lO VA0tAss
sat once the statement was pre-
nared and given out that evening
which I knew would intensely gratlfy
all Americans. The message OF Rear
Admiral Gleaves, announcing the at
tacks. of course, had not been given
to the public, and consequently it had
been. spared anxiety. When the fore
boding ending their rejoicing W"ula
have exceeded anything l can ex-
press.
The statement which I gave 10 the
public conveyed the feeling Of all VINO
had been waiting and hoping Tor the
reassuring telegram.
"These facts were stated, not IN the
very words of the Gleaves cablegram,
for it is the immemorial policy OF the
denartment in time Of war not to en-
ploy the language of message com
ing in code. Otherwise it would be
easy for the enemy to learn the cl-
pher. Moreover the message OF the
rear admiral contained the names o.
the ships which for military reasons
are never given out during a war.
The language used, as reference TO
cablegrams will show, was therefore
not the Identical language of the cable
gram. but contained the material facts
of the safe arrival of the transports
and conveys, the deliverance from
submarine attacks, and the successfui
conclusion Of that part of the enter
prise.
All Safe.
'The important part OF the state
ment given to the public was that all
our soldiers and marines and ships
had been conveyed to France in safety.
Two of the group arrived without De-
ing attacked and two were unsuccess-
fullv attacked. The rejoicing. over
their arrival was heightened by the
fact that far outside the so-called
danger zone they had been twice un-
attacked. If the terms
battle and attacked in force are
open to criticism, the fact still remains
that the rejoicing warranted it. II
the torpedoes in either of the attacks
had sank American ships, the crlti-
