BRITAIN NOW HAS
NEW DEVICE THAT
WILL GET U-BOAT

London, March 27. - Although
that there is no boast that it is a
panacea for the submarine menace,
one of the latest British inventions
to combat the U-boats has arous-
ed unusual interest 1t is being
tried out now and it is said to be
certain that some undersea craft
will never return to port and that
when it is used on a more extensive
scale a steady toll will be taken.
1t is believed the device is proof
against any counter device which
the Germans may resort to, therein
differing from many others which
have been used during the war.
High naval authorities here never
have banked their hopes on any sin
gle invention to outwit the sub
marines, but have encouraged all
inventors to submit their plans.
This, too, has been the attitude of
the board of inventions, which now
is linked with the American board
by an American professor of high
standing.

He pointed out that the French
army, whose valor the enemy rec
ognizes, is intact
This is but a minute part of our
army" he added Not even 10 di-
visions have participated in the bat
tie"
Leon Abrami, under-secretary for
pensions, summed up the situation
thus:
After hard combats with the
British troops the Germans are
about to meet the shock of a pow
erful French army, perfectly fresh,
animated by a spirit of sacrifice,
and protected by curtains of ar
tillery fire such as it is difficult to
conceive Of This army has been
taken to the scene of action by rail-
road and every other route. Most
of these troops have not yet fired a
bullet or a she'll Hitherto a few
independent divisions have checked
the enemy's program.
Furthermore, formidable Brit
ish reserves of maneuver are arriv-
ing battlefield, so that the enemy's S
gains of ground can be but ephem-
eral."

Secure Ships
from Japan

Washington, March 27-Negotia-
tions for the transfer of 15O, 900
tons of Japanese shipping to the
United States have been completed
on the basis of two tons of steel
plates for one ton of dead weight
ship capacity.
This agreement is understood 70
be in the nature of a preliminary
one intended to bridge over the
period of negotiations now being
conducted by American Ambassa-
dor Morris at Toxic for a wider and
more permanent understanding.
Signing of the agreement is all
that remains.
The United States first asked for
100000 tons of ships and negotia-
tions proceeded on that basis until
the Russian debacle brought up the
possibility of Japanese action in
Siberia Japan was unwilling to
relinquish more than 10000 tons,
asking in return the lifting of the
steel export embargo so that she
might replace the ships with new
ones. AS one ton of plate makes
about three tons of shipping she
will gain so per cent shipping ca
pacity in the end.
Prices which the United States
and Japan will pay for the ships
and steels, respectively, have not
been made public.
