 Sir Eric described briefly his tour of the Mediterranean and then touch ed on the smooth working of the naval reorganization in Great Britain and the work of the Allied naval council in Versailles. Touching on the rela- tions with the Allies and remarking that the naval forces in European waters soon would be augmented by a force of Brazilian war vessels, the first lord continued:
 "It is perhaps, natural that the CO., operation between ourselves and the United States should be extremely close. I wish in behalf of myself and my colleagues publicly to pay tribute to the whole hearted and generous de- votion to the prosecution of the war which has governed the action of every representative of the United States navy with which we came into contact. The personnel of all ranks has the respect and esteem of the of- ficers of the British navy.
 we have the advantage of con- stant consultations with Admiral Sims, who attends our daily staff con- ferences. We have American officers working in various sections of the British admiralty of exactly the same footing as British officers. The CO., operation between the two nations is as nearly complete as possible.''

SAY FIRM BROKE
 ORDERS ON SUGAR

Washington, March 6.-Complaint wa sissued today against Sears. Rec buck & Co.,, of Chicago by the federal trade commission, charging unfair methods of competition in the con- duct of it's business.
 The complaint summons the firm to answer a charge that it has adver- tised sugar for sale at three to four cents a pound, actually at a loss, but only on condition that certain amounts of other groceries be purchased for, which sufficient price is charged to make a profit on the combined sale. The complaint further charges that Sears, Roebuck & Co.,, with the pur- pose of injuring competitors, has cir culated catalogues representing the quality of merchandise sold by it's competitors as inferior.
 The complaint charged that the low price on sugar was made for the purpose of 1essening competition and creating a monopoly.
 A hearing has been set for April Il.

 Editor Bridgeport Times, Bridgeport, Conn,
 Sir:-Will you please pardon this letter, but I just want to thank the Times for finally taking the lead in putting stop to the disgusting petty waiIing of the Bridgeport Post. As an ordinary enlisted man in the U. s. Navy, it has almost made my blood boil to pick up this latter sheet and find in it petty and mean attacks On our President, especially at such times as these when every one-both in the service and those out of 1t, like the editor of the Post, (who can sit back in his chair and throw mud" at our Commander in Chief).
 We are all utterly disgusted with the Posts daily cheap attacks such as Washington (meaning MT. Wilson) as usual delays and Our professor President" etc, etc.
 Either let the Post come out in a manly way and criticize-instead of islander in a roundabout manner-or let it Hay off the continual nagging of anything our President does or says. Why not be for America for while?
 You have done us all a service, MT. Editor. Thank you.
 Truly yours,
 JUST A "GOB."

PULLMAN
 CONFERS WITH
 FOUNDRY HEADS

Judge John S. Pullman visited Der by yesterday for a conference with the officials of the Birmingham Iron Foundry, the shop committee repre- senting the union, and others in an effort to prevent a strike of the work CTS growing out of labor trouble last August with the Norwalk Iron Works. All parties seemed willing to effect a settlement of the matter, and it has been placed before tue national head of the ironwori1ers' union to de- wise some method of settlement.
 The Derby concern had a Slrb-con- tract to do certain work for the Nor walk Go. There was labor trouble in the Norwalk shops, last August, and the Derby men threatened to strike against doing the work. The work in question Is for the United States gov ernment, which has a contract with the Norwa.lk Iron Works for certain machinery.
 Judge Pullman obtained an injunc- tion to restrain the threatened strike, but prefers to make an anicaible set clement, which he hopes will be eff fected.

YANKEES REPEL
 HUN RAID WITH
 FRENCH PLANES
(Continued from Page 1.)

Observation balloons were up for the first time in several days, being stationed at intervals along the front as far as the eye could see in both directions. For the first time in the war an American observation balloon, fully manned and protected by Amer jeans. went up. This is the first com- pIete unit of the American air service to appear in the field. For two days it had been ready to as- cend, the observers having been up in a French balloon several days pre- viously. Today an American balloon company was working where the French hitherto have been.
 The balloon was hauled out from it's hidden nest and a slight delay was experienced in getting it off the ground because the telephone wires from the basket, in which were an American captain and lieutenant, were fouled. This was quickly reme- died and the balloon was sent up, re- maining in the air for several hours It rose higher than either the French or the German, in an attempt to reach an altitude especially favorable for observation.
 While it was at the highest point the watchers saw two aeropianes, with the black cross of the enemy on their wings, headed in their direction. The balloon was hauled down so that it might be grounded quickly if neces- sary. American gunners were on duty at many points nearby, for the bal loon was protected heavily. They stood by their guns, but the enemy planes, sailing across the sky with shrapnel puffs streaming out behind them like the tail of a comet, sud denly changed their course and head ed for home. The appearance of a squadron of planes from behind the American lines, bearing the insignia of the French on their wings, prob ably was the cause.
 The Germans persist in declaring they are not aware of the presence of American troops on the western front, writes the correspondent of the Temps with the British army in France. This, he says, may be pretense or the result of what they have been taught, but all prisoners, officers and privates, taken in the latest minor operations, when asked about the Americans in variably replied: 'rYes, we know that there is division in France and there never will be more. That is not enough to scare us."

HUNT TESTIFIES IN OWN BEHALF;
 CATE LAMPS OUT

Edgar W. Hunt took the witness stand in his own defense today in the Superior Court where he is being sued for S1O,000 for the death of John Marx, gate tender at the Yellow Mill bridge, and contended that on the evening of the accident the warn ing lights upon the gate were not lighted. He was subjected to a grill ing cross examination, but stuck to his story.
 Hunt was driving an automobile the evening of December IS, 1916, and crashed through the gates of the Yellow Mill bridge, striking the gate tender, Marx, breaking both legs. Marx fingered for about 10 days at the hospital, and died, pneumonia de- veloping. His administratrix, Mazda lene Marx, is suing Hunt for damages of S10,000.
 Marx, as an employe of the city, was entitled to compensation under the law, and the city of Bridgeport is a party plaintiff in the suit, City At torney Judge W. H. Comley, Jr., look ing after it's interests.
 The trial was started yesterday af- teTnoon before Judge William H. Maltbie and jury, and much of the testimony for the claimant was medi- cal. Most of the facts in the acci- dent are admitted, but it is contend ed the accident was not the cause of death. The plaintiff claims that the injury was the direct cause of infec- ton, which resulted in the death from pneumonia.
 Among the witnesses were Dr. W. J. A. O'Hara, Dr. De Lucas, pathol- ogist, who testified to blood tests.
