late yesterday the anti-alien land

A telegram was read in the senate

of this kind be enacted at this time.
Japan objected to the proposed bill,
which is similar to California's anti
alien land ownership law, and the
State Department asked the Idaho
delegation in congress to use their

Borah, printed with his authorize

Will Overcome Submarine
Discarded, Says Daniels
WASHINGTON, Nov. IA.

Secretary Daniels announces that i'm
portant progress has been made In the
problem OF locating submarines, after which
their destruction Is a comparatively simple
matter. Discussing the 10000 separate sug-
gestlons, plans or models Of devices sub
mitted to the Naval Consulting Board
since the United States entered the war
aaginst Germany, the Secretary said:
The idea that the submarine will he over
come by a miraculous invention Is not nov
seriously considered. The more intimate
knowledge the civilian obtains on this sub
Iect. the more convinced he is that the sub
marine can be conquered by perslstently
hunting him down by the weapon of which
he is most afraid. This is the armed sory-
ice boat, equipped with all the latest Scion
tihc devices and typihed Ia the modern tor
pcdoboat destroyer, Foreign naval sutbor,
ties have frankly stated their adm ration os
the degree OF perfection Of American de-
signs
against the torpedoboat attacks, the unde9
niable evidence of recent months of subn1a-
rine activity has demonstrated that the i'm =
of a vessel depends very largely On
its speed and maneuvering ability There ia a
possibility that some artificial means OF nyo
iecting cargo carrying vessels may be fo,ii,1
practicable. In no other field have SO manV
or so many duplicate inyer-
tions been presented to the board"
