.arshals Urge War
On Alien Firebugs
[Stdf Correspondence1

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 16.-Rssolu-
tions calling upon the Federal govern
meDt TO bestow greater powers upon
the Council Of National Defence to en-
force more efficient fire protection and
more effective Waterman service, with
armed guards If necessary, were adopt
ed by the convention Of the Fire Mar
shals' Association of North America at
its closing session here this evening.
The resolutions represent the judg-
ment of the fire marshals as to the
most effective means of meeting the
alien arson danger which threatens the
nation. Each state, and for that mat
ter every American agency having TO
do with fire prevention, is bending
every efoTt toward protection against
the enemy firebugs. But the state off
Gals felt the effort must be organized
and managed from some central au-
thority. and that the Council of Ma
tional Defence was the proper body.
Revolution of the Waterman service
throughout America is essential, the
convention felt after listening to the
address of w. E. Mallalieu, Of the Ma
tional Board Of Fire Underwriters. and
others. The voluntary work must be
backed up by government comNand
and the inspection must cover the en-
tire nation.
Colonel James r. Young. of Raleigh,
Y. c., Insurance Commissioner and ex-
officio Fire Marshal of North Carolina,
was elected president of the associa-
tion for the ensuing year; W. VI. Camp
bell. Fire Marshal of Louisiana. who
served as secretary-treasurer in the
last years. was elected vice-president;
John G. Gambler, Fire Marshal of Illi-
nois, secretary. and retiring President
L. T. Hussey. Fire Marshal of Kansas,
and f. P. Heaton, of Ontario, Fire
Marshal of Ontario. were elected men,
bers of the executive committee.

U-Boat Menace Not Ended.
Sir Eric Geddes Warns
Decreasing Toll of Merchant Ships Does Not In.
dcate Submarine Is Beaten, He Declares-New
Tonnage Net Yet Keeping Pace With Destruction

LONDON, Nov. 16.-ln reply to q
.,sstion IN the House of Commons to-
S.v Sir Eric Geddes, First Lord of the
admiralty, said:
~The good return of tonnage sinking
By enemy submarines last week and,
indeed. the comparatively favorable re-
suit Of the last two months. ought not
20 be taken as indicating that the sub
marine menace is a thing of the past
or defeated"
Sir Eric recalled his recent speech
in the House of Commons, IN which he
said the enemy's attack on British
trade was being held but had not been
defeated, that the Germans were build
Ing submarines faster than the British
we're destroying them, but that with
improved methods ne looked for the
eventual defeat Of this menace. He
also reminded his hearers ne had said

tons Of submarines.

means "the building of ships faster
than the U-boats can destroy them"
Germany at the beginning Of the war
had no idea of attempting to win
through the undersea weapon, accord
ing to Marley r. Hay, a submarine
builder in Scotland.
Prior TO the war, Mr. Hay said, Ger
many considered the U-boats a defen-
sive weapon-a protector OF harbors,
not a craft to fare forth TO wage war
and il was only after England bottled
up the Teutonic feet that the Germans
began to develop the U-boat for its
present purposes.
The Navy Department refused to per-
nit Assistant Naval Constructor Car
michael to read his paper on Labor
AID Patriotism" However, he sharply
criticised labor for lack Of coopers-
Human Element to Blame
The human element is in the main
responsible for the decline of the l.
boat menace, according 20 Robert Mac
Gregor, general manager of the Fed
eral Shipbuilding Corporation. He said
yesterday he was convinced that few
German submarines were now at sea
because it was becoming more and more
difficult to get crews 10 man them.
II is his belief that this is not only
due to failing man-power, but TO the
fact that Allied preventive measures
have become so effective that men Of
the required courage and physique re-
fuse to face the terrors and ordeals OF
the submarine service.
Mr.. MacGregor's view is borne out
by recent dispatch from Zurich,
Switzerland, concerning the mutinies
of German sailors:
"The reports Of mutinies during the
first days of August on three German
vessels at Kiel and Wilhelmshafen,"
this says, have been confirmed recently
by Karl Radek, the representative of
the Swiss Socialists at the Stockholm
conference, who has just returned from
Stockholm, after a brief stay in Ger
many. In an interview with the Swiss
'Volkrecht,' Socialist organ, he de-
clared that the mutinies in the German
navy assumed serious proportions.
an Kiel 100 ringleaders of the mu-
tineers were arrested. In Wilhelms-
hafen the government ordered the ship
on which the crew had mutinied
brought outside the harbor, in fear lest
the rebels receive assistance from the
shore. On September 5 a sailor named
Relchnitz, who had been condemned TO
death by the War Council, was exc
cuted by a squad Of his own comrades.
Other sailors had been sentenced to
many years of forced labor"

Mr.. Williams said that he would not
reveal the mans identity until the case
against him was thoroughly investi-
gated. He said the accused merchant
received with good grace his announce
ment that the food administration was
sending a man TO check up the books.
The growing temptation of specula-
tion in sugar was indicated yesterday
by the statements of New York re-
finers. and the Official figures of sugar
receipts in Willett & Gray's Sugar
Trade Journal" In addition. the Amer
can Sugar Refining Company's officials
announced that there was practically
no hope OF getting more than $1,000
tons OF the raw product from this
years Louisiana cane crop.
The American company had bid for
100000 tons. and through the active in
tercession of Chief George NJ Rolph
of the National Food Administrators
sugar division, this amount had prac-
tically been assured. But the LodisianS
planters held out for higher prices

Roads Move More Coal

At the conferences or councils OF
Chicago. A NJ Schoyer. vice-presi-
dent OF the Pennsy lvania lines. states
that from Jan. / TO Aug | the rail
roads transported more coal than In
the same period OF any previous year.
Taking all classes OF traffic. the rail
roads rendered 20 per cent more
freight service last June than In the
same month Of last year. although
there was an increase In cars OF only
? per cent and In locomotives OF less
than one-half OF l per cent They
were able 10 do this because they In
creased by - per cent the amount
~ traffic handled by each freight car.
Railway managers attribute this In
crease In car efficiency to better op-
Grafton of the roads themselves and
10 patriotic cooperation which the
| railways are receiving from shippers
in loading cars heavier and loading
and unloading them more promptly.
w. NJ. LETTERS, yice-presldent and
general manager of the Union Pact
fic Railroad has handled 1913 more
cars Of coal since January |. than It
handled during the same time last
year, an increse or nearly 20 per cent.
This means an increase In coal ton
mage. available for consumption. OF
fSO.s5O tons. At 8 tons to the fam
lily this increase alone would supply
the winters stock for 61,356 famil-
les. In July alone. we handled L.
SAB more cars of coal than In July
last year.
