Chicago Harry Pratt Iudson. au thority on international law, and president of the University of Chica go. declared that the sinking of the Chy of Memphis was the strongest kind of an overt act. He said:
 Aside from the itemized facts there are only two situations to be considered in this case;
 First. if the ship was sunk with out search Such action without dc. bate constitutes an overt act. tlas rant violation of international law
 Second. if the ship Wa first searched and then sunk The facts in the case state that the ship was on the voyage over was stopped, search cd and permitted 10 proceed It's status was thus already clearly es- tabIished by Germany. If on the re- turn voyage the ship had been search ed before it's sinking. the log would have necessarily proved it's right on Germany own judgment to proceed unmolestcd Then in this case. too, the sinking was an overt act equal ly a violation of the law,
 It would seem however, without any debate whatever. that the sinking of an American ship flying the Amer icar flag and bound with cargo for an American port searched or not searched. warned or not warned was irrefutably d violation of internatioh al law.
 Tho circumstances are unique. But whatever they are finally established to he tho facts as they stand seem to allow Tor no escape from the eon- clusion that Germany has committed an overt act"

powder bags are driven home, a man at

Outside, it is much different. There

FIFTEEN seconds from Commence fir

They have new guns crews in training
now who never saw salt water until
three weeks ago who are doing the

Some nights the ships of the fleet
cruise in waters nearby for night bat

anchored in the base waters, where
crews are drilled at torpedo defense.
The guns are manned and dummy tor
pedoes and submarines are picked up
by the searchlights and theoretically
destroyed.
The fleet has gained efficiency in
torpedo defense. They tell story in
the ward rooms of an American sub

anchorage without giving notice. The
fleet is dark after certain hour at

is intensely alert.
