It is not for an instant to be assumed that the submarine menace! is under control. We neither know how many German U boats are) operating nor at what rate they are being built and launched from! German shipyards. Along with indications that they are becoming, less dangerous in the Atlantic we have to take official announcement! that the big British transport Transylvania and the French liner, Sontay were torpedoed and sunk this month in the Mediterranean, | Nevertheless, remembering the gloomy views publicly expressed by British officials a few weeks ago, the British Premier's words should stimulate hope and determination. Nor is it unnatural that Americans should fee) a thrill of satis | faction when they think that this check upon submarine activity has) become most marked since the flotilla of American destroyers under Rear Admiral Sims arrived in the war zone to aid and relieve the British U boat chasers. It would be foolish to say we did it. But it is gratifying to note! that events following our arrival on the firing line so far justify, in! one direction and to a modest degree at least, Mr. Balfour’ farewell | commendation of what, despite all obstacles in and out of Congibie, | “has been performed (by this Nation) in those forty days.” | scat thtictin | | NO CROPS TOO BIG IF WE PREPARE FOR THEM.) OV. WHITMAN and his advisers on food problems have re-| ceived, so the public is told, such encouraging reports con- cerning the cultivation of vegetables and grains in this State that they are already listening to the forebodings of farmers and pro-| ducers who fear the effects of overproduction. It seems a singular moment to worry about growing too ani] when half the world is down to famine rations, when from one end! to the other of this country, now at war, is heard an urgent plea for] record crops, when the Department of Agriculture asks that every! available piece of land be planted with food this apring, when cor | porations and employers are trying to induce their employees to take! to gardening, and when, even from the farmers’ point of view, as the! National City Bank of New York in a pamphlet on the subject points | out, “with reserves exhausted and the world situation what it is there} is no danger of overdoing production, for the largest possible crop| in this country is bound to bring remunerative prices.’ If producers are afraid that local crops may prove too large to| + $6.00/ One Yoar.. 915.40 + 1.80 20,366 market, ways should be found to reassure them.
