HOPE TO DRAW
NET TIGHTER
AROUND SUBS
Younger U. S. Naval Of
6cers See Chance IN
Allied Conference.

Ahe report by Admiral Benson in
dicating the makeup and duties OF
the inter-allied naval conference has
revived the hope in the hearts of
many Of the younger American naval
officers that the conference will re-
suit in more aggressive naval pol
icy against the submarine. Thought
of an attack in force on Helgoland
and Kiel has been generally aban-
doned. There is much opinion here,
however, in favor of drawing the
antf-submarine Gordon tighter about
the U-boat bases at Kiel and on
the Flanders Coast.
It Is understood here that French
naval opinion has been largely of
the same tone as that OF the younger
American officers. British opinion and
the prevalent opinion in our own
naval department since the Dardan-
elles fiasco has been controlling
against these in-shore operations.
The junction of the American with
the French advocates of aggression
afioat is now looked to as possibly
effective in moving the British from
their position.
Mine Sweepers Essential
The rapid increase in the Amer
ican destroyer fiotilla will, it is ar
gued. provide forces for these op-
erations that must otherwise be en-
ployed in patrol work at sea. The
recent success of the allied aviators
in bombing the docks at Brugge and
the development of the monitors in
the Adriatic fighting are also counted
on as factors making aggression
against the submarine bases more
effective.
Mine sweepers, naval officers ad-
init, are essential to the success of
any operations against the Flanders
Coast. With the increase of the de-
stroyer ffOtilla. many yachts and
other suitable craft now employed
in patrol work might be better used
TO sweep mines or tow nets 1t is
the argument Of the advocates of
this close Gordon about the subma-
rine bases that the U-bOats can thus
entirely be prevented from getting
70 sea instead OF getting to sea and
EOmpelling the allied fleets to pur-
sue them all over the North Allan

COLLEGE SUFFRAGE
LEAGUE DISSOLVES
Its Work Completed. Organization
Goes Out of Existence.

The National College Equal Suffrage
League yesterday, at the New Eb-
bitt, resolved to go out Of existence.
This action was taken on the ground
that the educational purpose for which
the league was organized in 1SS-to
make suffragists OF college women
has been attained, and because Of the
fact that the Association Of Collegiate
AIumnae convention in this city last
April passed unanimously a resolu-
ton strongly indorsing the Federal
amendment.
The large number of subsidiary or-
ganizations Of the College League,
leagues in cities and chapters in col
leges, fifty-one in all. comprising over
5000 members. were urged to continue
their organizations where they have
undertaken special work. and to af-
filIate with State organizations In
working for the Federal amendment.

Hundreds Of otherwise pretty girls

all the result OF undigested food in

UNCLE SAM BIG FOOD BUYER
Board Bill for Country's Soldiers Soon
Will Be 100000 a Day, Il
10 Estimated.

"War has made Uncle Sam the big.
gest buyer Of food in this country and
the board bill for his soldiers will be
100000 a day." according to Charles
Lathrop Pack, president Of the nation
al emergency food garden commission
of Washington.
1--WE are to have two million men un.
der arms shortly, according to the best
reports. At 40 cents a day 1t will be
seen what that means. True, these
men ate before becoming soldiers to
make the world safe for democracy.
They doubtless ate more than 40 cents
worth daily, which Uncle Sam figures
Is the cost per man, but you must re.
member that these men have suddenly
become non-producers and they must
be fed. The army Is making great
plans for camouhage to deceive the
eyes Of the enemy, but you cannot de-
ceive soldiers stomach. He must
have real food.
II am told that the reserve stock
Of foodstuffs at each camp is $125,OOO,
and there are 81 camps in the coun-
try today; that means that food valued
at $4,125,0O0 is taken out Of the regu-
lar channels of the trade. These fig
ures give only an idea of the need of
food conservation on the part of the
indiyidual at this time.

visitors book. "Ditto," wrote the duke
Of Connaught.
On the occasion Of the duke of Con-

fend the ears Of some Of the residents
Of a fashionable hotel in the Place
Vendome nearby. They fled COM

replied: "They are authorized to make
as much noise as they please. The
British soldiers were not told to make
less noise when they blew up the mines
at Messines."
Twice a week the men at "Blighty
Corner" are taken to visit the old cor
ners of Paris. An interesting incident
occurred this week when party WIS.,
