New Submarines
for Uncle Sam
WASHINaiJON, D. C Nov. 17.
rtndlcal changes In tho type of new
submarines to. be built for Uncle
Sam's navy aro
being worked out
by the chief nav
iv 1 constructor.
Navy officials ad
mitted today that
somo new wrink
les In' submerl
bios no doubt will
be adopted when
congress author
lies the proposed
new fleet ot un
dersea craft that
will represent tbe
latest thought in
such construcgon. Especial atten
tion Is being given, Secretary Daniels
states, to tbe question ot submarine.
construction. A corps of experts, at
homo and abroad, are collecting in
formation to be assimilated In the
next new United States submarine,
Electric propulsion Is the latest In
submarines, according to tho present
ucierminaiion 01 me navai construc
tors. It Is probable that electric mo
tors may be' used exclusively la the
future. NavaC'Whorltles also con
template divesting the present fleet
of submarines of- gas engine and sub
stituting electric power.
One difficulty In the way of U. S,
mival progres In building eubmarlnej
Is tho "patent monopoly" which con
fines this government to one type of
submersible. This Is 'the Lake type.
While other types with somo most
desirable features are being built,
Secretary Daniels says are govern
ment never Aaa been able to reach
satisfactory termjrwlth .patentees ot
other nubmarlfiU tkaarUMlAka varle-
Itv. Negotiations are' In nroaress. how
ever, by which the government may
bo able to adopt aome of the mora
desirable features of other patterns,
Tho government would not be
barred from using the other sub
marine patents in case the V, S. be
came Involved In war, however, ac
cording to Secretary Daniels. He ad
mitted that the government would not
hesitate to appropriate the aubmarlne
patents and use them In building its
own submarines In time ot war. Com
pensation would be given the
patentees, ot course, or they could
resort to the courts but after the
government had received the benefit
of submersible patents. The govern
ment, according to Secretary Daniels,
would not hesitate to adopt such a
policy, as a matter of defense In a
tlmo of national peril, without re
gard to the contract and patent rights
of patentees.
Secretary Daniels hopes that con
gross win eventually autnorue con
struction by the government Itself
of nil of Its submersible. It is now
building some on tho Pacific Coast.
tbe only government plant at the pres
ent tlmo equipped for submarine con
struction. These are ot the oil burn
ing type.
"Speeding up" private contractors
on government submarine contracts
Is another Innovation promised by
the secretary. Ho will insist that con
tracts given private concerns stipu
late quicker delivery, Tho secretary
believes that In .the past contractors
have been slow about completing tbo
government. craft. Ha cites the in
stance ot the ill-fated' F-4, which aank
last March outside Honolulu harbor.
This boat was only two years old,
haying been commissioned in 1913,
but Ave years elapsed before congress
authorized her construction and the
date, In 1913, .whan she waa deliver
ed to the navy.
On the other hand, tbe Fore River
Construction company, of Massachus
etts has just completed the electrlo
eubmerslbles for one ot the allies ia
the record time of eight months. They
were ordered in January and are now
lying, finished, to tbe eaipyarda of
Qulncy. Mass. R 'agreement with
Charles M, Schwab, who took the or

will be held In American waters un

I have visited many points, of the
principal cities in thirty-two states

My route was east over the Sunset

South, with a detour via Phoenix, and

"Conditions in the South appear to
be stea-dlly Improving. Cotton prices
are gradually growing better, but the
most hopeful sign Is In the evidence
that the one crop plan will aoon be
thrown into the discard.
"The severe lesson of the past year
or two has not been in vain, as evi
denced in many sections of the South.
Cotton may remain, king tor years to
Rome, but bis subjects will be far
more cosmopolitan than ever known
before south of the Mason and Dixon
line, all of which will spell a. steadier
and more rapidly growing prosperity.
Business conditions lu the Central
and Eastern statea are certainty bet;

May. At that time there did not seem
to be a silver lining to any of the
clouds that abut out the view in all
directions, aa tar as I could Judge.
There is no boom present or la
