The U-boat raid along the Atlantic
coast was meant to help German NOR
ale and hurt American morale.
The German admiralty doubtless
knew that it's submarines would not
be able to sink enough shipping by
such a stroke to make any material
difference to the Allies. The losses
hardly count in the great volume of
shipping we are using for war pur-
poses, and will soon be made up by
new production. 1t is too far from
the German bases for anything more
than sporadic occasional attacks; and
even those we can meet better here
after These facts were probably real
lied beforehand
But what the German government
did not realize, and seems incapable
Of ever realizing. is that such moves
always fail of their effect in enemy
countries. because Germany's enemies
are not fools and towards.
The German people. no doubt. arc
vastly Cheered by the news thar their
beloved U-boats have carried the war
into American waters. They will be
persuaded, for little while, that the
movement of troops. food and war
supplies TO England and France has
been stopped. They will hope once
more to end the war before American
help arrives, and dictate a Prussian
peace in Paris or London.
But we know how it is here. The
first shot from a U-boat on this side
OF the water galvanized our whole ma
ton into stiffened resistance and
greater determination than ever to see
the war through at all costs. For
every ship sunk there will be a dozen
produced by the added momentum
given us. For every American life de-
stroyed there will be a thousand more
Americans in France against the great
day of reckoning
We might almost thank GERMANY
for that raid

THREAT OF AN Ia FAMLNE.

The war covers a multitude of prof
iteering schemes Every time some
enterprising gentlemen want to
squeeze the public a little harder the
cry is raised of an impending fam

costs" conserving" this or that, and
soon thereafter up 20 the prices and
down goes the quality. quantity or
service.
The American people stand ready TO
make any sacrifice for the good Of
their country and to aid war work. 6ut
they are not going to bear submissive
ly the boosting Of prices for private
profit
There is no excuse whatever for an
ice famine this summer, with its cor
ollary OF increased mortality. espec-
tally among children, discomfort and
suffering among adults, and waste Of
food for lack of refrigeration. The ma
terials for making ice are abundant
enough and labor is by no means un-
attainable. The price of ice has 50
ready been raised, deliveries arc less
frequent, and, what is worse. the Civ
ing Of short weight seems to have be-
come a habit
The talk Of a famine" leads to the
strong suspicion that it is merely pre-
liminary to another raise in price
This may or may not be justifable,
but we hope that Mr.. Hoover will en-
phatically put his foot down on any
famine"
We would suggest also that house
keepers weigh the ice bought by them
and insist on full weight. even at the
risk of having the iceman forget" to
deliver the next days supply. If

fused to be cheated. the price might

THERE OUGHT TO BE
A CENSOR'S CENSOR

There ought surely to be censor's
censor appointed in each of the Eng
disappearing nations, Judging from
the, extraordinary irrelevancies that
come to light as a result of want of
coordination, says the Christian
Science Monitor The latest censorial
absurdity comes from Canada, where
are suppressed certain books from
England which are allowed to circu-
late freely in the Mother Country.
The Toronto Globe, for instance,
calls attention to the specific case of
The Parasite" of Mr.. Nee. The book
deals with the drink evil in Great
Britain. The Canadian censor will
not pass the work, presumably be-
cause of some mistaken feeling of 10y
atty. But Canada has not troubled
much about that sentiment when pro-
testing against the drink dangers to
which Canadian troops are exposed
upon landing at English ports.

Subsidized Norwegian Factories.

Since the European war began it
has been disclosed that the Norwegian
nitrate plants, even with SO power,
had never been commercially self
supporting. but had from the begin
ming been subsidized by Germany,
which was thus enabled to accumu-
late huge store of nitric acid for
munitions while ostensibly giving all
of its attention to the development of
fertilizer resources by other processes.
This story is told in full by Mr.. F. P.
Stockbridge in the Worlds Work
for June
Germany also developed the coallar
color industry. based on the discover
les of Sir William Perkin, as well as
the coal-tar drug industry, and, by
subsidized manufacture and price-cut-
ting. discouraged the utilization of
coal hy-products in other countries.

Two Others are Wounded at

Associated Press Service:
NEWPORT NEWS, March .
one man Of a Negro stevedore reg
iment was killed and two others
wounded. one probably fatally to-
night when guards of the 4Sth in
fantry (regulars) fired on several
hundred of the stevedores who were
attempting to wreck a small store
near their camp some miles north
of this city.
The names of the dead men and
wounded are not made public.
Col Daniel Nanvoorhees, chief Of
staff here. in a statement tonight
said the stevedores had been re-
turned to their camp and that no
further trouble was anticipated.
The attack on the store. the colonel
said. resulted from an argument
late today between Private Turner
Of the stevedores' regiment and a
white clerk at the soda fountain in
the store.
