EARNS IA CENTS A DAY;
HAS WIFE AND BABY
And Yet This True Story Has a
Happy Ending.

Even a Frenchman sometimes loses,
for awhile at least, his "unfailing"
sense of humor.
Take, for instance, the case Of
man from Lille, soldier, Waeltele by
name and only twenty-three. He had
done pretty well, for the youngster had
already his own printing shop in that
northern French town, which is still in.
side the German lines. In the trenches
Waeltele developed tuberculosis, and
ne was sent to hospital at Grenoble.
There he was considered incurable,
and after the usual three months of
treatment he was granted his IA cents
q day pension. Said his fatherly army
doctor, "My son, you can perhaps cure
yourself If you will live in the noun
tains, If you will eat plenty of nour-
ishing food and, above all, If you don't
worry"
Waeltele should have smiled, but he
didn't. He was thinking Of his baby
and his wife-and his IA cents. "Don't
worry!" The humor of 1t entirely es-
capped him.
Then the Red Cross stepped in. He
was found by an American woman
with some American Red Cross money
for just such cases, and within a few
hours he no longer had need to worry.
He was sent to the mountains at La
mure, in the French Alps, happy in
the knowledge that his family was be-
ing cared for by these amazingly kind
Americans.
And now the army doctors words
are coming true Waeltele's lung is
healing fast, and he is dreaming of
another printing shop and of living
again some day with that little family.
There have been over 100000 new
cases of tuberculosis in France since
the war started, and to care for these
cases and check the White Plaques
spread is merely one of the big jobs
the American Red Cross has set out to
accomplish.

BY ARTHUR MANN,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
LONDON, June lat is too
early to forecast what the presence
of German submarines off the Ameri-
can coast may portend," said Sir Eric
Geddes, first lord Of the admiralty
in an interview with the United Press
today.
"On the one hand it may be merely
a sporadic raid similar to that carried
out by the U-53 earlier in the war, or
it may mean the beginning of Sc
rious submarine campaign off the
American coast. The vigorous Brit
ish anti-submarine campaign in our
waters has made submarine opera
tons very costly to the Germans and
perhaps they calculate on getting bet
ter results along the American coast.
In this, however, they will undoubt-
edly he disappointed since all our ex-
perience over here has been placed
without reservation at the service of
the American administration which
will thus be able to base its anti-sub-
marine measures on practical results
"There is no indication that there
has been sudden increase in the
number of enemy submarines. On
the contrary there is no doubt we are
sinking submarines faster than the
Germans are building them"
In response to questions, Sir Eric
Geddes then outlined the course of
German submarine strategy since the
outbreak of the war.
cat first the submarines operated
fifty miles or so from the British
coasts" he said. "Afte a time our
defenses in that vicinity became too
good for them to combat and they
we're forced to within ten miles Of
the coast, where for some time they

wise and unattached and unconvoyed
Again our defenses

operate far out at sea, whereupon we
the convoy system and
foiied them once more. Now they
are trying the same thing off the
American coast where they win be de-
feated by the same tactics as over
here"
Sir Eric pointed out that there il

some advantage in forcing the sub
marines to perat farther from the
German bases.
"The longer they have to travel to
reach the operating zone, the less fuel
and supplies they will have and con-
sequently the less time they will have
to spend in the operating zone"
In reply to a question regarding
the type of submarine operating in
American waers the FIRST Lord declar-
ed a
Possibly a submarine Of the con-
verified Deutschland type is being
used. 1t do not believe she is the
much talked of giant submarine type
but is probably of type with a long
cruising and operating radius"
Sir Eric said it is possible that the
Germans might have been able to
establish fuel depot on the Ameri-
can coast at some isolated point but
he does not believe the submarine
base has been established.
"a submarine base means more
than fuel depot" he said. "It in
cludes a repair dock. After a sub
marine has been out for three weeks
it usually needs overhauIing. 1t il
pretty difficult to establish such d
base on a hostile coast. There would
be much more chance of establishing
it on less carefully guarded neutral
coast"
Geddes though it was difficult to
say what classes of ships submarines
would attack IN future but believed
any attacks on American troop trans
ports would inevitably rebound
against Germany by increasing Amer
ica's determination and adding to the
severity Of her fighting. We plainly
indicated his belied that this is the
last desperate phase Of German SUBJ
marine piracy. It should not cause
any further anxiety regarding he
submarine situation. he said, but
should only cause a searching Of their
hearts BY the German people who
have been tricked into believing the
submarines win win the war for them.

FATHER AT WAR,
TRAGEDY AT HOME
Just What Home Service Means
to a Soldier.

The father kisses his wife and kid
dies goodby, shoulders his gun and
marches away to war.
For time the current Of life flows
smoothly for the soldiers little fami-
~. Then comes the tragedy. Mother
is taken i'll. The little brood of broth
ers and sisters is helpless. No father
to turn to. A helpless mother
To whom can the American soldiers
family look at this critical period?
Must a brave mans loyalty to his
country mean deSolatiOn and suffering
to those nearest and dearest to him?
Mol Emphatically MOI The Ameri-
can people will not permit the fami-
lies of their soldiers and sailors to
suffer because their breadwinners are
fighting for their country. And so the
Red Cross Department of Civilian Re-
lief has created a nationwide organ
ization for home service for the fami-
lies of soldiers and sailors.
Under the banner Of Home Serv-
ice" patriotic men and women have
enrolled and are devoting themselves
to the noble task of helping soldiers
families to meet and adjust the prob
lens of everyday life and aiding them
to maintain the standards Of health,
education and industry.
Home ServIce-True Service.
Home service means keeping the sol
dier's children well and in school. 1t
means tiding the family over financial
troubles, arranging the household
budget, meeting insurance premiums,
adjusting mortgage. bringing med
ical aid and legal advice to bear at the
right moment. In short Home Serv-
ice is true service, in that 1t provides
the warm handclasp of friendship
rather than the humiliation Of charity.
1t calls for sympathetic understanding
and intelligent consideration of the
most vital needs of the soldiers family.
The Red Cross is pledged to "Home
Service. wherever needed in the Unit
ed States In each chapter of the Red
Cross there viii be home service
section, under competent hands, whose
mission will be to protect the welfare
Of the soldiers and sailors homes and
to safeguard the normal development
of their families in employment and In
ideals Of self help and self reliance.
