LONDON. Aug. 2.-Wireless oper- ators on American and other ships crossing the Atlantic at night ire quently pick up" orders being sent by the German admiralty to subma- rines at sea. The messages are in code, of course, and the submarines never acknowledge receipt of the or ders, because if they did some war ship Of the enemy might get a clue as to the location of one or more of the underea boats.
 These messages are from Nauen, a small town near Spandau. where Germany has it's great wireless sta tion. Electrical waves produced there will reach some 6,O00 miles.

TEUTONs USE UNIFORMS
 ID SPINDLE THE PUBLIC

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 2.-An extraor- dinary instance of Teutonic servilty where uniforms are concerned has oc- cured at Essen. A party of three armed individuals, two in soldiers and one in policeman's uniform made a round of all the schools of the town. representing themselves to be authorized to collect the childrens satchel. They paid a triie in each case for the leather straps attached to them and carried away their booty. After few days the whole affair was discovered to be a swindle.
 How 1t is possible that this could have been carried on for days with out anyone having the courage to chal- lenge their authority remains one of the mysteries of this war" says the Rhenish Westphalian Gazette.

HUNS 0BSESSED WITH IDEA OF
 WORLD POWER

LONDON, July (by maiD De spite their four years of fighting. some of the German prisoners of war still are obsessed by the German idea of conquering the world. That unadul- terated Prussianism still exists in the German ranks is the conclusion of one British officer who has interviewed a number of the German prisoners. One of them he describes as '.an intelli- gent university man" The British of- ficer quotes their conversation as fol. lows:
 q do not wish to insult you" said the German. but you English are well-intended fools. We who govern in Germany are not like you. We gov ern the fools; the fools govern you.
 Your principles are sweeping re- piled the Briton. "To come' down toI practice, what have you to say about the guilt of beginning the war?
 Guilt" demanded the German; "it was a glory. l claim it for Ger many"
 That is hardly your official view.
 The official view is for fools
 But you believe in the Prussian purpose behind all this?" asked the British officer.
 "I do, as in nothing else" replied the German. The Prussian purpose is God. There is no other. Prussia will rend the veil of the temple, but she will destroy to create. Against Prussian might the world as 1t exists today will fall in ruins. but Prussia will build better and more virle world in it's place. Strength only win survive The life of men is naturally fight. The strongest in force and cunning will live"
 Tt will be going back to the Flood" said the Briton.
 Prussia is the Flood"
 And when the old world is drowned, virtue and all such weak nesses will go with it?"
 The old virtue was womanish," is strength
 "In that blessed future will war reign triumphant? ?"
 Life Is war-all of life that is healthy. Peace is only striving for mastery with other weapons. That is the law of nature"
 "so everyone will fight till everyone is deade"
 The weakest will go under. They are the disease. The stronger will live; and after that the stronger and stronger, till there is perfect health. "I
 But it may be that Prussia will keep few slayes?"
 Certainly" said the German. Those who care not to fight that they may rule are in their nature slaves"
 "I had had enough of it." the of icer concluded. Tt was nauseating But the man was genuine in his be- lefs, and so obsessed by his elemen- tary notion of virilty that it was a waste of time to argue with him. His conceptions were quite definite and not a doubt assailed him. The hid eous world of his vision seemed tOI him q natural and glorious world. ",

Washington, Jan. 17.-Jones is no
name to make you stick out amid the
duck. There are flocks of Joneses
everywhere. But when your parents
have added to Jones two names like
Andt.eus Aristieus, you are apt to
make people sit up and take notice.
However, Senator Jones of New
Mexico, is going to make people take
notice for something more important
than two mere front" names. He is
conner" in the senat. He is pro-
gressive. He is the man who puts
tacks in the road everytime Jim
Reed of Missouri, gets to cavorting
around too strongly in his Indian
dance of hostility toward Herbert
Hoover and the food administration.
Jones refuses to let any of the
members of the most exclusive club
in the world pull any of that "Baby
Senator" stuff on him. He is a lit
tie heavy getting into action. but
when he is through he has usually
accomplished the job just as com
pletely as a ponderous steam roller
Throughout the hearings upon thu
food administration he has stood out
as the only vocal friend of Hoover
His special delight has been in crush
ing the cantankerous Jim Reed, and
in giving Hoover a chance to tel.
what the food administration has
done.
