simply the setting aside of one impor-

crease In submarine activity recently.
During the summer" he said, the
U-boats have displayed considerably less
activity This is partly due to the bet
ter possibilities o. employing air craft
against them. The very fact that the
U-boat comma nders know ships are con-
voyed by seaplanes has big tendency
to force them to keep their distance.
The presence of the seaplanes prevents
many attempts to launch torpedoes."
Sir Eric Geddes said to-day the NUM-
ber OF enemy submarines is fewer now
than at any time this summer, owing to
the increasing effectiveness of new
methods of huntins and destroying them.

n
bring the President to the rescue OF the
anti prohibitionists by seeking from him
suggestion that all necessary legisla-
tion imperative. to the Government in
the war emergency has been enacted
With such a statement the legislators
opposed to prohibition could return TO
their home States with an excuse that
the President did not consider the pres
ent enactment of a war time bone dry
law as essential. A conference may
take place at the White House to-mor-
row on the legislative situation and
the anti-prohibitionists are plainly hop
ing that something may develop to de-
feat the bone dry proposal.
THE prohibition amendment to the
food bill is still the unfinished business
OF the Senate. Consideration cannot be
refused It except by a majority vote,
and once the wire control proposition is
out OF the way it stands in the way or
recess, adjournment or the constdera-
ton of any other business. The dry
leaders are fully alive to the plans OF
the opposition. They have taken care
to impress fully on their opponents

Until prohibition is disposed OF.
Vote No Indicator.
The vote in the Senate yesterday by
which the Penrose point of order against
the inclusion of the bone dry amend
| ment in the food bill was set aside by
nc means measures the prohibition
strength in the Senate. No less than
ten OF the Senators who voted to sus-
tain the point of order will when the
issue is drawn vote for prohibition.
Even among some of the closer ad-
herents of the Administration are men
who cannot afford to oppose prohibition
once IT is before the Senate for fear of
unfavorable action by their consttu-
erts. For this reason unless the pro-
posed interposition Of the President
shall have far greater effect than the
prohibitionists at present can muster
they are assured Of the passage of the
food bill by a majority of at least 20.
