GERMANY IS BITING
HAND THAT FEEDS IT
Unrestricted U-Boat Warfare
Against Norwegian Fishing
Boats Is Under Way.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
cHRIsTIANIA. Norway. May 30
German submarines again have
started unrestricted warfare ON Nor-
wegian fishing boats in the Arctic
ocean north ana east Of the Nor
wegian coast. Fishermen saved from
sunken vessels and landed at Aam.
merfest report that the commander Of
a U-boat stated that all vessels met
by him would be sunk. Norwegian
ships especially would be destroyed
because. he said. the Norwegians
were sending fish oil and seal oil to
England. This. however, 10 contrary
to the truth. as the export Of oils is
forbidden and Germany knows 1t.
Shell Without Warning.
The U-boats are said to shell vessels
without warning and. according to
the survivors. direct a IRE against
Hfeboats.
Russian fishing boats and a Russian
mail steamer from Vardoe. eastward
bound and overcrowded with passen-
sons. among them a postmaster and
his assistants. were killed on the deck
of the steamer. Many others were
hurt after taking to the boats.
When the commander of one Ger.
man submarine was advised that
Russia was at peace with Germany
he answered that he acted tho way
1t suited him. The U-boat measured
$50 feet in length and surprise is
caused in shipping circles that 1t can
carry enough oil for a cruise so far
up the Norwegian coast.
Great bitterness has been caused
among the Norwegian population by
the action Of the submarines. as Ger
many gets large part Of the fsh
caught around these places. The
newspapers suggest that fishermen
stop selling their catch to Germany.

Lieut. Pat" OBrien Of the British
Flyish Corps. who will lecture at the
New National Theater Thursday after
noon for benent Of the Brtish-Amer-
|ican war relief fund, is the holder of
several rechrds which may well be
considered unique
His 10 said to be the only case on
record Of an escape by an aviator
from the clutches Of the Hun. On his
return to England he was granted the
longest interview with King George
that monarch has permitted since the
beginning of the war. having held the
king spellbound for ffty-five MINUTES.
The actual experiences of this young
officer, who is usually called Smiling
Pat" and who is but twenty-seven
years Of age, would inspire with envy
a movie" director specializing in
faxed thrills.
To begin with, o'Brien was brought
down, in his machine from q height OF
only to become q prisoner Of the Ger.
mans.
Next he Jumped from the train in
which he was being conveyed to q
| prison; camp in the interior OF Gsr-
many. the rate Of speed Of the train
being no less than thirty-nve miles
| an hour at the time. After this he
| spent seventy-two days crossing Ger
| man territory to Holland, most of
| the time crawling to avoid detection,
and clad in full British uniform.
Was Born in Illinois.
Lieut., O'Brten. who was born in
Momence. I'LL. is now on a three
month leave, and is seeking to
transfer to the American Army. At
the lecture Thursday he will tell in
| detail Of his almost unbelievable ad-
ventures.
Tho aviator has said recently that
| unless there be an absolute crop
| failure in Germany the Huns can
fight for years yet. and the only way
to stop the immense world slaughter
is to "get together and do it quick
ly." He also stoutly maintains that
all Of the dangerous aviation stunts
now being demonstrated by fliers in
this country are absolutely necessary
al part Of the everyday fighting
routine Of the air battler.
