The occasion for the dinner was the Admiral's retirement from active service on his '64th birthday. Colonel Simmons read' a letter in which Secretary Wilbur ex pressed regret at his Inability to attend, but the Colonel later In a statement to reporters ex- pressed the opinion that the letter was "but a smoke screen." "The real reason why he did not come and which he made known to me over the telephone." said the statement, fear that his presence at any dinner in honor of Admiral Plunkett so soon after the world-wide publicity In connection with the Admiral's speech at the National Republican Janu- ary 21, would be misunderstood." FIRST ACCEPTED Bra The said Secretary Wil bur had accepted an invitation to the dinner on January 16. The letter of regret came on February The Colonel 'teld reporters he regarded Secretary Wilbur's- absence: as "a public rebuke" to the Admiral.

In his speech of January 81, Admiral Plunkett In urging a large and well-equipped navy said; "If I read history correctly, and what we are doing today, we are nearer war today than we have ever been In onr history because we are too damned effi-cient. 'I don't care whether It Is wltb. Great Britain, or gome other nation, you are going to have war just as surely as you are sitting In this room with me, if you dure to contest 'the control nf the sea -with your goods, not with your Buns." Secretary's Wilbur's letter of re-, gret about last night's dinner gave as his excuse the requlrernent of his presence before the 'Houae naval committee. Admiral Plunkett, when reporters approached him on the subject, waved his hand and said: "Oh, go away, go away, go away!" URGES MERCHANT MARINE. In his speech at the dinner Admiral Plunkett devoted himself reiteration of the need for 'a larg merchant marine and a more pow- erful navy; and did not refer to tl.

absence of the navy secretary. He said the problem of a mer chant marine was closely connected with the freedom of the seas and that "international freedom of the. seas Is Insurance for International peace. History shows that 'no nation Is lastingly great without sen powerir'-Let America return to the 1 sea." The Admiral is now to be asso-, elated with a New York stock exchange firm.

The honor rlglitfully belongs to Mr. Capwell, the founder of the business, and which has grown to become in turn the foundation of the greater commercial enterprise to be housed on this site. "Mr. Capwell has sent the following cablegram from Algiers: 'Greetings from Africa. Ground breaking for greater store brings realization of my dreams of past 3Q years.

Appreciation ami support of Eastbay people, coupled with loyal co-operation of employees, make this undertaking possible. May success of past years be seed for a great future. Regret cannot turn first Carl Hoffman, editor of the Post-Enquirer, predicted that the Oakland metropolitan area would, in time, extend to San Jose. "I wonder we have vision enough really to contemplate Oakland's future," he said. "Oakland has had a downtown and an uptown business area.

The location of this big department store will mark the breaking of the boundaries of the downtown area, I predict that the downtown area of the future will extend to Hayward and the Ojntra Costa line." Hoffman read a telegram from Richard A. Carrlngton, publisher or the paper, expressing regrets he could not attend because of a meeting In Atlanta. "Congratulations to the far-seeing merchants of the Capwell and Emporium companies who have merged their interests," the telegram read, "to give Greater Oakland a greater store and to give Central its finest mercantile establishment in all ar-'a. The ground-breaking today is another milestone In the progressJ of Oakland as a retail business center. "The great stoe for which ground is being broken today and the great 'City that store will serve will grow and prosper together, each supporting and helping the" other.

The Interests of the city as a whole are dependent upon the building up of a central retail shopping district commensurate with a city of half a million people a city that wiil soon have a million people." A HUGE FOREGROUND. Edward A. Vandeventer, editor and publisher of the Oakland Times, pointed out that three-fourths of the world's population is In front of Oakland, across the Pacific, and Insures a grea.t market for its factories. "In adMitlon," Vnrrreventer continued, "Oakland has productive and growing back country to guar-ante its steady development. Commercially, Oakland's destiny Is already revealed.

There can be no doubt as to its future supremacy. LARGE TRADING AREA. "This city's Industrial expansion has been so amazing Its recent progress as a shopping center perhaps has been overlooked by some of us. But now Its new stage of develop ment-Is a reality. Two bridges over the straits have added large areas to Oakland a natural trading center and low plans are being formu lated for the building of another bridge that will bring thousands of additional shoppers within easy distance of this city's retail stores.

With transportation facilities being constantly Improved between Oakland and its back country, the need for more and larger stores is apparent and that need is being met intelligently and aggressively. E. B. Field, president of the chamber of commerce, declared that the new store represents the first stage of a period of develop ment which will bring Oakland abreast of any city In the state. PROGRESS IN EASTBAY.

Field added: "Among the factors of remark able progress in the Eastbay In the past five years are the following: Just completing enlarged school program expending 10, 000,000. "Providing pure abundant mountain water supply costing In ex cess of JB0, 000,000. "Providing increased harbor facilities that the ships of the world can dock and handle a cargo. This costs about "Better communication between Oakland and Alameda, through the tube under the estuary, to be opened In thfs year. "Something over 100 new industries per year, adding payrolls and new population, new churches, new clubs, office buildings and many homes.

A nntable group of speakers hailed the construction of the store as an important milestone In the economic progress of the city, martins concrete evidence that great interests believe in the future of the Ea.stbay area. Ajcrowd of more-than 7500 attended the exercises, which were broadcasted over radio. Simplicity featured the program. There was a band and an airplane flew overhead, but the crowd seemed content to hear just why the occasion Was an Important one. "When completed," said A.

Capwell, "accepted the congratulations onJehalf of the organization, "this atore will bring of new monev Into Oak land. Ey that I mean monev In ad- dltlon to that already Invested.

"We are confronted with a big undertaking. I was a little worried about what the prospects were before us until 1 listened to the newspaper men here, and now I feel reassured- that everything" will be consummated as desired.

"Mr. Capwell and Mr. Lavenson have built up a very great busl-n ness. Now we who come in with capital from outside your city will do our part. hope to show you all that it is in our powerj; to help this community grow." TO BE FINISHED NEXT YEAR.

The structure, which is to be completed in August of 1920. will be four stories high with a basement fortyfeet high and foundations to carry six additional stories, a totaj of ten, which the owners confldently'ejfpect will be required before many years. When, completed the stole. will be one of the largest on the coast. Mayor John L.

Davie turned the first shovelful of earth and Cebert Cap ell, son of the founder of the business, was at the controls of the steam shovel as the first scoop of earth was dumped Into the waiting trucks. Evidences that both the mayor and young Capwell were out of practice drew laughter from the crowd. Mayor Davie appeared to experience some difficulty in getting a shovelful, while Capwell's steam showel cascaded a shower of dirt on an interested spectator. Mayor Davie declared he believed the event an epochal one because it showed that the boundaries of the old shopping district had been definitely broken. score of years," he said "the boundaries of our' central business district havet remained practically indentlcal.

Within them we have done little more than to add height and more height to our buildings. BUSINESS RESTRICTED. "An erroneous sense of expediency, based on mental inhibition rather than physical- demands, erected a wall about our downtown Olstrlct, restricting business development wlthing certain definite bounds. CL'he Capwell-Emporlum backers have broken these old bonds. They recognize that the resultant congestion of a closely concentrated business district, by making bust ness less facile, defeats its own And so, with logic, foresight, courage and faith in their city-, they start construction outside the old walls.

That the will have success is certain. And the city likewise' will gain by this addition on the northern flanks of the formerly elf-sufficient area is doubly cer- "Today the turning of the first spadeful of earth in the site of the new store marks an event that Is probably epochal in the history of Oakland's development. We who today witness this first definite physical movement in the construction of what is to be our city's biggest purely retail establishment can visualize in it Oakland's onward march toward a greater metropolltanism and with that vision before us we can feel an ever-mounting pride in our rapidly growing end happily prospering community," Joseph R.

PARTON. Special CcTreipondent The Oakland TRIBUNE NEW YORK. Feb. lfi.

Modern police efficiency rests on the scriptural proposition, oV "ninety and nine" to one. In reporting that of 2200 girls who disappear annually In New york. nn almost unvarying proportion of 99 per cent are found and returned safely to their homes. Moody and Sankey once stirred great audiences to tears with their hymn, "Ninety and Nine that safely lay-in the shelter of the fold; but one was lost and gone astray. Into the night and cold." Now.

as then. Just this one ewe lamb out of a hundred Is missing. Recent sensational of the disappearance of young persons have caused widespread public dis cussion, and stimulated Inquiries Into the aberrations of youth. Lists of missing persons are broadcast nightly over the radio, and there Is Increasing comment on the Insta bility of modern boys and girls. New York City, particularly, has been pictured as a bottomless pit Into which errant and groping youth is lost to human ken.

YOUTH NOT ON TOBOGGAN. Obtain John H. Ay res, head of the New Vork City bureau of missing probably knows more about this than anybody else. He Is a kindly man. gentle In his contacts with troubled homes, and his understanding of the strange Impulses of youth has brought many a boy and girl back to their par-ents, He denies emphatically that youth of today is on a moral toboggan.

"Unhappy home life Is accountable for a majority of the disap pearances," said Captain Ayres. "in many, many cases the blame rests squarely on the parents. Parents have much to say about the obligations and responsibilities of youth. They have too little to say about their own responsibilities. Naturally many of these disappearances are from poor homes.

It is understandable. In working on these cases we often find that six or seven -children live with their parents In two or three rooms There is no chance for decent recreation, and no standards around which a wholesome home life may be built. In fact, we often find that it is the superior child, with enterprise and courage, who gets out of a home like this. BAFFLING PROBLEM. "These parents of the poorer classes are not to be too harshly condemned.

In mauy cases they are foreigners struggling to establish themselves In this country, and their children's adaptation to our life becomes a baffling problem. There is a comparatively small proportion of Jewish children among runaway boya and girls. Jewish children- are carefully nurtured in their home life. "Most of the melodrama written and talked about the perils of youth for committees to announce that they were unable to conclude their labors, all sub-committees should have reported to their full committees," before the end of the It seemed possible, therefore, that the subject 'of Intervention might rise again before the conference In open session with all the sharp debate which follows the introduction of the matter. TILT AT HAVANA Tl BE SETTLED Resolution Is Proposed for Modus Viviendi Until Treaty 0.

K. HAVANA, Feb. 16. OP) In the determination that the Pan-American Union should not be among the unfinished business of the Pan- American congress when It adjourns Monday, an extraordinary meeting of the Fan-Amerjcan Onion committee was called for todny. The report of a sub-committee was awaited on b'oth the actual wording of he convention and upon the draft of a resolution to provide if modus vlvendl for the Pan-American Union until the convention whlrh is.

intended to regulate. Its activities should be ratified by all the 21 republics of this hemisphere. The sub-committee included In Its membership Dr. Honorlo Pueyr-redon, Argentina, who was absent from the union eommlttee meeting yesterday. It was rumored thnt he.

had resigned both as delegate of Argentina to the conference and ambassador to Washington. Dr. Pueyrredon refused to confirm or deny these rumors. Hc said Ills absence was due to 'the fact that- he could have snld nothing the committco had not already heard. STAND OF ARGENTIN AN, Dr.

Pueyrredon in previous speeches before the committee insisted that the Pan-American Union convention in its preamble should commit the union to "the discussion of economic barriers to trade in the Americas. The preamble as approved contained no such provision. The sub-committee was instructed to selectifrom the draft com-vention those clauses needing immediate application to allow the union to function according to views expressed at the present congress. It was hoped that a resolution might be prepared from these which would receive the unani mous approval of the congress. It would thus correspond to the unanimous resolutions of previous congresses under which the anion has been functioning.

The resolution would be especially useful If the convention should fall of ratification by any of the countries which helped to draw' it up and therefor- become effective. OBLIGATIONS OF STATES. The committee on public international law, also meeting today. had before It a number of reports from sub-committees. These included draft conventions on rights and privileges of diplomatic agents, on maritime neutrality, on asylum, on obligations of states in event of civil war, and on the pacific settlement of international disputes.
