Army and Navy Experts Report That
Wireless Control IL
Possible.

WashingtOn.-Army and navy ex-
perts have reported the device of John
Hays Hammond, Jr., for radio control
of surface craft to be sent laden with
explosives against enemy ships a sue
cess, and predict similar results with
submerged craft showing above water
only wireless antennae.
Results of tests were made public
In connection with the new fortifca-
lions appropriation bill, which carries
$475,0O0 for construction of an exper-
mental submerged boat.
Secretary Baker wrote the house
appropriations committee. which is
considering the bill, that the joint
army and navy board was convinced
of the practicability Of the control" Of
the surface craft, and added that there
had also been demonstrations OF the
possibility Of the control OF a craft
completely submerged except for an
air intake pipe.
Before finally deciding on the pur-
chase Of the patents for $4,000 the
board desires further experiment with
the submerged craft.
Construction OF the submerged
craft, which will be about so feet
long by feet in diameter, will take
two years, according to Mr.. Hammond.

ten years and 100000 on his inven-

Our Wonderful LANGUAGE.

A certain merchant died, leaving to
his only son the conduct of his extern
sive business, and great doubt was ex-
pressed in some quarters whether the
young man possessed the ability to car
~ out the fathers policies. "Well,"
said one kindly disposed friend, "for
my part, 1 think Henry is very bright
and capable. I'm sure he will succeed"
perhaps you're right" said another
friend. "Henry is undoubtedly a clev-
er fellow, but, take it from me, old
man, he hasn't got the head to I'LL his

Last evening the seniors of the
high school were entertained at a
splash party given at Silver Springs
by the sophomore class. Both classes
left town about $3.50, the merry party
going to the springs in cars. AS soon
as the party arrived there, bathing
was the order of the day and most
enjoyable time followed while the
young folks frollicked and played in
the invigorating waters of the
springs. The long table upon which
supper was served was placed in the
pavilion. Over the table hung the
letters o. H. S. in the class colors,
gold and green, and in, the center of
the table in the same colors were the
numerals 1919" designating the SEN
Tor class, and from which radiated
streamers of the class colors. The
POSTMASTER of the sophomore class
offered a toast to the seniors. which
was answered most graciously by the
seniors. Then followed several others
to the freshmen and juniors, which
were duly answered. This was a de-
l1ghtful beginning to the delicious
supper of chicken salad, varieties OF
sandwiches, ice cream and cake, which
was enjoyed. Later in the evening
the tables were cleared away and
dancing was enjoyed. This party Civ
en- by the sophomores will long be re-
membered by the seniors, as one OF
the happiest events of their school
pleasures long after the seniors are
nc longer seniors in the D. H. S.

ENEMY TRADING ACT
REPEAL Is SOUGHT
Wilson to Be Asked to Drop
Bar That flinders
Business.
Special pespatcA 70 Tnr suY.


WASHINGTON, June 2S.-with the
peace treaty now signed there is q
strong movement throughout the coun-
try in favor Of resuming commercial re-
lations along pre-war lines.
The State Department already Is be-
ing bombarded with inquiries and the
Senate Is understood to be ready to de-
nand that American trade be not handi-
capped by the fact that there must
necessarily be some delay before ratifi-
cation. Tho point will be made that the
sigping OF the treaty has brought peace
SO far as the signing Of any paper can
bring Il and that the recuperation Of
impoverished Europe will be helped and
not retarded by speedy and practical ac-
ton by the Government of the United
States
As a practical step toward restoring
commercial relations President Wilson
IS going to be asked to repeal the trad
ing with the enemy act without delay.
BY pressing this point Senators are said
to believe that they can at once bring
down the bars so far as American trade
Is concerned without awaiting formal
ratification.
The Presidents position on this score
IL not known. but there is keen interest
In the stand he will take, because II he
..epeals the act and let's down the bars
he will be removing one of the clubs
he holds over the Senate. but II he de-
sists he will admittedly be placed in the
embarrassing position OF being responsi-
Bile for the loss of millions to American
trade. 1t II furthermore contended by
taepublicans that the President cannot
assume that the treaty IL not going to
be ratified and that therefore he should
broffer aid to American trade by taking
action without awaiting the formality of
ratification.
The State Department on its own in
itiative already Ii removing all possible
restrictions to American business houses
In the matter OF passports, &C. Agents
are being allowed to 60 to Europe. and
even to Germany. IL they have valid
reasons. A small army Of American
business men has already left, and 1t Is
understood now to be in neutral coun-
tries contiguous to Germany. It Is an
nounced that all facilities are to be ex-
tended to American business men to
resume trade.
The signing Of the peace pact Is re.
sarded as putting the world on peace
basis except insofar as Russia Is con.
cerned. This Is still the big unsolved
problem. and leaves approximately one
sixth Of the world at war despite the
signing OF the treaty. BY analysis Of
| the situation in other countries the de.
duction might easily be reached that
there Is a series of wars now going on
| but officials do not take cognizance Of
this. They say that with peace restored
| in Russia the world to all intents and
purposes win be on a normal peace foot
ing again.
