Three years ago Dillon man had
to bring suit for the recovery OF
three bales of cotton. The action was
brought in the magistrates court
because the amount did not exceed
500. A ew days ago this gentle
man had to bring suit for the re-
covery of one bale OF cotton. When
h eapplied the magistrates court the
court informed him that he would
have to take his case to the circuit
court, as the value of the bale of

Business men directing the gov

Curtailment of production of mo-

DESTROYERS FEARED BY
UNDERSEAS CRAFT
Diary Taken From U-Boat Com
manders Furnished Evidence
to This Effect.

Base of the American Flotilla In
British Waters Nov. 5.-Diaries ia
ken from captured u-boat com
manders furnish documentary evil
dence that the destroyer is the most
effective of present weapons against
the submarine. Avoided destroy
err is the old-repeated entry. In
fact these logs show conclusively
that the submarines are having a
hard time OF 1t.
The result or the destroyer actiy-
ity during the last four weeks has
been not only decrease in casualties
of merchant ships. but also still
more satisfactory increase in the
number OF submarines sunk.
The conveying OF merchantmen
has now reached stage OF consid-
cradle perfection after many
months work in training both the
officers of merchant ships and the
personnel of the patrol fotilla.
The offensive side of conveying
may best be shown by an illustra-
ton. When a submarine tries to
/ torpedo a conveyed ship-as sub
marines are now compelled to do
owing to the infrequency of uncon-
voyed shipping there is always a
destroyer on the scene and the
chances OF her getting" that par

The wake of torpedo is gener-
ally seen by the destroyer's lookouts
anu il gives a So0a i:nc CT the di-
rection where the submarine is w.
ing. The destroyer immediately
steers course full speed in the line
shown by the torpedos wake and
drops repeated depth charges along
this course
In considerable proportion OF
cases this proves effective. The AS
sociated Press correspondent was
told of three cases during the last
fortnight in which submarines were
thus destroyed. In many instances
! no doubt submarines are DESTROYED
without any visible indication above
water OF their loss Still others are
badly crippled. as in the case OF the
damaged German u-boat which was
recently interned in Spain.
Another submarine which never
will return to Germany was sunk un-
der peculiar circumstances a short
time ago. This u-boat torpedosd a
ship bound from the United States.
1t is extremely unwise and unsafe to
fire a torpedo at such close range,
but the u-boats must take their tar
gests as they get them these days
The torpedoed ship was loaded with
cargo of heavy war material and
the explosion was so forcible that IL |

kERENSKY SAYS RUSSIA

Worn Out and Tired But Not
Ready to Quit-Necds Sup
plies From America.

Petrograd, Nov. 5.-In view OF
reports reaching Petrograd that the
impression was spreading abroad
that Russia was virtually out of the
war. Premier kerensky discussed the
present condition Of the country
frankly today with the Associated
Press. He said Russia was worn
out by the long strain. but that it
was ridiculous to say the country
was out of the war
The premier referred to the years
in which Russia had fought her own
campaign alone, with no such as
sistance as had been extended TO
France by Great Britain and now by
America He said he felt help was
urgently needed and that Russia
asked it as her right. He urged
that the United States give aid. in
the form OF money and supplies, and
appealed to the world not TO lose
faith in the Russian revolution.
Russia, VI. Kerensky added. was
taking an enormous part in the
struggle and those who said she was
out of it must have short memo
ries.

Americas most useful way OF
helping Russia is in sending boots

kerensky said it would be impossi-
Bile for the United States to send
troops because the difficulties OF
transport would be too great.
Russia is not out of the war. Pre-
mier Kerensky said in reply to re-
ports to the contrary.
Russia has fought consistently
since the beginning. She saved
France and England from disaster
early in the war. She is now worn
out by the strain and claims as her
right that the allies now shoulder
the burden"
Thus Premier Kerensky explained
Russia's position to the correspond
ent. The premier was seated in the
library of the former private office
of the emperor in the Winter Pal
ace. The correspondent called at
tention to widely contradictory re
rorts on Russian conditions and ask
ed the premier for frank statement
of the facts.

"Is Russia out of the war;" Pre-

That" he answered, "is a ridic-

enormous part in the war. One has
only to remember history. Russia
began the war for the allies. While
she was already fighting, England
