Certainly Clark c. Fits would make
an excellent man to send to the Chicago
convention; but his friends say he is too
busy man to send out there-his pri-
vate business requiring all of his time.
Well, it is just that sort of men that the
state and party needs for this important
work and if he could be prevailed upon
to represent us he should be named. He
would add strength and dignity to the
delegation.

The German note which was dispatch
ed to this country in reply. to President
Wilson's ultimatum is variously regarded
by those who study it. Certainly it does
not fully meet the demands made by the
President. This much. we think, will be
generally conceded. but it does make
concessions which in effect complies con-
ditionally with the Presidents demands.

The Burlington Clipper headquarters

grudge against O. S. Nichols of Essex
Junction to protest against his selection
as one of the Senators from Chitten-
den county. We do not know what
the scrap is about, but we do know that
Mr.. Nichols is mighty strong man, was a
good Representative and is we'll fitted for
the upper house. The Clipper should not
let personal animosities interfere
with the selection of a good man. 1t
may be. however, the Clipper has other
than personal grounds for its protest
against Mr.. Nichols.

U-Boat Deutschland Is
Seen Far on Her Journey

Philadelphia, Aug. 1.-THE German
merchant submarine Deutschland.
which sailed from Baltimore for Bre-
men, was sighted last Sunday night
by the Norwegian steamship Meteor.
which arrived here yesterday from Lon
don, when she was off the Grand
Banks.
Captain johnson, of the Meteor. saw
a submarine, and he believed it was the
Deutschland. as the vessel was bound
east. With a general cargo the Meteor
was in the regular steamship lanes
making for Philadelphia. About Il
o'clock that night Captain johnson
sighted a submarine. 1t was too dark
to make out her name. The sub
mersible circled around the Norwegian
steamship and then resumed her east
! ward course.
On his last trip out from Baltimore
bound for England Captain johnson
countered the Deutschland going into
Baltimore. From what he saw of the
vessel then makes him believe that it
was the Deutschland he sighted off the
Grand Banks. This is the first report
of any vessel sighting the submersible
since she left Baltimore.

PRINT CRISIS
EXPECTED in OCT.
Federal Trade Board Fears Big
Shortage When Contracts
Are Renewed

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE crisis in
the news print paper situation. which
Already has cut down newspaper
Profits enormously, will not be reached
till late in October, when contracts
come up for renewal, according to re-
ports received from many sources by
the federal trade commission.
The presidential election, together
with the European war, is expected tG
increase an already unparalleled de-
tell the trade commission, they Will
hardly be able to meet. This year.
for the first time, they have not been
able to lay up large reserve during
the summer.
The trade commissions report on
its investigation of news print prices
it was announced to-day, will be pub
lished not later than October l, re-
gardless of whether Congress still is
in session. Probably a brief extract
will be given out two weeks before
hand summarizing the findings.
The great question in deciding
whether there has been collusion
among the manufacturers to boost
prices unduly is said to be whether
the increased demand for paper has
been entirely disproportionate to the
increased production.
assert lHdI puDlloi
ers are using 20 per cent. more paper
than ever before. Consumption fig
ures presented to the commission,
however, vary widely
G. F. Steele, secretary of the News
Print Manufacturers Association, has
estimated that figures for June show
'the largest daily production of news
print ever recorded" Shipments, he
declared, represented 80 per cent of
this production.
None of the substitutes for pulp re-
Gently suggested is commercially fea-
sible, according to officials of the var
ious bureaus interested. Cotton
stalks, most frequently mentioned,
would be prohibitively expensive to
collect, they say. The same situation
holds for corn stalks, broom corn, rice
straw and flax
AS yet the experiments have not
passed the laboratory stage, and, so
far as is known, no commercial use
of the discoveries is contemplated any
where.
