An Atlantic Port.-Another German
submarine has been sunk by the guns
of a merchantmen, if the gunners of
n British freighter which arrived here
are correct in their assumption that
three shots which struck an undersea
boat off Brest, France, sent her to the
bottom. The Britisher encountered
the submarine on her last outward
trip from this port.
One shot destroyed the periscope.
The second and third were followed
by an explosion and the submarine
disappeared. The gunners were con-
fident the submarine went down in

CALLING VOLUNTEERS.

A call has been made for 500, 00C
volunteers for service in the army
There will be a great many responses
to this call. but it is doubtful II
there will be half enough to fill up
| the ranks that are needed to be
| filed at the present time AS a mat.
ter of fact, the volunteer system has
played out in a country like ours,
where there is no military training,
and where the young men know so
little Of army life, and who are also
lacking in appreciation of the debt
which they owe to the country Most
of the young men are brought up to
believe that the country owes them
all and they owe little or nothing in
return.
It is more than likely that Uncle
Sam will have TO go out in the by
ways and hedges and pick up the
men for his army through the sys-
tenn President Wilson has already
recommended, or select drafting.
Under this system all classes Of citi-
zens share alike. Every state and
every community has to furnish its
quota, and no more. A few indi-
viduals may be gotten who would
prefer to remain at home, but the
fact that the army is quickly mabi-
lized and placed upon a war footing,
will be worth great deal in the eff
feet which 1t Will have upon our
enemies.
The German people do not realize
that the United States is in this war
to stay, and that we are going to put
an army in the field, If necessary, or
that we are, at least. going to put an
immense army upon a war footing.
They look upon America as a negi-
gible quantity. When they find out
that we mean business, 1t will not be
long before they will be willing to
make terms that will be acceptable |
10 the allies against whom they are
lighting now. The reports frem all
Of the fronts in Europe show that the |
Germans are losing out every day.
and that it will be impossible for |
hem to keep up their struggle much |
longer.
With these things so apparent, it |
Il doubtful il the United States will |
aver have to send a man across the
water. 1t is of the utmost importance,
however, that we should be ready to
leliver hard blow when we reach |
he place where we have to strike.

THE COST OF PREPAREDNESS.

The general impression prevails
that, in proportion to the protection
given. the armies of Europe are cno.-
nous burdens upon the Taxpayers.
Apparently. not only is this nn.
true, but the aggregate burden is noe
as great--even in Germany-as it Is
in the United States.
William Freeman, whose book,
Awake. u. S. A." has attracted much
attention and is acknowledged to be
the best compendium OF facts, figures
and enlightening statistics on pre-
paredness, has the following illumi-
mating statement to make IN regard
10 the relative cost OF preparedness
In Germany. Switzerland, Austria
and America.
sHe says: 1T cost Germany, before
the war. about $260, 100000 year to
maintain standing army of nearly
SEQ 900 men, training 100000 new men
per year.
During the last year. we have had
a standing army. on paper. of 100000
men. though our mobile forces in the
united States have been less than
$4,000.
"rhe appropriation In this last year
for the army maintenance aisne was
Ia round numbers s26o,oOO.0oo; thus
we are paying at the rate of $780,
100000 for 100000 men, while Ger
many pays about the same money Cor
e4sht times the number OF men"

naoney with The sums spent under the
luniyersal service system OF Switzor-
Hand and Australia.
