The Alaska citizen., 1914-09-14

Prior to 1901 England, which has
always led the world in naval con-
struction, did not possess a single
submarine. The first built in 1901
were regarded as experiments. In
that year Holland, the American
inventor, built five of his submar-
ines for England Crude and small
things they were, siXty-three feet
long, with a displacement of 1913
tons, and driven by gasoline. These
have all since been discarded. Now
England has a fleet of nearly ninety
submarines, manned by 5000 men.
For years it has been building its
own submarines in the greatest sec
recy, increasing their effectiveness
until the deadly E and F Classes
have been evolved.
NEW TYPE DESCRIBED.
The "E's" comprise the latest type
Of submarines that have been added
to the British navy. There are SIX
teen of them altogether. Their dis
placement has been increased to 800
tons, or as large as one of the big
gest destroyers and four times that
of the A class, while the horsepoW-
er is 1850, which gives surface
speed of sixteen knots. The sub
merged speed is ten knots. Oil
engines are used for the surface,
and electric motors for propulsion
when submerged. A special fea-
ture of this class is that each one
carries two 12-pdr. guns, quick fir
ers, which are placed on disappear
ing mountings.
Under the estimates for 1884
six submarines of a still larger type
were ordered They mark very
distinct advance even on the "E's'
and not only have much greater
radius Of action, but also are able
to make long voyages. Their dis
placement is from $40 to 1900 tons,
and they have engines of 5000
horsepower for surface work, while
the speed is 20 knots on the sur
face and - when submerged. They
carry two 12-pounder guns on dis
appearing mountings. These vessels
are really submersible destrOyers
and they have six torpedo tubes.
They are capable of doing much of
the work that destroyer is called
upon to do, with the additional ad-
vantage of being able to disappear
below at will.
SURPRISE EXPECTED.
Except in details which have been
kept secret the submarine fleets Of
Germany and France have followed
their development in England. 1t
is not known, however how many
submarines have been built in Ger
many in the last five years. A be-
lief exists that her submarine flot-
illas may prove one Of the revela-
tions Of the war.

Chioaao. May 21.-.No tolera-

ton
This is the suggested slogan Of
the Presbyterian church presented
10 the l2ath general assembly here
today in the reBort OF the special
Committee on White Slave Traffic
The report estimates that there
are 100 ,o0o prostitutes in the Unit
ed States and that a far greater
number are uuchaste Contributing
factors in this condition are the
fashions dances. the theatre. litera-
lure and ignorance. The principal!
remedy suggested is the enlightened
training of the young.
The report was prepared by Paul
| r. HEkok, John Balloon Shaw, John
* ennSag, Winfield Scott Hall and
y. ] II --sif.-1,ftatfet.
Speaking OF factors In the increase
of the social evil (Which are NOW As
sumng alarming proportions, the
report says;
"0ne Of these appears In the yul-
gar tendency OF modern fashion.
Our Standards, We remember. eX-
presslv forbid all Immodast appar-
e. To-day many OF our women are
going to such extremes OF dress as
To shock even the least prudish, and
open American Womanhood to the
charge OF complete forfeiture Of
modesty. The unfortunate side OF

church, whose most conspicuous
adjournment Is supposed to be meek
ness. are quite us guilty of this
ofense as are women who make no
religious professions, Until our
christian women can be made tol
see what mischief Is beine done by
such a reckless abandon To the fol
bles of fashion. there can be little
hope of stemming this evil tide, We
call the women of our Presbyterian
church to a practical separation of
themselves from these tendencies OF
our times. and eyhort them To be
At this point examples to their sis
tiers, lending their voice and iuftu-
ence alike, against all extremes of
dress, and seeking TO lead society in
a more worthy and wholesome direc-
ton.
another contributory factor is
the increasing craze for eXeitable
and uuchaste amusements. The
dance. never perhaps what could be
wished. has become the subject Of In
describably vulgar Joke. and is call
ing out the condemnation of many
holding high places of ecclesiastical
authority. The moving picture
shows. although under what is claim
ed TO be strict censorship, are cal
culated to inflame the thoughts and
emotions of the young. The thea
tire. with its outrageously fHppant
handling OF sex problems and situa-
tions, as we'll as the notorious dis
regard of 50 many of its leaders for
high standards OF marital and even
ordinary moral relations, is laying a
net that must seduce and capture d
considerable part of our rising gene
ration
The report concludes With set or
resolutions calling upon pastors to
guard children against all factors OF
life which eonduce to immortality,
commendirs those pastors who have
taken un the subject frankly with
fathers and mothers. and calling up
on Others to do so: recognizing the

the PUNISHMENT of men as we'll as

A GOOD HOME.

A good home is not purchased with
money, nor can it be maintained by
hirelings. In the most magnificent
mansions are sometimes found the
most desolate and unhappy hearts.
The children of today are to be the
founders of the homes Of tomorrow.
Are they being trained in lines that
promise perpetuation of the joys Of
this most sacred place? Are the
scenes and surroundings of their lives
such as to make it easy and natural
to travel in those paths that lead to
long and continued peace? Are not

WANTED, A MANAGER.

By reason Of the resignation of Ne
hemiah Davis, president of the city
commission, it will soon become nee
essary to call special elction to fill
the vacancy. The position is so i'm
portant from a business standpoint,
that every good citizen can afford to
lay aside his political prejudices and
stand united for the right man. There
are several good men, any one of
whom might be induced to accept the
position, if they only knew that a
united Minot would stand behind them
and cooperate with them. A man
should not be elected to this position
because he's a "good fellow" We
want good business administration
and only good businessman can fill
the position well. The time will
come some day when men will be
trained to govern municipalities, by
making comprehensive study of the
problems that will confront them when
once in office. Cities will pick the
head of their government as great
department store selects it's general
manager and his services will be re-
warded accordingly.

During the year 1918, there were "a
lynchings in the United States, all but
Ione Of the victims being negroes. That
Exception was Cleve Culbertson, who
was lynched at Williston for the muir
der Of the Dillon family of three.
Montana contributed to one of the
number All but these two lynchings
occurred in the southern states. 1t
is encouraging to consider that the
record of lynchings is notably less
than that of any previous year on rec
ord, so being recorded last year and
$50 in some previous years. There is
growing tendency for the people to
let the law take its course. There
have been fewer attacks by negroes on
white women, gratifying fact
/ The states in which the lynchings
occurred during the year and the num-
Der in each were as follows: Ala

AS direct result of the Ward
County Agricultural Exhibit put on
at the county fairs at Aleda and Gales
burg, ILL.,, and West Point, Iowa, in
September last, several farmers of
that section have bought farms in
Ward County. S. S. Boden Of Joy,
Illinois, bought tract Of 800 acres
of first class raw prairie land eight
miles north and east of this city. He
has built himself good home and
two weeks ago sent for his family,
consisting of his wife, three boys and
three girls, all of whom reached here
to occupy the new home on Christmas
day Mr.. Boden is first class, up-to-
date farmer. He brought with him IL
fine farm horses, 5 good mich cows,
including hogs, poultry and farm
machinery ample to carry on the
work. He will not only grow grain,
but he will be even more interested in
corn, forage crops, including mich
cows and hogs.
We predict that he will make good
from the start. Other settlers have al
so arrived, as the direct result of this
effective manner of advertising Ward
county's resources and farming pos
sibilities, and others will undoubtedly
continue to come. Let the good work
go on.
