UNITED Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Radical
changes in the type of new subma-
rines to be built for Uncle Sans navy
are being worked out by the chief na-
val constructor. Navy officials ad-
mitted today that some new wrinkles
in submersibles probably would be
adopted when congress authorizes the
proposed new fleet of undersea craft
which will represent the latest
thought in such construction.
Especial attention is being given,
Secretary Daniels states, to the ques-
tion of submarine construction. A
corps Of experts, at home and abroad,
are collecting information to be as
simulated in the next new U. S. sub
marine.
Electric propulsion is the latest in
submarines, according to the present
determination Of the naval construc-
tors. 1t is probable that electric mo-
tors may be used exclusively in the
future Naval authorities also con-
template diyesting the present fleet
of submarines of gas engines and
substituting electric power.
One difficulty in the way Of U. s.
naval progress in building subma-
rines is the patent monopoly which
confines this government to one type
Of submersible. This is the Lake
type. While other types with some
most desirable features are being
built Secretary Daniels says the gov
eminent never has been able to
reach satisfactory terms with patent
ees Of other submarines than the Lake
variety. Negotiations are in pro-

gress, however, by which the govern
ment may be able to adopt some of
the more desirable features of other
patterns.
The government would not be bar
red from using the other patents in
case the U. S. became involved in
war, however, according to Secretary
Daniels. He admitted that the gov
ernment would not hesitate to appro-
pirate the submarine patents and use
them in building its own submarines
in time of war. Compensation would
be given the patentees, Of course, or
they could resort to the courts-but
after the government had received
the benefit Of submersible patents.
The government, according to Secre-
tary Daniels, would not hesitate to
adopt such a policy, as a matter OF
defense in a time Of national peril.
without regard to the contract and
patent rights of patentees.
Secretary Daniels hopes that con-
gress will eventually authorize con-
struction by the government itself Of
all its submarines. 1t is now build
ing some on the Pacific coast, the
only government plant at present
equipped for submarine construction,
These are Of the oil burning type
Speeding up private contractors
on government submarine contracts
is another innovation promIsed by the
secretary. He will insist that con-
tracts given private concerns stipu-
late quicker delivery. The secretary
believes that in the past contractors
have been slow about completing the
government craft. He cites the in
stance Of the ill-fated F-4, which
sank last March outside Honolulu
harbor This boat was only two
years old. having been commissioned
in 1913. but five years elapsed be-
fore congress authorized her construc-
tion from the date. in 1913, when she
was delivered to the navy.
On the other hand, the Fore River
Construction Co., of Mass, has just
completed ten electric submersiDles
for one of the allies in the record OF
eight months. They were ordered in
January and are now lying, finished
in the ship yards at quincy Mass
By agreement with Charles Schwao
who took the order for one OF the
allies the boats will be held in Am
erican waters until after the war.

This fact explains two important di.

On the other hand, a word of the
music language may consist Of several
tones heard simultaneously, which is
impossible in language. Some Of the

especially since this is one of the most
frequent and dangerous diseases of
infancy and early childhood, every
mother should possess some knowl-

mother presence of mind and decisive
ness of action, both of which are in
dispensable in such exigencies.
Among the various causes of spasms
are the onset of some severe illness
such as pneumonia or scarlet fever,
indigestion, constipation, intestinal
worms, high fever from whatever
source, disordered dentition, diseases
of the brain, very hot weather, fright,
pain, ricketts,, whooping cough,

C0UNTRY'S EXCESS OF MALES
In the United States There Is a Re
VersaI of the Conditions
in Europe.

In the United States as a whole
the number of males is 1852, 2SS in
excess of the number of females, the
ratio being LOG males to 100 females.
In most European countries a re-
verse situation prevails. In England
and Wales the number of males to
100 females is only 93.7; in France,
96.7; in the German empire, 81; in
Italy, 96.5, and in Russia, $50.
The excess of males in the United
States is chiefly due to extensive i'm
migration, a much larger proportion
of the immigrants being males than
females. In 1907, for example, out
of a total immigration of 1885, 349,
only 355,373 were females.
Among the Irish born, however,
the females outnumber the males in
a ratio of 100 to S2.6, the explana-
ton being the large number of Irish
girls who come to the United States
to engage in domestic work.

THE NEWSPAPERS COURAGE

Once in a while somebody gets the
idea that the reason the local paper
does not report every scandal that
comes to public knowledge is because
the publisher is afraid That's not
the reason. The reputable newspaper
takes no delight in giving publicity to
those things that have brought dis
grace to ONE family or heartache to
some wife or mother. 1t is much more
pleasant to record the good things
that happen, to tell about incidents
that tend to make life more enduraDle
and that uplift rather than tear down.
that bring Joy instead of sorrow,
pride instead of heartache. So, if you
don't always find in our paper the de-
lectableN bit of gossip that would
doubtless make good reading" aud
If you are inclined to blame the edi-
tor because he doesn't print all the
news" consider that some home has
had enough worry over unfortunate
happenings. and that the gossips and

give sufficient publicity to the details
to satisfy the lowest tastes. - Ex-
