Washington, Sept. 1.-THE steamer
Westwego reported that while in com.
pany with other American steamers
six submarines attacked the ships of
the coast of France Sept 5.
Two steamers were sunk and prob.
ably all the submarines. the navy de.
rartment announced. Following IL
the official text OF the announcement:
THE navy department received a
report from Paris which stated that
the steamer Westwego, while cruising
with several other ships. was attacked
by massed force OF Elk submarines
of the coast Of France, the result of
the attack being that two OF the
steamers attacked were sunk and
probably all Of the submarines were
lost"
The Westwego is an American mer.

The navy department deducted from
the report that Germany has adopted
the definite policy OF massing her U.
boats for attack, apparently having
learned of the recent announcement
that the American ships were going in
groups under convoy.
The steamers attacked were bound
for Europe under convoy of American
warships

EDGE URGES FINAL DRIVE
FOR SELECTIVE DRAFT
30 SpeoiaI Oorresponfent.

BY Special Correspondent.
Trenton, May 29.-As q final word
| In the drive to accomplish q whirlwind
| registration under the selective SER
vice statute, for all men In New Jer-
sey who have attained their twenty
first birthday and have not attained
their thirty-frst birthday on June g.
Our Df d6snaafI5ge issues the following
teAuocc, knAr>-.,.s,ys
cooperation Of every yg-thol. every bus.
mess, every industry. every church and
every private organization In the great
task OF making this gigantic registra-
ton a great success. Every bit of this
cooperation will be necessary IL we are
to succeed. 1t Is tremendous task
and particularly so on account of the
brief space of time In which 1t must
be absolutely accomplished.
"Oflcially, the state is splendidly or
ganized and equipped for the work. In
a word, 1t is ready. ALI that Is needed
to make 1t the success which we feel
1t will be Is for unofficial New Jersey
to supply the enthusiasm and the help.
SO far, this cooperation has been
splendid. My earnest hope is that
there shall be no slackening OF the
pace.
II respectfully urge all clergymen In
the state TO arrange Tor o special SER
vice In advance of June s. The pull
pit affords q splendid opportunity for
advancing the principle of selective
draft and the patriotic call of regis
tration day. Obviously the act of men
In dedicating their lives to their coun-
try and thus consecrating the cause Of
vindicating humanity and human
rights. Is sanctif1ed and warrants pray
erful devotion and all the moral
strength of our religious institutions
The duty Of all clergymen in this par
ticular, as / see 1t, cannot be too
strongly emphasized.
II call attention to the request which
has been made by the New Jersey
Committee on Public Safety, for the
decoration Of polling places with the
national colors, for the ringing of
church and fire bells and the sound
ing Of whistles at the hour of opening
of the polls on the morning of juno s,
for parades and public demonstra-
tions wherever possible. for the deco
rating Of those who register with some
emblem symbolic Of their distin-
guished service to their country, for the
bold display by election officers of
posters in setting forth-in varied Ian
guages-the state proclamation con-
cerning this service and for all other
activities tending to stimulate the pat
riotic impulses and create the proper
spirit for the most democratic day In
the history of the country"

Bros. & Co. It is purposed to aug
ment the roster Of team leaders to
twenty.
Campaign headquarters have been
established on the second floor, front.
of the Y. M. 9. A. building. A corps
of stenographers, typists and clerks
are busily at work selecting, carding,
filing and listing the names of pros
pective gtvers and doing the hundred
and one things preliminary to the act
ual launching OF the campaign.
The $65,000 for which campaign
Is to be started next month for the
benefit of the Perth Amboy City Hos
pital will do much toward relieving
some of the present conditions and
securing some additions which are
greatly needed at this institution.
The above amount will wipe out the
present indebtedness of the hospital,
putting the institution on an even
financial basis. 1t will guarantee the
continued service to Perth Amboy
and to neighboring towns of an insti-
tuition. 1t will make it possible for
the hospital to continue without d.
minution of Its generous service to
those who are unable to pay the full
amount of their expenses. Such cases
number moro than seventy-f1ve per
cent. of the total admitted to the hos
pital. This money will provide a spe-
cial maternity ward, an automobile
ambulance service and also an In
fants' ward which is badly needed at
the present time.
