WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. The hopeful outlook for effectively curbing th submarine menace.

Indicated In the speech of the British premier Monday, will serve to increase rather than lesson the pressure the Washington government Is putting upon destroyer building and other anti-submarine measures. This wa Indicated by Secretary Daniels Tuesday tn refusing to discus details of th part American vessels have been playing In the campaign. The Incident used by Lloyd George to lend force to his statement that he no longer feared the submarine menace the fact that five submarines had been sunk in one day probably represents the best one day' achievement of the anti-submarine forces. Mr. Daniels said it was the highest figure he had heard In that regard.

The policy of silence to th numbers of submarines destroyed or the place of actions has a definite place in this program, now seemingly achieving a measure of suocess. Admiral Benson sand Vice Admiral Sims are known to share the views of the British admiralty in this regard. It was pointed out Tuesday that the British admiralty had not made any statement In regard to the sinking of the five Gorman U-boats Saturday, announced by Lloyd George. The premier waa destrodk of stressing his contention that the lack of co-ordinated military plans among the allies was the gravest danger facing the allied cause, and his statement in the view of officers here, dobs not foreshadow an Impending change In policy of th publication of the results of- th campaign.

Again Higginbotham was given the aaJJ. And again it went to him. But the Teaas line was holding. His two attempts gave him but six yard. There a conference of Aggie lacks.

That four yards looked big with the Long- aorns fighting to stave off defeat. So the buck was passed to Collins. 'On his good rlpht toe would the Aggies eVnenri for victorv. But his toe failed. UI1 in mil IBUUI-e muter m.

fcrought victory. The drop, kick went igh, but to the right of uw goal, it 'Was a failure. i But some Longhorn of the first line of defense was too quick to leaws his post. He was off side and far off side when the ball was snapped. For the offense the Longhorn drew a penalty of five yards.

It gave the Aggies the distance they needed to eompleta their 1 yards, making it first down with the ball on the Texas three-yard line. It was here that McMurrey was osJled from tackle to take up the burden of carrying the ball across. Once he went Into i the Texas line but the gRin was small. Another time he tried and the gala was but little. The Texas eleven was fighting like mad.

Less than two yards stood between them and defeat. It looked like folly for McMurrey to again try. Every opponent was bent on (topping the Aggie tackle, so recently made Into a charging, slashing, fighting back-eld man. But Collins, calling signals, had faith In Mis man. His numbers rang out.

There was no doubt about who would carry the tail with the tens McMurrey waiting in his place. The pass from Gtlmore was true and quick. McMurrey charged with 1 all that his speed, weight and determine- nass of football warriors was pulleS a part, the oval was across-John McMur- fey nad given tne Aggies victory over me Collins then kicked goal. LONGHORNS PLAYED TO HOLD AGGIE OFFENSIVE. After that the Longhorns resorted to the open game.

Smythe and Trabue got way with several forward passes. But consistent gains were not possible. The Aggie secondary defense dropped back and played the open game safely. Just a few mfciutes later the whistle of the Tf-eree told that the game had ended. Slowly the Longhorns gathered In a circle around Captain Trabue and the was green for the victors.

In an- ether spbt was gathered the elated Aggies asd the honor waa returned. The game was over. On one side of the field a Joyous throng la khaki left the stand to snake ready for the celebration of the Bight. Through another exit filed an-Iher stream to make its way to a wait- sag. train and tben back to Austin.

As football games go. It was a tame ex- siUUOD. In all the four periods there was bat one brilliant piece of work, the Sfr-yara run by Higginbotham. Not once ttd the Longhorns threaten to score. Only two promising chances came to the Ag- arte.

The first waa ruined by a penalty, the other was made by a penalty. It seemed to be the object of the Texas eleven to hold the Aggie scoreless. Of-, fensiveJy the Longhorns were poor per-. formers. But their defensive game was at beauty.

For almost a full game It earned back the Farmer charges. But the Farmer charge ware not a fierce as they have been In other games. It waa in the second period that a first penalty spoiled budding Aggie oppor-, tunity. After an exchange of nunta the Aggies were within striking distance. The call was for McMurrey and he began the work that later did bring a score.

He 1 waa marching along in that second period. But this time Wilson, the Aggie big Kard, got over anxious. He used his nds while on the offense. The breach drew its penalty and, the Aggie chance went glimmering. While giving McMkrrey hi desert for winning the game, it seem but fair to call him to task for his act of the early part of the game.

It looked for a mo-- snent a if the Longhorn would have to play the game without Trabue. On his first punt Collins sent a long Spiral down the field to Trabue. The Texas captain signaled for a fair catch and stood there waiting for the oval to fail into his arms. In this position and ST LIN CITY AUDITORIUM, NOVEMBER 30. P.

Aggie head coach, said to the offender between halve was short and to the point. But this bit of work did not detract one whit from the game that McMurrey played. On offense and defense, he was a tower of strength. AGGIE FRESHMEN WERE MUCH IN THE FRAY. While Collins" ioc was not up to its maximum strength: it was so far ahead of rival footwork that comparisons are not needed.

The Aggie kicking artist sent the ball to ail directions and In all manner of forms. He had high spirals. Then he would come along with one far and with a beautiful arch. His next punt would be a low sweeping drive Just above the line of scrimmage. But the Aggies owe.

much to a pair of youngsters Higginbotham and Mahan. It was Higginbotham. whose long run made the score possib'e. Mahan tviu perhaps the most consistent ground gainer in the Aggie backfiekl. His principal offei.se iu his work tliroo'rh the line Seldom did he fail when called upon for a few more yards of gaining.

Aside from his kicking. Collins played a stellar game at carrying the bell. His end runs were never long, but they were clean and sure. His interference was good. If he has that lack of mettle com-monlv known as a "yellow streak," it failed to show In his game Tuesday.

Willie Trabue was the snining light ot rri- Never Old he tr harder for a victory For a time after his collision with McMurrey, he was not at his best. But he stuck to his post and was there for the final whistle. Several times he got away for short gains at carrying the ball. At the middle of the game, he took up the punting work of his team and did some creditable work that partly offset the Collins handicap. In the line the Ixnghorn left side proved a stone wall.

From Greer at center to Tena at tackle the Aggies met a defense not to be shaken. Between the two stood Bradford at guard. The trio made up a fine combination for defensive work. It was as an offensive machine that the Longhorns failed miserably. Ty made less than a dozen first ddwns.

The backfleld was slow at getting off. When it did. the interference seldom put the Aggie ends out of the play. Only once or twice did a back show the ability of cutting in and gaining before being halted by the secondary defense. The Texas eleven played its great game on its defense and its nerve.

Of the latter, it carried an abundance, even more than did the 00 Texas students, who sat In the grandstand. Neither did the Aggies give an exhibl- Their one score "f'f" the needed moment. Offensively, came the Aggie machine Is far superior to the combination from Austin. Put at that the Agg'es failed to show the class that carried them to victories over Tulane and Louisiana. A crowd estimated at 5000 saw the game.

Fully half of this number wa in the Aggie stands to the west side of the field. What went on in that west side was almost as good as the attraction on the field. By far more than the Aggie outclassed the Longhorns. did the Aggie cheering sections surpass the Austin supporting delegation. And the difference was not alone in numbers.

A veil from the Farmer stands carried a snap that the Texas cheers did not have. Relations between the two student bodies was ideal. Even when it grew a bit cloudy -with Willie Trabue hors de combat after his Jolt from McMurrey. there was nothing offensive In e'ther stand- Once later Collins handled a Longhorn a bit roughly and his team was penalised another 15 yards. But Collins acted under the Impression that one of his fellows was being unduly roughed.

It wa excusable. Barring that pair of Incidents, It was a clean game of football and a credit to the two schools. The Longhorns drew but one penalty. It perhaps cost them the game. Six trains Tuesday morning brought ir visitors, estimated to numher from 5000 to tOOO.

It ca sweeping in scope. The course pursued by President Gompers In calling a conference of the national and International officers of the federation at Washington uii March was approved and all his subsequent actions and those of tho executive council with reference to the war were concurred in. This resolution with others from the committee on resolutions occupied virtually the entire day. The vice president. James Duncan, made a report at the afternoon session on his trip to Kiassia as a member of the commission appointed by President Wilson and Gilford Pinchot, speakinx for the federated board of farm organizations, asked for closer relations between the farmers' organizations and the American Federation of Labor.

A committee was up- pointed with Instructions to report to (he present convention on the possibility of constructive action along the line suggested by Mr. Pinchot. The only resolution that caused ex tended debate related to negro labor. It was submitted by Leiegate Murphy of San Francisco and embodied in Its pre amble a resolution adopted by the Na tional Negro league and presented to the San -Kranctsco Labor council for In dorsement. The negro league's resolution specifically referred to the "southern States" as scene of wrong Inflicted upon the lace.

The resolutions committee, reporting to the convention, assumed no respon sibility for the statements In the preamble of the Murphy resolution and rec ommended reference to the executive council of only that part of It referring to organization of tne negroes. O. D. Gorman of ueoig.a protested against the reference to the southern States remaining In the record and moved as an amendment to strike out the en tire section. "The slaughter at Kast St.

Louis came as a result of thefts by starving negroes enticed away from their southern homes." Gorman said, "I defy any delegate to point to a single Instance of a negro being killed for robbery in the south. I resent this reference to the southern States. The treatment of the negro In the south la better than it has been in the north." Finally, the report was amended by the resolutions committee to read: "Tour committee can not be responsible for and rejects the statements contained in the preamble of the resolution." and as so amended the report was adopted.
