LONDON. July J.T Although troop
ships that bring over American sol
diers arc* so well protected that the
submarine menace* is virtually negli
gible. submarines throughout the trip
arc probably the chief subject of the?
| com ersations ('anally the references
‘ to the under sea terror are jocular, but
it is apparent that serious thought
is given to b boats and that they loom
large in imagination. This applies to
" J officers as well as to the men. All say
' I frankly they have no desire for a
j brush with the linking enemy craft.
The reason for this was neatly put
! by a major of infantry who recently
| landed in Kngland ‘Lighting submar
ines,” he saicl. "isn’t exactly our game."
In that pithy explanation he s mimed
up the* soldiers' attitude exactly.
Fighting the* submarines is i t the
army's game, and soldiers can t play
it because* they don't know how It
their ship is attac ked there b nothing
for them to do except march on deck
and prepare to take to the lit boats.
Defensive measures rest with the tran
sport s naval guns and with the es
corting destroyers They, as tin- sol
diers see if. have all the tun, while
"| the soldier must stand bv. eager to
light, but helpless to take a hand
■i The army office rs feel kecnl their
I responsibility in suc h an unfamiliar
situation If devolves upon them to
I clear the ship ot every man aid et
them into their lifeboats.

He decided to turn the prisoner over!

KL CKNTItO. fill., July Iff The
first of the Imperial valley crop of
cotton for I'.'IK was picked June 1.
Picking in the valley usually begins
late in August, and nowhere in the
t'nited States, it is said, does picking
regularly begin so early in tile year.
The Imperial vallev cotton crop. t
which the government is looking to
as essential for certain war materials,
will be taken from lfio.uuo acres of
land this season this including tin
cotton land on tin Mexican side of
tin- valley, tin- cut of which is usually
marketed through Calexico and HI
Centro The industry first operated
commercially seven years ago, with a
total at reage of 1 L'.oon.
Tin- early cotton already being
picked is what is called "short staph-j
volunteers.*’ meaning thereby that tin
product is short staple, which is the
|
easiest varietv to grow, pick and gin.
and that it grew from roots which!
survived the winter. Such plant- an
called volunteers, and cotton growers j
say they an- earier to farm than s*«-d
lings. !• - - expensive to bring to tin
producing stag*-, and have other ad
vantages
