of the British raid upon the Ger
man submarine bases at Ostend
and Zeebrugge and of the at
tempt to bottle up those harbors
was received with great interest
by the Navy Department. The
move was taken as another def
mite step in the carefully plan.
ned campaign against the U
boats, which, it has been re-
peatedly predicted, would begin
to show material results about
this time.
The recent raid of the British
grand fleet into the Cattegat,
when ten German trawlers were
sunk, was said to have been
another of the steps to prevent
the egress of the submarines.
1t has long been established
that the principal bases of sub
marines which operate in those
waters around the British Isles
are in the captured Belgian ports.
The .wharves, workshops and
basins of those harbors have
been frequently bombed by AL
lied airmen IN several instances
with good results.

AMERICAN MARINES ENGAGED IN
HUGH BATTLE.

Washington, April Is, 10y A.
P.)-Marines fighting in France
have had a total of 274 casualties,
Marine Corps headquarters an
nounced to-day. The casualties
were divided as follows: Officers
wounded, 4; enlisted men killed,
"a, and enlisted. men wounded,
236.
One company lost tWenty-one
men killed and 140 wounded out
of a total strength of $50 men.
This was the first official an
nouncement that the marines are
taking an active part in the fight
ing. The marines were among
the first soldiers to 60 to France,
but it had been understood they
were being used for police duties
back of the fighting line.
When the Marine Brigade, com.
handed by Brig. Gen. Charles A.
Doyen, arrived in France, it was
detailed to guard lines of trans
portation and other duties behind
the battle zone. This situation
brought food of protests from
friends of the corps.
Gen. Pershing finally informed
the War Department that it was
his intention to move up the
brigade to first lines as soon as
he could replace the units along
the lines Of communication. Ac-
cordingIy, about the time the
American troops were brigaded
with the French and British the
marines were given sections of
the lines to hold. No definite
information connecting them
with any previous action has
been received by the War De-
partment so far as official state
ments show.

The farmer, no less than the
