THE MAN BEHIND THE GIN

A DMIRAL DEWEY, in the cours
"A of an interview in which he re-
joiced that public demand has
finally induced Congress to provide the
country with an adequate Navy, paid
this excellent tribute to the men be-
hind the guns:
The American nav ship for ship,
and CUR for gun, is the equal OF
any corresponding number of ships
afoat. We are fortunate in our
enlisted men. Man for man. no other
know OF them, they could still fight
our ships If every commissioned
officer aboard should be put out Of
viction hat Congress acted most
wisely when it provided that naval
apprentices should be eligible for
shouldn't they be? they Come from
the same source whence we have
taken our appointees to the Naval
Academy.
After all it is the men who man the
ships who win victories. Without
courage and skill the biggest battle
ship in the world is no more than an
unwieldy mass of junk. In this coun-
try especially, where promotion in
every line of endeavor is open to the
young man of energy and ability, it
ought to be possible for the humblest
enlisted man to lift himself to the
highest office in the gift of the Navy.
The gulf between the enlisted man and
the officer should be narrowed suf1-
GENTLY to permit the ambitious sea-
mar to enter the ranks of midship-
men. The more opportunities for ad-
vancement there are in the Navy the
easier recruiting will be, and one of
the problems of the future will be get
ting a sufficiently large number of en-
listed men to man the gigantic fleet
about to be built.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, Oct.
f6.-Depending only upon
the endurance of their crews,
ten submarines of the type OF
the lob. reported raiding
along the Atlantic coast,
could effectively blockade
the whole Atlantic coast of
the United States!
And there would be no need of
their coming to the surface, for
they could get all their supplies
and provisions from undersea
bases along the coast and from
submarine merchantmen, like the
Deutschland.
That is the opinion of Simon

EAST MACHIAS, Maine, Oct.
16.-The thrill which pervaded
this little village when it was
rocked by an explosion Saturday,
causing villagers to believe that
the base of supplies for the Ger
man submarine had been discov-
cred, gradually wore off today.
Carroll Dennison, owner, now
believes that his little building
located in the middle of the East
Machias river, was blown up out
of spite. Certainly no great
amount of explosives let go, for
the walls of the building still
stand, only the roof being blown
away.
Villagers straining their ears
through the stormy night, heard
boats, probably warships, passing
up and down the shallow river,
but these were not noticed by
coast guards at the mouth.
