WANTS NEW SKY ROVER NAMED
 PEACE COMET
,>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
(By United Press)

LONDON, Feb. 12. The ' announcement in America re-
 ' gently of the appearance of new comet has excited interest : in England. It is regarded as
 : peace omen and a prominent : paper suggested that it be
 , called the peace comet" be- { cause the American reports say , it will be visible to the naked {
 , eye during July, 1917, and that { , is the date when the prophets {
 say peace will be declared. Dr. A. c. D. Crommelin, British astronomer, is authority for the
 statement that the peace
 } comet" will gradually approach
 the earth until July, when 1t
 will become faintly visible, but
 not a grand spectacle such as Haliey's comet in 1910. >><> ~ = >>>>>< =

WASHINGTON. Feb. 12. = The government will speedily find a way whereby American merchant. men, held by fear of German sub marines. may arm themselves and resume their sailings. The gov ernment will not supply guns or gunners direct or even formally advise sailings.
 President Franklin, of the In- ternational Mercantile Marine, has formally applied to the navy department for guns to arm Am erican liners.
 Officials here are still inclined to regard the latest offer of Ger many to discuss means of pre- venting war as an effect to cast on the United States the appear ance of being belligerent in it's official attitude. The United States and German governments can have no diplomacy dealing until Germany abandons it's pro- gram of unrestricted warfare. All other advances meanwhile will only beclOud the issue of Ameri- can rights and the German note may remain unanswered.
 Yesterday the total number of merchant ships submarined was the smallest since the campaign begun, and 1t now looks as though the ruthless destruction of vessels has been checkmated.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. - The navy department. while opposed for military reasons to any pro- ject for conveying American mer- chantmen through the submarine area, favors furnishing such ships with guns for their own defence. The navy has considered nun. Der of old model three to six inch rifles available for arming mer- chant ships, but not enough for the conversion of all ships that it would require in time of war and also to furnish defensive ar mament for all merchantmen.
 The question of supplying trained gun crews Is a difficult one, as there is objection to withdrawing men from active navy service at this time, and also some question as to what effect naval gunners would have on the status of the ships. The French navy furnished guns to merchant men. but the guapeee were civil iens.
