May 13. 1915—The British battle ship Goliath was sunk in the Dar denelles by a Turkish destroyer, Mua venet-i-Millet, and 500 men were drowned. It was anchored in the Morto Bay when the destroyer came down on her in the mist and put three torpedoes in her vitals. The terrific and futile cost of the Allied venture in Gallipoli was mount ing daily, and the worst was yet to come. German submarines were on their way to the Dardeneles, intent upon breaking up the daring raids 1 British submarines had been making through the Strait. Every- one of these passages of the British submarines up the Dardenel les were heroic ventures, made with in range of Turkish forts, in mine Lieut. Corr.dr.

Lieut. E. C. Boyle followed in the E-14, running submerged for 44 hours, with hidden mines all around him. and. torpedoed three ships, including the Turkish transport Gul Gemel, with 6.000 troops. When AE-2. commanded by Lieut. Comdr. H H. G. Stoker tried it, it broke surface suddenly, was spotted by Turkish gunners and sunk. The French submarine Joule followed, hit a mine, went down. Not daunted. Lieut. Comd. M. E. Nasmith made the passage in the E-11, sank 10 ships, penetrated into the Bosphorps and torpedoed the transport Stamboul and the ammuni tion ship there.

Farmers of South Move On Capital To Back if he AAA (Continued from j-h ge One.) predict" : would orir.g 3,000 to the capita!: "We felt the administration needed some support up here.” Delegations on their way last night included 250 coming by train from ed his intention of vetoing it soon after it reaches him, probably tomor row. The Senate itself launched into an other debate over strengthening the Tennesesee Valley Authority, while the House, well along on its legisla tive duties, took up the last big ap. propriation hill of the session. In a report to the House, the ways and means committee asked passage of laws to strengthen the govern ment’s operations against liquor smug glers “whose operations now have in creased to alarming proportions.” Downtown Washington saw the ar rival of the advance guard of South ern farmers coming here, they said, to "offset some of this opposition noise” to the administration’s farm program. ‘‘Uncompromising” Drys Are Blamed (Continued from Page One.) have been held. Under the Day bill, which passed the House and which was defeated in the Senate through through the efforts ofß urgess and Senator Horton, 51 counties would have had to vote wet before a single store would have been established. Because Senator Horton struck an un compromising attitude and applied •the pairlitementary 'clincher ,<to the defeat of the Day bill by the Senate a two-thirds majority in that body had to fee musterted before it would be considered again. Despite the ap peal of several legislators who voted against the Day bill the Senate refus ed to reconsider the measure. Thus have Burgess and Senator Horton been the means of their own undoing. The “uncompromising drys” are in far worse condition than they would have been had they permitted the li quor control system to be voted upon by the State at large. By clinging to the extreme Tight - on the control question they have virtually stricken from the statute books their dry act, the stringent Turlington law. In addition to defeating their own purpose Burgess and his cohorts have succeeded, unless conditions change within a short in Injecting li quor as the No. 1 issue in the 1936 local and State elections, a thing they have repeatedly declared they did not want to do because of the politically- landau passing through the streets of London in a parade from Buck ingham palace to St. Paul’s ca- Another Air Tragedy dry Republican party. On tHeo ther hand many of the ardent drys now see that they erred in causing the defeat of the Day referendum. The referendum would have been held next month, the issue settled for a while; certainly it would have prevented li. quor feeing the prime issue in 1936. Last midweek legislators who fa vored modification of the State’s dry laws virtually conceded defeat when they offered the resolution to name a committee to study liquor control. Coming directly on the heels of dry exultation over the gesture of defeat was a favorable report on the wine bill. Offered by Senator Coburn, of Martin, as a temperance bill, it was passed by the Senate. Less than an hour later it had been approved by the lower house and is now law.
