o'clock this afternoon and the remains are being carried to Verona, Northampton county, her childhood home, for interment. Mrs. Ransom had been a resident of Hickory since 1904, when General Ransom died, and divided her time between Hickory and Blowing Rock, where she maintained a summerhome. She had been coming to Hickory for 40 years and had en deared herself to the people. Mrs. Ransom was highly educated and cultured and -perhaps Was the most scholarly woman in the state. Her intimate association with public men, her residence in Mexico City for two years as the wife of the man who was minister to that country, and her earlier life in North Carolina and 24 years at the national capital gave her a grasp of public men and quesr tions. Until her .last illness she re tained and active and vigorous mind and conversed easily .on almost Nany subject. Mrs. Ransom was born at Verona In 1830, a daughter of Jaseph Exum. She was married to Matt W. Ransom in 1854. Her husband died in 1904. Sur viving are six children Matt W. Ran som, Jr., of Littleton; Joe E. Ransom, of Northampton; Robert Ransom, of Hickory; Miss Essie Ransom, of Hick ory; Patrick E. Ransom arid George E. Ransom, of Weldon. V All the children with the exception of Matt W, were with her when the end came. SERVICES AT KERR. " Rev. E. B. Carr, Former Pastor.

Cardui Gave Relief. Marksville, La. Mrs. Alice Johnson, of this place, writes: "For one year I suffered with an awful misery in my back and sides. My left side was hurting me all the time. The misery was something awful. ; I could not do anything, not even sleep at night. It kept me awake most of the night ... I took different medicines, but nothing did me any good or relieved me until I took Cardui ... I was not able to do any of my work for one year and I got worse all the time, was confined to my bed off and on. I got so bad with my back that when I stooped down I was not able to straighten up again ... I decided I would try Cardui ... By time I had taken the entire bottle I was feeling pretty good and could straighten up and my pains were nearly all gone. I shall always praise Cardui. I con tinued taking it until I was strong and well." If you suffer from pains due to female complaints, Cardui may be just what you need. Thousands of women who once suffered in this way now praise Cardui for their present good health. Give it a trial.
