McAdOO to Raise
Rail Rates Further

Washington, June 5.-Hundreds of
local and special rate revisions will be
ordered by Director General McAdoo
before June rs, when the new rate
schedules go into effect, the Railroad
Administration announced yesterday.
This decision followed receipt of more
than 1000 specific complaints from
shippers
Meeting with the Interstate Com
merce Commission yesterday, mem
bers of the National Association of
Railway and Utility Commissioners,
representing about 80 Western States,
explained that the rate structures
within their sales would be badly dis
ruped if the new rates should go into
effect without changes to maintain ex-
listing differentials and rate relation
ships. They will submit an extensive
list of changes to be recommended.
Several state commissions have asked
a postponement of the effective date
of the new rate order.
Eatern oil producers, live stock and
gain interests protested in person to
the Railroad Administration yesterday
against abolition of differentials. The
National Association of Sand and
Gravel Producers complained that the
new rates would close hundreds of
sand and gravel plants and would
forceb uilding and highway contract
ors to abrogate contracts. State and
local Highway Commissioners sent
similar protests.
Iowa meat packers objected to the
meat products to the Atlantic Coast
was the same as for livestock. New
England paper manufacturers urged
that the higher rates be constructed in
such a way as not to eliminate present
differentials affecting competing paper
and pulp producers.
Scores of requests to maintain spe-
| cial excursion rates to summer
| schools. state fairs and conventions
are reaching the Railroad Administra-
| ton, and many will he granted.
All previous orders which might in
| terfere with the recent general in
crease in freight and passenger rates
were set aside yesterday by the Inter
state Commerce Commission. The
commission also issued a formal order
putting into operation Secretary Nc
Adoos plan for a one cent a mile rate
| to soldiers on furlough.

DENIES TALES OF
U-BOAT CRUISERS

London, June 5-Stories of Ger
many's submarine cruisers may be
dismissed, says Archibald H. Hurd,
widely known writer on naval sub
jects, in an article appearing in the
Daily Telegraph.
''They are merely large subma-
rines such as we have seen building,
he says. "They do not represent a
triumph of German engineering any
more conspicuous than triumph our
shipbuilders have achieved. It was
500 tons could remain at sea only
a short time, were very uncomforta-
BILE, and the conditions were very
telling on the nerves of the crews
that the enemy evolved a larger type,
modelled on the Deutschland. This
type having been designed, it was
decided to indulge in exaggeration,
in order to impress the world.
What is the truth about the Ger
man submarines?" he continues.
These cruisers displace not 5000
tons, but about 1900. They are not
$50 feet long, but less than 800 feet
Their sped on tn surfac is not %
knots, but about ~ knots. When sub
merged they do not travel at the rate
of Is knots per hour, but approx
mately 10 knots or so.
at happens that we have heard
more about the operations of Ger
man submarines than about the Brit
ish simply because the enemy offers
few targets for our submarins, while
we offer the enemy thousands of tar
gets every week. The percentage of
hits by our submarines is, in fact,
about three times that of the Ger
mans, which in itself indicates the
high standard of efficiency of British
ship design, construction, and opera
ton.
"The work which British subma-
rines are doing is magnificent. Our
officers are handicapped by many
things besides the small number of
targets. afforded them. The Ger
mans are able to maintain their cam
paign only by defying every law OF
every nation and ignoring the ordi-
nary dictates of humanity"

ferceness of the Allied machine gun
fire, French and American troops,
fighting side by side. almost wiped
out small German forces which had
reached the left bank of the Marine
near Jaulgonne, east of Chateau
Thierry. Most of the enemy surviv-
ors were rounded up in small groups
and made prisoners.
On Monday in the attack against
the Germans at Veuil1y the Americans
drove them back one and half kilo-
metres on the front of a narrow
salient The ground was cleared of
the enemy and the Americans are
now holding their position there. The
American losses, according to the lat
est reports available, were exceeding
ly light, most of them resulting from
shell fire.
The first Americans to enter the
battle zone were troops of a machine
gun battalion. They rode on trucks
during all of Friday night and arriv-
ed at their new position, on Saturday
morning. These were the troops that
repulsed the enemy which attempted
to cross the Marine river.
The machine gunners were station
ed within a certain town and began
operations by poking the muzzles of
their weapons through broken walls,
bushes and holes knocked in the side
of houses. The guns were skilfaf1y
hidden and the Germans were unable
to locate them. The Germans shel1ed
tho forur heavily and tho Avoa,;oo7 nc
took positions accordingly. Later the
enemy entered the outskirts only to be
pounded by the Allied artillery.

German aviators has become the newest
trick Of the American hiers. When the
enemy bombing planes came in groups

to hunt for them. Among the Ameri-
cans was Major Harold Hartney of Pas
adena, Cal, who got nearer to the Ger
mans than any other of our aiers.
Il was so close to one Boche,' Major
Hartney said. '.that 1 could see his
tracer bullets shooting groundward. In
the moonlight the German was attempt
ing to strafe the roadways, thinking he
saw troops. The tracer bullets at in
tervais shot through the air like light
ming flashes and / followed them here
and there but could not see the Bochs.
Then / maneuvered and tried to get
the German between myself and the
moon, but never could see him
These night patrols are continuing

til dawn.
