THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND, SEPTE3IBER 28, 1919. 21 SUBMARINE'S FOES SEEM LOSING FIGHT Abolition of Undersea Craft Is Held Unlikely. are believed to be on board the ves sel and she is being thoroughly plumbed and searched. One of the men arrested wriggled loose and tried to make his escape, but was caught by policemen. Still protesting, the men were booked on a charge of violating the liquor or dinance. They are believed by the police to be members of an organ ized gang that has been running the dry squad patrol along the water front with California liquor. SMALL NATIONS FAVOR Defensive Qualities Make This Type of Craft a Weapon of Much Vsc fulness. WASHINGTON. Abolition of the submarine as an instrument of mod ern warfare does not seem probable ; to American naval officers who have ; riven careful study to the arguments , put forth before allied naval com- j missions investigating the subject. It is the belief of these officers that submarines will become more and more numerous in the principal navies of the world during the next few years. In reviewing the deliberations of the allied commissions on naval terms American officials find that while many pertinent arguments were de veloped against the use of subma rines, many strong points also were advanced in their favor. The prin cipal argument for abolition was that as long as the submarines were rec ognized as legitimate instruments of warfare there would remain the dan ger of some nation repeating the ruthless and inhuman campaign in augurated by Germany. Advocates of the submarine, however do not believe such past inhumanities should be the determining factor in deciding whether the submarine should be abolished. The naval factions .both in this country and abroad opposed to the abolition of the submarine believe that the factor of possible merciless ness of the undersea craft should not be separated from the equal and pos sibly worse horrors of gas warfare, bombing from the air and mines. The parallel between the submarine and the marine mine seems close, par ticularly since the mine is now and has for many years been recognized by all nations as a legitimate instru ment of war. Figures gathered by the British during the war show that the losses to British merchant ship ping through mines amounted to 6,:i77.000 tons, compared with 5,739, 000 tons sunk by submarines. The argument has been advanced that despite the fact that the best inventive genius of several nations worked on the problem of devising means to wipe the submarine out of existence, the sub-surface craft re mains the only long-radius vessel that alone and unsupported, can go nearly anywhere and. entirely de fensive qualities make it a naval weapon of the utmost usefulness eve'n when restricted in its use against merchant shipping. At the worst. naval strategists point out. it is never a liability that must be protected and defended. It is admitted among naval men that the big ship still rules the seas. How long this will be true is the question now taxing the best naval brains of the world. It is conceded, for the present at least, that the nation that holds blindly to one line of naval development and neglects another, particularly the submarine, will be In great ultimate danger. While the nations having the strongest navies have throughout the peace deliberations shown a dis position to agree to the abolition of the submarine, the smaller and weaker nations maintain that, hav ing less powerful navies they are forced to cling to the more powerful instruments of protection and of fense and that, therefore, they must retain the submarine as a matter of eelf-preservation. $100,000 SALE IS MADE ; Large Cash Realty Deal Buys Washington Street Quarter. One of the biggest recent cash deals in Portland real estate occurred Fri day when Thomas Hendricksen and David Pahra, proprietors of the pa cific Tent & Awning company, com pleted the purchase of the quarter block on the southwest corner of Fifteenth and Washington streets.

Fea tures Have Bad Kffect. SALEM. Or.. Sept. 27. (Special.) The Pendleton round-up Friday was given a hard slap in resolutions adopted by the Oregon Pure-Bred Livestock association. The resolu tions deplore the practice of some fairs of the north Pacific coast In allowing round-up features among the concessions and a committee was appointed to urge directors of the fair circuit to eliminate them.

Dismissal of Russell Hancock Miles as an instruc tor in the Elwood public school. Oak Lane avenue and Twelfth street, on the charge of insubordination by the board of education, was occasioned, according to C.

Mr. Miles, junior, is a musician and a member of the American Organ Players' club. Mr. Miles, senior, said yesterday that his son remonstrated with Mrs. Elizabeth B.

"Mrs. Pendlebury replied, 'Not all the children of Oak Lane are well bred.' '"So much more the reason why they should not be taught this song,' my son rejoined. According to Mr. Miles, ragtime is introduced into the public schools by music dealers. "I am Informed." he said, "that music dealers send the principals of the schools sample copies of songs. Later the music dealer calls up the principal and asks if he can not sup ply the school with, say. 500 copies. And the unsuspecting principal con sents." The dismissal of his son, Mr. Miles asserted, was agreed upon at a meet ing of the honrd of education's com mittee on elementary schools May 7, notwithstanding that r.t the same mtin9 th crtmmtttA .Rlired Mr. Miles, junior, that if he wrote a let-' ter of apology he would be allowed to retain his position.

He answered that he was and we left the meeting with the understanding that upon the presentation of the letter the mater would be setled. But within a few minutes after we left, behind closed doors, the committe changed its de cision.
