$4,000 TARS. HUN TOLL.
No Punishment Too Severe for
Pirate Crews, Says Head of
Seamcn's Union.

London, Sept. 1S.-"Good luck to
you all and may you all evade the tin
fishes" is the characteristic way IN
which Secretary G. W. Mckee Of the
Hull Seamen's Union concludes his
annual report. ''Since my last report.
he says, "over fifteen thousand sea-
men have paid the price, besides many
hundreds of passengers and service men.
"The enemy is not content with sink
ing ships and crews, but they cruise
about afterwards ranming the wreckage
in the hope of killing the survivors
and leaving no trace Of their fiendish
work. No punishment could be too
bad OF too hard for a nation who know
nothing of sympathy, pity, kindness
or cffcction, but who excel IN ruthless
meas, rapine, murder, robbery and every
kind of brutality which bascness and
savagery can suggest, The creatures
who ask for them not to be punished
are worse than the Huns themselves
and should be packed of to their friends
in their spiritual home.
'The scamcn have won distinction
during the war and we don't want them
linked with the wont works and down
toolers' and shirkers."
In urging special benefits from the
unions for sailors that have TO risk
submarine perlls, the report says:
"Does anyone really believe that
ten pounds from the government will
compensate a man for being torpedocd1
If he does. let him pack up his com
Portable Job ashore amd 90 to sea and
