DEFENSE LEAGUE IN FAVOR
 OF MANY SUBS

WASHINGTON. Oct. Without @ greatly increased number Of subma- rines for our navy the present move ment for military preparedness in this country win appear to the other nations of the world as ineffective and absurd" according to Q statement today of the National Defense League in session here.
 Primarily, the demand for a big in- crease in submarines comes from the navy officers and naval experts. but it is significant that this request is backed up by army officers of high rank Particularly among the coast artillery and the coast Qualification experts is there Q strong demand for submarines. According to the Ina tional detensers." the explanation of this lies In the fact that there are at various points on the shores of the United States portions of the sea that can be protected only by submarines. This is because Qualifications are not built so that the guns may sweep these waters, and the currents are SO swift and ungovernable that mines cannot be placed in them with any hope of definite results. it is declared.
 A big American submarine building company, according to reports receiv- ed here today, is operating in Can ada SO successfully that, as soon as the submarines are completed for the Allies. they are put into the water and sent across the Atlantic under their own power with fun war equip ment and ready to meet the enemy. The building in Canada. which is de- voted to assembling boats of the Hoi. land type. Is made necessary because of the international law against build ing them in the United States and then sending them to the Allies.
 A submarine costs about half a mil. lion dollars. Three hundred submar. ines flying the Stars and Stripes would cost less than week of actual war, the authorities estimate. and. since a submarine can destroy and battle ship that floats. @ flotilla of 300 oi the under-sea craft would be an un- falling insurance against invasion by a foreign foe at any time.
 The Defense League has for years consistently advocated large approp. riations for submarines. Some of the officers of the League declare that the United States should have not less than 300 of the undersea boats.
 With 300 modern submarines the l United States could defy the world to successfully land troops on American soil
 This statement was made by Lieut. c. R. Morrison. chief aide on tho stad of Rear Admiral Grant, commander oi the Atlantic submarine flotflla and considered the most foremost expert on undersea craft.
 There is not a foreign nation, oi even a combination of nations. that could successfully land sufficient troops on American soil to combat even our present army declared Lieu tenant Morrison.
