ZEEBRUCCE RAID
 GREAT SUCCESS

LONDON, April 25.-A high naval official told the Associated Press to- night that the British raid upon the submarine base at Zeebrugge Tues. day was a complete success and that that port can no longer be used by the Germans as base for sub- marine operations directed against shipping in the North sea. The Zee. brugge channel has been completely closed up by the block ships sunk by the British.
 The importance of this feat can not be exaggerated. since it forces the Germans to operate entirely from the Ostend base. Any of the enemy craft putting to sea must do so from Ostend. This route is much more easily handled by the British than the Zeebrugge channel, and will re- suit in a radical curtailment in the operations of the enemy submarines. The price paid by the British for this achievement is small in com. parison to its importance.

MOTOR LAUNCHES RESCUE SAILORS
Associated Pressl

DOVER. England. April 25.-One of the most thrilling and spectacular bits of warfare on the seas since the beginning of the war is reported to have occurred in connection with the recent British raid on the Ger man submarine bases of Ostend and Zeebrugge, when two American built motor launches rescued crews from two of the ships sunk at the en. trance of the Bruges ship canal. By a daring exhibition of nerve and superb seamanship these launches picked up 200 members of the block ships and brought them off to safety.
 The block ships had been laid be. fore the mouth of the Bruges canal and the crews were in danger of being killed by the heavy fire of the German guns or captured when the two launches made dash for them and. under a galling fire of the Ger. man guns, accomplished the transfer which consumed less than five min utes. The launches escaped without any damage and few casualties

MEN
 SIGNING NAME
 REQUIRES CARE

With the approaching induction into service of the men registered in this district comes the question of proper identification of the enlisted men. The importance of giving the full name is fully set forth in an article of the Official Bulletin, which is as follows:
 There are more than 100000 Smiths" listed in the allotment and allowance fil,s of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance of the Treasury De ,040 John Smiths, 200 John A. Smiths, 1.560 William Smiths. and 200 William H. Smiths. It takes 11C card index trays and a good sized squad of filing experts to keep track of all the enlisted men in the fight ing forces of the country who an swer to the name of Smith"
 There are more than 100000 cards in the allotment and allowance files of the Bureau of War-Risk Insur. ance, and because of the great repe tition of certain names Secretary McAdoo has asked all soldiers and sailors to give their full names, not initials. in applications and in cor. respondence, and to write all names in clear, legible hand, printing them out rather than using script.
 Full Name and Address Necessary
 There are 262 John J. O'Briens in the files. and in 50 cases the wifes name is Mary" There are 15,000 Millers and 15,OOO Wilson's on file in the bureau. There are 1000 John Browns, and 1900 John Johnsons It is not enough to say George Mil ler," for there are 1,040 of these nor is it enough to say George J Miller," for this is not unique. The full name and the complete post office address are both necessary to identify a man.
 Soldiers and sailors are therefore urged to give explicit, complete, and careful information concerning their names, post office addresses, and rank and organization at time of application. in their applications and in letters addressed to the bureau
 The importance of clear, legible hand writing is strongly emphasized by the Bureau of War-Risk Insur ance. Allotment and allowance awards have sometimes been delayed by baffling signatures. by incomplete addresses, and by failure to notify postal authorities of removal. In correspondence with the bureau and on all applications. names and ad dresses should be printed, rather than written in script.

FOX CITIZENS
 GOOD RUSTLERS
 FOR UNCLE SAM

While the citizens of Fox may not be living in large community, they have spirit of enterprise that is creditable to a larger place. The present campaign for the sale of Third Liberty Loan bonds has de- veloped some unique methods for in- ducing the sales of Uncle Sam's sin ews of war.
 Yesterday afternoon those having the bond campaign in charge there conceived the idea of making the bonds go little faster than by the regular channels and had drawing Tickets numbered from one to one hundred were placed in an cnve- lope and as the purchaser drew a number he was required to pay as many cents as the number called for. Some difficulty was experienced in making change when genius suggested that postage stamps be used as a medium, which was, done greatly adding to the revenue of the post office.
 Within a few hours there had been disposed of two bonds, at a nominal cost to the winner. The first bond was won by Willis Nicely Jr., with number 67. The second was won by Gedeon Valley with number 95. The bonds were of the ffty-dollar denomination. Another drawing will be held tomorrow. and judging by the speed with which the other chances were sold, it is probable that three or more draw ings will be held.

PROHIBITION AS
 AWAR MEASURE
iAssnnlnted prnSsN


 WASHINGTON. D. C., April 26.- Representative Berkley, of Kentucky, today introduced bill providing for the absolute prohibition of the mana facture and distribution of alcoholic liquors for the period of the war, Ii was referred to t special committee for action and will probably come up in the house within a short time, as it's supporters will endeavor to press it forward to the head of the calendar.
 It is believed that any fight to be made upon the measure will be made in the committee. If it is recom- mended for passage by the commit tee it will probably pass the house without serious opposition or pro- longed debate from the floor of the house.
