LACK OF RANGE FINDERS
FOR U. S. SHIPS REVEALED
Development In Seaman's Testimony
at Senate Gun Accident Hearing
Causes a Stir.

The fact that some Of the first Ameri-
can merchantmen to be armed sailed
for the war zone without waiting for
range finders to be put aboard was
developed in testimony yesterday in the
Senate naval committees investigation
of gun accidents.
Chief Gunner Bohan Of the freighter
Virginia, which had a brush with a
submarine when returning recently
from Europe, testified that he believed
failure to hit the U-boat was due to
lack of q range finder. The statement
caused a stir in the committee until
Rear Admiral Earle. chief of ordnance,
who was present, took the stand and
explained that the range finders had
been behind in delivery and that be-
cause Of the large number of vessels
which were armed 1t had not been pos
sible to supply all Of them. Some yes
sells, he said, were SO anxious to sail
that they decided not to wait.
John B. Sample, inventor of the fuse
and fuse-chaser used by the navy, told
the committee yesterday that the gov
ernment's specifications were high and
the inspections and tests rigid. De-
fective fuses probably cost the Ger
mans the big North sea fight. Admiral
Earle said, Judging from the large

U. S. WOULD FIX PAY
OF CAPTURED OFFICERS
Makes oher to Germany to Garry
Out Hague Con-
ventiou.

The United States has proposed to
Germany through the Spanish govern
ment that each country agree to grant
TO military and naval off1cers of the
other country who may be taken pris-
oners OF war the same rate Of pay as
omcers OF corresponding rank in the
capturing forces received
The second Hague convention proyides
tnat omcers taken prisoners shall re-
ceiVe the same rate Of pay as officers
OF corresponding rank in the country
wnere they are detained, the amount to
be ultimately refunded by their own
government" Both the United States
eha Germany are signatories OF this
erucie, put there is great question IL
in force.
The German sailors taken from the
informed German war vessels in this
country are to be paid at the rate Of
american seamen in accord with the
original plan announced by the Navy
Department. 1t is uncertain what the
pay OF omcers will be.
Tho big difference In pay between
American and German officers will
PROBABLY be matter Of adjustment.
e. u German officers captured by this
country are paid at the American scale,

Iuno much more than they pay Their

CONGRESS URGED TO ACT
IN PRINT PAPER CRISIS
Federal Trade Commission Predicts
Panic in Prices Unless Gov
eminent Steps In.

The federal trade commission, an
bouncing failure of It's plan to relieve
the news print paper situation and pre-
oictlng panic prices unless the govern
authorize a government pooling scheme
70 insure both an equitable distribution
OF the product to consumers and a fair
profit to manufacturers.
Cnder the new plan all producing
plants would be operated on govern
ment account and a federal agency
would be created to set a fair price and
effect fair distribution. The Canadian
government would be asked to create
2 similar agency to act jointly with Of
ncials in this country in distributing
the big Canadian output. If such q
canadian agency were not created, all
importations into the United States
sion.
Tho recommendation is the outcome
Of months Of Investigation by the COM
mission. which undertook the inquiry
IN response to Senate resolution. The
distribution plan worked out to restore
competition and give relief from high
prices failed, the report says, because
there was no authority to enforce its
terms. and tho manufacturers did not
abide by 1t. Only legislation along the
lines recommended can now avert a Sc
rious rise In prices, 1t is declared, the
prospect being that the 1917 output will
cost consumers $105, 100000 instead of
stO.UOo,VuO, as last year, with half the
increase representing additional manu-
facturers' profits.
The commission hopes for action on
its recommendations at this session of
Congress, as 1t regards the situation
facing publishers as a war emergency
requiring speedy relief measures.
The commission also submitted to the
Senate a report on book paper. which
showed that book paper manufacturers
have made enormous profits within the
last year. The commission. the report
announces. Is considering instituting
proceedings against certain practices
which exist in the industry. Book paper
prices, the report shows. rose in 1915 as
high as 81 per cent above the prices OBJ
tanning the year before.

NO CANADIAN PAPER ACTION.
o. s. Suggestion for Agency Dis
tribution Awaits Ottawa Report.

OTTAWA, Ontario, June 14.-It Is
believed improbable that. pending the
report Of Commissioner Pringle on the
there will be any action on the sug-
gestion Of the United States federal
trade commission that Canada should
establish government agency for the
distribution of paper and control of
prices to publishers. The matter has
not yet come to the attention of the
government officially.
A high authority here states that a
Canadian pool is already in practical
existence. Manufacturers who are sup
plying the bulk of the Canadian trade
at the fixed price of $3.50 are COM
pensated by the other manufacturers
for tho difference between that price
and the three-dollar-and- a-quarter fig
ure at which the latter are selling
elsewhere.

Hiah Speed AsropIanss.

An aviation expert, writing In a Brit
,ish newspaper, dwells on the enormous
speed made by the latest flying models.
He says that it may be stated that
aeroplanes. capable Of speed Of nearly
$50 miles per hour in calm air are in
existence. It is likely, too, that. GER
tain machines Of =. heavy loading
(Which is not the same thing as grent
total weight and small head resistance
in a steep dive attain speed of $50
miles per hour. Certain dangers are
encountered by very high speed ma
chimes. The dangers We're anticipated
years ago, and to some extent, at any
rate, they are provided for in building.
These fast craft have their own degree
and problems of instability, and they
are no whit easier to fly or safer than
slow craft. A diving speed Of some
thing more than 200 miles per hour
having been attained, it seems likely
that an entirely new phase Is entered
upon, requiring very careful considera-
ton.

! Dan, who heard this dialogue, was
trying to keep from laughing and was
now obliged to swing his chair to face
the window, presenting his back to the
inquirer. The supposed bride, seeing
a number Of persons who sat near her

The girl turned to Dan as much as
to say, "Help me out of this" -
II regret" he said CALAMITY, "to con-
firm the young lady's statement"
a dozen persons sitting near laughed
outright.
Dan, lost his equanimity, making
matters worse. "I'll bet any one here"
he said, that I'm a single man and
that never saw this young lady be-
fore today"
He drew forth a fat pocketbook and
began to count out ten dollar bills.
Not person interested but thought he
was a bridegroom determined to stave
off being recognized as such. They
laughed all the louder. 1t was very
amusing Dan looked at tho girl, and
the girl looked at Dan. He tipped the
wink and said to the others:
II suppose Wen have to own up.
Now for wedding present"
Taking off his hat, he passed through
the car receiving contributions. By
this time so many persons had become
interested in what was going on that a
goodly sum was collected, which Dan
poured into the girls lap.
"If you don't want it," he said, "give
1t to charity"
"IIl give it to charity" was the
sharp reply.
a few minutes later Dams station
was called. and, saying goodby to his
bride. he got out Of the car, leaving her
to pursue her journey alone.
Then the contributors laughed again,
but different laugh from before.

Food and Intellect.

1t used to be thought that fasting
purified the spirit and made the in
tellect clearer. The mind with wings
unclogged by the gross appetites Of the
body was supposed to be more free
and nimble. The British Medical Jour-
nal does not believe that the intellect
is strengthened by fasting, though un-
doubtedly it may be clouded by over
eating. On the other hand, fasting
has often Ill effects on the temper,
which undo whatever spiritual good it
may dc in other ways. And as re-
CARDS the intellect, it is truism that
the brain must be fed like any other
part of the body. The quantity Of
food required to keep one in sound con-
dition varies so largely that 1t Is I'm
possible to lay down more than tenta-
tive average standard. The duality is
a matter of custom and environment.
Here, too, no right universal rule can
be enforced.

way to fear, anxiety, temper, depres-
sion, temperament, this is the surest
way Of inviting indigestion, constipa-
ton, finally autointoxication. And the
result on the appearance? Lusterless
eyes, sallow or blotchy skin, lifeless
hair, lack of "spring" In the carriage
these are but few Of the things that
must inevitably come to the highly

structive to beauty, nervousness, II not
treated, may develop into something a

SPARKLING Eyer.

If you should watch very closely the
eyes Of a merry person when you see
them sparkle you would probably no
tice that the eyelids move up and down
more often under such conditions than
ordinarily, and If you know what NOV
ing the eyelids up and down in front
of the pupil Of the eye does you will
have your answer, says the Book Of
Wonders. 49,.
Every time the eyelid comes down 1t
releases little tear, which spreads
over the cyeball and washes it clean
and bright. 1t does this every time the
eyelid comes down, Now, there Is
something about being merry which has
the effect Of making the eyelids dance
up and down, and thus every time the
lid comes down the ball Of the eye Is
washed clean and bright and gives 1t
the appearance Of sparkling, as we say.
