FROM ST. HELENA.

After Napoleon had been exiled
and imprisoned at st. Helena he
spent much of his time reviewing his
career and Analysing the military and
diplomatic plumbers which finally led
to his overthrow, Shortly before his
death he wrote this final Judgment:
II made the mistake of my career,
when 1 had the opportunity, that !
did not remove the Hohenzollerns
from the throne of Prussia. AS long
as this house reigns and until the red
cap OF liberty is erected in Germany
there will be no peace in Europe"
Today, more than ascentury after
Napoleon's great mistake, the Hob
enzollern family has been put out of
Germany and the red cap OF liberty
has been elevated in Berlin. Peace
will now be possible in Europe and in
the rest of the world unless the red
cap of liberty is superseded by the
red flag of Bolshevism Boise States

Hundreds of the Salt Lake Trib,
une's readers will heave big sigh of
relief when the 145th field artillery
First Utah) is mustered ont of ser
vice. For the past six months there
has scarcely been day that the
Tribune has not contained from
half column to two columns about
the doings of the 145th. All the
time the artillery was in training at
Camp Kearney, the Tribune daily
published a column or more of
.slush" about the brave boys. :"
Since the artillery landed in France
last July the Tribune has continued
its praise of the artillery. until the
people have become tired and sick
OF reading, about it. The members
of the artillery, In common with ev-
cry other man who offered his servi-
ces to the country, are deserving of
praise, but there Is such thing as
OVERRIDING the praise stunt, which Is
the case with the Tribune. That the
artillery did not have the pleasure of
getting q crack at the Huns, Is no
fault OF the members. Had they
been given the opportunity they
would no doubt have made as good a
record for themselves as have the
boys from every other section of the
United States, who have been In the
thlckest Of the fight. Inasmuch as
the 145th did not have the privilege
Of showing fits metal, the 1ribune's
continued ,gush about the organiza-
ton is entirely out OF place. For
the love OF Mike" give the boys a
rest.

ny Associated Press,


LONDON, Dec. 6.-Allied methods
in gaining information about the move
ment Of submarines during the war
never will be divulged fully. but the
accuracy of the daily reports has
proved one of the surprising features
Of the war here Very few submarines
left their bases unknown to the allied
fleet commanders. In addition, the
numbers of the vessels. the duration
of their cruises and the locality In
which they were ordered to operate.
were known in nearly every case.
Such information usually was known
within day OF the time the submarine
left II was transmitted to allied wire
less stations which had means OF
checking 1t up to certain extent.
Wireless operators at sea and at home
heard the submarines reporting in code
to Germany every night and their po-
sitions were learned by system OF
reckoning the wave length. This was
done so accurately that the submarine
could be definitely located as close as
mile which is very close in the al
most limitless expanses Of the sea.
This assisted the allied anti-submar-
inc patrols. They could keep the Ger
mans on the move by remaining in
waters they knew the U-boats were
ordered to operate and did not waste
time hunting where 1t was unlikely
the prey was working.

SENSATIONAL RESCUE

LONDON, Dec. 6.-An extraordinary
story of the salvage of British sub
marine which went down in Gaerloch
lock near the Clyde has now been pub.
lshed. The submarine had 70 per-
sons on board. including naval con.
tractors and men from the yard where
she had been built. The order was
given to submerge and she had de-
seconded just beneath the surface when
water began to pour into her aft and
she descended stern down to depth
of fifteen fathoms.
An inspection showed that the ven.
tilating shaft had been left open and
81 persons in the rear of the vessel
were drowned Immediately. The fore
part was shut Off and the forty-two
persons there were saved. How their
rescue was accomplished was sensa-
tional A few hours had passed be-
fore divers were sent down on what
they considered a forlorn hope so far
as bringing anyone up alive was con-
cerned. Getting to the bottom they
discovered that the stern of the YES
sci was embedded in many, many feet
of sand. Knocking at the hull they
were amazed to hear responsive
tapping.
Then Capt. Goodhart attempted a
task which reads Ikea tale from Jules
Verne The high pressure bottles were
brought into use and the captain UNI
dertook with their aid to be projected
through the coming tower and shot in
to the water with the hope Of reaching
surface and giving information regard
ing those below. He was shot for
ward but his head struck beam and
he was instantly killed. Another Of
ficer volunteered and was fortunate
enough to reach the surface and give
information about the condition OF the
others below Rescuers inserted
through a water flap a flexible hose
through which air, food and chocolates
were passed The entombed men ask
ed by means of Morse signalling. for
playing cards "to beguile the tedium
of waiting" as one of them said.
Strong wires were put around the
vessel and the air bottles utilized to
blow out the oil fuel slowed forward
which enabled the vessel to drive up
wards at high speed until her bow was
we'll above the water in perpendicu-
lar position.
Immediately big hole was made in
her by acetylene burners and the for
ty-two men brought out and conveyed
TO an infirmary. They had been below
"a hours when Capt. Goodhart made
his Inflated attempt and altogether the
party was 81 hours before being saved.
Capt. Goodhart was posthumously
awarded the Victoria cross.
