.U=B0ATS BEATEN
SAYSADMIRAL SIMS

(By Fred Wilson, Gen. Mgr. Inter
national News Service, London)
London, May 2e.-"We have the
submarine virtually beaten. Co-ordi-
nation between the Allied fleets has
done tire job. Tie German diver
crews are pr-tty sick and getting
sicker every day." said Admiral Sims
In an interview given to the Inter
national today. This is the first in
terview he has given out.
Admiral Sims was loud in his praise
OF the Allied sailors, and declared that
the harmony between them and the
Yankee jackies could lot be more cor
dial.
See5ruggee and Ostend, submarine
bases, have been blocked at least for
the time being.
Germany's vaunted statement that
she would starve England has proved
false, and the boast that they would
keep American forces from reaching
France was foolish talk.
We are well on the road to win.
Americans are taking turn-about with
Allied navies. All Americans will be
proud of our navy men when their
deed are known after the war;" said
Admiral Sims.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
GETS AVIATION LANDING
FIELD FOR FITZGERALD

Messrs. w. R. Bowen, NJ. w. Gar
butt, w. A. Adams and Secretary E.
Y. Clarke, of the Chamber of Com
merce, motored to Americas Thurs
day to present location to Capt.
Walsh, commander of the Aviation
Field in Sumter county. The loca
ton, which has been secured by a
committee of the Chamber of Com
merce, Messrs. Garbutt, Bowen and
Gelders, previously appointed, is To-
Gated on the R. V. Handley farm,
one mile south of the city on the
Dixie Highway, completely surround
ed by good roads, and ideally located
Cor this purpose.
Relying on the statements of the
committee, Capt. Walsh accepted the
location for the government, with the
provision that the Chamber of Com
merce put the site into frst-class
shape for the purpose, leveled off and
a pole erected of sufficient length to
give the fliers the directions of the
wind currents.
1t is very likely that aviators may
be seen in the city very shortly, as
a trial fight is contemplated and an
inspection is to be made. When the
training of aviators is at its normal
stage, as many as FIVE to eight ma
chimes may land here daily and give
the people of this entire section an
opportunity to daily witness the pro-
gress of the flying program.

Plans for the army control schools
probably are, of course, well known

are on the way and that 1000 instruc-
tors are coming from American schools
and colleges.

others, at small and isolated posts.
there viii be the correspondence
courses.
Subjects to be taught include the
French language, French and English
history, common school subjects, the
causes Of the war ard Americas par
ticipation and special courses for ex-
animation for promotion.
General Pershing has ruled that
school attendance is not compulsory,
but Inquiries made by men of Of
ficerS show the army practically a
unit in promising attendance. And
once a>soldier starts a course he must
finish it.
Where military duties interfere with
or interrupt course the soldier Will
be given transfer or record card
showing how far he has progressed.
He can resume his course when the
work Of a soldier becomes little less
irksome in his own particular case.

WOMEN TO be
LORD" NEXT IN
GREAT BRITAIN
By HAROLD EDWIN BEcHTOL.
European Manager of Newspaper En-
tePprise Association.

London, Nov. 27.-The women OF
Great Britain are going to play big
role in reconstruction.
They have won the right to be heard
by saving the nation-and the nation
recognizes 1t.
The war has brought British wo-
men the vote and the right to sit in
the house of commons-sacred to the
stronger sex" throughout the history
of the British empire.
1t is probable women's right to sit
in the House of Lords will be esrab-
nshed shortly, as well as the admit
lance of women to the professions on
an equal footing with men.
The question of equal pay for
equal work" has been met in in
stances, but largely it remains to be
fought out after the industrial change
over.
Age Limit Now Be Lowered.
Only women over 80 may vote, but
there is already a demand that this
age-limit be reduced.
Women have also invaded the
Strangers Gallery of the Commons.
as the public gallery is called. The
first women to take advantage OF this
newly won privilege was Mrs. Walker
Kerr Of Kensington, who fornedly
lived in New Zealand, where She had
the vote for % years.
English papers predict that women
viii add dignity to the Commons, dig
nified as it is, and prevent "antf'
members from hiding behind pillars
and doors when count is de-
manded
Already a number of women have
announced they will be candidates in
the coming elections-many OF them
on planks dealing with reconstruction
tasks.
