FIGHTING U-BOATS
American Vessels Cross the At
IantiC in Winter.
BATTLE WAY THROUGH GALES
Small Undersea Craft Make Long
Journey Without Accident and Are
Now Aiding Allies in the
War Zone.

Washington, April l0-In the face
of bitter winter gales American sub
marines, primarily designed for oper-
ations off the home coasts, have
crossed the Atlantic TO engage in the
common fight against German U-boats.
They are now aiding allied naval
forces, as are American deStrOyers and
American naval airmen, and they have
been in the war zone for some months
Secretary Daniels revealed the fact
that the submarines had gone over
there in his address at Cleveland last
Saturday AT Liberty loan celebration,
but gave no details.
1t is now possible. however, to tell
for the first time of the midwnter pas
sage of the boats across the seas in
the face of the most severe weather
known in years. In the perilous pas
Sages the best traditions of the serv-
ice were maintained.
Arrangements Kept Secret.
The first submarines to leave got
under way in early winter. Arrange
ments for the trip were made without
Il hint appearing in the papers
The steps taken TO get them across
cannot he disclosed. but the fact that
the department has no disaster TO re-
cord is pointed to as proof Of their
Sufficiency.
Officers and men of the submarines
faced hard days as they put out.
Cramped in narrow quarters and with
storms in prospect, they steered to
sea with complete confidence in them
selves and their boats.
A lacOnlc report of uneventful voy-
ages bore out that confidence.
In mid-December others got started.
While It was fair on sailing day ahead
Of the submarines 100-mile gale was
brewing. Into # they plowed, rolling
and tumbling.
Submarines Hunt U.Boats.
Little has been said Of the work of
the British and French submarines in
the U-boat hunt. They art playing
definite part, however, and lurking
close to enemy bases. There have been
encounters between submarines re-
ports of which read like fiction.
The service has been described as
trying one. for which men of courage
and daring are needed II Is In that
work, presumably that the American
submarines are engaged.

Issued World Proclamation.
In a series Of mastery state papers
Mr.. Wilson has announced to the world
that America enters the war unselfish-
ly, and has defined the true issue
for all the peoples of the earth-even
for those deuded portions Of the Ger
man population which, because of
false system OF education, have hith-
erto upheld the hands Of the worst
enemies Of liberty, the iunkers. Until
quite recently, one Of the most dis
uuieting symptoms from the point or
view Of the allies was q discomfort
with, II not an actual opposition to, the
war Of large elements among the work
Ing classes OF the allied peoples. In
Russia. where democracy was most
cruelty suppressed, where conditions
for the peasant and the worklngman
were hardest, a revolution actually
took place-a revolution that has
sounded the keynote of our times. The
world service which our president is
doing is that OF enlisting the allie
glance Of those masses for the war.
He is convincing them that II Is their
war. And these are they upon whom
the evils Of an outword economic sys-
TEN have pressed hardest, and who
hitherto have seen little hope that vic
tory over the Germans meant their
own deliverance. Mr.. Wilson has Is
sued world proclamation Of emanci'
patton from economic slavery.
Make Their Own Treaties.
He not only declares that powerful
nations shall cease to exploit little ma
lions, but that powerful individuals
shall cease TO exploit their fellow men.
He declares that henceforth no wars
shall be fought for domination, and
that to this end secret treaties shall
be abolished. The peoples through
their representatives shall make their
own treaties. And just as national
democracy lnsures TO the individual
the greatest amount of self-determina-
ton, Of liberalization, world democ-
racy shall insure self-determlnatlon to

order that each may be free 20 make

Since the announcement of the regula-
tions some weeks ago, reports received
at the office Of Provost Marshal General
Crowder show many registrants hare
complied with the order. The result has
been material increase in the available
supply Of labor for essential industries,

and with the loss Of this advantage goes
the power to deal q decisive blow.
"An now turns upon the speed with
which our troops get to France and the
prompness with which they are thrown
into the line, q promptness only to be
attained by temporarily assigning our
smaller units to our Allies. If the pres
ent pace of shipment be maintained
and the existing system of brigading with
the French and the British is continued,
it il not too much to hope that by August
or September Americas contribution
alone will suffice to deprive the German
of the superiority Of numbers without
which he can not enforce his local vic
tories by q supreme thrust.
Thus, the appearance of our troops in
Picardy and in Champagne l. the certain,
sign Of improving Allied prospects. The
German, seeing these signs, must hasten
his blows, as Napoleon at Waterloo
fastened his blows when, Prussian coll
Imns were sighted on the road from
Wavre. Quickening the pace means in
creasing the rapidity of the exhaustion
Of numbers. It spells ultimate ruin If,
as at Waterloo, the victory finally es-
canes the, assailant. But Wellington
would have been ruined at Waterloo if
Blucher had failed to keep his pledge and
push to his assistance. The Allies will
be destroyed if there is any hesitation
now either in the sendong of our troops
OF the prompt transfer of those sent to
the Allied service. "-Literary Digest
