 Tn all other countries which are at war, working hours have been length ened and millions of women are doing mems work that men may be relieved for the defense of their country on the firing line.
 Many of the miners, who are reluctant to strike for patriotic and other reasons, are being told that if they will strike now the strike will last only three or four days. at the end of which time they will secure all of their demands As the leaders we'll know that the coal opera tors will not consider closed shop, the intimation is made that government au- thorities will order the recognition of the union and the starting of work. There have been very many strikes in this coun- try since we entered the war that have been medated or in some manner set tied by the advice and counsel of gov ernment officials, and in not one of those settlements has the government decided for the closed shop. A moments re1ec- tion will show that the government of the United States cannot afford to say that the authority of any union shall have the right to deny to other men the privilege of remaining free from union affiliation

REPORT OF ADMIRAL
 ON U-BOAT ATTACK
 NOW MADE PUBLIC
(continued from Page one)

line with it there appeared two distinct and separate wakes with a streak of blue water between. In my opinion these were the wakes Of two torpedoes.
 1.-The submarine which was sighted by the flagship was seen by the B. and passed under that ship. The B. went to quarters. When the alarm was sounded in the B., Lieutenant w. was reused out of his sleep and went to his station and found unmistakable evidence of the pres ence of a submarine. He had been there only few seconds when the radio op- orator reported, submarine very close to us As the submarine passed the B. and tlre flagship's bow and disappeared close aboard on our port bow, between the columns, it was followed by the B., which ran down between the columns, and when the latter resumed Ter sta tion she reported that there were strong indications of the presence of two sub marines astern which were growing fainter. The B. was then sent to guard the rear of the convoy.
 SAME SUBMARINE
 ''S-When I was in Paris I was shown by the United States naval attache a confidential official bulletin of informa- tion issued by the general staff, dated July 6, which contained the following:
 q 'Punta Delgada, Azores-Was bom- barded at a. m. July f. This is un- doubtedly the submarine which attacked the E. on June 25, 400 miles north of the Azores and sank the F. and G. on June 29 100 miles from Terceira (Azores). This submarine was ordered to watch in the vicinity of the Azores, at such dis tance as it was supposed the enemy American convoy would pass from the Azores.
 EVIDENTLY INFORMED
 '9-It appears from the French report just quoted above. and from the location of the attack that enemy submarines had been notified of our approach and were probably scouting across our route. It is possible that they may have trailed us all day on June p, as our speed was well within tlpeir limits of surface speed, and they could have easily trailed our smoke under the weather conditions without being seen, their failure to score hits was probably due to the attack be- ing precipitated by the fortuitous cir sumstances of the fagshps Eelm jam ming and the sounding of her whistle, leading the enemy to suppose he had been discovered

there will be teams from Burlington,
Des Moines, Muscatine. Keokuk. Oska-

of which is capable Of giving a stin
battle.

and made a very good showing against
their opponents who hold the title OF
Illinois this year The tourney at Des

is, the teams will play a round robin

The Sports Corner
CONNIE MACK SAYS
SOX WILL WIN RACE

Dublin. Ga. March 29.-Connie
Mack Of the Athletics, whose team
has just finished a ~three-game series
with the Braves. thinks the Chicago
White Sox will win the pennant this
year. He explains it this way:
II have just been looking over the
lineup and the makeup Of the White
Sox. They have very good lei in each
position. Maybe one good reason why
they did not make good last year was
because the infeld was unbalanced.
Now, this Risberg. who will play on
the left side Of the diamond. IS a
good man and can hit. At least that
is what I have been told by men who
ought to know.
THE acquisition OF Chick Gandil at
first base means a gain for Manager
Rowland. He is a cool. e%asy-going
player who will keep the other infeld.
ers from being too nervous. The value
Of such a player in that Chicago in
field cannot be overestimated.
Rowland has several men for the
outfield who are good. Jackson, Felsch,
Collins and Fourier are The men left
from last year. Who could ask for a
better layout?
"The White Sox have the pitchers,
There are eight Of them who are sure.
ly big league caliber. I have an idea
that Faber will have a good year. He
had his ups and downs. The men have
now played together for a time. have
had a chance to find out what was
good and what was bad in the general
machinery and will do we'll.
"The talk that the White Sox are
not game Is n~onsensical. I consider it
as game a team as there is in the
league"
