present at the conference last nigh
at Secretary Daniels home. also re

with naval experts Neither the sec

discuss the result of the meeting las
night further than to say that prog
ress was being made and that NOR.

ward without delay In some case.
extensive practical tests already have
been made with striking results.
There is no doubt that navy Off
cials were deeply impressed by whei
was disclosed at the conference las
night Some Of them appear to be
carefully holding their optimistic
first judgment in check, fearing tina
an unexpected difficulty will arise to
bring plans to- naught
One official explained that what
was being done probably would result
in adding several ways and means tc
the anti-submarine crusade. It Is
upon the cumulative effect of all thf
proposed new devices as well as
methods OF operation against sub
marines that the feeling Is based thai
something can be accomplished to
ward checking the ravages OF the Z.

That American inventive genius
soon will find solution for the prob
lem of how to meet the submarine
menace was the hope held out today
by high naval officials and member:
OF the naval consulting board. They
conferred last night at Secretary Dan.
iels' home over experiments with de
vices alfeady tried ont and those in
prospect.
Officials declined today to go into
details concerning the conference It
became definitely known. however
that one result was the decision to
have the naval boards experts con.
time their experiments with inven.
tions designed to combat the subma.
rines.
Secretary Daniels, in discussing the
work OF the board, declared that its
members believed that they are on
the right road and are going to turn
out something worth while"
THE plans" he added. ARE no
dreams and are very important and
far-reaching.

RICHMOND, Va, July 20.-Plans to help harvest the potato crop in this state by the use of boy scouts received q setback here today when nearly 1 1,000 boys, who had already been sent to the rural districts, were ordered back to their hoves, and an investigation started. It Is said that the trouble originated be- cause the boys were paid only l5 cents a barrel, while Negroes have been paid 20 and 25 cents for the same amount. A personal repre- sentative of Major General Bell is investigating the affair.
 Although the harvest work was not by any means completed, the truckers, through a producers or ganization of which they are all members, circulated the order to quit, scout officials say. No reason was given by the truckers, but 1t was judged to be the congestion in the big potatoe markets, and the drop of $3 a barrel in price.

BOY SCOUTS MADE
 GOAT FOR THE FARMERS

said Bryan, "when they announced that boys could readily earn from $2.50 to $3 a day. Perhaps they can, but the farmers own child rcn do not attempt it for them selves and they don't have to, for two counties are raising 100000 barrels of potatoes and selling them at $9 a barrel. It is the East ern shore farmer and not the city dweller who is the plutocrat to- day."
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1917-07-25

Scout officials were inclined to blame the interruption of 'worF alone for the withdrawal, saying that there was no ill treatment. but only temporary hardship, due to inadequate preparation for tn ; boys reception.
 Mayor Allen Potts of the Virginia national guard carried on the in vestigation for General Bell, and the order of withdrawal was given after he had conferred with John
