Steamer Was Surprised.

Mr.. Droop retold ono Of the stories
the men brought with them. While
several hundred miles from the Ameri-
can coast a largo steamer was sighted
The crew of tho Deutschland hotsted a
sail up on the periscope. The captain
of the steamer evidently was surprised
at tho sudden appearance Of a sailing
vessel. and such a queer-looking one at
that, that he came over to investigate
When he was within a few hundred
yards of the Sub the men telescoped
the periscope tube and the ship dived
When it came up again the men had a
great deal Of fun watching the "nosey'
vessel making tracks" as fast as she
could hit 1t up"
Another story was told of the head
steward of the Deutschland. When
war was declared he lived in the United
States. and. although hfty-nve or sixty
years old, managed to get back to the
fatherland to enlist in the army. He
succeeded in his desire. but almost in
his first engagement was captured and
placed In an allied detention camp for
eighteen months. He was then re-
leased because of his advanced age.
He tried to enlist again in the army,
but was turned down. as was also
the case with the navy. Not to be out
done, and determined to serve his coun-
try In some manner. he entered the
merchant service and. in view Of his
intense patriotism, was allowed to ship
In the first overseas submarine.

MEN
ARE CHEERED HERE
Six Sailors From German Sub
marine Take In Sights of
the Capital.
ARRESTED UPON ARRIVAL
FOR SPEEDING IN AUTO
Possible Fine Waived and Collateral
Returned, However-Give Inter-
esting Sidelights on Trip.

Westinghouse were greatly inter-
ested today in six sailors from the Ger
man submarine Deutschland. who are
in the capital as guests of prominent
citizens who were born in Germany.
Curious small crowds followed these
sailors in the public buildings they Wis
tied. and the automobiles which car
ried them about the city caused much
comment. These automobiles were
easily distinguishable as each flew a
German flag in addition to the Stars
and Stripes.
The six heroes of the greatest sub
marine voyage ever made arrived in
the capital yesterday evening. Their
first welcome might have been consid-
cred disheartening, for they were ar
rested for speeding. but that matter
was settled by Edward F. Droop. who
with Gus Bucholz. proprietor of the Oc-
cidental Hotel, is host to them. Mr..
Droop went up to Police Court to fix
things" this morning, and possible
fine was waived and the IS collateral
deposited last night was returned.
The men here are Frederick Humke.
Wilhelm Muller, Robert thinner,
George Nagel. Ludwig Schwartzschild
and Bruno Scherer. None of them can
speak English, although they under
stand a few words. Mr.. Buchholz and
Mr.. Droop acted as interpreters.

Reticent About the Boat.

The men were reticent about them
selves and the boat. and. as Mr.. Droop
expressed it. when he retold few
stories, he "wrung it from them by
laborious petition" He said that the
quotation from Hamlet" fitted the case
very nicely.
According to the men here, the crew
of the Deutschland are both surprised
and delighted by the welcome they
have received in the United States.
They had been under the impression
which, they say, is held by the great
majority of Germans. that the German
cause was unpopular here. and expected
a cold reception.
Their fears were nearly borne out upon
their arrival at Newport News. for quite
a little time elapsed before any attention
was paid to their boat: According to one
of the men the people OF the Virginia
city seemed to think that the Deutsch-
land was a "gespensterschin," or phan-
tom ship. After the first surprise wore
away whistles were blown and search
lights thrown on the boat in honor Of its
arrival.
AT Baltimore they also were well re-
ceived but according to the men, speak
ing through Mr.. Buchholz. Washington
has done best" They admire the city
greatly and are greatly impressed by the
wide streets and large areas of parking
They also thought the public buildings
magnificent, but, as one Of them said,
they "see many of them at home"

in Mexico. We have not done
SO. They have been done to
death together with many
Americans, and without re-
dress, because of anarchy due
much, it is the truth, to the
weakness of our policy in
handling the Mexican affair.
We talk of intervention, but
there will be none.
The only solution is the
elimination of Villa and Zap
alta gangs by Mexico herself.
Till this is done, there will be
no peace in Mexico, and nc
peace or security for Amer
leans and other foreigners.
1t is question for the Mex
lean government to solve.

AMERICANS MURDERED IN
MEXICO.

The murder of Americans
still goes on in the Southern
Republic. Seventeen Amer
lean mining men were taken
from a train and murdered by
a band of Mexicans. Carr
anza is the recognized pro-
visional president, and will
be- held responsible. but APP
parently the chief has but
little real control yet over the
Northern states of Mexico.
The troops of the republic
seem to avoid coming to host
ility against Villas band of
outlaws. Recently a Villa
band camped for some time
within three miles OF IOrreOn
where there is a Carranzista
garrison.
Uncle Sam is paying a heavy
price for the weakness Of our
Mexican policy. American
prestage is nil in Mexico and
they fear nothing because of
our Interpretation of the Mon
roe doctrine and because of
our inaction. Europe looks
to us to protect her subjects

Railroad Efficiency.

II would, obviously, be unfair for
one TO judge the railroads of this sec
ton of the country Ivy standards MOTTO
ed on the lines which operate in the
populous East. Passenger business
and freight business in the South is
far smaller than. for instance on the
Pennsylvania system. There is no
need for SO many trains, and no need
for such q perfected system as the
PENNSYLVANIA and other similarly sit
uated roads have. But, while we rec
ognige the fact that railroads operat-
ing in the South, often pass through
thinly settled districts, where BUSH
ness is slight. still. we cannot but
think that efficiency in many ways
can be promoted. Quite true, the pub
lie down here does not want such
quick service as is demanded else
where. II trains hereabouts would go
bullying into a station, some one yell
step lively" and then the train pull
out again in minute or two the
roads would get into much trouble.
Some man or woman, accustomed to
take it easy, and accustomed TO the
practice whereunder the train stands
at a small station several minutes,
would most likely enter a damage suit
when he or she got left, All sorts OF
mental anguish, malicious, wilful, deli.
berate. unlawful and pernicious allie
cations. would result from quick ap'
phcation of the greatest possible rail
road efficiency.
However. would it not be possible
for the roads to cut down the time
consumed in standing 1T stations
Some of our local trains will stand at
small station longer than a through
train stops at Philadelphia. the
agents of the road take their time
and other folks are inclined to do the
same. 1t appears to The News that
there could he reduction in time
consumed while the train is stand
1 ing still. Two or three minutes
should be time enough for all the bus
mess at the average station to be
transacted. The roadbeds might moi
stand faster running. and the income
The Brunswick news. [volume] (Brunswick, Ga.) 1906-2016, 1916-12-08

We believe, is OF sufficient to justify
the building Of finer roads, and the
purchasing of faster equipment.
Another point often noticed here
about is that, when train is marked
ten minutes late, 1t may be ten min
utes, twenty minutes, or an hour late.
Several days ago, at station in this
state, a train was marked ten minutes
late. That was a small matter, SO a
number Of passengers decided TO wait
for that train rather than make an
other possible connection. An hour
passed. and then the ten minutes late
became twenty minutes late on the
bulletin board. Finally, when some
one entered a kick, one of the agents
OF the company marked the train up
nearly two hours late, and it came in
uLLle mOfe Iudu Two uOuTb IdLt.
Would it not be possible for such
practices to be improved? In other
words. can the roads not be more
careful, and adopt an attitude which
recognizes accuracy? A minute, more
or less. is considered as nothing. But
every minute has sixty seconds in it,
and If this fact is remembered, many
a minute could be saved by the roads,
for a considerable amount of work
can be done within minute.
The News has small sympathy with
corporation batting. 1t recognizes the
troubles and trials of the railroads,
and such suggestions as it makes are
made with the best of will. These
are small matters, but an aggregate
of small matters makes efficiency.

Improving Our Highways.

If one for a moment doubts the de-
STABILITY of improved highways, their
doubt can be dispelled by going to a
territory where the new highway i'm
provement movement has not been in
augurated. says the Augusta Chron-
icle. People woh a decade ago were
content to travel their humble way
on the same old roads their fathers
before them travelled, are now content
with nothing less than the most mod
ern roads that real engineers can con-
struct, and one peculiar thing about
it is that the better the roads are
the better the people want them to
be.
Good roads constitute one of the
most important economic assets of
any section, and no matter how de-
sirably located from a geographical
standpoint a place may be; how fine
the place, how attractive the sur
roundings, unless good highways
permeate the territory and afford
avenues for travel and transportation
there Is not much inducement for
new corners to settle there.
The new government highway pro-
ject is meeting with cordial endorse
ment in most sections of the South,
and it is in localities where good
roads are found that the people are
most enthusiastic about the under
taking.
The University of Georgia has pro-
vided road expert service to various
counties where engineering work is
to be done. and the state highway
commission will become active in the
work in the construction OF improved
government roads within the next
month or two. The University OF
Georgia is going to cooperate with
the state highway commission and
with the county authorities in every
section. so as to insure wise expendl-
ture of the funds that are to be at
the disposal OF the county authorities,
for constructing roads through the CO.
operative movement.
Georgia has made wonderful strides
in road construction during the past
! few years. but just as soon as the
| counties begin building roads under
expert supervision, they will realize
lust how much money has been
souandered through lack of engi
neering preparation, To try to build
| road without an engineer is just ex-
actly like trying to build house with
ont an architect or designer to plan it.
! and the result always means loss OF
| money and in the end bungled job.

"The Millenial Northwest"

The New York Times says that the
first faint flush of the millennium
trembles in the Northwest, queer
place for dawn, but whimsicalities
are TO be looked for Ia HE feaIHa of
the initiative and referendum. All Of
which is evoked by the astonishing
course of certain citizens living on
Hood River in Oregon, who lately
went to their Congressman. Hon.
Nicholas j. Sinnott. and told him that
the scheme to build 100000 Federal
building In Hood River was pork"
fat and raw, and nothing but pork"
As honest men they objected to the
outlay, even though 1t would not cost
them cent and would give them
something which they do not pessess.
AS the Times says, unless Mr.. Sinnott
is robust man he must have thrown
fit. Not want pork" Why, who
ever heard Of such a thing?
This case has a parallel, neverthe-
less, in Hoquiam. Washington, where
a prosperous but virtuous people in
formed Congress that they didn't
want the Federal building which Con-
gress was about to foist upon the
town. That must have shocked the
public buildings and grounds commit.
tee into state of coma.
All hail the Hood Riverites and the
Hoquiamitcs, and may their tribe in
creased They know pork" when they
see it and are patriots enought not to
be hoggish. They are not fooled by
plusible Congressman who loudly pro-
claim that the charge that there is q
Congressional pork barrel" is false
and that the people should get all
they possibly can from the govern
ment in the way OF buildings and in
ternal improvements, whether they
really need them or not. Public senti'
ment is slowly turning against this in
discriminate and prodigal expenditure
of the peoples money and will event
ually reform the system, so that pub
lie buildings ana improvements will
be placed only where they are actual
ly needed and so that expenditures
will not be grossly disproportionate
to the necessities of a given situation.
The pork barrel ought to STAYED
in. Against this evil, Mr.. Hughes
launched many powerful attacks in
his campaign. and if 1t is not check
ed, it will yet become the paramount
issue in a Presidential contest.
