Fear LifeboatS Failed
To Survive Bad Weather

PARIS, April S.-Twenty-eight of the
crew of the armed American liner Aztec
were still unaccounted for today and
hope was fast being abandoned for their
safety. Because the Aztec was torpe-
doed at night. and when a heavy sea
was running, II is not believed any ad-
ditional lifeboats survived the bad
weather. Nineteen of those aboard the
vessel, the first armed American mer-
chairman to fall victim to a German
submarine, were picked up by French
patrol boat
Official reports today said the Aztec
had no warning of the attack. The tor
pedo struck the ship squarely amid
ships, inflicting a vital wound and i'm
mediately putting the wireless out of
commission. Lifeboats were imme-
diately cast off, but one of these was
smashed at once. Eleven are believed
thus to have persisted. Another boat
was picked up. A third is missing.
Lieutenant Fuller Gresham and twelve
bluejackets, the gun crew aboard the
Aztec, were all saved, according to first
reports here

LONDON, April Al have taken a
few hours to collect the opinions OF
members of both houses of parliament

The experts in craftsmanship regard
the presidents speech as likely to rank
with the most notable utterances OF
Washington and Lincoln Its dignity,
restraint and insight are considered alb
solutely worthy of the chief of a hun
dred million of the republics citizens
at this tremendous moment.
The joining with the allies by the
United States is especially welcomed
by Englishmen who are fighting side
by side with the heroic French.
We regard the coming in Of Uncle
Sam as the help of another big brother
in Frances fight against the Prussian
bully.
We will be able to take care of our
own part Of the war on land, on sea,
in munition plants and in the treasury,
but the territories of France and Bel

ting that we or the free English-speak-

BRIDGEPORT BANKS WILL LOAN MONEY TO FARMERS WHO SEEK
 TO INCREASE LAND PRODUCTION

Finances for the increased produc- ton of food in Fairfield county are to be advanced by banks in all the larg- CT cities to farmers and agriculturists of known standing, in their communi- ties.
 Money is already available through the Resources Mobilization committee at Bridgeport and bankers are now in conference so that it will be possible next week for a farmer to draw these funds through the bank nearest to his property.
 Financial institutions here have ar ranged for at least half a million dol lars in loans upon the crops to be raised Security will be a note to mature after the harvest. A guar antee of necessity and good standing must be furnished by the Fairfield County Farm Bureau, which will in- vestigate each application made for cash aid.
 This plan to relieve the necessity of the farmers in the matter of seed, and labor, is probably the most radical step yet taken in any part of the Unit ed States.
 It means that the real agriculturist of the country will be given that scope, direction and assistance for which he has been clamoring and that the independent garden movement done under circumstances which at least are undirected. will be discount ed that actual results may be obtain ed.
 The movement first started by the agricultural subcommittee of the Re- sources Mobilization committee, en- listed the aid of banking institutions in Bridgeport.
 Farmers desiring money to buy seed and to hire labor will apply for such sums as they may actually need, stat ing the crops they will plant, the acreage, number of hands needed and previously employed and other data that may be essential.
 An expert of the Fairfield County Farms Bureau will at once be dis patched from a central office to visit the farm.
 He will take note of the conditions obtaining on each farm, the quality of soil and the ground to be planted. It will be required that the crops De
