What Profiteth It For a Nation to Save Skin
 If It Finally
 Loses Soul.
ASKS GREAT QUESTION
Foreign Relations Must Be Kept Above Party Considerations
 for All Time.

NEW YORK, Jan. lS.-Unless the present problems confronting the United States are settled soon and rightly. the nation must mourn in sackcloth and ashes" for its folly and heedlessness, declared Lindley M. Garrison, former secretar yof war, in an address before the New York State bar association.
 Tn that day the eXecration heaped upon those who led the nation as tray" he asserted, will differ in degree only from that heaped upon those who saw the light and knew the way, but had hearts too faint to lead on the proper way"
 Mir. Garrison declared that the country's foreign relations must be kept above party consideration and consonant with national traditions. The charges of the wlsest anI best leaders the nation can produce will be taxed, he said, 10 determine the part the United States should play in world policies.
 "To avoid unnecessary conflict this nation should do all consistent with selE.respect to avoid war" he con. tinued. q will waste no time dis cussing avoidance of war by supine surrender of our self-reSpect or by refusal to defend and maintain the nations interests against the nations enemies-for what profiteth 1t a na- tion to save it's skin if t lose its soul?"

LIFE ON A SUBMARINE
IS A CONSTANT HORROR
BRITISH NAVAL OFFICER GIVES
PEN PICTURE OF GERMAN
UNDERsEA AGONY.

The life of a submarine sailor il
one Of nerve shattering, mind wreck
ing agony. A British naval officer
writing in a newspaper here, gives {
graphic account of the horrors en-.
dured by the German under-sea sail.
ors, summing up with few tragic
words the end Of U-boat which haC
become entangled in the netting under
a mine field.
The account follows:
I'VE hear great deal of the sue
cess of the German submarine. Its
failures are cloaked in an -impene-
trable secrecy. 1t requires an effort
to visualize all the sweating agony OF
fear all the minutes that are CEN
turtles in passing when deathly dis
aster is half fathom away, all the
nerve racking intensity of mental con-
centration that never ceases while the
submarine is at sea. Perhaps only
the man with submarine experience
can even guess at the price Of such
warfare.
1.-THE Germans pay for whatever
successes they have / offer them no
sympathy on that score. 1t is a dirty
game, anyway. but 1t takes full -grown
men to play 1t.
Have you ever thought what 1T
means for German submarine to get
out into the Atlantic? 1t has to dodge
mines In the Blight of Helgoland 1t
has to crawl In half submerged con-
dltion, ready to plunge at any mo-
ment, across the North sea to certain
perturbed waters tossing in the north
that are the only possible outlet, and
every inch of those waters is patrolled
by British Observation-Disclosures, motor
launches, trawlers and the like, all
carrying every device known to man
that will kill the submarine.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1917-08-23
Worse remains behind. A smudge

Worse remains behind. A smudge
of smoke on the horizon, and down
the submarine goes into darkness.
The thudding of the Diesel engines Is
replaced by the soft purr Of the cleo
trio motors. Then across the silence
noise. The commanding officer looks
al his coxswain by his side. In the
thoughts OF both Is the one idea.
'trawlers,' and trawlers carry Crap
pling hooks that will pierce the thin
skin of submarine in a score Of
places as they are towed along at a
leisurely pace.
Then the note of the trawler's pro-
whrr. Destroyers! The U-boat Is In
an unhealthy corner
"The commander dives lower and
swerves toward the coast. There Is
only one thing to do-to rest many
fathoms down on the sandy bottom till
1t Is dark.
THAT is what happens under the
happiest circumstances. There are
Others. There. may be no sandy bed,
only treacherous rocks, with a lumpy
sea running that means banging and
battering the frail hull till it leaks.
Then the U-boat must crawl on under
water hour after hour while those
telltale propellors throb on the sur
face. The engineer begins to look Sc
rious Electric storage batteries will
only run for "a few hours. There is
perhaps enough power to keep her
going another couple Of minutes.
"The bows suddenly swoop down
ward, though the diving rudder Is set
upward; the stern cocks up to an in
credible angle A trap. A mine net,
probably, or some new continuance
that is the ever haunting fear
something new. something from
which there Is no known method of
escape, some peril that has not been
faced before
There Is silence of the tomb in
the steel hull. No. one speaks. Then
another explosion.
"A few oily patches on the surface
of the sea, a few bubbles that burst
and are gone. That Is all the slayers
see. Later query mark Is put against
one more report in the anti-submarine
department"
