Tho Great Naval lose at Dover Cost.
My 020300.000. V
The new harbor recently completed
at Dover England. by the British Ad
mirslty which was formally opened by
the Prince oi Wales. is according to
the Technical World, one oi the great-
est engincering tests ever put in hand
and brought to s successiul comple-
tlon.
This new home tor the British ileet
can claim the distinction of being the
largest srtii'icisl harbor in the world.
it incloses at low tide a water ares oi
no less than 010 acres. silordlng ample
accommodation for a ileat oi twenty-
ilve first clues battleships with the at~
tendant smaller craft. such as torpedo
boats. gulrbOuts. etc.
This harbor has taken eleven yours
to construct and has cost the govern-
merit 820,000,000. By its erection the
ancient English port oi Dover has
been trausiormed into n poweriur urtv-
ul base. The reason lot this trnusior-
wallet: is out isr to seek. it is the pol
icy or the British Admiralty tor the
strength and built oi their ehlps to lie
nearest their strongest rival
'ihat rival today is Uer.ruuuy hence
the desirability oi equipping mom
with an oiiicieucy protected harbor,
whtre the shlprr can lie surely iii an
chor and yet be in a position to strike
quickly at the North Sea. As a mutter
or fact other naval bases are being or
noted on the east coast at Great Brit-
ain. One is now nearing completion
ut Roayth in Scotland. and another
new harbor is to be constructed in the
Urkn‘eys.
'i‘he Dover harbor. begun in 1898. has
been secured by constructing three
arms or walls. The well known Ari-
rniralty pier. which bed a length of
i.000 test. has been estouded another
2.000 tent and forms the western arm
oi the harbor. The second runs out

and the third arm is the breakwater.

dispatch. The retailers declare the

John H. Schodeld. secretary oi the

an attempt will be made at the conveu- .

operative sbattolrs. rendering plants

meets to be made ior trying the es-

"We ieel certain that the project
will go through." he said. “This move
will enable the retail butcher to op-
erate independently. We propose to
irlll all our cattle and to market the
byproducts. With the great prodt
that would accrue from the bypro-
ducts, we would be able to retail meat
to the consumer at least dity per cent.
cheaper than the pi ices now salted and
still make a healthy prolit."
Fred 6 Harold. president oi the
Chicago brunch oi the Budhelsor or-
ganisation. said: "We will have to
compete in the purchase of cattle. but
we think we, can do that. To get the

H Macdonsiri. in his annual report.
lakes a position that is regarded by
tho ‘oldor members" oi the Knights
oi Columbus as stating ‘esacntlally
their attitude in their suit to obtain
a division oi certain accumulations
oi the order.
Says the mmmisaioner: “it has be-
come the custom for iralornuls to in-
creaar the rates or assessment when
ever it becomes necessary to do so
to prolong their existence.
"Birch increases always tell heari-
ost on the older members
"it has been contended that the
right to do this lay in the tool that
certificates were issued upon the or
pressly stair-d condition that the mom.
be: insured must comply with all the
rules and laws of the order.
"The use. or rather abuse. oi this
condition has iorcod many thousands
at persons oi. long standing in ira-
ternsl orders either to pay pmhibi~
live rates oi assessment in their lot.
or days or drop out at the organisa-
tion they had been ’supporilng.
"The practice has been the subject
oi numerous actions in both state
and federal courts. but decisions
have been coollictlng.’
Continues the commissioner: "The
Court oi Appeals of New York hilln,
however. has recently met this situs
lino fairly.
“'i‘hls murt. while recognising the
isci that increased assessments are
necessary because of early inadequacy
oi rains. rendered a ioalcal decision
in which it emphasised the doctrine
that the value oi contracts l iorce
could not be impaired and ital the
customary increases at rates charged
on certificates previously issued could
not be permitted."
The pertinent paragraph or the do-
clslon oi the court so reiorrod to is as
follows:
“A contract that authorised one
person to charge it in any respect
that he chooses would. in sitect.
be binding upon the other part!
only and would leave him at the
mercy or the iorrner. and we have
said that human language is not
sirens enough to place a person
in that situation."
How aptly this decision touches up-
on the case oi the older members or
the Knights oi Columbus is apparent.
when it is remembered that they went
into the order under a contract pro
viding tor the payment oi certain
races. and that those rates were at-
terwsrd extinguished and new and
higher rates were substituted by a
rule oi the order.
The older members do not. however.
she ior the right to enjoy the earlier
rates. but for a distribution of a
sum somawhat loss than hi. 000.000.
which had accumulated under the old
system oi payments. These funds it
is alleged do not form any port oi
the present financial scheme or the
order. and their pro rata distribution
among the older members is sought
to be applied to a reduction of rates.
as for so the amount will go when
distributed according to the number
or payments made by each individual
involved.
