BRITAIN SEES LONG WAR AND MUST HAVE MORE MEN
Wilson Beasts
 Hughes Badly
President Makes First Attack and
 Calls Opponent Ignorant.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 13.-Presi- dent Wilson delivered a severe attack on Hughes here while speaking to the crowds that greeted him when he came to be present at the Centennial, and another remarkable fact was that the crowd cheered him to the echo. He condemned Hughes or any other man who tried to revive sectionaism in this country. Such a man, the speaker declared is unworthy of the confidence of the nation and betrayS provinciaism and ignorance. As the President warmed up he went even further and said such a man is in politics as an office seeker and not for the nations service. Mir. Wilson even went on to describe such a man as des picable. Then came the great mo- ment of the speech: My policy is to put up or shut up" cried the President "and l am willing to take my own medicine" At this the audience jumped to its feet and cheered for exactly four minutes. In the other parts of his speech Mir. Wilson said that the New Nationalism demands unity, mobilization, coordination and chiefly cooperation. He later decIar- ed that he came to talk of good roads and not of politics and he emphasized the material and spiritual values of the establishment of traversible highways throughout the country

MOSQUITO FLEET PROVES
RARE VALUE TO NEW YORK
Recent Maneuvers Show That Enemy
Could Not Surprise City.

New York,-Recent maneuvers Of the
mosquito feet of privately owned
power boats in New York harbor
proved such success, in the opinion
OF navy department experts, as to dem
onstrate conclusively that no enemy
fleet could approach this city undiscov-
cred, nor could any submarine hope to
enter the port.
Both the navy officers who conducted
the game and the citizens who took
part In 1t have learned the astonishing
powers of small, fast motorboats in
spying out an enemy at sea and direct
ing the attack.
The recent maneuvers were from
Boston to the Delaware capes on the
Atlantic coast. The division about New
York was under the direction of Cap
tain L. A. Kaiser Of the battleship New
Jersey and Lieutenant J. w. Wilcox,
while E. S. Willard had charge of the
hydrOaeroplane division. Through their
EFFORTS the maneuvers went through
without hitch.
At Block island the attacks and
counterattacks against the entrances
to the sound and the home fleet of bat
tleships protected by the mosquito
fleet resulted, the naval umpires have
reported, In the enemy being spotted
and driven back in every case.
Trubee Dawson and Paul McCul-
Tough, the two young aviators who
took part, helped materially by discov-
ering the approach of the enemy fleet
some sixty miles out from Gravesend
bay. They did 1t in heavy squat and
fog. under the most trying conditions.
