WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-A plan for fleet and coast defense subma' rine operations in the Atlantic and the Pacific, calling for 1S3 submers- ihes of all types. was outlined to the house naval committee today by Rear Admiral Grant. the navy's Chiei of submarines Such a force is nee eSsary to insure adequate protection, the admiral said and approximately the number of boats needed are pro- vided for in the administration'S five year building program.
 At present. the committee was told. the United States has just war service Ten other boats are laid up for repairs or oVerhaulins and could not be made ready for duty in less than six months Now under construction or authorized are B submarines. including three big craft of the fleet cruising type
 Admiral Grants plan contemplates thirty divisions of six submersibles each, three divisions to cruise with
 
 Pacific fleet and the remainder tu work out of shore bases distributed along the coasts. For the Atlantic coast he proposed the establishment of bases a NeN London Philadel- phia and Norfolk while for the Pa cific he thought stations at san Diego. San Francisco and the Co., | lumbia river would not he too far apart
 The admiral reiterated his belief that no boats Of less than 70 to 500 tons surface displacement should be built in future. The most eff cient German U-boats. he said were of that size.
 He urged also that no additional fleet submarines of the 200 ton type be built until the Schley, the first of i these has been tried out
 Representatives Roberts of Massl chusetts carried the admiral throug a long line of questions to establist his opinion of the American built boats, approXimating the navy r class. now in the British service Ad- miral Grant said the fact that thes, boats had been able to cross the Al lantic under their own power di, not influence him to change hi. mind as to the size future American submarines should he Tine task c submerging a longer boat such a. the 500 ton craft.

 Representative Stephens Of Calfor mia asked if Admiral Grant though the Pacific coast was adequately de fended
 Isn't it true that there are bu three submarines to defend the whol Pacific cOast?' he asked
 That is true" Admiral Grant sait
 How many do you think tha there should he in order to full defend it?"
 , Forty eight"
 Do you think it would be ade quately defended if the propose submarine bases were established d , far apart as san Diego and Sa | Francisco and the Columbia river?" "I do"

Good Reading for Sunday
Whispering Leaves


When autumn's flaming eolors
Appear on every hand.
IT'S a JOY to tread the winding ways
That lead to fairyland.
The forest path beneath the leaves
Now deeply buried lies.
The round red sun looks through a
From hazy autumn skies.
A erispy, snappy, singing tang
Pervades the bracing air,
And spreads %exhileration
Keen, compelling, everywhere.
But at this season of the year
There's nothing quite so good
As to hear the leaves a-rustIing
When walking through the wood
When autumn's dainty fingers
Her box of paint unfolds,
And touches all the trembling leaves
With russets, reds and Colds;
When chestnut burrs have opened
At the first white touch Of frost,
And down among the fallen leaves
Their shining treasures tossed;
When harvests all are garnered,
And resting time is here,
Though It's the saddest of the sea-
sons,
The fading of the year
Such wistful. %pensive, thoughtful
days
Still all the world seems good.
When we hear the leaves a-rustling
In wandering through the woods.
When autumn trembled at the clutch
or winters first chill blast,
The north wind whispered to the
leaves
A challenge as he passed,
And one by one they followed him,
And gaily. hand in hand,
He led them in a wild and joyous
Frolic through the land.
Then gently dropped them to their
rest,
To mother earth redeemed,
There curled up In each others arms,
They fell asleep and dreamed.
And you'll find them still a~-dreaming
OF that frolic, II you should
Listen to their whispering.
When strolling thorugh the wood.
