STAKES ALL ON U-BoATs.
Germany Hopes to Stsve Out All He
Allies Now.

London, Jan. l2.-Germany Is depend
ing on her u,boats TO defeat the Amer
lean menace and bring about peace, de
clarcs the Berlin Tageblatt, copy OF
which has been received here.
"The entire entente hopes" says this
newspaper" are now based on expected
help from the United States. Whether
the Americans will be able TO provide a
! fighting army in numbers sufficient TO
bring about decision, whether they will
be able To furnish sufficient ships for the
transport of the army and whether they
will then be able To provide the neces-
sary supplies of food and war materials
are questions upon which opinion is d.
vided But there Is no doubt the efforts
the Americans ara making must be taken
seriously, The hope of an early peace de-
ponds also entirely on the efficacy OF our
submarine weapons
Reviewing the first year OF Germany's
ruthless submarine campaign which ends
Feb. the Tageblatt asserts that the
central powers have succeeded in com
pletely upsetting the economic life of the
entente and adds that the submarine
campaign, which has now become the
principal factor in naval warfare, is be-
ing expanded and developed still fur
Their.
Summarizing the results OF the under
water campaign since February |, the
Tageblatt claims that U-boats have sunk
on an average of s2l 900 tons of shipping
monthly from February to December,
and for the whole year the toll may be
expected to show nearly 100000 tons
and that the building of new ships by
the entente and neutrals during the year
will replace only between 100000 and
4 100000 tons of these losses.
The newspaper says the monetary loss
to Germany's enemies as the result OF |
the years work by the U-boats viii |
reach S5O00O00 900, figuring the value
Of the ships at $3.50 per ton and their car
goes at the same amount.

| Col. II. T. johnson said that he is hav
ling many requests relative TO the land
service of those who enlist in the sig
nal corps. and he thinks that the fol-

who might be interested in enlisting:
IT is believed that there are a large
number of men within the draft age who
are suitable for signal corps work, but
who will delay applying for induction
under section 100 of the selective service
regulations for the reason that they are
unaware that the trade or profession in
which they are qualified could be used
to advantage in the land division of the
signal corps.
1t is recommended that publicity be
given to the fact that voluntary Undue
ton in the land division of the signal
corps under section $50 of the selective
service regulations is possible for men
who are qualified along certain lines All
men indicted under this section are, I'm
less otherwise requested by the chief
signal officer of the army. sent to Fort
Leavenworth, kans.
The land division of the signal corps
is in need of men qualified for the follow
ing duties;
Chaufeurs. motorcycle drivers, and
gas-engine repairmen for duty in field
and telegraph battalions.
Telegraphers. both wire and radio.
Telephone men, including switchboard
operators, telephone repairmen and men !
skilled in testing and repairing tele-
phones in line
Linemen, telegraph and telephone.
Photographers, still and moving,
Homing pigeon men.
Radio men who are familiar with in
Sailing radio apparatus
Also men qualified as cooks, clerks,
