THE ONLY REMEDY
 IS MORE FERTILIZER

In many respects the speech of Sem ator Underwood was a remarkable con- tribution to the literature dealing with the economic side of the war situation. It caused everyone to wonder why in the in carrying out the direction of Congress that an inexhaustible source of food and powder be established:
 1T regret that it is left to me to make this speech this afternoon" said the senator. II think I have as much patience as any other man. I have been patient for an entire year. But I know that if an enemy of this coun- try was able to drive us off the seas, we could not fight first-class power six months. For we have no ade- uuate powder supply. And I know that if we want the people of this country to have abundant food and cheaper food. we must give our farm CTS an opportunity to raise an abund- X ant food crop and a cheaper food crop.
 There is but one way out and you can read it in the history of the world. The essential thing for producing cheap food is rich land and when rich land has been depleted. that which takes the place of cheap land is fertilizer; but other senators know as I know that when We had a bill here a year ago to provide fer- tilizer supply some of the great in- terests placed themselves like lions across our path and they are there yet"
 MT. Smith of Georgia at this juncture asked Senator Underwood to suggest .

The destroyers, now aiding in the hunt for submarines in European waters un- der the direction of Admiral Sims, put into port at Queenstown on May 4. How long they were in crossing the Atlantic or from what port they sailed never has been announced, and until word of their arrival came by cable only few people in the United States even knew of the governments decision to send warships to Europe.

 the Body

Mobile, May (SpecialD-M Julia May Hess, 27, of Fulton, Ala, is the name of the woman who was foully murdered at Chickasabosue bridge at 2:so o'clock Monday morn ing and her body thrown into the water from an automobile. Her iden- tity was established by R. c. Hess, her husband. who came here today in an automobile with (. F. Smith and two other men from Fulton. Smith also identified the woman as Mrs. Hess. He clerks in the Scotch Lumber company's store and said he sold Mrs. Hess the cloth for the dress she wore when Killed and also the corset taken off her body by the coroner.
 Two negroes are held tonight by the police The first arrested, bur, .ley yellow negro over six feet tall and weighing over 200 pounds, was Fisher Brooks. Brooks was the last person seen with Mrs. Hess She left the St. Andrew hotel in his taxicab Tor the Louisville and Nashville depot. She had intended leaving for Jacksonville

 The second negro. Albert Sanders, drove the taxicab from the hotel when Mrs. Hess arrived in Mobile.
 The police reported that stains found on a fqotmat in Brooks automobile were found to have been blood stains No charge has yet been placed against the negro.
 TRUSTED BY HUSBAND
 From all indications Mrs. Hess was a woman of excellent reputation, let ters from leading citizens of Fulton testifyine to that effect and also spoke in highest terms of her husband. The latter, when told of the negroes state ment tonight. said II do not believe negroes story. l trusted my wife and will never believe she would have done anything wrong" He added that his wife followed his instructions upon arriving in Mobile, which were to take taxi and go to the St. Andrew hotel

the espionage work of his government all ready is under arrest or under surveil- lance. Other arrests may follow at any time and now that the country is at war and the revela ton of its secrets may mean death to it's sailors and soldiers, swift punishment undoubtedly would be dealt out to any convicted spy.
 IN SHADOW OF GALLONS
 Men now in custody operated when the United States was neutral. Spying now is a very different thing and is likely to lead to the gallows instead of to com fortable detention quarters.
 In announcing Admiral Sims dispatch, the navy department, through the com mittee on public information said:
 The department calls attention to this fact as proof that the German spy sys- tenn is still at work in this country, mak- ing imperative the need of secrecy in con- nection with our naval operations. The premature publication of ship movements is particularly a source of danger"

MURDERED WOMAN |N0 AMERICAN WAR IS IDENTIFIED AS VESSELS SUNK, SAYS
 MRS. JULIA HESS SECRETARY DANIELS
Absolute Denial Is Made of Wild R,lmors Being Spread Throughout Country by
 Unknown Persons

Washington. May 25.-A categorical de- nial that any American naval vessels have been sunk in the war was issued tonight by Secretary Daniels to counter act campaign of vicious rumors that is heing carried on so industriously by persons unknodn." It was the first of fieial notice to be taken of a flood of reports of naval disasters that started almost as soon as it was known that American destroyers were in the war gene.
 MANY FALSE REPORTS
 "It is with deep regret" said the secre- tary in a formal statement, that I note the daily stream of false reports with regard to the sinking of American ships Brokerage wires are a particular source of these basseless rumorS that cannot, but be the cause of needless distress to every true American as well as to the mothers and fathers of the nation who have sons at sea.
 ''The department has given repeated as- surances that it's policy is to be one of absolute frankness with respect to dis aster If it should be that ships are sunk, full information will be given out officially and quickly.
 REASON IS UNKNOWN
 The reason for these false reports can- not be ascertained. The one hope is that the press will refuse to aid this cam paign of vicious rumor that is being car- ried on so industriously by persons un- known"
 Although only in remote cases have sensational runors found their way into print, their distribution has been widespread and in some cases their in- fluence has been marked by wide fluctua- tions in grain cotton and ftock ex- changes.
 INNUMERABLE INQUIRIES The Washington correspondents and news services have had nnumerable in- quiries about reported disasters to one or another destroyer or battleship, and one rumor widely circulated told of a myth ical engagement off IIelgoland in which a large number of American ships were supposed to have been lost All of these stories have been denied in- formally by, the navy censor, and hun dreds of newspapers, acting under a voluntary censorship and relying on the governments assurances of policy of frankness, have refrained from publishing them. x X

 outskirts of Versio.
 The Austrians have attempted to check the Italian advance on the south ern Carso by making violent counter attacks south and east of Gorizia and along the vodice sector. At all points the Austrians were driven back with heavy losses, and east of Hill 652, on the Vodice, the Italians captured the position from which the Austrians emerged to the attack. The number Of
 prisoners taken hy General Cadorna's command since Wednesday morning has increased to ,10.245, including more than
 300 officers.
 ON ARRAS FRONT Local infantry attacks by the British
 and the Germans and intensive artil- fiery and aerial activity on the Arras front may indicate a renewal shortly of the intensive fighting there. Around Loos and near Bullecourt the northern and southern ends of the Drocourt- 1 Queant swith line, both armies have l made attacks, but with no great suc- cess yet reported.
 FRENCH ARE ACTIVE i Near Brave en- Laonnois and east of lcraonne. on the Aisne front, the French and Germans have again been at grips. In the region of Pantheon, northwest 1 of Brave, the Germans. after an ar l tillery bombardment, gained a foothold l in the French lines after several at
 tempts. Immediate counter attacks by the French, however, drove the forces of the German Crown Prince from most

WOULD TAKE POWER
 FROM THE EXPERTS

Senator Underwood, in an address be- fore the Senate. charged the comnittee on agriculture and forestry with the duty of incorporating in the food supply bill a provision locating the government plant already authorized, and directing it's operatio at the earliest possible date. The committee had previously reported the food supply bill. It provided various power for MT. Hoover, the food admin istrator and was calculated by its au- thors to be able to prevent a period of starvation by the unnatural process of diminishing consumption.
 The bill was recommitted.
 You have done only half your duty" declared Senator Underwood. Tt is proper that the food supply be conserved. It is eminently more proper however, that means be re- sorted to for he purpose of increasing the supply. A year ago Congress appropriated s2oo0O,ooo for the estab- lishment of nitrate plant. Towards the accomplishment of that purpose nothing has been done. The commit tee has the key to the solution of the food problem. If the committee learns that the experts are preparing to do nothing the committee should
 act of its own volition. Let the committee itself, determine on pro- cess and site for the plant

r FEDERAL NITRATE PLANT SHOULD BE LOCATED AT ONCE THINKS UNDERWOOD Attention Is Called to Un- necessary and Dangerous
 Delay in Beginning
 Construction KEY TO FOOD PROBLEM AND CONDUCT OF WAR SAYS JUNIOR MEMBER This Country Must Not Be Dependent Upon Chile
 for Fertilizer and
 Powder Supplies
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington, May 25. (Special)- )-FOod conditions in the United States are con- sidered by the administra- tion to be so serious that it regards as essential the ap- pointment of a flood admin istrator."
 The country is engaged in the most serious war which has ever been waged in the history of the world. And yet should German subma- rines ever become as effec- tive in American waters as they are at present in Brit ish waters, the United States would be cut off from the Chilean nitrate supply, and could not continue the struggle for an additional six months.
 One year ago Congress appropriated $20,000,000 for the purpose of filching
 nitrogen from the atmosphere and transforming it into gunpowder and fertilizer. Congress directed the President to find an available site for 1 the establishment of the necessary plant and satisfactory process by means of which to acquire atmos- ! pheric nitrogen.
 l Because the President Shas deemed 1t proper to delegate his authority to the cabinet. and the cabinet in turn, has seen proper to delegate the delegated authority to various efficiency experts" nothing has been accomplished. '
