EXECUTIVE is CONVINCED THAT SUSSEX
WAS TORPEDOED WITHOUT WARMING
AND ONLY AWAITS PROOFS.
(By International News Serviceo

WASHINGTON, March 2o.-It is believed in
onlclai ana diplomatic circles that President Will
son Will take the submarine situation to CONGRESS
with recommendations that diplomatic relations
with Germany be severed.
he president is convinced that the Sussex was
torpedoed without warning and is only waiting for
proof before acting
The status of the Eng1ishman and Manchester
have not yet been definitely decided, but the Sus
sex IS regarded as the most important and the case
upon which action will be based
1t IS expected that the necessary proofs will be
received within the next week and President Will
son expects to act within ten days
Affldavits of three surviving Americans on the
steamer EngllShman have been cab1ed from Liver
pool and state that the vessel shel1ed before be-
ing torpedoed and sunk. Officials state that this
IS almost conclusive evidence that the vessel tried
to escape If the assertions made in the affidavits
are true the submarine commander was within his
rights in sinking the Eng1ishman
Later in the day Secretary Lansing stated that
affldavts submitted indicate that the Englishman
was stopped when the torpedo actually fired
This would make the case of the Englishman paral-
lei to the Ancona case

such a deplorable condition through the acts Of the central powers.
 When it Is claimed that such relief as might be sent to Poland will be uaed by the Poles 1t is doubtless true that 1t would but when 1t Is found that the Poles had sufficient supplies had they been left intact 1t can be realized that every shipment of goods to those people through neutral sources or by those of De11ikerent countries who would extend helping hand is resulting to the benefit of the armies in the field. Thus it becomes plain why English opposition is manifested towards aiding the Poles There is plenty of sympathy and 8 full recog- nition of the sad situation in which Poland finds itself today but there Is no disposition to help the Poles that that which belongs to them can be utilized for the maintenance of the armies of the enemy.

POLISH RELI,EF.

The plight of the Poles in the war stricken sections of Europe has called forth much sympathy and the contri- button of large sums from the people Of this country ever since attention was attracted to the conditions into which they have been forced. That they have been driven from their homes which have been destroyed and left to eke out a living; as best they can in a devastated country makes the situation there one wi1fch those who are interested in humanitarian work cannot disregard.
 Such being the case 1t seems hard hearted and innuman for certain Brit tsh leaders to be opposing the partici- patton of the English people in send ing what purports to be relief for those people in distress, even though it is in the shape of food, but the ground for such a stand appears to be well taken when it is declared that }he opposition is manifested because he people ofz Poland are placed in

Stories of the War
Devices for War.

Shares for submarines, frighteners for Zeppelins and traps for the Ger mans in the trenches are but a few of the weird devices produced by anna teur inventors that the British Muni- tions Inventions Department is called on to consider. One look by the ex- perts settles their fate, with rare ex- captions, for most of the inventors are innocent of the science of mechanics.
 These appliances as rule look like the work of professional humorists
 But their authors are annoyingly in earnest. As an example of the kind of schemes the department Is asked to consider, one man proposed this scheme for catching submarines. Ships equipped with a running moose of steel rope and a plate glass window in the keel were to engage in the chase. When the watcher at the plate glass window reported a submarine, the men on the deck wouldu pull the moose around the body of the unsuspecting victim, then haul up and bring it as a prize into harbor. Another inven- ton, ignoring the mechanical details, invented hopping motors to use in breaking through the Germans lines. The motors. heavily armored and bristling with guns, were to jump like grasshoppers over obstacles and trenches. Half a million spring-leg- ged motors, according to the inventor, would end the war. There have been many types of Zeppelin -strafers" sub m1tted. But none have been adopted.

BLACK OPAL, ARREST GEM.
Found in Only One Place and Worth
 More Than Diamond.

Black opals cost more, carat for carat, than do diamonds even, while experts declare that they are infin- itely more beautiful.
 And in this connection it may De pointed out that the term black opar' a distinctly misleading. It was coined to distinguish it from the familiar light opal"
 As a matter of fact, the black opal Is alive with myriad shades of fam ing splendor, from brightest tints of green glowing fire to meteoric gold or lavender, that in an instant Quivers to crimson, or slips into molten ruby or sapphire. as the angle of light alters.
 Black opals are so dear, not only be- cause they are so beautiful, but be- cause they are so rare. They are lively small tract of ground in New South Wales, adjoining the Queens land border.
 The field is called Lightning Ridge. The nearest towns to 1t are Walgett and Collarendabri, and it about 500 miles from Sydney as the crow flies.
 Black opal mining is about the big gest gamble extant. There Is really nothing to guide the miner in select ing a likely spot. The shafts average 40 feet in depth, and all rocks has to be ''bucketed' to the top. Water is scarce, food almost unobtainable.
 On the other hand, the prospector who is lucky enough to stumble upon a pocket" of fair-sized, fiawless stones reaps a fortune forthwith. - Stray Stories

MEXICAN LOANS

The question of finances is one which is giving Carranza much con- cern and we'll 1t might for money is an essential thing even in the running of a well established government, Eff forts have been made to secure loans in this country but in view of the chances which surround such propo- sitions and the many other avenues which are open to capital where req sonabie certainty exists there Is noth- ing very surprising over the fact that no one is anxious to encounter the risk which must of necessity accom- pany every dollar put into Mexico.
 While Carranza may be making progress in his own way he has a tre- mendous struggle before him to fges that republic back to the position where it's credit will be as good as it was under Madero or even Huerta for the latter even showed that he was able to borrow. While from the out side it might appear that Carranza is in control of affairs in Mexico he has not as yet located the seat of his gov ernment at Mexico City and he has apparently made no great strides to- wards tho vast amount of reconstruc- tion work which awaits his direction.
 It is incumbent upon Carranza to show his ability to straighten out the unenviable tangle in which Mexico's affairs are, to demonstrate the fact that he means business and that a constructive and not a destructive ad- ninistration has its grip on the af- fairs of that nation. It may be that he cannot go far in this line without new capital but when he can furnish the evidence that will satisfy those who have the money to lend that 1t will not be thrown away then can he expect to get the ear of the f1nanciers,

q believe in luck" asserted the man who boarded the train at Hyde Park. sIt's just dosgone fool luck that boasts most men! Faithful endeavor and conscientious effort may be highly ad- mirable, but the man who gets his salary raised most always has lIt ffom just plain luck!"
 "Why this bitter philosophy" in quired the man who had got on the train at Woodlawn.
 .''Tt's my brother-in-l law" gloomily said the Hyde Park citizen. Not that don't like Ed--only I was lots fon- der of him when 1 could look down on him from the proud superiority or my financial independence and feel that could teach him things! Ed always was one of these cocky, cheer full youths whom you feel impelled to impress or step on or something like that just to keep them in their proper place! I always felt that if Ed got hold of any real money I'd have to lose my temper with him.
 'cHe came to spend the holidays with us this time, as usual Every year since Edith and I were married Ed has turned up with his piaster-stuck suitcase, a cheerful smile, a box Of handkerchiefs for Edith and some cigars for me. He has been travel ing man for varnish concern since he left college, at a moderate salary But there was something unreal about Eds appearance this year.
 He had on an overcoat that shout ed $50 and he had trunkful of clothes instead of a suitcase. He took us to the opera, and when I kept on my bus mess suit for supposed balcony seats Ed, attired like Solomon, looked po- litely surprised. He said that of course it was all right, but in orchestra seats well, you should have seen Edith and me chasing upstairs and doing a quick change act! There was a taxi waiting, and when Ed said casually that his own car was bought but de- livery was slow, I just naturally faint ed away. When We reached our own home after a S10 supper I took him firmly by the arm. 1 told him he might just as we'll confess the location of the bank he had robbed and would see what I could do to straighten things out for him.
 Tt was then that he told me his preposterous tale of luck! It seems that for years his firm had been trying to land the trade of the Rose brothers in a big southern city. To get their trade away from a rival varnish firm became sort of a mania with Eds boss. But the Roses were quite well satisfied with the varnish they were selling and would not even bother with listening to the salesman. Each | time he was in that vicinity Ed called

WHERE THEY BELONG.

It may have been an unusual spec tacIe to see Speaker Clark and Minor ity Leader Mann as they argued side by side in behalf of national defense before the lower house of congress but it must be recognized that their position was the correct one and that patriotism took precedent over poli- tics.
 The vote failed to bring out any opposition to the measures which were under consideration but showed a gen. eral recognition on the part of the lawmakers of the need of making pro- vision for more officers in the navy and of providing the facilities for the turning out of new battleshlps as soon as possible in order to further strengthen the first line of defense.
 It was the opening gun Of the fight in congress for adequate preparation and it called for just such a joining of forces as took place. To have done otherwise would have to place poli- tics before country, a position which could never be sanctioned by the peo- pie of this nation whichever side may have displayed the opposition.
 No question has arisen on which unified action needs to be taken more than on this very one of putting the defenses of the country in a proper state of preparation for safeguarding its interests and for the maintenance of the peaceful relations with other na- tions for which it has so strongly stood The cooperation of Congressmen Clark and Mann in this cause is only what the people had a right to expect and it is to be hoped that the same spirit of serving the country will be manifested throughout subsequent considerations of like matters.

 MT. Editor: A news item in today's Bulletin indicates the possibility of the spread of scarlet fever by milk bottles taken from my house. My daughter Madeline fell sick on Jan. 18th, her case was diagnosed as scarlet fever on Friday afternoon, Jan. 14th, and a quarantine was established Saturday morning, Jan. 18th. Three other cases were recognized as scarlet fever on Sunday, Jan. 18th, and were quaran tined. Two other cases have appeared since at the college, one outside of the college and four among students who went away
 No specific scarlet fever germs have a germ it is probably too small to be seen with a microscope. The modern theory of the spread of disease is that the germs are carried by a rather di- rect contact, not through the air. In this instance, it does not seem possi- ble that the germs could have been carried by milk bottles because in the first place Madeline did not handle the milk bottles, secondly, all milk bottles from my house were washed, sca1ded and set on the portico to air; thirdly, all bottles, when returned to the dairy, were sterihzed, and, since Friday. the 14th. were also soaked in formalin and then sterilized; fourthly, no other user of bottled milk caught the disease.
 The student who delivered the milk and was afterwards taken sick with scarlet fever Is not of the opinion that he contracted the disease through his work at the dairy.
 Yours very truly,
