TWO BRITISH SUBS COLLIDE (CO.VHNURD FROM PAGE ONE) that details were unavailable and promised relatives of officers and men of the submarines that they would be informed as further information is available. Although all arrangements are being expedited to salvage the sunken submarine, many experts are pessimistic regarding success of rescue attempts. The destroyer Thanet, which left Plymouth today for Arran was instructed by radio to rush to the scene of the disaster. The spot where the submarine lies is passed regularly by the passenger liners plying between New York and Liverpool. iNaval authorities assumed that the 1,12 was traveling on the surface at the time of the collision, thus accounting for the loss of the chief signalman, who probably was on lookout duty. The commander in chief of the British Atlantic fleet, at present at Torbay, ordered all dances scheduled on all ships of the fleet during the week cancelled. ' Q Prussian Diet Approves Concordat With Holy See Berlin, July 9.—(U.R)—The Prussian diet at the end of an uproarious debate, punctuated with anti-religious shouts of communist members, today approved the concordat with the Holy See by a vote of 243 to 172.

The diet rejected Nationalist and Economist party motions to this effect. . When the Catholic deputy. Joseph Hess, declared during the debate that the concordat proves Prussia's religious tolerance, the Communists shouted in a body "Jesuit rubbers"! The Nationalist deputy. Franz Goldau, declared he was voting for the concordat because it safeguarded the Nationalists inteersts. Thereupon the Nationalists announced Goltlbau was ousted from the party. o — -» Watson Speeds Up Work On New Tariff Measure Washington, July 9 —(UP) — The Senate finance committee will have complete ddrafting the tariff bill when the senate reconvenes August 19 and the bill may be passed about the end of November, Senator Watson, republican leader, predicted today.
