have been aware for some time that a
radical Improvement in the water sys-
ter at the school is desirable. but
they have had no funds available
for that purpose. Stating that the
institution is not operated in several

LONDON, Feb 1.-THE British
vessel Arabs. reported sunk by
German torpedoboat, off Dogger Bank
Thursday night, was an oil driven
steamer only recently completed. and
not a cruiser as Berlin claimed. the
Chronicle stated today. The Arabs
displaced S,697 tons and was $50 feet
long 1t was pointed out that the Ger
mans might easily have mistaken her
for a light cruiser at first
yet it ought to have been plain to
them that she was not a cruiser in an
ordinary sense" said the Chronicle,
commenting on the German statement
that three officers and q of the Arabs
crew were rescIed.
"A cruiser of any kind would carry
a personnel of more than "a men,"
The British Admiralty report of the
encounter mentioned only mine
sweepers as having been engaged.
Berlin, however. admitted the German
torpedoboats suffered damage. indicat-
ing that heavier British warships may
have joined in the battle.

Austria have built their contention
that armament on merchantmen make

assumed a degree OF certainty ever
since Secretary Lansing made his
first ruling regarding Allied mer-

ports with guns aboard. He las all
