u-BoATS NOW EMPLOY
SMOKE SCREEN DEVICE

New York.-New German de-
vices for aiding U-boat frightful-
ness are reported by passengers
on an American liner just ar
rived in port from England.
One is the use Of a smoke
screen in which the submarine
may conceal itself while attack
ing, escaping or submerging.
The smoke screen has been used
for months by battleships, de-
stroyers and merchantmen. Its
first use by a submarine was re-
ported in the warnings of u
boat off the Atlantic coast.
The other device is the use Of
mirrored periscopes. By coat
ing them with silver the peri
scopes reflect the surrounding
water and become invisible a
couple of hundred yards away.
It is believed this explains why
survivors OF several ships lately
sunk saw no evidence Of a SUBJ
marine before OF after the at
tack.

his motto, that he will never consent
to play to the gallery as even the best
generals are sometimes tempted to do.
1t is Haig's great merit that he bides
his time and only strikes when he is
able to strike in real earnest. Perish
ing resembles the British leader in this
respect, and Europe has had enough
war experience to know that these
are the men who get the real results
at the least possible cost in lives, and
that though they have little to show on
the war map, they are steadily, per-
sistently, relentlessly wearing down
the toughest foe that ever took the
field.
What can be said, however, without
giving any information to the enemy is
that here in France Americans Will
cooperate throughout the winter in
the gigantic task of preparing for the
death blow. The details cannot be
discussed, but the ground has been
cleared for colossal amount of work,
embracing all branches that go to
make for the efficient operation of a
modern war machine, and big share
will be taken over during the bad
weather by Americans, not only in
the United States, but also in France.
And this quite aside from the training
of the fighting men and the education
of the officers in the latest phases OF
warfare.
The result of all this activity will
be that next spring the entente allies
will possess a supereminent war ma
chine, gunned, manned and equipped
in an unprecedentedly complete and
magnificent manner. 1t was correct to
say last winter that in 1917 the entente
allies would develop striking force
which could not be exceeded in 1918
if the war continued. But at that
time the Intervention Of the United
States was only dim possibility; the
revolution in Russia and the collapse
Of her army were foreseen by nobody.
Tough Problem for Enemy.
AS the situation stands at present,
with the United States adding her
mighty power to the common lot, and
with a still unextinguished hope that
the Muscovites may be brought back
to their old aggressive fighting, men
belonging to the inner circles of Eur
rope affirm their belief that the entente
allies will be able to confront linden
burg with a far harsher problem IN
1918 than they could hal" hoped to
put up to him in 1917.
Next spring the British army VIII
still be at top strength, for in the past
summer Haig has put forth nothing
like his maximum effort, and in con-
sequence has suffered losses far below
the figures anticipated at the British
war Office. When it was seen that the
Russian army must drop out OF all
offensive plans this summer and tnat
Germany would be able to develop an
unexpected strength upon the western
front, the Franco-British policy natur-
ally became more conservative. Inc
building up of the American armies
has confirmed the wisdom of this
course, which looks to the aceumula-
ton of an irresistible power before the
last continuous, annihilating blows are
delivered upon all possible fronts.
