TO a more permanent prosperity. The
pressure to place new orders and 10

The general business outlook is sat-

change.

ernoou that they had passed her at that
point. The press boat then took a posi-
ton near the dividing point of the Old
Point and Cape Henry channels and
awaited the coming of the undersea
vessel.
Shortly before 6 o'clock the first sight
Of the craft was obtained. Apparently
she was about five miles away and was
low in the water, only her coming tower
showing. The Timmins was a short dis
lance behind her and they were rum
ming about seven miles an hour.
When near the entrance Of Bobjack
bay the Deutschland sighted the press
boat and Immediately reversed herself
and appeared to be making for the bay.
After running for about two miles she
again head south until she was abreast
the Timmins and then both vessels put
on full steam ahead toward the press
boat. Suddenly they turned off as II to
20 down the Old Point channel, but
when the dispatch boat made for the
same channel they again changed their
course and headed directly for Cape
Henry.
AS the Deutschland came on it was
apparent that she was carrying false
superstructure, slightly lower than her
coming tower 1t was straw-colored
and blended with the oilskin coats worn
by her crew who crowded the deck. When
about a mile from the press boat the
submersible began to clear away the
false superstructure and taking sound
ings as IL preparing to dive The Tim
minis moved ahead of the undersea liner
and signaled that she intended to pass
on the starboard side. Immediately both
vessels increased their speed and put
over the starboard.
fha TimFnina CANA al0n0Sfda the
press boat at a distance of perhaps leo
feet and with the Deutschland moving
slowly close to her starboard side, Cap
tain Hinsch, Of the German warbound
steamer Neckar, who had charge Of the
clearing of the Deutschland, shouted
through a megaphone, Who's that?"
Upon being advised that 1t was a news
paper boat, he shouted the information
to the Deutschland and then both vessels
moved rapidly.
Sailors on the Deutschland paid no
attention to salutes from the newspaper
boat. They EaEed at her silently for a
while and then began putting on their
blue uniform coats.
The Deutschland was displaying red
and green lights set flush on the two
sides of her coming tower. AS she
passed the newspaper boat she put out
these lights.
The Timmins then moved over to the
port side of the channel about $50 feet
from the Deutschland and they contin-
Ted in these relative positions for a con-
siderable distance down the bay.
BY this time the sun was setting,
casting a mellow glow over the water
in which the Deutschland, resplendcnt
in her new trimmings Of green and gray
raint stood out clearly. Within a few
minutes after the sun had set clouds

WALSH SCORES NAMING
OF JUDGE As CANDIDATE
Senator Says Hughes Was
Named to Save Party,
Not the Country
(By Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Ir a speech
today on the Thomas constitutional
amendment to make federal judges in
eligible 10 any elective office, Senator
Walsh, Democrat, declared that former
Justice Hughes was nominated for the
presidency by the Republicans ito save
his party, not to save the country" and
charged tEat no more deadly blow ever
had been aimed at the federal judicial
system.
Senator Walsh said 1t was appropriate
to defer action on the proposed amend
rsent until a ca!mer time, and that the
election in November would serve as a
referendum on the principles involved.
II Mr.. Hughes were defeated, he said, no
political party would be likely to have
the hardihood again to name as it's can
didate for president a member of the
supreme court; while if he were elected
the Republican party could not stultify
itself by submitting or consenting to
the amendment.
"A departure from the salutary rule
in consequence of which no justice of
the supreme court has ever until now be-
come the candidate for any party for
the Office of president" said Senator
crisis involving the rational life, or
when possibly the state of public morals
should become so corrupt that, as a
! brilliant writer puts 1t, a Papinian or an
Ulpian at the helm of state may be the
only choice as against Nero or a
Caracalla.
What condition calls for a disregard
of 1t in the present exigency? What
radical change is demanded in order to
preserve the country or it's institutions
from impending collapse or ruthless de-
struction? From what quarter is our
independence threatened?"
Senator Walsh said that 1t was only
just to assume that Justice Hughes
nomination came to him unsought and
that he had no hand in the well-ordered
pre-convention campaign conducted in
his behalf" but that his success in the
election would excite hopes in the breast
of men less rigidly scrupulous and it
would, as a practical matter, be impossi-
BILE to differentiate between the man who
had remained discreetly but expectantly
silent and the man who had actively con-
nived at efforts to secure his nominal
ton"
Mr.. Townsend, of Michigan, spoke in
reply 1T is a compliment to Mr..
Hughes that no one has raised any other
issue against him." he said He has
never pandered to classes or to public
sentiment, but has adhered to his duty
as he saw it. He was chosen to lead his
party against the opposition of the sa-
called politicians. He accepted because
he believed the people called him and be-
cause he believed a national emergency
does exist and has existed for two years
and half"

he favored an amendment to the fed
eral constitution giving the vote to
women.
A delegation of suffragists saw the
president yesterday, and afterward indi-
Gated they believed he would make
new statement on the question before
the convention of the National Amer
lean Woman Suffrage association in
September. At that time the policy to
be pursued in the presidential campaign
will be determined by the national suf-
frage organization.
Today Secretary Tumulty discussed
the question with the president and
afterward announced that Mr.. Wilson's
position on the subject was unchanged.
This position, as outlined several tipoaE
to suffragist delegations within the last
three years, is that, while he favors
votes for women, he is opposed to fed
eral action.
The president voted for woman's suf-
frage in New Jersey last year.
1t was indicated that today's an
