When the order was first issued
there were those who urged that dark

but throughout the country, that
there has been a decrease of crime,
and this is particularly true where
the fuel administrators ordered six
"lightless nights a week instead of
two.

Members of the state council of ma

of agriculture and the defense council
will undertake the placing of loans
aid. Under the order as announced
from Washington, maximum of $500
will be allowed individual farmers.
The sum IS inadequate for the large
growers, and Governor Capper. Sec

the submarine which nix the Lusi-

admitted by the German admiralty,
according to reports received here.
Last September Schwieger in COM

of Helgoland with another submarine.
The U-boats submerged and the other
commander felt "a chain sweeping
along he side of his boat and be-
lieved he had run into. an unkno IN

sion under water ollowed. The Sec

the other. There was no reply. A
vain watch was kept for the U-sS and

There is little doubt, the reports say,
that she sank
