Evidence of The Failure of
The Submarine Campaign
lFrom the New York SUM

year ago no naval expert believed
that the German submarines would 60
further west than the 2Oth degree Of
longitude in their quest OF victims. A
year ago. however. it was not certain
at least in the German mnd-that the
u-boat campaign was a failure, so far
as the general outcome OF the war was
( concerned Now il is known that the
campaign is hopeless. The destroyers.
naval dirigibles, hydroalrplanes, con-
voys and armed merchantmen Of Ger
manys enemies have reduced the sink
ings beyond the mark Of real danger.
and have evidently broken the morale
OF the men who worked the untersee-
booten. The sea snakes do not come TO
the top Of the water in the British zone
with their old confidence. A great num-
Der OF submarines have been sunk a re-
markably large number captured.
Probably it is in this defeat Of the
Tirpitz programme that we may read
the reason for the appearance Of sub
marines on the American coast II the
German campaign in European waters
was winning. II Is natural TO suppose
that every available submarine would
be devoaed to the task Of completing
a victory. Certainly a few schooneIs
off the coast Of the United states are
not so important as the fleets Of men,
arms and food that the Germans have
been trying TO sink in the waters where
their submarines are most easily oper-
ated. These sinkings near New York
are really admissions Of the defeat Of
the great plan Of the Germans: the
campaign with which they promised
their people TO starve England into sub
mission and to win the war
Germany's hope Of a material victory
at sea have disappeared, she evidently
has turned toward psychological cam
paign; but the psychology is purely
German She may believe that Ameri- |
can shipping will be frightened, or that
the peril Of the seas will be brought
more closely home to the stupid Yam
KEGS. II is the working Of the same !
German mind that conceived the idea |
that Zeppelin raids woud keep Eng /
lishmen covering at home The air |
raids, unimportant I'm everything except !
their brutality, had the same effect in
England that the APPEARANCE Of the sub /
marines here will have; a liveler de- |
termination TO beat the prussian
The coming Of the submarines |
through 5000 miles Of sea is not re-
markable, and Of course not new. The

German U-boats came here in the time
when we dallied with German diplo-
macy. II was the 9th Of July, 1916. that
the German submarine Deutschland ar
rived in Chesapeake bay with s750,000
worth Of dyes and chemicals; and. in
spite Of the protest OF the Allies that
she was potentially a warship. this gov
ernment permitted her TO return TO
Germany, taking with her a cargo or
rubber, metals and gold, articles that
Germany most needed. Her second visit
TO America was on November 4 OF the
same year. II was between these visits
that the U-53-this no unarmed ship
but a submarine with all the vicious
equipment Of war-csme to the United
States. She arrived at Newport on Oc-
tober 2. 1916. delivered papers TO Am
passador Won Bernstorff, paid a cele-
monial call on Admiral Knight and then
slipped out to sea and sank Off Nan
tucket three British ships, one Dutch
and one Norwegian. Still Washington
held that Germany had not violated her
pledges. II is a bitter incident to re-
call now Germany was learning the
way to our shores and we bowed and
smiled
The most important question now
to be answered relative TO this nearby
campaign at sea is whether Germany
has base for submarines in this
II she has. the danger is
more than passing and the base must
be found and destroyed. II she has no
base, then her submarines cannot long
remain in these parts, but must re-
turn home for supplies. Without a
base in western waters Germany can
do little more than demonstrate, with
a few slnkings. her hatred for America.

We have had a great many inquiries
concerning the vast disproportion be-

for wheat and the prices said millers
charge for bran. We are going 20
pass the buck" TO the Federal Food
Administrator.
In December last the Federal Grain
Corporation placed a maximum price
upon the cost of wheat mill feed. On
January 2s certain amendments and
additions were made to these regula-
tons which permit the miller TO sell
the bran from wheat at a figure equal
TO 80 per cent Of the cost OF the
wheat to the miller Reckoning 33 i-S
bushels OF wheat to a ton, the miller
in this section has been paying $40 or
less for a ton OF wheat Now 80 per
cent. Of $40 is s26.60, which is the price
at which the miller is permitted 10
sell bran under the regulations Of
January 2sth, referred TO above But
has any farmer been able to buy a ton
OF bran at s266O in this neck Of the
woods? The millers, according to our
reports, have been charging about $50
per ton, or double the amount pre-
scribed in the regulations Naturally
there has been much complaint and
much inquiry as to the why and
wherefore" Of this state Of affairs
We confess we are unable TO salts
factorily answey these questions But

FARMERS, OPPORTUNITY.

From the Laurel Register
The farmers Of Delaware have never
had quite so good an opportunity to
make money as right now. To be sure
the problem Of labor is serious, it has
been for some years for that matter,
but the prices for Iarm produce Of every
kind easily overbalance the labor cost.
The energetic farmer Of today can de-
velop his land and raise most anything
he wants to raise and with every pros
pect Of realizing profitable prices on his
product. Many farmers have failed TO
appreciate the opportunities offered for
the development Of their land and for
that reason have not protlted as they
should. An acre Of ground today means
more than ever before and yet there
are hundreds Of acres literally going to
waste on all sides simply because the
owner lacks the energy or the initiative
TO make it produce. This waste land is
gradually becoming less and less as the
farmers come to realize the possibilities
OF the land but there Is still entirely too
much that is non-productive When
one realizes how intensive farming has
produced for the man who has made
a study Of It, not exactly from a sci
ontinc standpoint, one is forced to rec
ognize what tremendous opportunities
are possible these days. Farmers, cul-
tivate the waste places, plant and pro-
duce and you viii not only be doing a
large part in feeding your neighbors in
these days OF world strife but you will
be laying aside profits for yourself in
matrial way, which may come in very
good after things settle down In Eu-
rope once more.

Captain Zimmerman, Benton Bangs,
Silas Sites, and Clarence Boone are

TRAINING
FOR ALL STUDENTS
Highest Degree of Fitness Aim of
State College-Classes Well
Attended

To raise every male student of the
State College to the highest possible
degree of physical and mental eff
cheney through consistent physical
training is the aim of Assistant Phys
ical Instructor Leslie Clough I'm
bued with the belief that every stu
dent owes it to his country to place
himself in the highest possible plane
from physical and mental stand
point, thus enabling him to give his
best service in a military way or
otherwise, when called upon, DR..
Clough has placed the matter square
ly before the students themselves,
with the result that the present
classes in boxing and gymnastic work
are much larger than ever before in
the history of the college, despite a
decreased male enrolment, due to
the war
Regular lines of athletics, such
as football baseball and the other
college sports, result in excellent
training for few men who are pro-
ficient in those lines, but do not
reach the man who most needs the
training" said DR.. Clough in discus
sing his plans. Two hours of phys
ical training weekly are required, but
this is not enough. The visit of
President Foster to the college was
a source of great inspiration to the
men and practically all of them have
responded to my appeal for added
voluntary training. 1t is my desire,
through intensive training, to raise
every man in college to as near 100
per cent in physical endurance and
mental power as is possible"
DR.. Clough is now devoting his at
tention to boxing and other indoor
AZ men turning out for box
ing instruction last night Later he
will inaugurate outdoor exercises to
Dulld up the vitality of his pupils.
DR.. Clough came to the State Col
lege with years of experience in
athletes and physical in
and is at present eagerly
sought by the st. Louis Cardinals as
trainer for the coming season. Last
week he received a second "feeler,"
this coming from the Boston Ma
tionals, through Manager Stallings.
He announces, however, that he will
not consider either position unless he
is released, without friction, from his
contract here by the board of re-
gents and Prof. J. F. Boiler, head
of the department of physical edu
cation.
