across the Atlantic the submarine
would not be holding such high car
nival as is now apparent. This would
be the right kind of convoy for the
merchant ships. Leave the battle
ships for the heavy fighting.
Under existing conditions there Is
not such a demand for more subma-
rines either, although submarines
are absolutely necessary for the navy.
1t Is not feasible for a submarine to
fight a submarine. and as the one
great object to be attained at present
Is to rid the ocean of these piratical
craft the one style of vessel needed
most of all for the present Is the
torpedo boat. 1t ought not to be
difficult for our shipyards to turn out
any quantity of these within a COM
paratively short time. By equipping
the navy with large feet of these
speedy little torpedo boats the sub
marine menace would not be 50
formidable.

The announcement from the White

rest for all time the doubts and fears
that have been expressed in some
quarters. This country does not stoop
to such tactics as that In this re-

THE TORPEDO GOAT

We hear u great deal about having

submarine sinking the battleship first,
and then going after the merchant
ship? The submarine sneaks up al
most wholly unobserved, and while

Making a
Great NAVY

There Is much encouragement in
the spirit with which the Naval Com
mittee of the House of Representa-
tives has taken up the work of ex-
panding the already large shipbuiid-
ing program in order to meet the re-
quirements of a critical situation
Whether or not we are to have war
now, the possession of such a navy
as Congress has not only authorized
but is desirous of having built with
out delay, is essential to the safety of
this country. Certain measures ap-
proved by the House committee are
clearly war measures, such as the au-
thorization of the President to COM
mandeer all private shipyards and
munition plants i'll the United states.
The authorization to the President to
take possession of all vessels building
in American shipyards, whether on
American or foreign orders, originat-
ed in the Committee on Merchant
Marine as an amendment to the Ship
Purchase bill. The shipyards and
munition plants have already been
rendered to the Government by their
owners. 1t might be necessary in case
of war to seize all ships in the yards,
paying for them, of course.
But quite as important as these
measures not to be resorted to except
In extremity are the immediate plans
for expediting naval expansion. They
would empower the President to COM
pei shipbuilders and munition makers
to give precedence to work for the
United States. The extra appropria-
ton of $150,00o,000 for rushing to
completion all of the warships now
under construction should give the
navy four new dreadnoughts in six
months, and should greatly increase
the available fleet of destroyers, while
with this new impetus every war ses-
! sci already laid down should be com
| pleted within two years. The new
| budget amounts approximately to
! $500, 900. 900. The sum Is ample. The
| will that prompts this practical rec
| ognition of the needs of our navy and
it's value in the defense of the nation
is most commendable. 1t is not con-
| ceiTable that with the rich resources
of this country these plans cannot be
carried out, that all the new subma-
rines and destroyers will not be ready
when needed, that our capital ships in
commission will not rapidly increase
| in number.
| Already we have a navy to be reck.
oned with, and every available ship II
has is being put in condition: oul
navy may turn out to be. when it Il

WORTHY OF THE PLACE

That there are bright prospects for
Alfred S. March, of New Brunswick,
securing the appointment to the
Public Utility Commission will be
gratifying news to the people Of
Middlesex county. If Governor Edge
desires to make appointments only
where men are fitted for the position.
and, at the same time, reward, when
possible, those who have served well
the Republican party, he could do no
better than to make Mr.. March a
public utility commissioner.
Middlesex county has for years
been In the control of the Democrats.
At the last election Middlesex rolled
up handsome majority for the
/ Republican candidates. 1t would be
great encouragement to the local
Republicans TO have the ability of
their leader recognized in such a
substantial manner as is proposed.
Mr.. March has every qualification
for public utility commissioner, and
while the whole state must be taken
into consideration in making such an
appointment, Middlesex county has
such large interests with which the
public utility commission is concern
ed that the appointment of a man
from this county would be entirely
appropriate.
There is only one objection that
might be raised to the appointment
of Mr. March. and that is the fact
that John w. Slocum, one of the
present commissioners, comes from
, Monmouth county, Immediately ad-
joining Middlesex. 1t might he
argued, and with some force, that the
commissioners should be more scat
tered throughout the state. The fact
that John J. Treacy. whose term ex-
pires, comes from Jersey City, leads
Hudson county to put in strong
claim for the appointment
However if ability and party serv-
ice count for anything the candidacy
of Mr.. March is fully justified. rs
there is no doubt AZ AZ. March
