U-BOATS TO REMAIN
SOME TIME, VIEW
OF j. S. OFFICIALS

Germany will keep up her U-boAt
raids for some time.
Officials are convinced today Of
this after studying a mass OF German
press comment, much Of It false. more
OF it misleading. The German peo-
pie are told that the U-boat drive
against the United States is . great
success and that it will choke OF
American troop and supply move
ments to the western front
The fact that no attempt has been
made against a troOpship, however,
indicates that the naval masters of
Germany Issued instructions at FIRST
20 attempt to shake American morale
BY getting a large number Of boats,
even though only small vessels. That
later efforts will be made to attack
transports is possible, though their
careful convoy guard makes this dan
gerous for the U-boat.
One TeutOn paper says deeds on
the American coast will make ''the
marrow OF Wilson's bones turn cold"
AoBasle,. Switzerland, paper says the
raids will turn out like all OF Ger
many's other attempts at frightful-
ness-mereIy in failure. Its greatest
effect will be to enrage the American
people, said the paper.

Bulletin Is Guide to Those
Who Wish to Enter Es-
sential Industries
General Plan Asked
Need for Feminine Workers Will
Increase as More Men
Are Drafted

bulletin of training courses Of
fered in New York to prepare women
Tor all forms of war work is brought
out to-day by the Clearing House for
Wartime Training for Women. The
bulletin was designed as guide to
unframed women who want to enter
essential war industries, and directs
them where to get whatever training
they want, giving all the necessary
information about fees, hours and
prerequisites.
Two questions are asked of every
working woman by the clearing house;
Are you in an essential industry? and,
Are you trained to your work? Every
educational institution is likewise
queried: Do your courses give women
the training they need at this par
ticular time? and, Are all necessary
courses to meet the country's need for
workers provided somewhere in your
curriculum?
national programme to follow the
lead of New York's example in getting
out this local bulletin is called for by
Miss Emma P. Hirth, executive secre-
tary of the clearing house. She
pointed out yesterday that some manu-
facturers are giving intensive training
with pay in their shops before women
take their jobs.
"This is splendid for the immediate
present." said Miss Hirth, "but Secre-
tary Lane draws attention to the fact
that our neeed for skilled women in
industry is bound to increase, and that
trade schools for boys which teach the
rudlments of mechanics also should
be open to girls between the ages of
fourteen and sixteen and that me-
chanlcal courses should be introduced
into the trade schools for girls of this
same age.
More than this, we think that both
schools and factories should be look
ing ahead to determine what types of
skilled women workers will be needed
as more men are drafted, and that
plans to train such workers, whether
IN the factory, or through combina-
tlon of trade or technical school and
INTO effect at the earliest possible
moment
There is at present very little
training available outside the factory
Tor the women who enter industry, and
as. yet ho programme has been de-
veloped for meeting the increased de-
mand for trained women in industry.
Yet the call for their service is i'm
mediate and pressing and will become
increasingly urgent when the second
draft goes into effect.
1--WE need not only local but ma
tonal programme for the wartime
training of women if they are to bt
prepared adequately to meet the coun-
try's need for their services. We cam
not afford breakdown during the
next few months in our second line of
defence from lack Of little fore
sight"
All the available opportunities Of
fered in New York City for the train
ing of women in industrial as we'll as
in all other lines of wartime work
are listed in the new bulletin. which
also contains a foreword stating the
current demands Tor trained women.
The majority of the training courses
start within the next ten days.
The bulletin is obtainable at the
office of the clearing house, 19 West
Forty-fourth Street, FOR 25 cents; by
mail, 80 cents.

New Calls to War Work
One "Anti" Bogie Scotched
Educational Test Kills Ignorant
Argument, Saws Mrs. Gait

Woman suffrage in practice in New
York State has already answered one
Of the, anti-suffragists' old theoretical
objections to the franchise, according
to Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, president
Of the National American Woman Suf-

yesterday the practical reply New York
State has given to that old bogie con-

tranchised her women" said Mrs. Gait.
I'm January. 1918, her Legislature met
and passed a compulsory educational
law, with the penalties which most of
such laws lack. The same Legislature
passed an amendment to the constitu-
ton which provides, if it is passed
again this year and approved by the
people. that no person shall be able to
vote who is unable to read and write
English.

so promptly in this matter will help to

Money Lent to Landladies
to Fit Up Proper Homes
for Employees
Problem Is Difficult
Boarders Help Make Rules and
May Press Dresses in
Their Rooms
special Dispatch to The Tribune>


WASHINGTON. Sept. 21.~-The gov
eminent. through the housing and
health division of the War Depart
ment, is selecting house mothers or
cbaperons to take charge of boarding
houses that it is approving at the rate
Of one a day. The need is for houses
and more houses which accommodate
from twenty to fifty girls or men.
In fitting house for the use of its
employees the government may lend the
money to the landlady after it has in
yestirated her to see that she is the
nroper person to take care of it. The
housing and health division then in
spects the new boarding house, decides
upon the rent rate and the sex of the
boarders who are to occupy it. Later,
when the landlady has taken possess
sion, it helps fill the house.
In establishing the housing and
health division of the War Department
the government planned to socialize
the situation and establish basis for
beneficial outcome along two lines.
that Of strength and that of efficiency
in work
Problems Difficult
"The problem of satisfying war
workers and government employees is
not so simple as supplying barracks
and laying down rules for soldiers -
said Captain Julius Peyser, Of the
housing and health division of the
War Department. at cannot be done
as one would establish precedent in a
dormitory, for the young men and
women who are coming to Washington
are mature and are independent eco
nomically. They are coming here to
do their part by taking jobs that the
government needs to have filled. 1t is
not the right of any landlady to lay
down hard and fast rules for them.
"At the same time provision has to
contented or they will not stay in
whatever work they are doing. Al
present the turnover is much larger
than it should be. The housing and
health division is trying to handle a
sociological problem. And it is work
ing conformity with the housing divi-
slons Of the other departments to keep
the workers contented and cut down
the turnover
Girls Help Make Rules
py SelIllHS the question OF board
and rooms, sanitation and recreation
Te hope to make our workers the best
and most efficient. The girls iof each
boarding house have a share in max
lng their own rules and creating its
discipline For each boarding house
We usually establish some sort of self
government with the help of the well
fare worker Of the department in
which those girls work.
The housing division undertakes 10
care for all adjustments between the
girls and their landladies. And it has
also found that making a provision for
places Tor the girls to do small pieces
OF laundry and some of their own
pressing greatly relieves pressure and
discussion.
"0ne of the chief objections that
andladies had to girl boarders was
that they always wanted some place tc
press their clothes. When one con
slders how much they have to Spend
on their expenses and that by doing
some OF their own pressing they can
save little, the girls demand for
places where they can do part of theil
laundry Is not at all unreasonable"
