Former Member of Crew of
Imperator Arrested Here
Carl Heimer, German, arrested on
a freight train crossing the, Union Pa
cific bridge, was taken in charge by
United States Marshal Flynn.
When examined by the federal
authorities he stated that he had been
a member of the crew of the interned
German steamer, "Imperator," but he
said he arrived in New York a few
months before the beginning of the
war. He was in this country twelve
years and had been back to visit
relatives in Germany in 1914, working
his way on the "Imperator" as a coal
passer.
Heimer speaks English well. He
denied having either a revolver or a
camera when arrested. He says he is
32 years old and has not taken out
any citizenship papers in this coun
try. "I have three brothers in the war
and two married sisters in Germany,"
he said. "I have not heard from them
since the war started. I have trav
eled all over this country. I have
something wrong with my head the
last few months. I suffer horribly
sometimes. I do not know what it is.
No, I do not know who will win the
war. No, I do not want to be in the
German army."
Heimer probably will be released.

States to license no food exports to
Sweden until a definite understand

its exports to Germany.
Iron ore shipments from Sweden

a total of 9,000,000 tons in the last

Need Half Billion Dollars
More to Build U. S. Ships
Washington, July 9. Another ap

for shipbuilding probably will be
asked of congress immediately by
the administration. Contracts al
ready let and about to be closed,
the shipping board announced to

$500,000,000.
Announcement of the intention
to ask for a second appropriation
was contained in a statement issued
tonight by Chairman Denman of
the shipping board, which carried
the intimation that the second sum
may be used largely for wooden
construction.
"The vast resources of quick
wood construction," it said, "are
still far from exhausted and we be
lieve more steel contracts can be
placed. We need wooden vessels
of both slow and fast speeds. The
slower can relieve our coastwise
congestion and our car shortage.
Many wooden ships can be built
which are faster than the majority
of the vessels now crossing the war
zone."

INDIVIDUAL EFFORT
THING THAT COUNTS
Rev. Mr. DeLarme Points Out
the Cardinal Virtues of the
finished Man of the
World.
Individual morality and its relation
to the communities and the nation,
was a thought that was expanded by
Rev. A. A. DeLarme at the First Bap
tist church Sunday.
"The Unfinished Man Finished" was
Rev. Mr. DeLarme's text. He refer
red to the race riots in East St. Louis
as evidence of a community whose
morals was of a low standard.
"If we would behola a finished man
in the sense of my text, we would see
a man in whom the cardinal virtues
are well grounded," said the minister.
"These virtues, we know, include
integrity, faith in Christ, moral
courage to stand for the right on any
and every occasion. To the extent
that a community has men and women
of those attributes, to that extent wilt
anv community have a morale that
wiil withstand the storms and tem
pests of riot, race hatred and other
disturbing elements. And to the ex
tent that a nation has communities
whose moral atmosphere is whole
some, to that extent witl a nation be
strong."
The minister urged every individual
to do his or her part in making this
community and this nation strong in
morality and all of the desirable attributes.-
He emphasized "that, af
ter all, it is the individual effort that
counts, because a community or a na
tion is made up of individuals."
