Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
GEORGETOWN, Del, June 2l-Few
persons in the United States can boast
of having a pair of shoes seventeen
years old in a good state of preservation
and in use every week during that long
period. Mrs. Nathan Messick, residing
on Laurel street, this town, believes she
has the Oldest pair in Sussex county, if
not IN Delaware. Seventeen years ago
she purchased the shoes from William
G.. Bryan, who at that time kept a coun-
try store near st. Thomas Church, be,
tween here and laurel, and since that
time has kept them TO wear on sun
days. They have never been half-soled
nor been ripped anywhere. Had the
shoes been worn every Sunday-and
Mrs. Messick can recall but few
Sundays that they have not been worn
she has worn them SS4 days, or
nearly two and half years. For pair
of shoes 10 be worn for more than two
years continuously, without any repairs,
Is a remarkable record. Mrs. Messick
prizes them highly and states that from
appearances they can be used for five
or six years 20 come. A pair of shoes
that can be worn for a year every day
at the present time are considered re-
markably good.

a rock fragment and a club through

started for the telephone to call help.
While the missiles did not hit her,
they shattered several panes Of glass
and gave her a shock.

Seven hundred of the shipyard and
car shop No. workingmen walked

list which they have presented TO
the corporation. and this they de-
mand with an eght-hOur day. The
riveters want "a 10 per cent wage in
crease with an eight-hour day. The
bolter-ups and the reamers are out

GERMANS renew
Advocacy Of j
BOAT Campaign
Photo - Sanborn
By CARL w. ACKERMAN.
| nited Press staff Correspondent


BERLIN. June 2l.-~Taking advantage
Of growing indifference to American
opinion. advocates Of strong submarine
policy have reopened the campaign for
more effective use of the German
U-boats.
The German people now realize that
hostlities will not end this summer and
may drag into next year. Faced with
this fact. they are united in the desire
to see the war pushed with the utmost
,igor until the Allies are brought to
terms. This feeling, spreading grsdu-
ally throughout the empire during the
past few weeks. has been seized upon
as a weapon by the men who condemned
Chancellor Won Bethmann- llollweg for
Welding to the United States in the re-
cent submarine controversy.
The Chancellor at the present mo-
ment has the upper hand. But the
recent slackening Of the press cen
sorship has been followed by some
bold statements regarding the effec-
tiveness of the submarine weapon
which Germany still possesses and
by renewed activity on The part OF
the Navy League. II is impossible to
forecast what the result will be if
regard for American opinion gives
way more and more to the determina-
ton for aggressive measures to bring
the war to a victorious end.
Europe's unfriendly reception OF
President Wilson's peace talk before
the League to Enforce Peace perhaps
caused interest in Germany to veer
away from America. At any rate it is
held here that the Presidents failure
to obtain a response has not added
TO his influence.
During recent conversations with
public men 7 have noted general
change in their attitude toward Amer
ica Summed up the German view
right now is about this:
Sixty per cent. Of Americans are
against us. Thirty per cent. are for
us. Ten per cent. are Indifferent
Nothing we can do will change Ameri-
can opinion in a way that will help
us win the war We should go ahead
then. concentrating all our energy on
