WORLD GAINING
ON U-B0ATS
First Lord OF British Admiralty
Gives Review of Naval
Situation.
SEESTORRENT FROM AMERICA
Greater Production Of Vessels and
Sea Warfare Beat the Submarine
Gain 1oO 900 Tons
Month.

London, Aug 1-Sir Eric Geddes,
first lord Of the British admiralty, gave
the house Of commons review of
the naval situation, ana particularly
defended the policy Of starting nation
al Shipbuilling yards in discussing
the Shipbuildiug program in connection
with the navy estimates.
The first lord compared the situation
today regarding tonnage with that
of year ago. Then the net loss
in tonnage, he said. was 10000 gross
tons monthly. Submarines then We're
not being destroyed as fast as the
Germans were building them, while
the merchant shipyards were short Of
men and material Four hundred
thousand tons net loss monthly was
the British deficit Every yard that
could take naval work had been put
on naval building.
Gradually during the last year, Sir
Eric continued, the position had
changed in many directions. Instead
OF losing tonnage the worlds net re-
suit in the last quarter had been q
gain roughly of 100000 tons a month.
The allied and neutral world was as
we'll off on June 30 as on January l,
1913. This result, he declared, had
been obtained by reduced snkings and
Increased buildings.
The reduced sinking had been ar
rived at. said the first lord of the al
miralty, by a greater productive craft
Of an antisubrlarine character. Moth
ing was included of Communicated or
acquired tonnage in this result.
The shipbuilding advisory commit
tee had just adopted standard ship,
which should be built the old way,
with the proportion of one skilled to
four or six unskilled men in its con-
structiOn.
"America'S program is now begin
ming to come along, and | have had the
pleasure of considering it with Mr..
Roosevelt. My conference with him
has confirmed what ! have relied
upon-namely; that when once the
flow of destroyers and antisubmarine
craft starts from the United States
II will become a formidable torrent"

M'ADOO WARNS
RAILWAY men
Nation Expects Best Work and
No Strikes Until War
Is Won.
MUST EARN HIGHER WAGES
Calls on All Rail Employees to Do
Their Utmost and to Expose the
SIackers-No Minimum
Wage Now.

Washington, Aug. Hallway em-
ployees were told by Director General
McAdoo, in announcing details of the
wage increase Tor more than 100000
Shopmen, that the nation expected new
energy from the workers in return for
any Increases and Improvements in
conditions and Ihat strikes and other
labor disturbances must be eliminated.
In reaching the conclusions upon
which this order is based said Mr..
McAdOO, Il have been keenly conscious
not alone of the interests of the large
number of railway employees who are
greatly benefited thereby, but also of
my solemn duty to the American peO-
PIE tc see TO it that the trust they have
committed to ME is discharged faith
fully with justice to them.
NO right decision can be made
which considers only the demands and
interests of any class of men apart
from the paramount interest of the
public and the supreme necessity of
winning this war.
Now that the decision has been
made, the American people, whose SER
wants we all are, expect every rail-
road employee to devote himself with
new energy to his work, and by faith
ful and efficient service to justify the
large increases of pay and the improve
ment in working conditions hereby
granted. The American people have
q right TO expect this and they will be
content with nothing less.
at is of the utmost importance that
the output of railroad shops shall be
greatly increased. Unless this is done
the fighting power of cur armies in
France and of our navies on the seas
will be seriously impaired.
The loyal and patriotic employees
can render powerful service to their
country by exposing any who may be-
come slackcrs in their work, by CO.
operating in the enforcement of dis
cipline and by increasing to the Utmost
limit the output Of locomotives and
cars so essential TO the success of our
armies in the field. | count on the
patriotism of every true American en-
gagged in the railway service"

AN ECONOMIC PACT
RELATIONS BETWEEN v. s. AND
BRITAIN DAILY DRAWING
CLOSER TOGETHER.
THREAT BY BRITISH PREMIER
Lloyd George Tells Germany the
Longer She Refrains from Perma-
nent Peace Conditions the sterner
Will BE the Terms Applied.

Washington, ID. C.-Premier Lloyd
George tells Germany that the longer
she refuses TO recognize the tenate5
o. a permanent peace for which the
allies are fighting the "sterner viii be
the terms" imposed upon the enemy.
This Is the most important statement
which has come from allied quarters
with reference to the conditions Of
peace since President Wilson address
cd congress last December and has in
ii a wealth Of meaning Mr Lloyd
George. however, reveals what the
Germans may seize upon as weak
ness in the allied position when he
says America and Great Britain are
not yet in agreement as 10 the econ
omic power they are 10 exert for the
sake OF durable peace. II IS true
the Washington government has eX.
pressed no opinion OF late, but the
truth is the economic strength Of this
country is going to be one Of the big
gest weapons Of the war, and that the
United States and Great Britain are
daily growing closer together, so that
the day is not far off when the two
English speaking democracies will
have made a business partnership
which will mean the altruistic and
equitable distribution Of raw mate
rials for free nations.
What Germany Can Expect.
II Germany refuses TO accept the
conditions requisite to membership
in the family Of nations she will be
excluded from raw materials and
markets II she manifests in her
government and her actions spirit
of democracy that IS a firm guarantee
that the provisions Of the peace treaty
she signs will not be a scrap of paper
she will stand on the same footing
as all other nations in getting the raw
materials with which 10 sustain her
economic life.
Germany has been uneasy OF late
because OF the threats of economic
discrimination and her press has re-
fected that uneasiness But her
thoughtful statesmen have quieted the
fears OF the socialists somewhat by
saying that as long as the United
States is not committed to policy
OF economic discrimination Germany
has nothing to worry about, as the
cupdity OF the American business
man will not be swayed by sentiment.
Undoubtedly Premier Lloyd George
had that in mind when he stressed
the importance OF some statement
from America about the famous Paris
economic conference. or at least an
exposition OF American policy from
authoritative sources.
