London, Feb. 20 The use of
machinery. particularly American
machinery, in place of hand labor.

there in an open boat of the master of

Slade, with a story of how the famous
Seeadler had stranded on Mopeha Is
land, after destroying three American
schooners and how members OF the
German crew had set out for further
depredations on commerce on other
captured vessels.
1t was August 2 when the Seeadler
was abandoned and on August 81 her
commanding officer with three officers
and two men set out in a motor sloop,
provided with machine guns, rifles,
bombs and two months supplies. On
September the remainder of the Ger

Twenty-seven white and II native

i've ascendancy for the Allies in the
supreme test of battle strength now
taking place on the bloody fields OF
Flanders is claimed by Secretary Ba-
ker in the weekly review of war OPP
erations issued by the war depart
ment
While it may be premature to assert
that the British far machine has
forced decisive victory over the
Geermans, Mr.. Baker says the victor
les of the past fortnight, threatening
the German submarine bases on the
ercee to the American forces in
tons of allied superiority. With fav-
orable weather he thinks, these vic
tories will be repeated and extended
The review, which is for the week
ended Saturday nisht, makes no refer
encee to the American forces in
France or to the great preparations
for war going forward at home.
"The attention of the world" it
says, SIS focused ON the titanic strug-
sic now going on in Flanders. The
battle raging there is proving an en-
gagement of wholly unprecedentely
scope and potentialities.
German Attacks Futile.
"At the beginning of the week, ow-
ing to bad weather, the Germans We're
able to launch counter attacks against
the positions recently gained by the
British. Notwithstanding the fact
that the Germans made use OF smoke
screens, liquid fire and brought intor
action an imposing array of artillery
in their attack against the British ad-
vanced lines between the Tower Ham
lets and Polygon wood, as well as
along the Menin road, their efforts
proved futile.
1T is significant, on the other hand
that while the British were sustain
ing the shock of German assaults sue
3essfully they were able to bring up
sufficient fresh troops in order to
aunch another offensive action on an .
wen larger scale than the preceding

"The wisdom of the British in main
aiming a great density of front would
appear justified by the results achiev-
I'd during the past week. 1t must be
borne in mind that it is due to the +
iepth of the British line. as much as
o any other one factor, that while

when fortified with the resiliency of
the net they set the pace for all other

they maintain that lead.
