New Weapons

Washington, ID. c. Dec. 1.-(By The

ing with submarinesti land armament,
aircraft and new weapons of warfare,
including poison gases were adopted
today by the American arms advisory
committee.
Prepared by experts at tho request

mittees of twenty-one stood solidly
behind the American naval proposal.
Adoption today by the American ad-
visory committee of report on sub
marine warfare prepared by Admiral

ficers as to the legitimates phase of sub
marines among naval weapons.
The navy generally holds that un-
derwater craft are u desirable addition
to the fleet and no more subject to
mususe than battleships. 1t Is be-
lieved the committee which Is rep
resentative of America public opinion
indorses this view: Illegal use of sub
marines naturally. 1t is said would be
condemned by both naval officers and
civilians.

NAVAL HOLIDAY WOULD
AFFECT many CRAFTS
Many shipyards Now Sup
ported BY Work
of Navy

Washington, d. c., Dec. 1.-(By The
Associated Press)-The report adopted
yesterday by the American advisory
committee on the economic and indus
trial questions involved in the pro-
posed ten year naval holiday was un-
derstood tonight to indicate it is near
ly impossible to calculate it's effect in
tangible factors.
The committee concurred in conclu-
sions presented by Rear Admiral
Rodgers of the general board. The re-
port presented today to Secretary
Hughes deals chiefly with the Ameri-
can aspect. Admiral Rodgers is under
stood to have discussed the effect of
the sudden stopping of government
work in shipbuilding and armor
plants.
Major commercial yards now are
practically supported by naval work.
The report is said to have stated 1t
was difficult to figure how they might
fare and the industrial changes In the
communities where they are located,
IL the building of war craft should be
halted ten years.
1t was pointed out that the effect
on labor would cause restlesSness and
it was urged that some concerted ef-
fort should be made to shift the Idle
workers into other remunerative lines
The report is also understood to
have pointed out the pnasc affecting
the naval organization. With the reg
ular process of developing new ships
abandoned, 1t was said that the
morale Of the organization retained
would be adversely affected. In a
word, 1t was held that the navy would
cease to be a going concern when con-
fined to old ships and repair work that
the end of the ten year period would
find 1t behind its present high mark
OF efficiensy as to personnel.

have among themselves. The best
judges in America believe that II the
reparation question were once settled
right, these international debts could
be handled comfortably. and that there
does not need TO be any cancellation
by the United States of the principal
of these debts, except as regards some
of the minor ones. But 1t Is also be-
lieved that 1t will probably be neces-
sary for us not to exact any interest.
or at least to fix the interest at
more or less nominal rate for few
years.
With these two questions of repara-
tions and international debts fxed

ment.

UL-SMELLlNG GAS

 ment of Agriculture
 Many seeds. especially beans, corn, and lettuce. are subject to injury by q number of insects, all of which may be destroyed by Immigration with car bon disulphid, say experts of the United States Department of Agricul- ture. Carbon disulphid is a liquid that can be purchased in tin cans at any drug store. When poured into a dish it evaporates rapidly. producing a foul-smelling gas that is heavier than air. Therefore, in fumigating seeds. to kill insects attacking them it is necessary to place the carbon disulphid on top of the seeds in order that the gas may sink into them and reach every part of the container. A tight tin pail. box. or barrel makes an excellent container for fumigating seeds. For tight barrel full of seeds one-half cupful of carbon disulphid is sufficient. For smaller containers. use in proportion.
 Seeds to be fumigated must be dry and if they are in paper bags, the bags should be opened. The gas penetrates cloth bags easily. The liquid may be placed in any shallow dish. such as saucer or plate. or merely poured on the seeds. The liquid will not injure the seeds If poured directly upon them. Immediately after starting the funiga ton the container should be covered with several thicknesses of heavy paper. or other tight cover. and al lowed to remain covered from one to two days. A longer fumigation in tin pails Is apt to injure the germinating power of the seeds

Thousands of Victims Have Recovered, According to Data Collected by

The symphony of droning mowers cultivators and threshers Is a specific cure for shellshock. Of the thousands of World wnr veterans who turned to az riculture at the termination of hos tilities, virtually all have recovered from the effects of shellshock. This is shown by recent survey which Is be- ing studied by the national organiza- tion of the American Legion.

 The experiment of sending shell shock cases to the farms was tried with success in Canada, where more than 25,000 soldiers have taken farms under the soldiers establishment act. The government has loaned more than $110.O00.0O0 to these men, and their first years crop was valued at approximately $14.000,O00.
