| Nine fishing schooners were sunk

marine, naval scout boat, which put
in at Nantucket, Mass, reported. The
scout boat picked up word Of the raid
from the auxiliary fishing schooner
Helen Murley, which had rescued four
| survivors and was taking them to an
Atlantic port. Six auxiliary fishing
schooners and other craft sailed at
once from this port to pick up sur
Vivors. Georges Banks are sixty
miles of this island. The first reports
of the attack did not mention what
means the submarine took to sink the
defenseless craft

Fla, and inflicted property and stock
damage estimated at $250.O0O. The
fire caused a tie-up in street car traffic
until noon next day.
A conservative estimate Of material
damage, resulting from the storm
which swept the Lake Charles, La,
section, is placed at one million dol
lars. The casualty list in the stricken
area has reached 10 dead and 20 Sc
riously wounded.
twenty-five of the twenty-four hang
ars on Gerstner field were blown down
in the storm which swept the Lake
Charles, La, section, and many air
planes were destroyed or entirely
swept away.
The Diamond Shoals 1ightship, off
Cape Hatteras, N. c., was shelled and
sunk by an enemy submarine. The
crew, taking to the lifeboats, was en-
tirely saved.

Chairman Hurley Of the shipping
board says several thousand inquiries
from youths under the draft age who
want to go to sea have been made to
him. The fact that the government
is building a merchant marine for the
future is probably impelling many to
seek admission to be trained as sail
ors, cooks and stewards, because they
intend to stick to the service after
the war is over.

THREE HUSKY FELLOWS READY TO

SIX t1mes<fthis amount of money ex

ton of good fertilizer will now cost
about $500. The plant food in this
quantity when applied to three acres
OF land will give an increase of about
75O pounds of lint cotton and 200
pounds of seed. The lint at soc per
pound amounts to $225.OO, and the
seed at $4,000 per ton amounts to
$4,000, making total Of $285.OO.
Few business concerns net 30 nor
cent increase on money invested in
labor, but5 granting that the farmer
will net 100 per cent on his invest
ment in labor, and supposing that he
pays $1.O0 per day for labor. the

Fhe conclusions of the experts were
based upon the testimony of the Neu-
Biological Institute in New York. whose
records show a preponderance of

Washington, March 30.-A new or

Secretary of the Navy Daniels pre-
dicted here tonight in an address be-
fore the National Geographic Society.
The new order, said the secretary,
will: Prevent profiteering; provide
free education, free medical treatment
free hospitals and free public service
to all peoples; and deal a death blow
to individualism in order that all men
may live by cooperation.
He said in part:
With the return of peace, national
lines will remain and love of home
land still grip the hearts of men of
varying chimes and different tongues.
We may not expect all nations to ac-
cept the tenders of worldwide
brotherhood in the spirit in which it
will be rendered by the twentieth
century after the war chiva1ry. There
fore, all the peace loving nations must
enter into an international agreement
neither to throw away their guns nor
to tie up their warships, but to make
them one common International peace
police on land and sea.
Whatever any nation produces that
is good will be made available without
profiteering to men and women in
every other nation. Education to all,
medical treatment, hospitals for the
aged and infirm without cost-the

BY this change the huge gun has its

1t was recognized that special base
would be necessary and heavy trusses
were constructed. Up to the time the.
report was forwarded to the offices
OF the ordnance department. it was be-
iieved the Germans had turned out but
one gun of this type. -
1t Is Not Practicable.
United States officers scout the
theory that the Germans will attempt
to place more guns of this design in
the war. They say the shell is in
capable of doing great damage; that
Its direction connot be controlled be-
cause of the varying air currents en-
countered in its long flight, and that
the huge charge of powder required
to propel the projeotiie is a prohiss-
tory expense when the results achieved
are reckoned with.
The gun, it is believed, was made
and put in action merely as a part of
the German program of frightfulness
which the German mind conceives as
being a powerful factor in destroying
the morale of an army. The fact that
the new engine has failed to create
panic in Paris will discourage the Ger
