U-BOATS STILL ACTIVE OFF
 COAST, CAPITALS OPINION
British Armed Steamer Author Had All-Day Battle With Submarine-Keemun Makes Port Unda1naged After Encounter-British Commissioner Prefers Rail Journey to Risk at Sea-

Washington, June 15.-Belief In official circles here that the German submarines operating off the Atlantic coast had returned to their bases was cast aside today with the receipt of reports of renewed activity.
 The navy department had advices saying that the British steamer Kec- nun was attacked Thursday night off the Virginia coast but succeeded in eluding the submersible and yester- day passed through the Virginia Capes to safety. Further details were being awaited
 The captain of the British armed steamer Author, arriving at an At lantic port, brought the news of an all-day fight Thursday between his vessel and a submarine which did not end until the Author had reached a point 70 miles off the Virginia coast when the undersea craft turned back, fearing to brave the coast patrol.
 Officials were also interested in the report of a story from an Atlantic port that the captain of the NorWe- gian steamer Nineland declared at least one of the submarines is camou- flaged to represent a freighter. The Nineland captain was a prisoner on board the submarine for several hours following the sinking of his ship.

Road Building in Kansas.

In Kansas the Good Roads associa-
ton co-operates with the State High
way department and the Federal gov
eminent in promoting the building of
"three-hundred-sixty -fve-day" roads.
This association gets it's funds from
members and conducts campaigns of
education. ~I
AS one result eighteen counties in
Kansas have arranged to finance this
year five hundred miles of hard roads.
It is expected that thousand miles
more will be financed this year. The
counties reporting, and the kind of
roads to be built, are given to show
what is being done in one state:
= Barton county, thirty miles of brick ;
Bourbon, one hundred and fifty miles
of macadam; Cloud, twenty seven
miles Of brick and concrete; Cherokee,
twenty-five miles of gravel; Douglas,
20 miles of concrete; Dickinson, five
miles of concrete, fifteen miles of
gravel; Linn, thirty miles macadam;
Mitchell, twelve miles Of concrete;
Leavenworth, twenty-five miles con-
crete; Sedgwick, eight miles concrete;
Wilson, seventy-ive miles concrete;
Sedgwick, eight miles concrete; Will
son, seventy-fve miles gravel; Labette,
forty three and one-half miles con-
crete; Shawnee, ten miles concrete;
Gray, six miles brick; Ford, eleven
miles brick; Rice, five miles brick.
This is fine showing for the first
year of the association. AS Kansas
has several thousand freight trucks
and hundred and sixty-fve thousand
automobiles, or one to every ten per-
sons, the work is of no small moment
to owners of vehicles. .. ...
If these cars, which represent about
a hundred and thirty-two million dol
lars, can be kept out Of the mud, it is
figured that each car-owner will easily
save seventy dollars a year on upkeep
and depreciation accounts. Such a
sum as this would build hundred
miles of real road in every county of
the state. The last legislature gave
Kansas an excellent road law with
liberal provisions, and the state is TAX
ing advantage of Minneapolis

HOover's Appeal to Farmers.

"1n order that we may comply with
the: urgent demands Of the allies for
wheat and at the same time take care
of our own domestic supply we urg-
emily need this year an earlier and
more complete marketing Of the
wheat in the farmers hands than
usual. The allies are taking from us
SO per cent Of cereals other than wheat
to mix in their bread. Inasmuch as
the people in the allied countries and
the soldiers must be fed with bread
baked in bakeries it is impossible for
them to prepare bread made wholly
with all other cereals. I, therefore,
appeal to all the farmers in the state
of Minnesota that they shall bring all
of their wheat except their necessary
reserve for seed to market before May

Farmers Are Asked to Hurry.

The following official statement,
warning farmers to hurry action in
placing employees in the deferred draft
class has been issued by the United
States employment service:
A new draft of about 100000 men
shortly will be called to the colors.
The provost marshal general has or
dered that men actively, assiduously,
and completely engaged in the plant
ing or cultivation Of crops but who
are listed in cless 1 of the draft and
within the new quota should be de-
ferred until the end Of the new quota.
The local draft boards being ju-
dicial bodies, can not defer the call Of
such men, however, unless the farmers
employing them support their claims
for such deferred classification with
affidivits. It is therefore of vital i'm
portance that farmers Immediately ex-
ecute and file such afidavits with the
local boards. rU
If farmers whose hands are affected
in this new call fail to follow this 'ad-
vice they should have no cause for
complaint if their men are taken from
them at this critical time. 1t will be
useless and unreasonable later to pro-
test if they have done nothing to re-
tain their help. Immediate action on
the part of every farmer whose en-
ployes are affected is essential and
should not be delayed under any cir
cumstances.

Her Tribute to Our Bows.

In one Of the recent German air
raids on Paris, Miss Winona C. Martin,
y. M. G. A. worker, was killed. Her
home was in Rockville Center, N. Y.
In letter to friend there she de-
scribed her trip across the Atlantic,
and paid high tribute to the $50
sailor boys who crossed over in the
ship with her:
A French woman had been watching
me for some time with somewhat
puzzled expression on her face. I had
been helping some Of the sailors with
their songs and giving two sick boys
some medicine out Of my case. Pres
emily she came up to me and inquired
politely: pardon me, Mademoiselle,
but I am not familiar with your Amer
lean customs. Will you tell me if you
are in charge Of these sailors?" You
should have heard the boys laugh when
I translated.
The $50 sailors are the finest, clean
est, healthiest, most courteous and
chivalrous lot of young men I ever
saw. They make one proud of our
American manhood. Just to look over
a room where they are assembled
causes one to feel that our cause is
just and must prevail. And their
treatment of the very few women on
board is splendid. The fact that most
of us are going over for the express
purpose Of doing something for
them seems to affect them strange
ly. In turn there seems to be nothing
too good for us; and this is as true Of
the boy without education and culture
as it is of the college graduate. In
that respect they are all alike"
