She was soon out of sight of other
ships.
Was Given Up for Lost.
A report that the chaser was miss
ing was the only word of her until
today. when Secretary Daniels re-
ceived a cable message telling of her
safe arrival in a foreign port. The
boat virtually had been given up for
lost, with her entire crew of about
twenty men.
Secretary Daniels and the officers
at the Navy Department were
highly gratified at this practical
OF the American-built submarine
chasers. Full credit was given to
the French crew, but the fact that
a 110-foot craft, helpless and adrift,
could successfully ride out terri
fic mid-Atlantic gale leaves moth
ing to be said in behalf Of the
American builders.
The storm which separated the
chaser from her escort was one of
the worst on record, it was Off

ment.

SECRETARY Daniels said that he
was delighted to receive the mes

Left alone and helpless in mid
ocean when her engines became dis
abled in terrific gale, an -Ameri-
can-built submarine chaser has
reached the other side of the Allan
tic after being at the mercy OF the
seas for thirty-nine days. Secre-
tary Daniels made this announce
ment late yesterday.
The chaser had been turned over
to the French government and was
manned by a French crew.
The safe navigation of the tiny
craft into port was officially recog-
mixed as one of the most remarkable
naval achievements OF the war.
Sail Made from Bed Covers.
The feat was accomplished by
rigging up a sail made from bed
covering. Running before the wind
q speed of two or three knots an
hour was made under this means Of
propulsion
A compass was the only navigat-
ing instrument on board the vessel.
The commander Of the crew was
forced to estimate his positions.
A shortage Of rations aggravated
the hardships before port was reach

SOLONS GREET
new CHAIRMAN
WITH BANQUET
Republicans Honor Will H.
Hays, Recently Chosen
Leader Of Party.

Virtually every Republican mem
Der of the House and Senate gave
welcome last night to Will H. Hays,
of Indiana, new national chairman
Of the Republican party. in one of
the banquet rooms Of the Willard
Hotel.
Chairman Hays won considerably
more than perfunctory or partisan
triotic team work of all parties. He
said, in part:
"The winning of the war and prep
arations for the reconstruction
that is to follow is our only real
business, and everything else is
chores. On the question of the war
there is but -one side. On that side,
supporting the country's cause,
shall stand every political party
and every member of every political
party entitled to any consideration
whatever.
IT do not mean that searching.
sympathetic suggestion and con-
structive criticisms are not de-
sirabIe. They are. 1 think they
are necessary. can't begin to un-
derstand the mental processes of
those men in authority who believe
otherwise"
Chairman Hays made common ar
raignment of profiteering by labor
and by capital and urged that the
l. W. WIS be treated as traitors.
The political aspect of his ad-
dress was subordinated to his talk
on the war, and was confined main
ly to an appeal for cooperation
from every Individual member of
the Republican party. He pledged
himself incidentally to work only
to elect candidates, not to select
them.
Mr., Hays was introduced by SEN
ator Gallinger, who presided, and
was preceded by Senator Harding,
r Representatives Winslow, of Mas
sachusetts, and Wood, of Indiana.
