BUILT FINE HOME
ON AIMS WHICH
Wife SOLICITED
Charities Organization So
ciety Discovers Brazen
Case Near City Line.

A man never working for the sup
port of his family but able to build
to the roof a fine house for himself
in an adjoining town through the ap-
peaIs for aid by his wife to wealthy
people in Bridgeport, is the startling
discovery made this week by the Char
tiles Organization Society of Bridge
port.
Secretary Leet B. Meyers of the G.
o. s. today admitted these facts to be
correct, stating that for constructive
reasons and the fact that authorities
of an adjoining town are engaged in
inquiry disclosure of the name of the
individual is impossible.
This man" said Mr.. Meyers, has
lived probably upon kind hearted
Bridgeporters for several years with
out doing a stroke of work. In addi-
ton, he has been able to support a
wife and family of Two girls through
his wife's solicitations, until the girls,
ashamed of their means of sustenance,
left their home.
1.-THE wife was daily sent to Bridge
port where she collected, only from
the wealthy, upon the plea that her
husband could not work owing to
heart failure and tuberculosis.

whom came rumors Of a house being
built near the Bridgeport line by the
family caused investigation by the
Charities Organization Society. The
man is rugged, we'll appearing man,
who admits he is not sickly and since
has promised to go to work. if prose-

KEEL UNIVERSITY EXPERT ON
INTERNATIONAL LAW DECLARES
SUBMARINE WARFARE is LEGAL

with the following foreword:
Ever since North American diplo-
macy has sought to impair the glo--
ious deeds of our submarines by their
notes and to harm them by interna-
tona1 complications, the anxiety that
"a strategic advantage will be torn
from our hands without opposition
has hung over the German people
like a black cloud. We hope how
ever that our submarines will not
be offered up on the altar of waste
through halfway submarine comman-
ders and crews, with the assurance
that the German people without ex-l
ception stands behind them, filled
with admiration and gratitude, so long
as a drop of blood still flows, so long
as a hand draws the sword"
- The writer earnestly disputes the
contention that international law has
been smashed to bits in the present.
war; He maintains rather that it is,
slangi1y expressed, bent but not brok-l
en-. There has not been as large q.
proportion of offenses against it, he
saySSas against criminal law the
world over.
After presenting many reasons why
the submarine might be considered
unamenable to existing law because
it is new, he declares that this view
after all is untenable and insists that
the U-boat will have to continue to-
operate under present statutes UNTIL

He complains on the one hand that
international law as it now stands isl
full of holes" and too elastic butt
finds in these very facts justification
for many of the acts of submarines
In support of his contention he quotes
many phrases which he terms vague,
and which, he says, are construed int
one way by America, in another byI

AMERICA SELLS $500, 100000
WORTH IN GOODS ANNUALLY TO
FRENCH; NEW LOAN PROPOSED
War Costs French Half Billion Dollars Month Accord
ing to Estimate of Statesman Who Discusses For The
Associated Press Developments of the World Con
flict.

Paris, Jan. 28-''You Americans
are selling us immense quantities of
suppHes-some good, some inferior
at nigh war prices, but you do it hon
estly; you tell US what you're going
to deliver" said Monsieur E. Almond,
head of the Senate Finance Commit
tee, reviewing the present condition
of exchange for The Associated Press.
I'VE are buying perhaps more than
$500, 100000 worth of goods a year
and satins, we are selling you little
of anything" he added. '"That ire
mendous balance of trade, with the
war still going on, explains why the
$3.50, 100000 you loaned US was in
sufficient to equaIze exchange.
1.-THE balance of trade was always
in your favor, but you, yourselves,
maintained the parity or the franc by
spending your dollars in travel
through France.
- "a billion francs-two hundred mil
lion do1lars-is what we are losing
annually since Americans are spend
ing at home the money they for
merly spent here, making a difference
against US of something like four bill
lion francs, which, of course, a, bill
lion and quarter loan cannot Off
set.
Exchange between London and
New York is easier because English
investors hold American securities to
a, far greater amount than we. The
payments of interest and dividends on
those investments relieves the situa-
ton. If France had placed in Amer
lea the fifteen billion francs she has
loaned Russia, the interest payments
would go far to equaHze exchange.
Exchange between Berlin and New
York suffers from different causes.
The franc is at a discount in New
York because the money is contfn-
ually going that way. Germany has
no>big payments to make; she is I'M
able to assure transatlantic transpor-
tation and can buy in. only limited
quantities of her adjoining neutral
neighbSrs. She produces her own
steel, coal and chemical products,
while we must buy them in Amert-
ca. With US the depreciation may
be considered a material and acciden-
tai Circumstance. After the war, or
as soon as we have bought all the
steel and. other war supplies we need
from you. the franc will go back to
par.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-01-28

''The war is now costing US two and
a half billion francs $500, 0O0,0OO) a
month, of which one billion 500 mill
lion francs are spent in France said
Monsieur Almond, leading up to the
question of Frances financial require
ments.
cat that rate we shall have to is
sue another loan in the near future.
The six and a half billion francs
in cash produced by the loan issued
month of April. BY that time nearly
five billion francs of the money dis
tributed throughout the country will
be available for another loan that
will be floated under far more ia
vorab1e conditions. The Sa4oniki sit
uation, which was acute at the time
of our five per cent loan, unquestion-
ably frightened big capital. This is
well known in financial circles and
is borne out by many facts connected
with the loan. For instance, the
number of subscribers was greater in
proportion to the total amount sub
scribed than of any government loan
issued in France.
Three and a half million subscribe
ers took fourteen and a, half billions
600 francs each. The average of for
mer loans was from 10000 to 10000
frncs each. This proves that it was
largely the small capitalist, the little
tradesmen, the humble classes with
small savings that took up the loan.
Another loan, issued under circum-
stances becoming every day more ia
vorable to France, will produce a
greater cash total, as I estimate that
there is at the present time Ii IL
billion francs in circulation in France.
Deducting the g IL billions in cash
subscribed to recent loans, there are
1-2 billions unsubscribed to add to
a considerable portion of the 1-2
billions that will be in circulation
again before a new loan is issued.
French loans are subscribed by
the people; that fact should be borne
in mind in comparing it's issues. with
those Of other governments. In Eng
land, Germany and Italy it is bank
ing affair in which the big capital is
Immediately interested. Our loan was
a great success under the cireum-
stances since it brought out scarcely
anything more than the small saw
ings. The next one will reach the
big investors"

Hopes Submarines Will
Not Be offered Up On
Altar of Waste Through
Halfway Measures to Suit
Foreigners"

Berlin, Jan. 28-In answer to
American criticism of submarine
warfare aroused by the Lusitania and
Ancona, cases, Prof. Theodor ME-
meyer, international law expert at the
University of Kiel, has issued a bro
chure entitled The Legal Basis of
Submarine Wary In it, he gives his
reasons for believing not only that
such warfare is justified but that pas
senger vessels may be torpedoed as
the Lusitanias and Ancona were with
out any infraction of existing inter
national law.
Submarine warfare per Sc, he ar
CUES, is allowable because it is not
forbidden. Various restrictions pIac-
ed upon naval warfare in general by
International conventions, he declares,
are null and void because not ratified
by all of the present combatants. The
command of necessity he urges is
another reason for the submarine. 1T
has 1.-The right and duty to do every
thing that serves the wars purpose
He quotes Article 40 of the London
Declaration to show that neutral
prizes may be destroyed if the attack
er is in danger. but that no such con-
dition is imposed in regard to enemy
vessels. The Inference therefore to
be drawn is that the attacker needs
no such pretense or excuse as danger
to justify him in sinking his oppon-
ept's ships.
LAS regards the rights of passengers,
rthe writer declares that they are not
touched upon in any international
agreement until the London Declare
ton, which in Article SO says: 'tAvant
Ia destruction COT the ship les per-
sonnes qui Sc trouvent a, bord devront
etre misses en- surete.'' (Before the de-
struction of the ship the persons who
are on board shall Cor must) be re-
moved to safety.)
On the word "devront," Prof. Me
meyer lays the greatest stress of his
argument. He declares that the
French have but the one word, 'fde-
voir'' to cover both must and shall.
He elects to translate -devront as
shall, maintaining that if must had
been meant the form "doivent'' would
have been used.
On the assumption, therefore, that
Article SO was intended to read that
passengers shall be placed in safety,
he is of the opinion that the words,
eff it is possible are to be inter
polated or read into the paragraph.
With the article in this revised form,
as he is morally convinced it should
be. he finds every phase of submarine
warfare justifiable.

F-irstHNve will be unable to furnish
steel under both physical and chemi-

that nnanufacturers of steel in the

sponsibility under one of these re-
,quirements. Our quotations are
: based on furnishing steel as per ply
steal requirements only. as this, in our
opinion is the most essential.
Second-Shrapne1 cases: The steel
already ordered will not be suitable

that it is greater in length and diam

dftional cost covering material, labor,
tools, etc, will be so cents per case,
This does not include diaphragm or
