ment, for the Englishman is a very
stubborn person in dangerous crises.
But 1t may serve to bring to the
surface severe criticism of the gov
ernment. The British censorship
has been used to check adverse
comments on the ministry by with
holding such news as the Audaci-
Gus catastrophe. A sense of pa
triotism has also restrained any
violent outbreaks against the cabi-
net. But there are smolderfng
flames of discomfort throughout the

What War MOUeS Mean
By J. w. T. MASON.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-The loss OF
the Bulwark does not disturb, to any
appreciable extent, the balance Of
naval power, but it must have an en-
couraging effect on the Germans. IL
British battleships can spontaneously
destroy themselves, there will be a
new argument for German irreconcll-
ables, who favor prolonging the war
over an indefinite time on the
chance that British sea preponder-
ance ultimately will be reduced to
the German level by a combination
OF luck, accident, and submarine at
tacks.
As far as is known, the Bulwark
is the second British battleship de-
strcyed, but there may be more. The
fact that the loss of the Audacious
is still withheld from the British pub
lie indicates it is the policy Of the
government to conceal every capital
ship disaster, whenever possible. The
only reason the loss of the Bulwark
WAS admitted. Is, without doubt, be-
cause the public character Of the eX-
plosion made concealment impossible.
The destruction of the Bulwark has
occurred simultaneously with the ar
rival in England of the American
newspapers giving first information
of the Audacious catastrophe. The
news is now spreading by word Of
mouth throughout England, substan-
tiated by American newspaper clip
pings, which are the only sources of
information about their most serious
naval blow Englishmen possess.
Thousands of Englishmen will thus
have heard Of the double disastaer

|I|l|L|AN HELP IS
NEEDED At PARK
Superintendent of the YoIIoW-
stone Reservation Applies
for More Assistants.

Additional civilian help and a num-
ber OF new buildings are needed in the
Yellowstone National Park. because of
the withdrawal Of United States toops,
according to the annual report to Sec
retary Of the Interior Lane by Mark
Daniels, general superintendent and
landscape engineer of national parks.
MIR. Daniels recommends an increase
in the force of rangers for patrol duty
that provision be made for a permanent
hospital; that permanent telephone
system be installed, and that an Admin
istration building, a storehouse, a resi-
uence for the superintendent, outpost
quarters, and rescue lodges be construct
ed in the park, to take the place Of the
temporary structures used by the Army
eefore the Administrative work was
turned over to civilian authorities
Extinction of all patents to land in

perintendent He says:
The ToSemit.. Lumber Company is
now constructing a logging railroad into
the park for the purpose Of taking tim
Der from their lands near Chinquapin,
and which are adjacent to the Wawona
road. This destruction of beautiful for
ests ir one of the most prominent parts
Of the park should be prevented. A
summer resort and town, known as For
esta, has been maintained on patented
lands within the park during the last
two seasons. A tract of patented land
on the Big Oak Flat road at a place
known as Gentrys has been subdivided
into lots, with the purpose Of establish.
ing a town and summer resort.
at is rumored that other owners of
patented lands contemplate the estab-
lishment of camps for the accommo-
dation of tourists, thereby having all
the advantages afforded by the Gov
ernments administration without pay
ing anything toward the maintenance
Of the park, as is required of all con-
cessions on the public lands.
Installation of a sewer and water
system in the park is recommended for
sanitary reasons. A new power plant
is also recommended.
