Won Hindenburg is far more i'm.
pressive military man than publicist
His utterances in the German press have
not carried conviction to the allied world,
and they must have failed to reassure
the German people His latest declara-
ton lacks something of the cock -sureness
and arrogance of his early statements
when he was shifted from the eastern
front to the western to annihilate the
Franco. British line. For instance, he
now refers to the situation of the war
as follows: IF we hold our ground
against enemy attacks until the subma
rine war has done its work the war is
won for us" In former days Won Hin
denburg never would have admitted
doubt to pass his lips about the ultimate
result. Now, however, the continued
pressure of the British and the French
following the Hindenburg strategic re-
treat" of last winter and the impervious-
ness Of the French and British to violent
counter attack have forced the unwel-
come truth upon the field leader Of the
German forces that there Is very large
IF" before complete German victory.
The old days Of the swsshbuckling ar.
rogance Of the war lords of Germany
sre past; there is now grim work to
hang on.

THE LEssENED BRITISH SHIPPING
LOSS

Granting that the navy departments
official statement of the battle between
the warships conveying the army trans
ports and German submarines was cor
rect, therein may be found the reason
why the British commerce losses during
the past week were reduced so materially
over the figures of the previous week.
The American navy secretary went at
some length to acquaint the American
people with the fact that the conveying
warships had a trying experience with
the submarines on at least two distinct
occasions, large number of the under
sea vessels having apparently laid in
wait for the coming of the ships bearing
the thousands of American soldiers. If
that line Of action was carried out by
the German admiralty it must needs fol-
low that the submarine watchers had to
be placed at various points inasmuch as
the exact routing of the transports prob
ably did not get to the German adj |
miralty by means OF the so-called spy
system. The placing of a large number
of submarines at scattered points in the
eastern Atlantic would necessitate the
calling. off of some of the undersea boats
operating against commerce ships be.
cause Germany, despite the claims, has
not a plenitude OF submarines. That
perhaps may account for the known fact
that British shipping sustained such rela.
lively small losses during the week just
reported on. We do not think that the
anti-submarine campaign has itself ad-
ganced to such a stage of efficiency as to
BE held responsible wholly for the more
result, encouraging from the
standpoint OF ourselves and our allies.
There are still gloomy times ahead for
British shipping; but the ultimate result
,eems practically certain that the sub
marine campaign will fall short OF its
lin.

The record of not having lost big
gun on the western front since April in
1915 is something of which the British
may well be proud, for at the same time
they have been capturing a large number
of the guns of highest ealibre from the
Germans. This condition is much in
contrast to the record of the early part
of the war.

The announcement that the mines at
Coppertield are to be reopened as soon
as the preliminary arrangements can be
made will no doubt be welcome news to
the people in the Fairlee Vershire sec
ton, where the copper is located. The
old village of Copperfeld viii have to be
restored entirely, as the various build
ings which once made up the thriving
village were either burned or torn down
for other construction work, while much
of the machinery of operation was also
removed in the general evacuation fol-
lowing the suspension of the business
many years ago. The desert of waste
flowing from the mouths of the old mines
made melancholy reminder of once
populous and prosperous days in that
region and furnished more or less of an
awesome spectacle for the chance visit
or. The transformation that will come
with the resumption of mining will be
welcome.
