AMERICAN GENIUS CONQUERS THE WORLD

For the first time In more than one
hundred years, England's predominant
naval power is seriously threatened.
The submarine campaign of the Ger
mans, against which defense is practic.
ally impossible, may end in the de-
struction of the British grand fleet.
The fate of the cruisers Aboukir, the
Cressy and the Hogue, which were de
stroyed by submarine at one time
and place several months ago, con
WINGED England and every other coun-
try that henceforth the submarine is
to play tremendous part.
For many years England has pre-.
Tended to regard the submarine with
contempt, but it was-al. pretense. Her
naval captains know that British sea
power would be seriously threatened
by the improvement and use of the
submarine. Their fears have been
realized, and the worst is yet to come
American Student at Yale
Inventor Of Submarine.
During our revolutionary period, q
youth named David Bushnell, a fresh
man student at Yale, invented the
submarine. He called 1t his turtle
a weapon designed for us against Brit
ish naval power. 1t was wonderful
boat, indeed, the first vessel to navi
gate under water. 1t was powerful
craft, operated by one man.
4 The young patriot also invented the
submarine mine and convinced his
doubling professors, by actual demon
stration, that he had discovered way
to destroy British sea-power.
sack" Holland, Irish Patriot,
Uses BushnelI's Ideas.
A few years ago, John p. Holland
who died at the beginning of the pres
ent war, an Irish Fenian leader, who
had sought safety in America, raised
a fund of $4,000 among his fellow
patriots for the purpose of building
submarine ram" to be used aBains
British sea.power. The boat which h
constructed was terror, almost a
good as his later models. Hollan
continued his efforts, until he pre-
duced a submarine that, although sloN
and blind, could be accurately naviga
ed and used with deadly effect. !
French inventor devised the prismati
periscope, which enables the submt
rine to see without rising to the tot
This improvement, however, still

imperfect, for spray and foam obscure
the view. American inventors are now
trying to perfect eyes" for the sub
marine. SO that they can see perfectly
and strike accurately from the depths
of the sea.
British naval experts" always rldi-
culed the submarine. declaring that it
was too slow and erratic for use ex-
cept at short distances. that It could
not travel far and was not greatly to
be feared. They were "whistling for
courage" so to spe2..,, for well they
knew the power of the deadly menace.
France built n large number of sub
marines, expecting a war with Eng
land after the Fashoda affair. Today
she finds herself allied with the Brit
ish against Germany. The Teutons,
too, recognized the superiority of
young Bushnell's invention and were
ready with large number of "unter-
seeboots" when the war broke out.
Their best model is but slight I'M
provement upon Hollands master
piece, and the latter embodied the
ideas of the obscure Yale student of
our colonial days.

Now the Germans have produced a

honor which should have been won by

land is simply a combination of the
ideas OF Bushnell and Holland.
Germany now purposes TO restore
her mercantile marine by the use of a
sub-Alantlc fleet. She will succeed,
! inevitably. She also purposes TO keep

for the destruction of the British
: grand fleet. This also probably will
happen, and against such an attack in
force there will be slight defense. The
great dreadnoughts may be crushed
and sunk. one-two-three style. by the
invisible enemy, just as were tho

United States to Be
Dominant Naval Power.
The keenest observers of our day
recognize the fact that the fate of ma
lions is involved in the exploit of the
Deutschland, which is about to leave
Baltimore ON her return to Germany.
While showing all honors to the
bravery of Captain Koenig and his
gallant crew, every American should
remember with feeling of pride that
the submarine is the invention OF pa.
triotic American youth, whose soul
yearned for power to humble or de
stroy the earl !day enemy of his coun.
try.
The arrival and departure of the
Deutschland, like the voyage of Column
bus, is one of the greatest sea exploits
in the history of the world. 1t is tri.
vial, however, in comparison with the
events that are to follow.
The United States of America. with,
in ten years, will be the dominant sea,
power, above and below the surface
of the raging oceans and in the bound

of the world" TO spread the blessings
of liberty among all benighted peoples

and every nation under the sun, fol

Almighty, expressed in the thought Of
