MUST MOBILIZE AGAINST U-BOAT MENACE-GEDDES Sub Danger is Greater Than Ever Before, Says Lord of British Admiralty. NEW YORK. Oct. 15 An appeal from the 'British government to America to expedite the construction of de

stroyers and anti-submarine craft and appliances was made here last night by Sir Eric Geddes. First Lord of the British Admiralty, after he had asserted that the U-boat menace today "is greater than it ever was." Speaking at a dinner given by the Pilgrim Society, Sir Eric said that within the past few days he and Vice Admiral Sir Ludovic Duff, of the British navy, had discussed the naval situation in all Its bearings with Secretary Daniels and Admiral Benson, and that "complete unity of view" had been reached. "It Is with Mr. Daniels's full concurrence that I now make this statement, that there is no greater service that can be rendered by the civilians ot the United States today charged with that privilege and duty than to expedite the output of destroyers and anti-submarine craft and appliances. of every description," Sir Eric said. "No country within my knowledge responds like America to an appeal, and perhaps It is seldom that a minister from another, though an allied, country Is permitted to make an appeal, and it would be possible only with the fullest consent and authority

of the responsible minister of the

country or wnicn ne was a guest Sir Eric reviewed British naval losses, declaring his country's losses in fighting ships of all classes have been approximately 230 "more than

twice the total losses of war vessels of the whole of our allies, and that 450 auxiliary craft, such as mine sweepers and trawlers, also have been

destroyed. British merchant ships to

Ihe number of 2,400 with a gross tonnage of nearly 7,750,000 have been sunk," he said, "or nearly three times the aggregate losses of our allies and 50 per cent more than the total losses of all other allied and neutral countries." Wlille British and American sea forces in all theatres of naval fighting are a homogeneous navy, Sir Eric added, the safety of lines of communication should not be taken for granted. "Germany is not beaten, is not nearly beaten, and in some respects is stronger than ever she was," he warned, regarding the enemy's naval situation.

mand for mechanics and repair men! back of the . lines in war service, in-! tensive courses are offered for tradesmen to . prepare them to train the large numbers of men demanded by the army to support the fighting men In the - front lines. These men will have the responsibility of upkeep, repair, and operation of the motors and machines now being used in ; such large numbers in the fighting area. . There is an opportunity for service for men capable of teaching such lines of work, and men being trained as special mechanics may have an opportunity for early service with the colors and for rapid promotion if especially capable. Many mechanics and technicians for army occupations are being secured through the draft and yet large numbers must be re

cruited from other occupations ana trained through evening courses. The federal board for vocational education is co-operating with the dar department to promote this training for

men between the ages of 18 ami 45 who may be called to the colors during the coming winter. . Indiana university is prepared to furnish the necessary special preparation for the teaching of this war emergency mechanical work for those who are now capable tradesmen and interested in becoming teachers of mechanical work during the coming winter. All the courses mentioned above are 15 weeks in length, ending the last of January, with one week's vacation during the Christmas holidays. Other courses will be offered from February to May. Announcement of these courses will be issued later.

EXPLOSION AT TORONTO.

LYNN, IND.

TORONTO, Oct. 15. Explosion in a TNT plant at Trenton, near here, destroyed a unit of the plant in which the explosion occurred and lives are reported lost. The distance from Eastport to Kittery. Me., is 226 miles, but the state has really about 2,000 miles of sea coast on account of the many inden-

In order to meet the very great de-'tations.

Reichstag says.

The constitution of Germany cannot be amended by the Reichstag without the consent of the German Ruler. The Reichstag can discuss the amendments to their heart's consent, but if the ruler does not want the amendment it cannot be passed. The

Reichstag must have the consent of j

the Bundesrat. There are 61 members in the Bundesrat and no motion can pass if 14 votes are cast against it. The state of Prussia controls 20 of

these votes. The King of Prussia controls the votes of the Prussian representatives. Therefore if all the people and the lords and princes in Germany wish to pass a bill they cannot do it if Kaiser Wilhelm the II says "NO."

large numbers of people who, for the first year or two, retained their vigor, are tired, prematurely old, discouraged, sometimes almost helpless. "There is probably no piece of service that the American Red Cross can render to Belgian people which will help more efficiently than to assist them in properly clothing themselves."

fews and Mohammedans .

Cruelly Treated by Balgars in Macedonia ' XT.y Associated Press) SALONIKI, Sunday, Oct. 13. Jewish and Mohammadan Greek subjects in eastern Macedonia suffered terribly during the temporary. Bulgarian rule of that country, it has been proved by1 investigation. Most of the Jews in Seres were deported and many died of hunger.

When the allies entered the town they were met with enthusiastic demonstrations by the people. Jews and Mohammedans here have subscribed to a relief fund for the people of Seres and hte great rabbi at Saloniki went ti Seres to survey conditions there.
