 'tSo far as concerns France and the United States, want to see the busi- ness men of the two nations get to- gether now and talk business and do business in a big way.

motor will be a standardized motor. If necessary, parts exactly alike can be turned out in quantity in one fac tory and shipped to a different place to be assembled. As the work devel- ops our engineers can be engaged constantly in further developing the motor, and as the industry expands in quantity it can also improve the quality of it's output.
 "A large percentage of the first machines of course will be training planes, both because we need them and because it will take time to turn out the tools and dies necessary to manufacture in quantity the battle plane models which nearly three years of war have developed. Four to six months, however, will find us building in quantity motors servicea- ble for battle machines.
 We have no intention at the be- ginning to attempt the manufacture of the very speediest, highly special ized, light fiers which-the Allies are now turning out. We can produce in vast quantities the training planes and the heavier and less speedy bat tie types, which are just as essential and which will leave the British aLae French free to turn more of their aS- tention to the development of the fastest types"

The Admiralty statement of ships sunk shows the third highest total in larger British ships sunk since ruthless submarine warfare began. This week appears to indicate the crest of one of the waves in which the U-boat campaign seems to beat upon England.
 Though all told 32 British ships were sunk--the high total of 27 of them being over 1900 tons-the sit uation is not regarded too pessimisti- cally by naval men. who insist that the Admiralty's methods of fighting submarines are growing in efficiency Also the last week includes one day which Is regarded as setting a rec ord for the number Of vessels list The Admiralty statement on the sub marine operations for the week shows:
 Arrivals, 2,ss7; sai1ings, 2,993.
 British merchant ships over 1,60t tons sunk by mine or submarine, in cluding three previously, 27; under 1900 tons, including one previously five.
 British merchant ships unsuccess- fully attacked, including two pre-, yious1y, 32.
 l British fishing vessels sunk. none Admiralty officials say the Germans are trying every possible method ot 1 circumventing the allied patrols ane conveys and that the submarines ire. I auently change the principal scene | of their operations.

lions against the quarantine re-
strictions placed on this port by
United States health officers, be-
cause Of the presence Of Typhus

Chef Of Police Torres said there
were five Villa partisans known to
have been in the mob yesterday and
they would be arrested as traitors if
they appeared today. He also said
eight American gamblers were in
Jail in JuareZ on minor charges not
connected with the riots.
Brigadier General George Bell,
Jr., said last night that he would
leave the situation to the local po-
lice officers until request was
made for the assistance Of his
troops. He said, however, his bridge
guards would assist in enforcing the
quarantine.
