gether in the Engine Room.

Honolulu, Sept. 3.-Ten more bodies
were found to-day in the hull Of the
submarine F-4. They were found

when a hole was cut through the steel
plates to effect an entrance. One body
was identified as that of Ivan L. Mahan,
machinist's mate, Of Lima, Ohio.
Members Of the naval board of in
quiry declined to discuss whether the
finding Of so many bodies in one COM
partment indicated the nature Of the
accident which caused the vessel to
sink on March %, with twenty-five Off
GERS and men on board. 1t was sug-
gested that an explosion elsewhere in
the vessel caused the men to seek ref
uge in the engine room.
Thirteen bodies have been taken
from the hold of the submarine. Others
have been located covered with wreck

Regarding Germany's change in her
attitude toward submarine warfare, we

at is extraordinarily striking that
Germany should suddenly have discov-
