100000 TONS SHIPPING
DESTROYED BY U-BOATS
Ten Months Destruction Campaign
Claims Moro Than 900
British Vessels.
SUNK FASTER THAN BUILT
Loss Greater Than Total Construc-
ton of Any Nation in Any Year.
America to Build 100000 Tons
by End OF 1918.

WASHINGTON. December 1.-The
Germans have sunk more British ships
in the first ten months OF their unrc-
stricted U-boat warfare than Great
Britain or any other nation ever has
built in Il full year.
This and other startling revelations
were made to-day when Senator Gill
bert NJ. Hitchcock. of Nebraska made
lrublic detailed letter he had received
from Chairman Edward n. Hurley. of
the United States Shipping Board,
showing the status of tho American
shipbutlding program. Figures COM
piled from official reports show that
the Germans have sunk something over
900 British vessels. more than 3.Ooo,-
Oro dead weight. in ten months.
Chairman hurley Informed Senator
Hitchcock that the greatest shipbuild-
ing feat any nation had ever accom-
plshed was that of England in 1919
when 6S8 vessels of 2.S9S.299 tons were
! completed. The Japanese In 1914, Mr.
Hurley said, built forty.three ships of
ls2993 tons. This was the biggest ton
mage finished by any nation except
Great Britain
The American program, unless It is
held UP by unforeseen events, will pro-
duce 100000 tons by the end of 1918.
OF this amount, about 100000 tons
will be completed In 1918 alone, thus
surprising Great Eritains best effort
10y about 100000 tons. Details OF the
program were forwarded to Senator
Hitchcock in reply to his request for
Information.
The United States now has available
for transatlantic service $50 ships of n
total OF S,721,So tons. including
former German and Austrian vessels
and oil tankers.
AMERICA HAS BUILT
IIALF-MILLION TONS
Mr.. Hurley showed that between jan
uary l and June of this year Amer
lean yards had built 5o3.922 tons. OF
this total. hfty-fve vessels were OF
steel. 10000 tons. while thir,y-two
were Of wood 72.e?S tons. In this
same period. Mr.. Hurley stated, con-
tracts were made for 3st new ships OF
grand aggregate of e.7S4,3s7 tons
/ Senator Hitchcock asked for details
on the labor question and on friction
between shipbuiiders. the government
and the steel men.
MT. 1luVley referred MN 10 the De-
partment OF Labor on strike troubles
and refused TO go into details publicly
on the other questions.
In reply 10 questions regarding the
activities OF the new shipyards. Mr.
Hurley declared that all of them that
have contracts now have the ground
cleared, end will have their buildings
and ways completed. ready TO start
actual construction work OH the, YES
GELS they are to produce early in 1918.
The new Hog Island yard must de-
liver fifty ships before November /,
1918, he said, and the Port Newark
yard must furnish seven in June. The
New Bristol Point plant must have
four ships ready for service In May.

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, December 1.-The Hinden-
burg troops yesterday made their first
prctcntious attempts to GUST tho Brit
ish from the territory won by Gem
eral Byng last wook. They have thus
far failed TO accomplish their object,
although they captured a considerable
stretch of territory in the Gonnelieu
region. just south of the scene OF tho
recent British offensive.
Two great attacks were delivered
yesterda? morning. one extended from
Moeuvres to Bourbon wood; the other
was along approximately 1".oo0-yard
front between Ecndhuile, on the south.
and Crevccoeur. on the north. Both
assaults were made in very strong
force. and the infantry was supported
By fire from newly concentrated Ger
man guns.
In the northern attack the Germans
succeeded y in pushing down between
Moeuvres and Bourbon wood for ! con-
siderable distance. but were hurled
back by n counterattnck, after par
ticularly sansuinary lighting. The line
in this section to-day WAS virtually as
ii stood before the Germans attacked.
In the southern battle the Germans
broke through the British front south
OF Villers-Gu islain and. By executing
Il turning movement to the north. sue
ceeded in cnvelop!nS Gaucha wood.
Gouzeaucourt. Councillor and La Vac
Querie temporarily.
HAND-TO-HAND FIGHTING
OF MOST TERRIBLE NATURE
After the first shock OF the attack
by superior number OF forces, the
British organized a counterattack, and
sent up re-enforcements. The British
troops were thrown against GourEeau-
court, which represented the enemy's
extreme advance, distance of about
1000 yards. The Germans got into
Gouzeaucourt about 10 o'clock in the
morning, and from that hour until 5
o'clock in the afternoon hand-to hand
lighting of q most terrible nature took
. place there.
The British were outnu:nbcred. but
SO furious was their onslaught that
they pushed the Germans back from
I the town and reoccupied it,
Just east of Gouzeaucvurt is a rJg e.
and the Germans had occupied this in
/ force. The British continued their at
/ tacks. and gradually forced the enemy
! from this iid6e to the lower ground
! beyond. AS a result the ridge was re.
taken By the British. together with
Gauche wood. southeast OF Gouzeau-
court. and they pushed on the western
! edge of Councillor.
In the meantime. British counterat
tacks 1T La Vacquerie had proceeded
successfully. and the Germans were
thrown out of this place with heavy
losses. The German line this morning
was just west OF Eillers-Guislain
which represented an advance o: abou,
! 1900 yards. At Councillor the enemy
had made very little advance, and his
gain farther north had virtually been
nullihed in many places. AZ no poiE,
Is the advance so great as in the
Eiliers-Guislain sector.

Washington, Nov. 17.-Provost
Marshal General Crowder today an
nounced that the new draft question
naire" will be given out to men in
each district on December 10, and
that 5 per cent of the registered men
are expected to hand in the lists each
day.
Volunteer medical boards are being
assembled to assist in making the
classifications.
The new regulations repeal all pre-
ceding regulations. They cancel all
exemptions and discharges under the
old system. All registrants are re-
stored to their original status.
The new classifications make more
liberal concessions, leaving men with
dependents to be called last. 1t is
practically certain that men with le-
gitimate grounds of dependency under
the old regime will get the same un-
der the new regulations.

Los Alamitos, Nov. 17.-Through
the Better Beet Culture Committee,
ABA Central building, Los Angeles rep
resentiNg all the seven sugar factories
of Southern California. an abundant
supply of labor will be provided for
the beet growers for the 1918 crop.
This committee, at an expense of
nearly 100000, imported about l,60t
.Mexicans, under bond with the Unit.
ed States government, for the past
season, without which the growers
could not have harvested the crop and
would have lost over $1,0OO,0O0. They
propose to repeat their 1917 plan.
The Better Beet Culture Committee
also gives it's services free; so also
will the state and federal authorities
and the Sugar Bowl Journal in assist
ing every grower to solve his cultural
problems, thereby increasing the pro-
duction.
The world demands an increased
production of sugar, with increased
acreage from the drainage systems
and increased production through
proper cultural methods. Southern
California can add 3O,000,00O pounds
next season to the output, or enouoh
sugar to supply 100000 soldiers fol
