Just about all the real workers in The Patriots subscription building and prize campaign are making 8 good record on the 100000 Extra Point offer for si5 clubs of subscrip- tons turned in up to p. n. this Fri day) evening and most of them are already set to go to work in earnest on the new Extra Point offer explained a detail below All real workers real ize that the more subscriptions they get while the big Extra Point offers are on, the better will be their chance of winning an automobile.
 And a remarkable feature of the campaign so far. and which is prac- tieslly only in its infancy. is the fact that so few of those who really got started are dropping out, and that so many are keeping so close together. The leaders are all closely punched and no one seems to have gained much of advantage to date. l. is just about as difficult to predict who will be the winners of that Buick Six and the Chevrolet touring. or any one of the five other big prizes, now as 1t was when the campaign first began.
 This weeks published standings, shown below. as compared with that of Last week. shows that many new candidates have overtaken the former leaders. This proves eonclusively that no candidate has a lead that cannot be overcome, by even new entry, with little diligent effort on their part. Tn fact, a pew entry in the race now could forge to the front in very short time if they would set to work.

ERANCE'S conception Of her needs
In the way Of defensive navy
and the firmness with which her dele
gates upheld their position brought
about complete deadlock In the
Washington conference last week and
made II almost certain that no agree
ment will be reached by the present
gathering concerning the reduction
and limitation of submarines and aux
iliary naval tonnage. The other pow
ers participating in the conference
were willing to cOncede the fairness
Of the French position concerning the
reduction of her land armament, but
they feel that In this naval matter
France is demanding too much.
Albert Sarraut. having received
fresh instructions from Paris, told
the naval committee that France ac-
cepted the allowance Of 175,OOO tons
of capital ships, contingent upon per-
mission to begin replacement building
In 1927 instead of 1881, but Insisted
that she be allowed 10000 tons of
submersibles and 10000 tons Of aux
iliary ships. The submarine tonnage
he asked is equal to the maximum
proposed by Mr.. Hughes for Great
Britain and the United States and
three times what France now has.
Mr.. Balfour, In language as plain
as diplomatic usage permits, retorted
that France could want such subma-
rine fleet for no other purpose than
Illegal use against commerce, that the
plan was direct threat against
Great Britain, and that I'm the circum-
stances the British would agree to no
limitation In the building Of cruisers,
destroyers and other anti-submarine
vessels. To NJ Sarraut's assertion
that British fears of French aggres-
sion were baseless since Britain was
allowed capital ship tonnage greater
than that of France and Italy com
bined, Mr.. Balfour replied that, In the
event OF war between Great Britain
and France, England, having no large
army, could not strike at the heart OF
France, but France. employing a great
navy of submarines against commerce,
could destroy the "very existence" Of
Britain. To the layman II would seem
that Mr.. Balfour had the best Of the
debate. but NJ Sarraut was unyield-
Ing. Therefore Mr.. Hughes, deploring
the attitude of the French, an
nounced with regret that an agree
ment on the reduction and limitation
Of submarine and auxiliary tonnage
appeared impossible.
nESPlTE this. the naval committee
~ reached other agreements of
great importance which II was as
sumed the conference would confirm
In its next plenary session. One OF
these limits the caliber OF capital
ship guns to 10 inches. Another was
that the use OF submarines against
commerce he barred. The latter IN

The Washington conference win
soon be a thing Of the past. The
members are now leaving for home.
Regardless Of the disagreements, the
representatives, as they leave, pro-
nounce the meeting a success and one
that marks progress. 1t is probable
that the submarine question will have
to be postponed to a later time.
This may not, however, be altogether
a bad thing. II became apparent
that small nations as well as the
large ones were concerned in this and
1t may lead to another meeting which
will bring together more nations in
conference. At least it will give an
excuse for such gathering at a date
not far distant.

The American Secretary of Labor,
James J. Davis, has made an inter-
asting suggestion in regard to immi-
grafton. According to this plan for
eigners would not be excluded be-
cause of inability to read or write,
but they would be provided with an
education by the Federal Govern
ment. The fund to carry this on
would be secured by having all aliens
register and pay fee of from SO to
$40. 1t has been estimated that this
would provide enough to make the
plan feasible. Mr.. Davis, as head of
the Department of Labor, has over
sight of the immigration system.
The suggestion has not met much ap-
proval, but there are some good
points that deserve consideration.
Mr.. Davis is of Welsh descent and
his own father would have been ex-
cluded under the present law.
