By Sir Henry Jspp. Head Of the
Purchasing Department Of the Brit
ish War Mission in New York:
august 4. 1914. will ever be
memorable as the day on which
Great Britain repudisted the German
suggestion that the Treaty Of 1899,
guaranteeing the independence and
neutrality Of Belgium. was but a
scrap Of paper. That decision saved
the world from the domination Of
kultur, and put the issue clearly rs
a contest between Right and Might
between Good and Evil.
Ever since then the British Navy
has slightly held her enemy at bay
while the Allied armies prepared and
brave merchant sailors brought 10

the menace Of lurking submarines

TWENTY-SEVEN BERLINS
IN THE UNITED STATES

There are no less than twenty
seven towns named Berlin in this
country. The United States is
dotted with them. Ohio alone has
four little Berlins. And there are al
most as many American towns
named Bismarck as are named after
our great Lincoln. Lawrence, Kans.,
has a Bismarck grove. Hamburg.
the great Prussian port, has a name
sake in twenty States. Eight Amer
lean towns are named Bremen,
eleven Dresden, twenty-five Hanover.
including one Hanover in Kansas.
There are even two towns named
Kaiser. One is in Missouri and one
is in Wisconsin. but evidently few
people care to live in these two
towns, for their populations are so
small that after the war lot of new
State maps will be needed as nearly
all these towns will be rechristened.

INTERESTING LETTER
FROM SAILOR BOY

ENONH SNss~ 49,
Unit +. Quartermaster School, strs.
Class, Hampton Reads, Va,
Aug. z. 1918.
Dear Interior Journal Editors and
Force: II makes . jackie q little shy
to take his pen in hand to say a word
to the dear friends back home; but
this nervousness goes only to show
the deep feeling we have for all the
dear folks we left behind, though I
know you have big hearts and will
excuse mistakes. With this view !
will say q word.
Now IL you will allow me little
space. I will go back and review my
past few months in the navy, for you.
I enlisted April 9Th, the anniversary
of the declaration Of war, and ar
rived at Great Lakes IL o'clock Tues
day morning of the 18th, had late
dinner or better known in the navy
AZ "chow;" Il was I o'clock, and take
IL from me, whether IL was good grub
or not the boys went after it like
regular veterans. We were all
hooted and followed at and called
''rookies" from the time our train
pulled in sight Of Great Lakes until
we stood in our uniforms looking like
"men-of-wars men," but all this
rookie junk was forgotten at this
first chow. But the fun was yet TO
come for all Of us the first night in
the navy. Just ask some fellows
about Il and I will guarantee they
could tell enough for a chapter in a
book.
We we're issued our hammocks
that afternoon, and about 2 o'clock
the boys started to learn the aero
batic stunt Of climbing in them, and
most Of the night was spent in climb
ing In again by some Of the fellows.
Their hammocks were inclined to
turn as they did, so out they would
60 to meet the floor, five feet below,
by way Of the rapid transit system.
But as it was short fall, few hurt
themselves very much; it just made
some use little rough language and
lay the blame on the kaiser, where II
belongs. Every time a fellow would
thug the floor, all would let out Q
roar of laughter, that could be heard
for several barracks around; ther
you could hear some guard or office
shout, "Pipe down you rockies" Al
would be quiet for a few minutes
then another poor boob" would hi
the floor. So the nights passed TO
the first week or two.
Beyond a doubt the first mont

llth. At s;I5 that morning one Of
the most pleasant punches you ever
saw, boarded the train for home.
There were thirty-four in all. nearly
all the states in the Union were rep
resented In this crowd; but not one
sailor felt any better than l. My
furlough was enjoyed to the fullest,
only regrets were that ! did not have
time to see all the friends and have
longer with the home folks. think
I helped eat about two dozen chickens
while there, which were three meals
a day for eight days. After this
short, happy occasion, ] returned to
Great Lakes and from there we were
sent to this camp. The trip was
much enjoyed by all the boys. We
came over the Pennsylvania line to
Columbus, Ohio, then to Norfolk on
the Norfolk and Western.
The smooth farming lands of Indi-
ana and Illinois looked good, but
when you are looking out for seen

so must hurry to a close. We have
been here at this naval base about
twelve days, waiting to go to sea.
We were scheduled to leave here last
Friday, but were scratched from the
draft, so they said we you'd leave
for sure Monday and were all packed
up to 20, but we were delayed again,

girls hello!

,st time in the navy, or at least II
has been for me up until now. All
have TO work here. The rich mans
son, who was fed all his life with q |
silver spoon, takes q pick or shovel
along side the poor mans son, and
learns the art af manual labor. the
muscle builder. Il makes a smile
come to the face Of the boy who has
experienced labor to see the rich or
city dude swing q pick digging up
hard road, or shoveling rock; but the
boys work together and fulfill the
song to "Smile, boys smile" Yes,
they sure get that style here all right.
After staying for our dinner in
Camp Decatur our company Of about
fifty boys, who went to Great Lakes
from Louisville, moved to Camp
Farragut, where we stayed two weeks;
then we spent a week or ten days in
Camp Dewey, then from there to
Perry, where we stayed two days at
the hardest work I have done in the
navy. We were laying sod and haul
ing dirt in wheelbarrows. tell you
IL was not very much fun to push a
wheelbarrow full Of dirt all day; had
to push each load about FIVE hundred
var ds, or more; some muscle builder,
all "to get the kaiser" and we will
do IL, too.
II was from this camp and Dewey
that we split up our Kentucky bunch.
You know they are so good they have
to scatter them among punches Of
fellows from the other states to make
up what is lacking. Some went out
as apprentice seamen. ! guess most
Of them have become acquainted
with a broom and swab by now, also
scrubbing paint work and shining
brass, but they are on their way to
gold stripers; most Of them though
are just on their way.
II was about May 18th, thirty-four
of us moved to Quartermaster School
main camp Great Lakes. Here i
stayed, worked, drilled and studied
for one month, but during this time
we were allowed liberty twelve to
twenty-four hours each week; believe
me we were shown some grand time
in Chicago.
There were several club rooms
throughout the city, each club Civ
ing their time entirely to the enter
tainment of the jackies. At these
rooms we were given a free lunch
with cakes, candies and ice cream as
desserts, and a pretty girl to eat with
us and tell us nice stories and you
know give you the pleasant smile al
the while. After lunch the evening

YANKEE SEAMEN
CAN LIBEL SHIPS
Supreme Court Rules Only
Americans May Demand
Pay at Port.

The Supreme Court yesterday partly
affirmed decisions of the lower courts
abolishing important provisions of the
La Toilette seamen's act.
The law. which was passed for pro-
lection of seamen. provided that a
sailor could demand half his wages at
any American port. and If they were
refused he could libel the vessel. Ac-
tion of the court yesterday clearly re-
stricts the privilege to Americans.
Advances to seamen were prohibited.
and 1T was made unlawful to give
compensation to a third party for find
ing employment for q sailor All these
provisions were applied to foreign,
vessels touching American ports as
well as vessels of American registry,
The attack on the law was taken to
the Supreme Court in four separate
suits, in which the government inter.
vened on behalf of sailors who had
been denied redress in lower courts on
the grounds that the master of a for
eign vessel could not be forced to nav
half a sailors wages on demand.
Decision Is Reversed.

High Explosives, Projectiles
and Barbed Wire Worry
Traffic Men.

The food of munitions of war
dumped by the railroads at sea-
ports for transport abroad. for
which. since the signing of the
armistice there is no longer any
need. has caused an accumulation
at the seaboard which is taxing
the ingenuity OF the Railroad Ad-
ministration TO remove.
The exports control committee of
the administration reported yester-
day that some Of this material is
being returned to factories, some
placed in storage and some Is to
be taken out to sea and dumped.
Definite arrangements have been
made for the return of the high
explosives belonging to the French
government to the factories, il is
reported This material has been
causing the citizens of Wilmington,
Del. and vicinity some concern.
Other consignments of high ex-
plosives are to be taken out to sea
on barges and dumped when suit
able storage cannot be found.
Empty projectiles for the British
govenment are to be stored on open
ground and sold for scrap.
Barbed wire at Boston is to be
stored at Wakefield. Mass, and an
amount Of this material at New
York has been ordered to Newton
Greek. Brooklyn, for storage. Some
at Philadelphia is being sent to
Newcastle, Del, for storage and in
Baltimore it is being ordered into
storage at Canton and Curtis Bay.
This wire belongs to the French
and italian governments.
