ed and commissioned and now plying
their way upon the seas. Others are
in the final stages of completion and
will soon 60 forth to carry the flag.
Today's launchings, however, are by
their number significant of the ca
pacity Of the American yards to pro-
duce results, and are to be accepted as
IN assurance that the German subma-
rines cannot lessen our war strokes,
that indeed the German campaign Of
sea terrorism has failed.
These ninety-three ships that slide
today off the ways will touch water
at tifty-one different points upon our
wide-fiung sea and lake front. They
will indicate nationwide revival of
an industry that had all but died from
lack Of support. The sound Of the
riveter's hammer and the caulker's
mallet has been heard in places that
have not witnessed activity of this sort
in a generation or two, if ever before.
The marvel Of the matter is not merely
the speed with which this industry has
been brought into such active being,
but the spread of it, the magnitude of
the organization.
Today's launchings constitute Uncle
Sans answer to the kaiser's challenge
when he began. his ruthless submarine
warfare upon our people.
Evening star., 1918-07-04
What's in q Namef

In letter to the chairman of the
House military committee Secretary
Baker says that it has been found nee
essary to change the name of the zone
behind the armies from "service of the
rear" to ''scrvice Of supply" because
Of difficulty in getting men to serve in
a dcsignatcdly "safe" capacity. Again,
he says that our men have objected to
the term "no mans land" as a name
for the zone between the lines, and pre-
fer to call it "Yankee land" Good
work! Let the names be changed as
the spirit Of the American fighters die
tates. It is heartening to know that
Americans do not want to serve in
safe non-comEatant capacities, impor-
tant and essentia! though they may be.
And Judging from the work they have
lone already our men have mastered
"no mans land" often enough to give
them title to that strip, wherever it
may lie.

Independence Day.

Americas Independence day becomes
the day of world liberty. 1t is cele-
brated today in all the lands from
which forces have been sent to COM
bat the menace of German militarism,
tie foe of democracy. The countries
opposed to the Teutonic terror are in
deed allied when they adopt the Amer
lean day of freedom from autocratic
rule as symbol of the principle for
which they are now sacrificing their
manhood.
It is 3 happy augury for the worlds
riddance of the danger of Germanism
that even in England, the land from
whose rule the American people 142
years ago declared their independence,
this day is observed with ceremonies
and in spirit Of comradeship. Eng
land today appreciates that the Ameri-
can revolt was against the autoeraey
Of German king, himself alien to the
British institutions and spirit. France
recognizes in tho American day of In
dependence the beginning of the proc
ess through which she herself passed
. little later than in this land and
laid the foundations for the free in
Etitutions Of today.
Here in the capital of the American
republic the day is observed in man
ner to arrest the thought of the peo-
pies of all lands. Representatives of
all the nations now enrolled in the
fight for human liberty participate in
. pageant that has never before been
approached for significance and splen-
dor. Groups of these various nationali-
ties are to portray their respective as
pirations and achievements in sym
bolic actions The program is SO ar
ranged as to afford to everybody an
opportunity to observe and study the
contributions by these individual rep
resentations.
This is the highest form of popular
conmemoration of a day which has a
deep meaning for the people. The bar
barrie practices of the past lave been
abandoned The day has gained in dig
nifty ana meaning and no longer exacts
a toll in lives and limbs. Independence
day is now welcomed, not dreaded, and
each successive observance elevates the
patriotic spirit Of the people and
strengthens the ties that bind them
to the government Of which they are
the essence, and which is today moving
with such surprising and gratifying
speed to make effective in the field of
battle their chosen course of conflict
for human rights

Ships.

A feature of today's national Inde-
pendenee day program that will mean
more than anything else is the launch
ing ut the ship yards Of this country
Of nearly one hundred vessels, the larg-
est single contribution to the winning
Of the war produced on any single day
since we entered the fight. These ships
represent the elimination of long eff
forts toward the creation of an Ameri-
con merchant marine. The war has
tened into being a program of ship
construction that had been considered
and debated and postponed. Whereas
before we entered the war ships were
regaI ded as needed solely for CONNER
cial purposes, to send the flag upon
the seas to extend our trade, now they
are vital necessity. They are as es-
sential to victory in the field as fight
ing men or guns or ammunition.
German U-boats have taken a tre-
mendous toll Of the worlds shipping.
The ocean bottoms are strewn with the
hulls Of vessels sunk with their cargoes
An untold treasure has been destroyed,
to the end that the entente allies might
DO starved into submission. This wick
ed course Of devastation and slaughter
has yielded NO such result. It has
only served to add to Germany's enc.
mics and to destroy whatever chance
she may have had to win the war. I.
has entailed terrible suffering. 1t has
caused the death Of thousands OF
human beings. But it has not advanced
Germany's cause in the slightest.
Now We are putting forth our first
large contribution Of ships Some have
gone cut already, launched and finish,
Evening star., 1918-07-04
Germany Seeks to Dodge.

The effrontery with which Germany
seeks to avoid responsibility for the
sinking Of the hospital ship Liando-
very Castle Is quite as offensive as the
act itself. A semi official note sent
from Berlin to Amsterdam states that
the loss of tho vessel was due in all
probability to her striking a British
mine. The note adds: at appears
from later news that no one on board
the steamer observed a U-boat or a
torpedo" Evidently Berlin. does not
know that We have specific and cor
roborated testimony by survivors, not
merely Of the presence Of the subma-
rine. but Of the efforts Of the sub

marine commander to destroy the sur
vivors as they foated about in boats
after the explosion. We have the tes-
timony of an officer who was taken on
board the submarine and cross-exam-
ined under suspicion that he Was an
American belligerent. U-boat atrocity
survivors nave never yet been caught
telling lies. Berlin, on The contrary,
has never told the truth about the sub
marines.

Farewell to Garabed |!
From the New York Tribune.


There were solemn and intelligent folk
something worth investigating that
might win the war in no time. So Con-
gress very sensibly Investigated.
In finding that the marvellous scheme
of summoning free energy" from the
atmosphere was unsound and without
practical value the congressional in
vestigators hit a very timely blow at q
great deal besides Garabedianism. 1t
has been weakness Of a good many
Americans. some Of them in high places,
that they have insisted upon believing
that the war could be won by some
kocus-pocus, without the hard years OF
lighting and sacrifice. Russia would do
it, or aeroplanes would do 1t, or the So
cialists would do II, or Austria would do
.it. Gaxabedians, ALI

Statistics are not usually very in
teresting or impressive to the average
citizen. This is far from being the
case with the announcements of the
War Department as to the number of
men overseas.

The theory that man has developed
from the lower forms Of creation
found very wide acceptance. It re-

He planted some potatoes,
And he planted several beans;
He dallied with tomatoes,
And with various sorts of green's.
BE spoke with great decision
OF the things he'd eat and can
Then he turned the proposition
Over to hired man.

Whero the sunshine was aglow.
The hired man was applaudiug
At moving picture show.
Like the ends Of many stories
This is sorrowful indeed
Just a lot of morning glories
and q bunch Of jimson weed.
