SEABURY, IN BRONX
TOUR, TALKS TO $4,000
Attacks Public Service Commits
sion and Stivers Law

Speaking to about $4,000 voters in
a tour of The Bronx last night, Samuel
Seabury took fling at the Public Ser
vice Commission, the Department of
Foods and Markets and the Stivers
law.
Although you may not know it," he
said, 1--WE have Public Service Com
mission, and | wouldn't blame you a
bit if you didn't know it. You would
never know it from the poor trans
portation facilities you have been get
ting. If | am elected Governor | will
give this commission the necessary
power to go ahead and enforce the
law. | will see to it that its powers
are not curbed so that it cannot COM
pei the big public service corporations
TO furnish adequate service"
He declared that, if elected, he
would see that the Department OF
Foods and Markets cooperated in the
distribution OF foodstufs so that the
farmer would receive more for his
products and the consumer pay less.
He repeated his assertion that large
public service corporations should be
taxed on their franchises as well as on
tangible assets.

GERMANS ADMIT
MUNITIONSFA FAILED
Losses on SOmme Due to
Shortage, Now Over
come, Berlin Says

Berlin, Oct. 81 (via London, Nov. -.
The stiffening of the German defen-
sive on the Somme. which is credited
here with stopping the Allied push on
Bapaume and Peronne and limiting the
advance of the French and British to
insignificant gains, is due TO the res
toration of the artillery equilibrium
between the two armies.
Since this has been achieved, 1t may
be stated that Germany in Angus was
confronted with difficulties in the sup
ply of munitions and the replacement
of worn-o out or damaged guns, which, It
is declared, was largely responsible Tor
the successes then scored by the Allies.
For the second time during the war
the first being during the concluding
phases of the 1914 campaign-the GER
man experts found that their cdlcula-
tions were outrun by facts and were
faced by a consumption OF guns ana
shells far beyond what was expected.
The formation of Department OF
Munitions. announced yesterday, is an
outward sign of their determination not
again TO be caught mapping, but to IN
crease the production OF munitions 10
the utmost possibilities.
German industry in this production
has passed the requirements OF imme-
date consumption, but, as Field Mar
shall Won Hindenburg recently declared,
il must not stop here. and a margin OF
safety mus, be establis shed, limited only
by the possibilities of production, as is
the case sn enemy countries.

Berlin, Nov. ! (vW wireless to Say
Vile, n. YD.-The German government,
in retaliation for the alleged failure
of the French government to keep an
agreement regarding the release Of
prisoners, has determined to send two
hundred French men and women Of

French districts to Germany. The Of
fetal statement on this subject given
out for publication through the Over
seas News Agency to-day says:
THE German and French govern
ments last January agreed about the re-
lease of civilian prisoners on both
sides. Thus, all German women in
termed in France and all German men
younger than seventeen or older than
fifty-fve years, as well as all unfit for
military service, had just claim TO be
sent home, except If indicted for
crimes.
France has not kept the agreement,
refusing the right of departure TO a
large number of the Germans, espe-
cially from Alsace Lorraine. among
them women and children. without Civ
ing reasons. The German representa-
lions having met with no success, the
German government has decided upon
reprisals. and will first arrest two hun
bred French men and women of repre-
sentative families in occupied French
districts and then send them 10 Ger
many. They will be detained there I'M

GREEK SHIP SUNK;
VENIZELOS FOR WAR
Thirty Lives Lost on Vessel Car
rying Volunteers

Athens. Nov. 1.-The 5,000-ton Greek
merchantmen Xxi lssaias was torpe-
coed Yesterday off the coast of Plreus'
near the point where the Greek steam
err Angheliki was sunk last week. No
details of the sinking of the XXI Is
saias have been received.
The latest estimates place the loss or
life on the Angheliki at thirty men.
The steamer was bound for Salonlca
with 800 volunteers for the Nenizellst
army. She was sent 70 the bottom
seven and a half miles OFF Plreus with
out any warning.
The greatest indignation has been
aroused among the Greek people by
the sinking of the Angheliki.
Ex-Premier Venizelos is quoted to-
cay as saying:
man submarine in the territorial wa
tiers of Greece against vessel plying
between Greek ports. The lamentaDle
death of many Greek citizens gives the
last chance to King Constantine to re-
store national unity by assuming dlrec-
ton of the sacred struggle which I'M
periously is necessitated by the honor
and vital interests of Greece"
In a statement issued yesterday the
German Legation doubts that the
Anpheliki was torpedoed, and that If
she was the carrying Of achievements
to the Allied armies justified the act,
since the German government had Of
fcially advised the Greek government
that merchant ships carrying supplies
for the Allies would be torpedoed with
out warning. The statement read:
"No Greek vessel on regu lar course
would have been summarized unless 1t
was carrying reinforcements to the AL
lied armies at Salonica. Furthermore,
the legation is convinced that the hour
and circumstances of the sinking pre-
clude the possibility that the vessel
was summarized"

Six Counties to the
Democrats

Newton A. X. Bugbee, Republican
state chairman Of New Jersey, has re-
ceived estimates from his county chair
men which give the Republican ticket a
state plurality of 26,5O0 votes. New
Jersey has twenty-one counties, fifteen
Of which, according to their Republican
county chairmen, will show Republican
pluralities, as follows:

Mr.. Bugbee explained yesterday that
at the meeting at which he obtained
these estimates he cautioned the chair
men TO give him figures based on the
results Of the most recent elections
and that the estimc ties, therefore, are
derived from the Assembly elections OF
a year and two years ago. The as

Gets a Cold Welcome
The smallest crowds that have greet

from Shadow Lawn welcomed him here
to-day. While Buffalo is additionally
phlegmatic and reserved IN its greet
ing to strangers, there was little IN the
Presidents reception 20 encourage
Democrats i'm the belief that ne could
carry Erie County. Hardly more than
the customary crowds were on the
streets, and few cheers were heard.
Buffalo is the second largest railroad
city in the country, yet there was little
evidence Of labor's response TO the
Presidents visit. Little was heard Of
the "eight-hour day" and, except for
welcoming engine whistles IN the
yards. even the trainmen were cold in
their greeting.
Altogether, political observers do not
feel that the Presidents visit has
added appreciably to Democratic
chances Of carrying New York State.
Legislative Field Wider
In his afternoon speech the Presi-
dent said in part:

Of political action is widening about

judgment Of thoughtful men. We
used to think that We saw the field Of
legislation tolerably well defined. bu.
you perceive. | take II for granted,
that that field has not only greatly
widened but indefinitely widened.
There arc a great many social ques-
tons now with which legislation has
to deal. very profound and radical
questions.
There are questions Of justice,
there are questions even of moral
health; enc Of the things that America
is beginning TO perceive is that'a court
of law, for example, is not necessarily
court Of justice. Law too seldom
has any heart in IT. too seldom has am
bowels OF compassion, too seldom has
any quick sympathies Of perception.
Wanted Social Justice
"Let me make an allusion, which
may seem like political allusion. but
il is not so intended. The reason that
the Progressive party was formed four
years ago was that the large body Of
men who formed that party made up
their minds that the party they were
separating themselves from had not
thought out the questions Of social
justice. Is that not so? The pro-
gramme OF that new party, aside from
the items that you would expect IN all
