PORTLAND, March 26-"The F-4 has been the unluckiest boat of the flotilla." wrote George Deeth to Her mas Plass in a letter dated March '. Deeth is the Portland boy who was member of the crew of the submarine when she was lost off the Hawaiian coast Thursday.

ADMIRAL MOORE REPORTS THE F-4
 BEEN LOCATED
Hope for the Lives of the Men Aboard the Subma- rine Practically Abandon ed Upon Receipt of the Admiral's Message
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH1

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Rear Admiral More at Honolulu cabled the navy department late tonight that the missing submarine F-4 had been located in fifty fahtoms of wa ter. lie gave no details.
 Hope for the lives of the twenty one men aboard the submarine was practically abandoned by naval off cers here on receipt of Rear-Ad- miral Moore's report. The F-4 was designed to resist water pressure at depth of approximately fifty ia thoms, or three hundred feet, but it is believed it would be impossible for her to remain at such depth for any length of time with safety Re- cords show that the Fl a boat of the same type, was operated on her trial trip for just ten minutes at a depth of 2S3 feet her hull groaned and took in water.
 Naval construction experts agree that the tremendous pressure of wa ter at any depth below fifty or sixty feet offers a serious handicap, to say the least, to any effort to pro- vide a safe exit from a sunken sub marine. Many plans have been ad- vanced and considered by the navy from accidents below the surface, but most of these were found impractic- able. Latest reports on the F-4 made public by the navy department in dicated her main engine in good con- dition; that her batteries required overhauling; her hull in good condi- ton and it was otherwise in good shape.
 Escape by means of the torpedo tubes had been suggested often and some time ago, a man aboard the cruiser Tennessee pluckily permitted himself to be shot through the tube He came out safely, but the experi- ment was made at a depth of only ten feet. Submarine officers say at sifty or more feet under water a man who crawled into the tube would be immediately crushed by the pres sure of thirty pounds to he square inch Air chambers are provided ir most of the modern boats, however and at moderate depth the mer might release themselves and rise tC the surface. The F-4 has such 8 contrivance and the coming towers can be arranged in two sections foi this purpose.
 The stay of the submarine below water is limited by the supply oi oxygen. In endurance tests in nol very deep water, A hours has beer the limit.
 There is danger of the development of leaks under high pressure at un. usual depths Commander Stirling in charge of the submarine service says, however, submarine might (CoDtinued on papp SeVen)

Ambassa- dor Morgenthau at Constantinople has been appealed to twice by Sec to urge the Turkish government to send protection to the imperilled sec tion. and it was learned tonight the state department has received defin- lte assurances by the Turkish gov ernment this will be done.
 The British and American authori- ties also appealed to the Russian commander near Tiflis to send sol diers. It is said the Russian gen. erals are awaiting orders.
 We are not prepared to announce what we may or can do in the mat ter,' said Secretary Bryan late in the day. He gave assurances, how ever the department was doing ev erything it could. Directions, he said, have been sent to several Am erican consuls. but nothing has been heard from any of them directly.
 Word was received by the British embassy as well as the state depart ment that the Turkish government has issued orders for saving the Christians.
 Additional directions were cabled to Ambassador Morgenthau by the state department tonight forward ing reports received by the Presby- terian board of foreign missions in New York.

President Harry Fennemore of Chamber of Commerce Makes Strong Plea for Cooperation in This Val ley

Outlining the need and aims of the producers association now being or ganiZed, and the necessity for closer cooperation between the farmers and consumers, President Harry NJ. Fennemore of the Chamber of Com merce addressed the members of the Rotary club at the regular weekly luncheon meeting yesterday noon. In the course of his speech, in which he. brought out the fact that what Rockford, Greedy and other agri- cultural communities in the west had done could be done here President Fennemore made a strong plea for the active and enthusiastic support of the plan by the business men of the city and valley and his remarks were enthusiastically received. He said in part:
 "A short while ago a young man of this valley came in to my office to pass upon an abstract to ten acres of land, which he was buying for $20O an acre. Practically every dol lar he had in the world was devoted to the first payment. A short while ago 1 ndu OCCdSlOH lO NiSil tllS HldH ; place, which is not far from Phoenix. It was in splendid shape. He had four acres of the finest lettuce I ever saw. Two acres of diversified vege- tation, and the remainder in feed for his horses. Besides he had erected a small house. His lettuce crop if placed in the Chicago market would have Yielded him $600.00. His other vegetation almost as much. He had 300 white leghorn chickens and was getting many dozens of eggs each day
 That young man will not be able to market One-fourth of the lettuce crop. He is selling his eggs at twelve and ne-half cents per dozen, when he can sell them and buying chicken feed at the rate of s2.50 per hundred. The rest of his vegetables he will have to use himself or sell

APPELLATE JUSTICES OEMUR
 AGAINST BOUNCING ON THAW

are Justice IngIaham, presiding, and Justice Scott Decision was reserved
 The justices Interrupted Franklin Kennedy, special deputy attorney gen. eral, in charge of the states case, while he was arguing against the ar- peal Dy Thaw's counsel from the de- cision of the supreme court refusing the motion to return Thaw to New Hampshire.
 Counsel for Thaw had already pre- sented arguments based on the con- tention that Thaw had been extra dited on a charge of conspiracy. had been freed on that charge and should be returned forthwith to the state whence he was cxtradited.
 The attorney then began an argu- ment that, though Thaw was &C., quilted, the fact remained that he is now within New York's Jurisdiction, the original commitment to Mattea- wan is still valid, and he should be returned there. Justice Ingraham in- terrupted:
 T am in doubt as to the rights of New York to bounce upon Thaw fol- lowing his acquittal Of crime and return him to hospital for the crim- inal insane. I believe most citizens of this state would regard such action as dishonorable."
 Justice Scott agreed, and informed Kennedy the question at issue was not so much the return of Thaw as main- taining the honor of the state of New York.

Robert A. Craig is city manager in fact. sworn in on Monday, March 15. a few minutes after the city com moving City Manager w. A. Parish. it was not until yesterday morning that Mr Craig actively assumed the functions of the office. He appeared at the city hall each day subsequent to his appointment, but being denied access to the city vault and the city records. he could have made little progress as an executive and so ided his time until the superior commission.
 His first real day in service was spent largely in signing city warrants for the payroll which had been held up from the very day of his appoint ment. Attorneys for the bondsmen of City Treasurer J. c. C. H. Boon yesterday notified him that the su- perior court having recognized the authority of the commission to re-
 move the city manager, made it pro-
 per for him to recognize the new cltN manager ana to cdSU WdTIdn IS signed by him. No small number of the warrants presented yesterday are said to have borne the signature of W. A. Parish as city manager as well as that of MT Craig.

ARM|ES0f WEST AWAIT TURN IN
 CARPATH|ANS
Comparative Inactivity is Noted Along the Whole Western Battle Front While Operations Con tinue in the Carpathians
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1

LONDON, March 26.-The compara- tive inactivity along the whole western front leads to the belief in military circles in London that both armies are awaiting turn of events in the Car pathians before attempting to strike hard blow. The British are still resting on the victory at Neuve Chapelle, a victory which cost them almost as dearly in men as it did the Germans. The Germans, though reported to be massing troops for fresh offensive, have undertaken nothing in the west comparable to their rush of last fall.
 Incredulity is expressed by some mill itary observers that the fall of PrZe mysl will exert an immediate influence on warfare in the Carpathians, but the optimistic British press, using the meagre dispatches relative to the Rus sian victory in the Uzsok Pass as basis, says the Austrian right has been turned and that the evacuation of CzernOwitZ is imminent.
 Germany is declared to be sending vast endorsements into the Carpa- thians and newspapers deem it not il- logical to conclude this fighting at the gateway to Hungary is having and will have a marked influence on the German campaign in the east and west. Rum ors of the approaching intervention of Italy coupled with assertions that Austro- German troops are massing along the Italian frontier continue to be prominently printed, but a founda- tion in fact for them is difficult to find.
 The situation in the Dardanelles, so far as. known, remains unchanged. The admiralty has vouched no confirma- ton of the report that the superdread- naught Queen Elizabeth and other ships, among them the battleship Tri- umph, which recently bOmbarded Smyrna, have entered the straits. Re- ports from allied sources are to the eff feet that German officers are leaving Constantinople and that the situation in the Ottoman capital is gloomy but there is nothing official to show the outlook.
 Editorials in Dutch newspapers are more positive than usual in protests against the sinking of the Dutch steamer Medes off Beachy Head by a German submarine. A dispatch from the Hague says the cabinet council considered the question of damage be- ing done Dutch shipping and that there were also other conferences among government officials. The Dutch gov ernment has already sent to Berlin a protest against the alleged attack by a German aeroplane on the Dutch stem CT Zevenbergen.
