Mr. Ford. first visited] the Navy Department, and then 'call ed on the President at the White House. Mr. Ford's idea is that gasoline can be used even under water. "he problem, in the opinion of experts, is to dispose of the exhaust. It has] been hinted to them that Mr. Ford | has in mind some chemical applica- | tion by which the exhaust will be- come absoluble in water. If gasoline could be used Instead of stored electricity for submarines when submerged it would add im mensely to the radius of action of the underwater craft. At present a sub- marine which may be able to haul 3,000 miles on the surface by using petrol can pnly accumulate and store sufficient electricity to earry it 200 miles under water without rising to the surface. ------------ Confiscated Cargoes, | Rochester, N. Y., Post-Express. | The British prize court having con- | fiscated certain cargoes consigned to Continental neutrals, the shippers Trustee Godwin also favored en- dorsing the proposal. | Trustee Eliott said the plan of Dr. Chown was a most praiseworthy one, but at the same time there were | || questions to be considered in such a| scheme. Thé prime object of the | Board was to see that the children | secured a proper education, and {| there should be nothing introduced | || to interfere with their education. It| was a worthy scheme and might be | worked out in some other way he | thought. | | © Trustee Monk was of the same op- | | inion as Trustee Elliott. He had spoken to a number of parents and | they had stated that they regarded | | the scheme as too much for the chil- | dren to handle as they were busy | with other things. | The scheme of holding hazaars | and concerts was disapproved of by | several members it being stated that | | it would interfere with studies: | Trustee Chown said that every- thing depended on the system, as to whether the scheme would be a, suec- cess or not, and Trustee Laird stat- {ed that it would depend altogether on how the work was carried out. Trustee Henderson was in sym- | pathy with the movement, but consid ered that too much was being asked of the Board to take up and should shoulder all the' work with the other | bodies. Trustee Elliott favored having the question go to a committee, and said he would give the matter all tle at- tention possible in an endeavor to work out a scheme that would be suitable. He also stated that Dr. Chown should be commended for his zeal, Asked for their opinion in the mat- {| ter, both Inspector Stuart and Prin- || cipal E. O. Sliter stated tkat:a plan {ghould be carefully worked out and {| approved by the Board for the carry- ing on of the work. Trustee Henderson said he approv- | ed of the objects of the league. After some further discussion, the Board passed a motion of Trusiee | 'Renton, seconded by Trustee Bell, | referring the matter to a'committee composed of the chairman, Trustees | Farrell, Laird, Elliott, Chown, Meek, | with Inspector Stuart and Principal | Sliter, to report at the next meeting. || The Chairman, James Craig, pre sided at the meeting.

There was no conclusive testimony that these cargoes consigned to neu- | trals were intended for a belligerent, { though the presumption is that they | were. The countries receiving them were 'already so over supplied with meats beyond their normal needs that | these cargoes must haye spoiled on | the hands of the consignees. The {inference is inescapable that the | meats were to be forwarded to Ger- many where they might have begn marketed at a: profit; but inference is not a legal proof. Pending decision of the cases on appeal, Americans may congratulate themselves'that no allegation appears to have been made, as during our war with Spain, that the meats were spoiled and unfit * for human con- sumption like the canned stuffs said to have been unloaded on our gov- ernment for use of its troops. which would lead him farm."

HAPPY UNDER BURDEN HEAVY TAXES PROPOSED BUDGET MEET APPROVAL. Eulogies For McKenna--New Chan- cellor Felicitated by the Press on His Fine' Statement. London, Sept. 24.-- "Hard hit, but happy," is the Globe's summing up of the citizens' attitude 'toward the new taxation proposals. This op- timistic view is generally reflected in the press, while the universal opin- fon is that Reginald McKenna has made a reputation both by his clear- cit manner "of presenting the new budget and by the equitable propo- sals made. 3 : "Never did a Finance Minister con- vey 80 momentous a statement with syeh- brevity gud Tueidity, and with such Admirable grip of his material," says the Westminster Gazette. Be: sides acquiescing in the new taxation, the papers pave the way for even more stringent proposals subsequent- ly, if they should be necessary for the successful issue of the war. The newspapers are hit by the in- creased tolls on telegrams, but this will hot affect the cablegrams, The argument that the troops will suffer owing to the increased tobacco duty IN as sich parcels are especially ex- empt from duty. ¥ F. W. Hirst, editor of the Econo- mist, says that the budget is a good one on the whole, and that nothing vould be better calculated to sustain British eredit than the decision to impose taxes during the war sufi- cient to cover the charges on thi debt and the war pensions. ..
