Daily Recorded in Cam
paign.

An average net gain of III recruits
a day has been recorded in the pres
ent naval recruiting campaign. The
gain for the first four days Of this
week was 467 recruits.
Reports to the Navy Department to-

RIFLE OUTPUT SHORT
Two ArsenaIs Only Producing About
500 a Day.


With facilities for producing 1900
rifles a day, the Government arsenals
at Springfield and Rock Island are
today. turning out about" 500 every
ewenty-four hours.
Up to September 1, Springfield was
turning out fifty or sixty rifles daily;
the rifles WORKS at Rock Island had
been idle for years.
There are available today approx
mately 100000 Springfield rifles Of the
latest type used by the army. There
are also available about 100000 Krags
that have been discarded for the new
model, and which are available not
only for drilling purposes, but are
still "shootable."
According to Congressman Hull,
Republican, of Iowa, member of the
House Military Committee. 1t is the
fault of Congress that the Government
plants have not been turning out more
rifles The army appropriation bill
would have furnished money needed
for this purpose had it not been killed
when the twelve willfuP' ilibusters
blocked all Legislation. at the last ses-
sion.
Hull said arrangements now are
under way to run the plants at fullest
capacity within a short time.
1t was only September /, last, when
special appropriations became avail
able, that the Government has been
able to speed up to the extent 1t
has. Hull said.
Military experts have figured that
under newest war conditions there
must be an average of three and one
half rifles per man. Five per man
are provided by Germany.

U-BOATS CLEARING
WAYFOR CONGRESS
Practically All Doubt as to
Belligerent Action Passes
Before Latest 0utrages.

Practically all doubt as to the &C.
tion of Congress in passing a reso-
luton which virtually will mean a
declaration of war against Germany
has been swept away by the latest
reports on German submarine activ-
ities.
Sinking of the American steamer
Healdton, with the loss Of twenty-one
lives, off the Dutch coast, has
aroused such a feeling that but little
urging from the President will be
needed when Congress assemblies a
week from next Monday to obtain
passage OF q resolution which will
war. The measure is likely to be in
state OF war exists.
However, everybody realizes that
while this is not technically a war
declaration, 1t will be so construed
the world over.
Much speculation is being INDUCED
In as to when the first clash between
an American armed ship and a Ger
man submarine will come.
Word is beginning to come into
Washington of an almost country
wide demand for belligerent action
on the part of the United States. It
Is well known that sentiment in the
interior of the country, both West
and South. has been opposed to war.
Now, according to information reach
ing Washington, there is a trend
strongly in favor OF war as the only
possible course left to the United
States, This information is reflected
in some newspapers which have
taken a pacifist stand in the past
and In letters reaching here.
Chairman Flood OF the House For
