U-BOATS HAVE NEW FOE.
Improved Methods Of Defense
Decreased Sinkings of
Last Week.

Washington. April 5.-Ncw methods
of offence for destroying enemy sub
marines have been employed lately by
the Allies and the American naval forces
promising excellent results, it was learned
yesterday. The reduction in the sink
ings caused by submarines last week was
not attributed to the new devices and
methods, but il WAS believed they had
something to do with the decrease of
losses.
In Entente circles il is said that opti-
msln based on a single weeks returns
has not always been well founded, as
sometimes the reduced sinkrngs have been
caused by the return OF the submarines
to their bases to refit. There is increased
confidence here, however, that the mer-
chant shipping situation as it relates to
destruction by submarines will improve,
although there is still laid the very great
est emphasis upon the Importance of
Americas increasing her output of new
tonnage

600 for tho support of sick and super

will endeavor to raise So, 900 annually
toward Sl,0OO,000 fund for the ma
tIonal forward movement, and the Meth
odist Episcopal Church South practically

tion of the northern and southern churches

The great strides which have been

bers of that body at its sessions yesterday
In the broadway Church The duplex
envelope system and the every-mem-
Der canvass plan under which the con-
ference has been operating for several
years was declared to have been produc-
tive of remarkable results.
The Maryland Conference, at the
request of the General Conference of
the Methodist Protestant Church, will
raise So, 900 each year, part of its
forward movement pledge, for the various
boards and educational institutions of
the denomination Its further goal will
be to increase its church membership
by 25 per cent and the subscriptions to
the church paper, the Methodist Prot
estant, to be increased the same percent
age, the goal of the national forward
movement plan being 100000.
At their own request the conference
yesterday granted the superannuated
relations to Rev. A. A. Harryman and
Rev c. f.. Mccullough. Rev. George
A. Morris, pastor of the church at Sails
bury, Md, asked 10 be left without an

very solemnly call the attention of the
Government of Germany to the Ian
guage and plain intent of one of the
terms of peace which the German Gov
eminent has now accepted. 1t is con,
tanned in the address of the President
delivered at Mount Vernon on July
last 1t is as follow:
"'The destruction of every ar
bitrary power anywhere that can
separately, secretly and of it's sin
gle choice disturb the peace of the
world; or, if it cannot be presently
destroyed, at least its reduction to
virtual impotency.'
"The power which has hitherto con-
trolled the German nation is of the
sort here described 1t is within the
choice Of the German nation to alter it,
The Presidents words just quoted nat
urally constitute condition precedent
to peace, if peace is to come by the
action of the German people them
selves. The President feels bound to
say that the whole process of peace
will, in his judgment, depend upon the
definiteness and the satisfactory char
acter of the guarantee which can be
given in this fundamental matter. 1t
is indispensable that the governments
associated against Germany should
know beyond a peradventure with
whom they are dealing.

reply to the royal and Imperial Govern
ment of Austria-Hungary.
Accept, sir, the renewed assurance
of my high consideration.

NO LET UP IN THE WAR
America Will Continue To Send 2so,-
600 Men To France Each Month,
And No Effort For Victory
Will Be Relaxed.

Washington, D. C.-President Will
son has fatty and finally rejected the
peace overtures of the German Chan
cellor. He has announced to Germany
and to the world that no peace can be
made with the HohenZollern regime,
and that not even truce in the fight
ing will be considered as long as the
armed forces. of Germany continue
the illegal and inhuman practices
which they still persist in"
This decision was reached by the
President within a few hours from the
time the official text of the second
German note was laid before him, a
note which, on its face, accepted every
demand which the President had
voiced, but which in reality was a
colossal hoax conceived in the des-
perate hope of saving to the German
Emperor his throne.

that the new program calls for 1890
new guns for the increased artillery.
The Neville Island ordnance plant,
near Pittsburgh, for constructing a.,
16 and 18-inch guns, will be increased,
he said, so that it will provide fer
the entire Coast Artillery needs, as
also a part of the Nays demands.
The output of ammunition at the
plant will begin in December, next

in 1920.
This is a measure providing for
