Such families need no urging to

PERFECT ANSWER TO U-BOAT
 WAR IN NOW CLAIMED

Philadelphia, May 29.-The Phila, delphia Press published story We'd nesday to the effect that America has found the perfect answer to the German submarine terror" It is said to be a merchant submarine standard ized at about 7,500 tons of 5000 tons dead weight of such speed that it can even when submerged, easily elude any surface pursuer, and non-sink- able.
 The craft, the invention of Simon Lake, according to the Press, is cap able of submerging within half a minute and has been so standardized and sirnplified that the first one may be turned out in four months and others after that at the rate of three or four a week. It will burn heavy oil and the construction is said to be such that its parts can be made sim ultaneously in many widely scattered steel plants and assembled in a cen tral plant within few days.
 The vessels are to be built and op- erated, the story says, by the Mer- chant Submarine company, under gov ernment supervision. The company is capitalized at $10,000,000 and was chartered under the laws of Maine on May 10.

LENGTHENING THE MOTOR
 TRUCKS LIFE
Important Subject is Carefully Treat
 ed by Experts

Ever since motor trucks were first built in 1904, the overload evil has been the most serious thing that truck manufacturers have had to contend with. The very first truck was ire quently overloaded and perhaps the last one will be, but in the meantime thousands of motor trucks are passing into the discard each year. Overload ing, overspeeding and carlessness in upkeep are daily shortening the life of all types of trucks and the manu- lecturers only hope for the lessening of these evils is that motor truck owners and drivers will profit by their costly experience and effectually re- duce these practices to the very mini mum if not eliminate them entirely.
 When the truck builders had ap- parently exhausted every resource for combating overlooking, overspeeding and negligence in the general upkeep, the B. F. Goodrich Company attacked the problems from an entirely differ ent angle, in an illustrated article published as an introduction in the fifth volume of Motor Trucks of America which is issued each year by the Goodrich Truck Tire department
 The title of this article is, "Length- ening the Life of the Motor Truck and the story tells all that its subject implies. In part it reads: "It is of little use to tell the truck operator that he must not overload, must not overspeed, etc. He gets that every week of the month. It is not enough to say overlooking is bad He mus, be told why it is band and given actual reasons Always the human mind asks why and if the reason is insufficient it is not satisfied. But the reasons for overlooking are founded upon mathematics, an exact science
 The Goodrich company has gone in to the offices of the best truck and automobile engineers in the country to get these reasons first hand. They have been classified and stripped ot their technical trimmings and put in. to the language of the truck driver SC that everybody may understand Heretofore these facts have only beer available to technically trained men.
 After defining that much misunder. stood term factor of safety the ar. ticle discusses the effects of overload ing on every part of the motor truck It then gives a comprehensive ex. planation of destructive work of over, speeding. Many people do not know for instance, that an object having twice the speed of another of the same weight will perform four times as much work. Thus a bullet travel ing 2,000 feet per second will pene- trate target four times as deep as one going at the rate of 1000 feet per second. This principle is applid to the motor truck and it si shown fur ther that vehicle travelling at three times its normal speed will suffer shocks which are nine times more viol- ent than normal.
 The story now deals with the errors in driving which embraces the selec. tion of gears, management of the clutch, fabrication, etc It is unknown to man that piece of steel, however

FORESTRY REGIMENT
 TO BE ORGANIZED

Washington, May 29.--A forestry regiment" made up of foresters,- practical woodsmen, loggers, portable sawmill operators, and others experi- enced in numbering operations, for service in France, will, it is announced be raised immediately. The Forest Service, at the request of the War Department, will prepare plans for the organization and equipment of the force and will aid in securing suitable men. The regiment will form a unit of the Engineer Corps now being re- cruited to be sent abroad as soon as it can be organized and equipped.
 The organization of this regiment is the result of a suggestion made by the British Commission. Similar forces have been raised in Canada and are rendering valuable services. The object of the American forestry regi- ment, it is said, will be to convert available timber into material suitable for bridges, railroads, trenches, and other construction work with the least possible waste. At the same time the cutting will be done under the supervision of technical experts in cooperation with the French for esters. In this way the permanent damage to the forests incident to fur nishing the imperatively needed tim Der, it is hoped, will be kept as small as possible.
 The regiment will be organized in units capable of handling all kinds of woods and will include a number of portable sawmill outfits. It will be officered by trained foresters and ex- pert lumbermen who are thoroughly familiar with producing and deliver ing lumber. 1t will carry complete equipment fo r all kinds of woods work. The classes of men desired comprise axemen, teamsters, tie-cut- ters, mill-wrights, saw filers, sawyers, portable sawmill men, farriers, black smiths, lumberjacks, cooks, and car penters, as we'll as motorcycle and motor-truck operators.
 AS rapidly as enlistments are sec ured, the men will be assembled at six central points, which have already been designated. Many members of the Forest Service in the Southwest ern District have announced their in- tention to volunteer.

 Since it is the driver who carries the destiny of the truck in his hands, it is necessary to approach and con vince him that his job depends upon how strictly he adheres to the advice that is given him.

Ulfin7afun1 Ls Sent to Germany By he
 Argentine Republic

had prepared a resolution which they intended to introduce declaring a state of war already exists with Germany.
 The government is anxiously await ing Berlin's response before deciding on a rupture of relations or dec laration of war and. according to the foreign office. if the German govern ment's reported appreciation of Won Luxburg Is confirmed, Argentina will consider it an insult and declare war imme mediately. If no confirmation of this report is forthcoming only rup- ture of relations is likely.
 A declaration of war would result in shake-up fin the cabinet, several of the ministers maintaining that no cause for war exists. although ma- jority of the ministers and the public generally are willing to follow the government even into war.
 A great mass meeting was held to. day and there was unanimous call for an immediate break with Ger. many.
