Morgan & Co. has subscribed | $50,000,000 to the Liberty Loan. This is the largest single subscription yet reported, and represents’' the amount o6f bonds which the bank firm will take. . It does not include any sub- acriptions received from customers. Of the $50,000,000, the Néw York bank takes $40,000,000 and Drexel & Co.,"the Philadelphia branch, $10,- 000,000. Besides the bank’s individual sub- scription, J. P. Morgan & Co. have been instrumental in having a number of railroad and industrial corporations make subscriptions for substantial amounts, but in each case the firm has turned the application over to cther banks and trust companies. Thus the $25,000,000 subscription from the United States Steel Corporation orig- inally came to the Morgan bank, but wag flled through the First National | Bank, which has collected subscrip- | tions to the amount of $75,000,000. | this figure including the bank's own $25,000,000.

Washington, June 9.—Theé navy is now dry. Announcement was made by Mr. Daniels, secretary of the navy, that he had sent to all naval stations the following message: “The department requested the opinion of the attorney genera! as to whether' Section 12, Selective Draft act, approved May 18, 1917, contain- ing the prohibition provisions, appiies to naval forcés. Attorney general re- plied, in part, as follows: ‘This de- partment has administratively con- strued the prgvision in question as covering the entire military estab- lishment of the United States, includ- ing the navy and Marine Corps.’ Please give this matter widest pub- | leity.” The section in question prohibits the \ sale, gift or poeeession of spirituous or malt lquors at any cantonment, quarters, post officers or enlisted mén‘s club used for military purposes, or on any 'military reservation. It alsa makes unlawful the sale of intoxicat- g liquors to “‘any officer or member of the military force while in uni- form,” and authorizes the president to make regulations concerning the pro- hibition of alcoholic liquors in or near military camps. Naval officers still, enjoy a certain amount of freedom in this respect by comparison with officers of the army, because while on staff duty they are not obligéd to wear their uniforme. Army officers, on the contrary, mnust wear their uniforms and fall within the restricted class. Naval officers, however, in view of the opinion of the attorney general, are expecting the issuance of an order requiring them also to wear their uni- forms. In order that the boys may spend time in the gardens it is probable that the annual summer ¢ampaign trip of the Y. M. C.
