Suit Against U. S. for Material Used During War on Tral. An ‘action brought by the Electric Boat Company of New York against the government involving a rluimi amounting to several billions of dol- lars for the use during the world war of automoblile “torpedoes, was heard Tuesday by (he federal Court of Claims. The claim is based .on a contract whereby the. company de- clares it was to receive $800 on each torpedo-futaished to the government. The company asserts that its inven- tion resulted in increasing the range of automobile torpedoes to 10,000 yards, for the first time making t Dedoes effective againdt modern long range naval guns, A-vast number of the torpedoes were used in the war. both abroad and for. home coast de fenses, and it was sald that if the ‘claim is allowed the judgment would go into the billions. reduced at least by half, and it is khown that a certain percentage of the working population, hard hit by. low Wwages and high prices, is listening at- tantively to this .appeal, remembering npre-war _conditions, when there was plenty of food for all at prices which the poorest-paid wage earner could pay. The controversy between these two factions has resulted in another “clas: war,” in- which both sides have been preaching the doctrine of hate, appar- +~ntly with an unalterable antagonism |{ to compromise.
