PLAN STRICTER CONTROL
OF ALL ENEMY ALIENS

New regulations governing enemy
aliens. much more drastic and planned
to be more effective than those now
operating. were up for final considera-
ton at today's cabinet meeting.
They are expected to deal efficiently
with the menace of fires, bomb plots,
the conveying Of Information to Ger
many and other activities intended to
hamper the government in conduct of
the war.
The regulations have been drawn by
Attorney General Gregory. who favors
strong action to deal with the men
ace. When finally approved they will
be embodied in proclamation by
President Wilson. The question of
forcing all enemy aliens away from
the vantage points of the seaboard, as
we'll as forbidding them entry to GER
tain barred zones. is one of the princi-
pal considerations.

.U-bOAT UNDEFEATED
SAYS BRITISH LORD
Sir Eric Geddes Tells House OF
Commons Allies Must Not
ReIent on Sea.
OPINION is SHARED HERE
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 16.-In reply to
a question in the house of commons to-
day Sir Eric Geddes. first lord of the
admiralty. said: THE good return of
tonnage sinking by enemy submarines
last week. and indeed the comparative
III 4aHnrahls result 81 the last two
months. ought not. to be taken as In
dicating that the submarine menace il
a thing of the past, or defeated"
Sir Eric recalled his recent speech in
the house Of commons, in which he said
the enemy's attack on British trade
was being held, but had not been de-
feated; that the Germans were building
submarines faster than the British were
destroying them. but that with improved
methods he looked for the eventual de-
feat of this menace. He also reminded
rine tonnage was not being maintained
against the depredations OF subma-
rines.
Nothing Left Undone.
'I see no reason in what has hap
pened since, or in the favorable results
of the last week." he continued. "to
qualify or modify in any way what I
have said as publicly as, possible. that
the calls upon the merchant shipping
of the world for wagfng war are so
great that nothing should be left un-
said or undone which will bring home
to the people of this and allied coun-
tries that economy in everything which
Is seaborne has direct. vital and early

the war: that shipyards are short OF
men and women, and that all labor
which can be saved from unnecessary
work and diverted to the shipyards will
have direct effect on winning the
war.

good or one bad week or month in ton
mage Sinktngs.
Are Mastering Submarines.
1.-THE steady downward curve since
April shows that we hold and for the
present are mastering the submarine.
The rise in merchant shipbuilding at
present and proposed shows we are
counteracting the enemy's efforts. But
I repeat that we must have increased
output in marine engine shops and ship
yards"
American naval experts. it was made
plain today, do not agree with the
view that the lu1l in submarine activ-
tiles indicates a collapse of the U-boat
campaign or that anti-submarine
measures have proved wholly effective.
They agree that progress is being made
against the menace, but prefer to post
ooue Judgment on whether the U-boat
has been eliminated as a factor until
the theory has been more thoroughly
tested.
Meanwhile the American Navy will
continue it's preparations to deal with
the menace.
Secretary Daniels authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
.The submarine menace has not
proved the decisive factor In the war
that the Germans predicted 1t would be.
It has done great harm, which should
not be underestimated. and is still
menace. It's purpose was to starve
England by August. and this. of course,
it has failed to do"

Discusses Political Situation.

AS to the political situation. he said
that politics seemed to be quiescent for
the present. everybody being interested
in war matters. He expressed gratifi-
cation over the result of the vote in
New York on the suffrage question, and
also said that he felt very keen inter-
est in the coming election of a senator
in the state of Wisconsin. Asked II he
had seen the interview of Senator
Salisbury of Delaware, he smilingly
said that he had read that interview
with much interest and a considerable
degree of amusement. He said that
when Senator Salisbury becomes non
partisan 1t is time for republicans to be
on their guard. but he added that Sena-
tor Saulsbury's nonpartisanship seemed
to consist in the expressed hope that
all the loyal men in Wisconsin. rebub-
licans as well as democrats, would turn
in and elect a democrat to the Senate.
Senator Gallinger Is chairman Of a
committee of senators which is expect
ed to look after the election of repub-
lican senators in the several states, and
he said that for his part. and also
speaking for the committee of which he
is chairman, he favored the election OF
a straight-out and uncompromising re-
publican from the state of Wisconsin,
a man who would support the funda-
mental principles of the republican
party and be absolutely loyal to the
best interests of the country in the con-
duct of the war and in the matter of ap-
propriations.

EXPLAINS DENIAL
Of MAIL PRIVILEGE
Postmaster Generals Answer
in Court to Milwaukee
Leaders Complaint.
UPHOLDs ESPIONAGE ACT

Postmaster General Burleson today
answer to the mandamus proceedings

voking the second-class mailing privi-
iegee of the Milwaukee Leader, the

which involves the validity of the
espionage act, was continued by Justice
Hitz until November Is.
The answer sets forth that the action
OF the Postmaster General was In pur-
suance of authority of law and in
volved an exercise of his judgment
and discretion. which Is not renewable
in court Of law. Mr.. Burleson in
sists that the espionage act is valid
and constitutional. but asserts that his
denial of the privilege to the newspa-
per in question was not based entirely
on that enactment.

Assistant United States Attorney Van
Fleet appear for the Postmaster Gem

bar and Attorneys Cochems & Wolfe
of Milwaukee represent the publishing
company.
Mr.. Burleson's Statement.
Mr.. Burleson denies that the Leader
has complied with the provisions of the
espionage act. and says:
From the date of the declaration of
war and continuously down to the ac-
ton of the respondent (Burleson) COM
planned Of by the relator Ieader) this
respondent AYERS that from matter re-
ceived at the Post Office Department
from various sections of the country he
finds that there exists an organized
propaganda to discredit and impede in
every way the government in the prose-
cution of this war, with the purpose of
defeating the objects for which this
government is spending billions of dol
lars and will probably be called upon to
sacrifice thousands Of lives.
The publications forming this propa-
ganda in any cases subtly guard their
criminal liabilities of their acts under
the espionage law. they are nevertheless
united in publishing the same character
of matter, whether partially true or en-
tirely false. and are daily ACCOMPLISHING

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. November 16.-The German
artillery fire is daily growing more In
tense on that part OF the front line
held by American troops. The artil-
lery, as well as the infantry. is getting
its baptism Of steel. which is rapidly
hardening the men into veterans.
Hitherto the shelling on this sector has
not been heavy, but 1t is livening up,
the incentive being the unusual efforts
of the American batteries and the ap-
parent desire of the Germans to infiict
telling blows. in the hope of demoraliz-
ing the new American contingents.
Tho men are holding their own under
the severe ordeal, and express their
satisfaction at being given an oppor-
tunity to show their mettle and to
have experience in genuine active
