officials in their belief that Germany is
following out its pledge to keep U
boat warfare within international law
1t was pointed out that the geo.
graphical proximity Of the new zone
of operations to, American shores
could not in itself impair the legality
Of properly conducted high seas war
fare.
Should a submarine fotilla develop
patrol approximating blockade
outside American ports, however, a
serious issue might arise. The United
States notified Great Britain early in
the war that it regarded the continued
presence of belligerent warships in
the offings of the great American
commercial centers" as a practice
which may be regarded according to
the canons OF international courtesy
as a Just ground for offense, although
it might be strictly legal" The
British government replied that it was
unaware OF the existence OF any
rules or principles of international
law which render belligerent opera
tons which are legitimate in one part
Of the high seas illegitimate in an
ether" but, nevertheless, moved back
its cruisers from the immediate vicin-
ity Of American territorial waters.
Start Of Big Campaign.
That the attacks off Nantucket
marked the opening of an organized
campaign in the western Atlantic is
not doubted here. Many officials be-
lieve that at least two, and possibly
a half dozen or more u boats are as
sembled for the campaign, and that a
supply ship, perhaps submersible
of the Deutschland type, also is pres
ent. Whatever the American destroy
er Aotilla in Nthe area of operations
may have discovered regarding the
number of raiders will not be dis
closed, however, the Navy depart
ment holding the dissemination of
such information would be unneutral.
News of the sinking of the many
ships today drew expressions of sat

many ships were gathering there. The

to pay any bills.

Demand for Cars
Greater and Supply
Less Than Year Ago

Lincoln, Oct. Especial while
the demand for cars for loading Is
three times as great as a year ago,
the actual supply is only two-thirds
as great as last year, the Nebraska
State Railway commission announced
today. after making survey, As
the basis for this computation, the
commission took the figures for Sat.
urday, October 4, and compared them
with Saturday, October 6, a year ago.
This is the showing.
A year ago.--Cars ordered, 1,277;
empties available $751;.
This year--Cars ordered, $3.50; cars
available, 2,275.
Some Of the difference Is accounted
for BY the fact that the wet ground
and late threshing last year, prevent
ed the movement Of grain until In
January. The car shortage was then
