NAVY RECRUITER
RETURNING HERE
AL OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED
TO YOUNG MEN.

Quartermaster A. o. Mundale, sta
toned at Jacksonville recruiting Of
fee Of the navy, and who was recruit
ing officer aboard the torpedo boat
destroyer Reid during her stay here
Gala Week, has received orders to be
in Brunswick beginning Tuesday next
for the period of a week or more.
He will be at the postoffice from s
a. nj. until 5 p. m. each day, and will
be glad to answer questions regard
ing navy life and opportunities, not
only to applicants, but also TO fathers
and mothers of desiring applicants.
The officers did not have the prop.
er amount of time to follow up in
quiries and explain to parents and
guardians what the navy has to Of
fer, when he was here recently. Most
Of the inquiries made by Brunswick
lads while the Reid was in port, were
about the opportunities for education
and to learn trades.

indications That Germany Has
Smuggled Mail to This
Section Revealed.
MYSTERIOUS LETTERS COME
Direct fIarbOr Channel, Deep
Sound and Many Private
Landing Places and Facilities
Point to This City.

Because mail has been received in
this vicinity from Germany which
was written since the last public ar
rival OF the German submarine Dent
schland, which fact became known
in Brunswick yesterday, it is taken
as an indication that the Deutsch-
land or some other underwater craft
from Germany. has made a secret
port connection with the United
States since the breaking off OF dip
lomatic relations. Persons who are
BELIEF that such is the case. and that
the most likely port under such sec
ret circumstances is Brunswick
1t is pointed out that this city has
the only straight, unhampered deep
water channel entrance. and that the
sound between Jekyl and St. Simons
Island has not only the depth, but
also the area to hold without incon-
venience a great fleet cf submarines.
as well as surface water vessels.
A submarine entering the sound
could easily rise to the surface. flash
its signals to the secret agents that
undoubtedly would be waiting for
such and then unload it's cargo on
a barge without even tieing up at a
dock. according to unanimous opin-
ion of local seafaring folks.
The unprotected features Of the
great Brunswick harbor with its many
undeveloped islands and marshes
around which SO many deep-water
creeks and streams OF navigable
width flow is another factor leading
to the suspicion that Brunswick has
been the scene Of recent international
smuggling by a German submarine
Added efforts will be made to have
the government provide the protec-
ton Of the harbor as called for in
specifications of the United States
war college, and to have it imme-
diately, declare certain parties here
who do not wish to divulGe their
names. The board Of trade has been
negotiating with the war department
to the same end for some time.

ATLANTA GIVES
JOBS To GUARDS
ALL PATRIOTS WHO RESPONDED
TO CALL TO BORDER WILL
ALSO BE HONORED.

Atlanta, March 17.-If other cities
treat their National Cuardsmen as
nicely as Atlanta is treating hers,
there will be no reason for the boys
to regret their service on the Mexi-
can border, aside from the considera-
tions of improved health and increas-
ed efficiency which distinctly made
their sojOurn in Texas a worthwhile
investment
Not only are Atlanta's guardsmen
being given back the jobs they held
before they left, or other jobs as good
or better, but a fund of several thou
sand dollars is being raised to give
them a big dinner and dance and re.
ward them with medals of honor for
border service.
In this connection it is interesting
TO note that number Of business
concerns whose guardsmen were
members of the guard before the call
for border duty are not only placing
them back in their old positions. but
are paying them in full for the time
they spent in active service.

Adjustment for Trouble
Without Farley.

Washington. March 1.-THE su-
preme court of the United States will
settle the controversy between the
railroads and their operating EN-
ployes. Officials at Washington from
President Wilson down are convinced
tonight that postpOuement OF the

as arranged in New York today by
the governments mediators, would
end all danger Of an outbreak at this
time when the nation is confronted
with the international crisis
While no announcement is forth.
coming from the white house tonight,
there is no effort to disguise the sat,
isfaction with which the president
received the news Of the postpone
ment of the railroad clash.
There is firm conviction expressed
in Washington that the supreme
court will deliver its decision Mon
day as to the constitutionality of the
Adamson law giving railroad en-
ployes an eight-hour day at the pres
ent ten-hour pay. The court has had
the case under consideration for
weeks and it's willingness to expedite
settlement OF the controversy was
demonstrated VIXEN it halted other
business to hear arguments in the
case early in January.
1t is believed that legal convictions
Of the court will result in a decision
which will so far maintain the Adam
son law as to satisfy the railroad en-
ployes that their interests will be
protected and their demands met.
Federal departments have contin-
ued preparations to meet any condi-
tions that may be brought forward.

ORDER TO 60 OUT
HELD 40 HOURS
Indications OF BrOtIlerhOOd'S S
Making Concessions Are
Given.

New York, March lit is indi-
Gated tonight that the railroad broth
erhoods will insist only on the appli
cation OF an eight-hour day that the
threatened stupendous railroad strike
will thus be averted.
The 4S-hour armistice called this
afternoon has given the government
spOkesmen ample time to bring home
their arguments to both employees and
managers of the railroad systems
There will be no strike" was the
cOncensus Of opinion.
The compromise will probably be
this, according to expressions from
many who have followed the railroad
situation: The railroads will grant q
strict eight-hour day The unions will
abandon some of their demands for
extra pay.
Significance is attached to the call
ing Of two days armistice instead
of one Since this period will ex-
pire Monday night. legal action could
be taken before the strike would be
called. The supreme court would
have opportunity to give findings on
the constitutionality of the Adamson
eight-hour law by Monday night. II
declared valid, the whole complexion
OF the strike situation will be al
tered.
Secretary Lane and other members
OF the council of defense. who were
selected by President Wilson to act
as strike mediators, will meet again
tomorrow morning with the brother.
hood chiefs. Later these government
representatives will confer with the
railroad managers.
After the final meeting this after
noon, spokesmen of both sides OF the
controversy held separate and secret
meetings. The government repre-
sentatives seem to hold the upper
hand and are apparently sure of sue
cess.
Samuel Gompers has not appeared
here tonight, and his whereabouts
are unknown.
