GERMAN Spy ACTIVITY SH0WNIN
ATTACK ON j. 5. TROOPS At SEA

WASHINGTON, July 4.-Another

United States was afforded in the fact

ports and their probable routes.
American destroyers, conveying the
transports, scored their first victory
in beating off the attacking sub
marines, and at least one Hun diver
went down with all its crew before
the shells of the American gunners.
The transports we're only four days
out when the hostile underwater ships
appeared, being sighted by the de-
stroyers. The fact that the attack
was made in waters more than half
way to America from the submarine
bases indicates that the submarine
commanders were acting under orders
to meet and destroy the American
transports, orders that could have
been sent only through the German
admiralty and only through lntorma-
ton received in Berlin OF the date

Swiss Visitor Tells of Work oil
Mercy His Country is Doing
for BeIIiqerentS

One Of the proudest OF SWitzer-
lands loyal subjects is 4. Arbenz, a
wealthy businessman Of the Federal
ed Malay States, who is making a
| lengthy visit in Honolulu at the Moa-
ma Hotel. Arbenz has not been home
10 Switzerland for six years, gets no
mail from there which Is not at least
twice censored and therefore devoid
of war news OF importance and has
not had any papers from home since
the war started, but nevertheless
keeps pretty we'll informed on affairs
and conditions there. He doesn't say
how he gets all his information about
the wonderful little country, but he
does, nevertheless
Arbenz proudly points out that
Switzerland has an army of 100000
soldiers now constantly under arms.
He shrugs his shoulders when asked
how all these soldiers are to be paid
and provided for by so small govern
ment, but declares on the other hand
that Switzerland could put 100000 in
the field If necessary.
Switzerland's great trial has been
to stay friendly with all powers. She
has probably succeeded best in this
by turning her country into a great
camp for the care and exchange OF
wounded prisoners of ali nations.
Switzerland must be pretty hard
up with all her great summer resorts

Don't you ever think they are
empty" he retorted. They are filled
to overlooking with wounded of all
nationalities And their respective
governments are paying for their
keep and glad to do 1t, too,
The visitor explains that soldiers
wounded beyond all possible chance
of return to war are sent back to their
respective countries through the me.
dunn of exchange, but soldiers who
are subject to call again are retained
by their captors.
According to Arbenz Swiss dipIo-
mats are also great believers in arbi-
tration. Although they have no navy
or sea commerce to invite the muir
derous submarines they have been
sorely harassed on many occasions
by aeropIane, and bombs have done
considerable damage

FOR
CALIFORNIA TO
SET new RECORD

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, June g
The area planted to sugar beets in Cal
ifornia for 1917 breaks all previous
records for the state by a substantial
margin Conservative unofficial esti-
mates, made on June /. place this
years beet acreage for California IN
excess Of 1S0, 900 acres, compared with
an estimated acreage planted Of 1o2'
900 acres on the same date last year.
Eighteen Per Cent Increase
These figures indicate that Califor-
MAS paintings were increased this sea-
son by approximately IL per cent, and
local beet sugar circles are confident
that unless extremely unfavoraole
growing and harvesting conditions are
met with the beet tonnage harvested
for the state will exceed loo, 900 tons
in the coming campaign and the t1nal
sugar production will approximate
275, 900 tons.
CALIFORNIA; beet crop for 1915
amounted to $4,000 tons and the
sugar produced totaled 236,o00 tons,
so that il anywhere near the 1917 est
mates are reached the states beet in
dustry will have attained this year a
record breaking and important growth.
While weather conditions this spring
throughout the state were generally
not favorable for planting, they have
not been of a seriously detrimental
nature. Some failures were reported,
and in many instances replanting had
to be resorted to :iree times, as the
sugar companies and beet growers
were determined to cultivate and har'
vest every acre possible this year.
Growing Conditions Favorable
Growing conditions since planting
time have been more favorable and the
crop generally througout the state Is
in good condition. In many localities
the beets are farther advanced than
they were last year.
All of the California sugar compa-
MES are straining every effort to make
this years crop record crop in ton
mage harvested by urging beet grow
ers to observe careful cultural meth
DDS as the crop progresses and assist
ing them in every way possible to at
tain a maximum production per acre.
