effect lor' the purpose of meeting the
submarine menace. according to The
Daily Mail. The changes are being
planned by Premier Lloyd-George in
collaboration with Sir Edward Car-

has 'lately been devoting much atten-
tion to the problem and has directed
important inquiries with a view to the
introduction of new methods. An ex-
amination of the administrative ma-
chinery with which the Admiralty has
been fighting submarines in the
past is said by the Mail to have con-
vinced the Premier that a reorgani-
zation. is desirable. The paper speci-
Ilces two directions, in which impor-
tant changes are contemplated, nam-

Wome-n's Patriotic Society was s\Ic-
cessiully carrried through. The Hon.
Justice I-lnszard presided and made a
short and eifective appeal on behalf
of the Red Cross of which the Wo-
men‘s Patriotic Society is a Branch.
I-ie said that the need for assistance
in carrying on the work of the Red
Cross is greater today than ever be-
fore in its history. An urgent appeal
had within the past few weeks been
made to thc people of P. E. Island
from Headquarters for additional as~.
slstance for carrying on the work at
the front. They could realize how
great the need was when he mention-
ed that the num-ber of Canadian ca-
sualties on the Western front since
Easter Monday totalled over 12,000
killed and wc-unded. To understand
what that meant they had just toI
think for a -moment what their feel-,
ings would be ii' toruorrow the wholei
population of (Zharlottetown were
wiped out r.-I' disabled. The whole
population of Charlottetown was less
than thc number of Canadian casual-
ties since Easter Monday. There was
no greater work. no lmore needed
work, no more patriotic work than
that carried on by the Red Cross So-
cieties throughout Prince Edward ls-
land. The work of the Women's Pa-
triotic Socicty in Charlotte-town was
especially wr/rthy of support. “We
are passing through a serious crisis,
but its seriousness is not fully realiz-
ed by the people of this favored land.

getting 'higher prices than ever before

supreme and what were we doing for
those wllo are sacrificing their lives
that we might enjoy our peace and
prosperity. Surely this was not a
time for gayety and amusement whom
so'-much was needed for those. who
are upholding thc cause of righteous-
ness and the sanctity of our 'homes

great tical. many were doing a littlc

BRITISH BLACKLIST
AGAINST AMERICAN
SHIPS WITHDRAWN
i.ONDON.- The British blacklist
of-shipping has been withdrawn, so
far as it concerns the United States.
The following announcement W8*
made by the Foreign Oillvcet-
"Now -that the United ‘States hav(
entered the war against our common
enemy and are adopting safeguards of
their own, it has been decided ti?
withdraw the statustory list tblaol
list) from the United States."
The British Admiralty in October'
of 1915 issued a blacklist which. as
changed from time to time, has been
in force from that date. Ae origi-
nally issued it contained e. list of for-
ty-seven neutral vessels. ten of which
were Almerican. British shippers
were warned to be careful in cl\»~°~v
ing these ships, which were suspected
by the British authorities of being
controlled by German capital Or Bn-
gaged in unneutral service.
Most of the American ships on the
list were owned by the American
Trans-Atlantic Company and several
of them -were seized by the British.
The cases of the Saginaw, the Kan-
kakee, the Genesee and the Hocking
have been before the British prize
court for many months. These ca-
ses were postponed recently in the
expectation that a settlement would
be effected, in view of the entrance
of the United States into the war.
