Geddes Warns of
New U-Boat Drive

New York, Oct. 16.-Sir Eric Ged-
des, First Lord of the British Admir-
atty, was the guest of honor at the
dinner of the Pilgrims Society in the
Ritz-Carlton Monday night. In his
address he said the German subma-
rines were more numerous to-day
than at any period of the war; that
they were being built faster than
ever before and that they constituted
the greatest menace now confront
ing the Allies.
He said frankly that his purpose
in making the address was to appeal
to America to hasten the production
of destroyers and antisubmarine
craft, and that he would be doing an
unprecedented thing in thus address,
ing the people of another nation, ex-
cept for the fact that he did so with
the full consent and concurrence of
Secretary of the Navy Daniels, with
whom he was in complete accord as
to the gravity of the outlook on the
sea.
Destruction by submarines, he
said, is not now great, compared to
some periods of their activity, and
the records of the last month show
falling off, but he said it was
known that the submarines were
greater than ever before, and a big
German effort by undersea craft was
to be looked for.
The reason why the submarines,
which some months ago had been
we'll in hand, had been able to
grow again into a serious danger
was. he said, the fact that so much
of the destroyer and antisub fleet
was engaged in conveying American
troopships.

Mr.. Niesley says: The wartime
strain upon our grain supply has very
forcibly demonstrated the probability
or certain very definite methods in
swine feeding. Corn ranks first as
feed for hogs but the high market
price OF corn as well as mill feeds
strongly encourages method of
feeding. which will ease up on the
grain bill. More pork is needed but
it would be unwise to make a drive

WILSON ANSWER
SATISFIES THE
MEN IN BATTLE,
Americans on War Front Sure
Germany's Proposals
Are Insincere

With the American Army North
west of Nerdun, Oct 16.-Perhaps
the most interesting development of
yesterdays fighting was the fact that
the Americans, and the Germans
too, fought with fierceness, stub
bornness and tenacity utterly belying
any belief that their part in peace
is matter of the near future. The
Americans are almost unanimous in
their belief that the German pro-
posals are insincere, and that
whether sincere or not the enemy
must be severely punished. Many
with whom the correspondent talked
during tour of the most active por-
tions of the front, seemed to take
the attitude that perhaps they had
only little time in which to strafe
the enemy and wanted to make the
most of it.
President Wilson's answer to the
Germans was greeted unanimously
by the men as a document of su-
preme craftsmanship. completely fill
ling the bill and imposing on the
Germans the humiliation and alb
negation absolutely necessary. 1t
served, however, to increase the
doubts whether the enemy will in
the last analysis back down COM
pletely, and to steel everyone to
fight on indefinitely and impose upon
Germany absolute defeat.
Despite the rain which streamed
down all day from low hanging
clouds, the American aviation corps
again performed wonderful work in
assisting the infantry. flying con-
stantly at an altitude below coo
meters. The aviators efficiently
directed battery work, made recon-
naissances, kept the infantry in
liaison with headquarters and
brought in valuable information.

CITY'S TAX INCREASED
ON BOND ISSUES

Because a number of banks which
had been holding city loan bonds have
sold these securities to private indi-
viduals and no longer pay tax on
them, the city has been required to
pay an increased amount as state
taxes on outstanding bonds. Commits
sioner c. w. BURNETT announced to-
day to his colleagues in Council. Ac-
cording to Commissioner Burtnett the
city paid about 81 500 as state tax on
bonds last year, and banks holding
then. however. a large nummber of
the city bonds have been sold by the
institutions and this year the city was
required to pay about $1,000 as state

Lebanon Soldier Learns
to Swim; Escapes Death
When Otranto Goes Down

Island of Islay, Scotland, Oct. 16.
A British army labor battalion
has begun to remove the Otranto
wreckase, piled in enormous masses
in many deep gulleys on this savage
shore. Only by much laborious and
systematic work can the bodies
believed to be buried under the
wreckage be recovered and it pos
sibly may be several weeks before
the task is completed. Other bod
les are imprisoned in rocky inlets
and great beds of kelp, or tangle-
weed. as the islanders term it.
Private Robert f Shawd, of
Lebanon, Pa, had a remarkable eX-
perience. According to Shawd two
of his brothers were on the Tus-
vania and both were saved. They
wrote urging him to learn to swim
IF I had not taken their advice" ="
Shawd said, Il would not be alive
to-day" He tried to jump from
the Otranto to the destroyer but fell
into the sea Eventually he was
thrown up on Islay.
The storm that ragged at the time
of the loss of the Otranto was so
terrific that wreckage was carried
by huge waves over the cliffs quar-
ter of a mile inland. 1t is regarded
as a miracle that anyone escaped,
yet with one or two exceptions the
twenty survivors who reached Islay
showed little effects of their fearful
ordeal

pounds; tank~ge, 100 pounds.
One hundred and fifty pounds OF

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC
Spanish influenza, which appeared
in Spain in May. has all the appear
ance of grip or la grippe, which has
swept over the world in numerous
epidemics as far back as history
runs. Hippocrates refers TO an cpl
demic in 412 b. c. which is regarded
by many TO have been Influenza.
Every century has had its attacks.
Beginning with 1881. this country
has had five epidemics, the last in
1SS9-90.
There is no occasion for panic
influenza itself has a very low per-
centage of fatalities-not over one
death out of every four hundred
cases, according to the n. C. Board
OF Health. The chief danger lies in
complications arising, attacking prin-
cipally, patients in run down con-
dition-those who don't go to bed
soon enough, or those who get up
100 early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grippe, or influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with a chill
followed by aching. feverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and
a general feeling of weakness and
depression. The temperature Is
from 100 to 104, and the fever
usually lasts from three to five days.
The germs attack the mucuous men,
brane, or lining of the air passages
nose, throat and bronchial tubes
there is usually a hard cough,
especially bad at night. often times
a sore throat or tonsilitis, and fire.
quently all the appearances of a
severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms,
not only for your own sake but to
avoid spreading the disease to
others-take a purgative. eat plenty
of nourshing food, remain perfectly
quiet and don't worry. Quinine,
ASPIRIN or Dover's Powder, ETC.. may
be administered by the physicians
directions to relieve the aching.
But there is no cure or specific for
ynnunsa--the disease must run it's
lBosse. Nature will throw off the
@4HtACR Il only you keep up your
strength. The chief danger lies
in the complications which may
arise. Influenza so weakens the
bodily resistance that there is dan
ger of pneumonia or bronchitis de-
veloping, and sometimes inflamma-
ton of the middle ear, or heart
affections. For these reasons. it Is
very important that the patient
remain in bed until his strength
returns-stay in bed at least two
days or more after the fever has
left you, or if you are over so or
not strong, stay in bed four days
or more. according to the severity of
tse attack.
