London. April Ga joint military
and naval attack on Calais by German
forces is only a question OF a few days,
in the opinion OF experts here, who see
in the Smelling Of Dunkirk and Calais
a preliminary move toward a great
Teuton sea attack.
In connection with the local raids on
the English coast, the belief is openly
expressed here that Hindenburg is
using this for the double purpose OF
terrOrizing the British residents in the
region of Calais and of silencing his
critics at home. Doubtless he realizes,
turn attention from the big internal
strike scheduled for May !. That Hin
denburg is confident a combined at
ack on the English coast will avert
this strike is not doubted here.
More Grief for Carson.
With most of the country's press
hostile to his administration of the ad-
miralty, Sir Edward Carson is likely
to suffer further broadsides of criticism
following this mornings destroyer
raid on Ramsgate, in which there were
five casualties and considerable prop
erty was destroyed.
Within a week the Germans have
shelled Calais and Dunkirk, fought an
unsuccessful engagement off Dove n
sAAO AAbOAS Ia eHS
of the channel THAI at any period OF
the war. The next few days will de-
eide whether these frequent excursions
are meant merely as a local embarrass-
ment or whether they are ~forerunner
of a military and naval raid on Calais.
One set of observers believe that
Hindenburg has decided to fight de-
fensively on the west front and depend
wholly on the submarines for the Of
fensive, while another group insist that
his reserves in men and guns are Still
sufficient to permit of attempted
furious bombardment has ragged for
several weeks.
Riga Of Little Weight.
Costly counte attacks on Arras and
Rheims. according to n view, have
greatly di~sarranged his plans. but
many others believe that the Internal
situation i'm Germany will compel MIN
denburg's appeal. Bethmann-Hollweg
threat and Croeners' sharp attack tell
the story of unrest and dissatisfaction
within the German empire.
Though the Riga front offers greater
inducement to success than amy other
portion of the field. there would hardly
he much here to encourage the Ger
man peoples hope of peace. and that
is what they want above anything else
in the world.
Not only the social democratic press.
but many others also, warn the gov
eminent that it is playing with fire.
while Admiral Capable has been forced
to promise Germany that England Will
soon be compelled by the submarines
to accept peace.
If Hindenburg has decided to re-
main on the defensive and depend on
the submarine for his chief offensive
weapon. his decision is contrary to all
Germany's expectations of the wan
lord and hardly calculated to strength
en- the confidence which Major Moraht,
Count Won Reventlow and the rest OF
the German experts have worked SO
industriously recently to make people
believe he deserves.

Washington. ID. G.. April 30-One
great thing the British and French com
missions now in this country are al
ready beginning to accomplish. Before
they go home they will have more fully
achieved it. though by no means com
pletely. This is that they have, to some
extent begun to remove the scales from
the eyes of Americans AS to the scope
and gravity and staggering magnitude
Of the task AHEAD of this country. Net
ther Washington nor the nation. as q
matter OF fact, has entirely
to what it has to do.
Complacency still obtains IN many
quarters here and elsewhere, but it il
beginning to be Jared. Officials here
are beginning to sense the fact that
this war has settled down to a great
test Of endurance among the fighting
nations. 1t has become, above all else.
a problem of foo power, munitions.
shipping capacity. money power and
man power. Wonderful as are the
achievements of the entente there is no
use blinking the act that Gefmanys
performances. too, are astounding.
Entente Couldn't Do IL?
1t is Il real and .ycrious question
whether the entente allies by them
selves can win this wal and it de-
wolves on this country To pour forth
out of it's exhaustless resources all that
is necessary to turn the scale. fully,
completely and finally, against the Teu-
tonic powers.
On how long the war is going to last
1T is almost idle to talk. The fact that
is sure and which the visiting commits
sioners are driving home. is that this
country can clinch victory for democ-
racy and can do it by providing food.
shipping all of war material
and men. as well as money. God is
needed above all things else. but other
are needed also.
1t - impossible to ~exaggerate the
magnitude of the organization problem
ahead of this government. 1t is not
insuperable, but it calls for big work
along many lines. 1t calls for the fore
ing and driving of the productive ca
pacity of this country to the highest
degree and for military and nav or
CARNATIONS of the highest rider. Far
from checked. the submarine menace is
as great as ever, if not greater. 1t il
therefore not simply u matter of rails
ing foodstuffs in this country, produc-
ing war material and organizing armies,
but of getting together the vast amount
of shipping needed to supplement the
shipping of the entente and to get it to-
gether as quickly as possible.
On General Goethals and the shipping
board rests a great responsibility. but
there is reason to believe that by rea-
son of the caDacity of Cocktails. AS
show in construction of the canal, this
responsibility will be met.

WAGES AGGRESSIVE SEA PLAN

Paris. April 3O-Rear Admiral De-
gouy, retired, advocated a change of
methods in dealing with the submarine
menace. in view Of the torpedoing
within the week of 40 vessels of more
than 1900 tons. according to figures
given out in London.
1T is indispensable &c prevent the
greatest possible number of submarines
from beginning operations" the admiral
said. ITO pursue and destroy when pos
sible submarines in operation is very
well. and it is evidently advisable to
continue in this direction. but that is
insufficient. The only and decisive
means of preventing the German from
disturbing the allies is to fight with
| him in his home waters.
1.-The British admiralty did we'll last
February when it ~endeavored to bar
out from the North sea a maritime en-
trenched camp whose supporting posi-
tons were Bodkum. Helgoland and
Sylit Ca line drawn through these po-
sitions bars Germany's principal means
Of ingress to the North sea, as we'll as
the entrance to the Wezer and Elbe
rivers.) This effort was not carried
out with sufficient vigor and results
were not what vas expected. In brief.
the anticipated submarine war is still
in a passive stage"
