that the bills may be SO shaped that

To the Voters Of the Third District:
For several weeks have been want
ing to leave Washington and 60 home
to take part in the campaign, but so
far it has been impossible for me to get
away. This session of Congress is
nearing it's close. The House has about
completed it's program, but the Senate
is far behind with its work. A number
of important bills are in conference
between the two Houses, and other I'M
portant bills are yet to pass the Senate.
They will be amended and come to con-
ference. The Democrats have a ma
jority of only some 90 IN the House,
and if very many of them go away some
of the important bills may be emascu-
lated or defeated entirely. The leaders

COMPLETE SUMMARY
OF U-BOAT ACTIVITY
READY FOR WILSON
State Department Has Prepared a
Long List of Recent Activities of
Teutonic U-BOats for Review
by Chief Executive

Washington, November 10-A complete
summary of the situation growing out
of recent activities of German submarines
is being prepared at the state depart
ment for submission to President Wilson
on his return to Washington Sunday.
Officials admit informally that the out
look is more disturbing than it has been
at any time since the sinking of the chan
mel steamer Sussex.
Official information still is incomplete
in all the cases being investigated by
the department, including those Of the
British passenger liner Arabia, and the
British freghter Marina, on which six
Americans lost their lives. Reports from
British sources have said that both ships
were torpedoed without warning.
The American embassy at Berlin was
instructed last week to ask the German
foreign office for it's version of the sink
ing of the Marina. The embassy has
not been heard from, but confidential adj
vices received here today from Berlin
said the embassy had been informed that
the incident would be thoroughly in
vestigated as soon as reports from sub
marines now cruising had been received
but that the German government had
not changed it's submarine policy, and
did not believe the ship had been at
tackled without warning
Aside from the specific cases about
which inquiry is being made. disquiet has
been caused here by the general sweep
submarine warfare has taken recently
Officials fear that the submarines are
operating on such a scale and under
such conditions that it may be impos-
s!ble for them to avoid endangering Amer
leans illegally.
