ANTI-SUBMARINE
DIVISION IS
URGED
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. — Estab
lishment of an anti-submarine division
in the navy department to be charged
with the formulation of plans, and
stj..y of the use of Inventions to com
bat the submarine menace Is urged
in a statement Issued at the head
quarters of the Navy League of the
United States here today.
"Such a division," says the state
ment, "exists In the British naval es
tabltshmcnt, and has since last Feb
ruary, when the present unrestricted
submarine campaign was begun.
"The recommendation is that the
anti-submarine division of the United
States navy department should co
operate with the corresponding dlvi
tion of the British admiralty for the
purpose of deciding upon effective
methods of offense against the whole
submarine power as well as to perfect
present palliatives employed In dc
fense against submarine attack."

our allies a debt. Forty years ago
we borrowed forty million dollars to
develop Ihe Northwest; our farmers
owo them a debt, for they are selling
their products at high prices and they
are puving off oh] debts; the manu
facturers have reaped a harvest. Uut
these are Ihe least of our del ts. Srot

only alliance possible for us was an
alliance with our friends. From the
first German autocracy has assailed
every ideal that was dear to us.
Our love for country urges ns to

From our youth it arouses our deep
ost and profoundest sentiments. No
land so small, hut the people nour

iiDruries and homes. And we have
manufactured manhood of good qual

great for an American to make for
his country. We are proud of Old
Glory and all she stands for. Let us
uphold the traditions and the prin
ciples of our forefathers, who fought,
hied and died for the form of demo
cracy we ure assisting our allies to

the wise sanity of Washington, the
clear vision of Hamilton, the Intel

universal pity und love for the weak

sailors will be to preserve, strengthen
and band over to the next generations
the principles of self-government. As
all our people unite their wealth und
