LONDON. May 1.-THE naval raid
on ostend early Friday successfully
accomplished its object, according to
official reports made public here.
The old cruiser Vindictive, filled
with concrete, lies quartering in the
channel Of the German base. As the
ship is $50 feet long and the channel
only 327 feet wide, It is evident that
egress at present Is impossible, except
for very small craft. The rapid de-
posit of silt about the hulk by the
current also will add to the Germans
difficulty in clearing the channel.
The British casualties were re-
markedly light, only five dead, TWEEN
tyrnine wounded and ten missing be-
ing reported.

lated Admiral Keyes, who planned the
operation and witnessed 1t from the

Sore-head, a trouble common to

WOULD GUARD STATUES
Paris Protests Against Neglect Of
Art Treasures.
Allowed to, Stand Exposed to Air Raid
ers-Promise of Aid
Fails.

Paris-Protest has arisen In na1y
quarters here against the deliberate
neglect Of many of the priceless stat
ues and works of art in Paris, which
have been permitted to stand unpro-
tected against possible damage from
enemy air raids and bombardments.
The special commission charged with
the duty Of providing protection for
public monuments of art has been Sc
yerely criticized.
Last year when the danger of air
raids seemed comparatively remote a
dozen or more monuments and statues
were ordered to be protected with sand
bags. Some time afterward s1oaded"
sacks were placed at distance from
the monuments or statues waiting to
be put in place. There they were al
lowed to remain, nothing further be-
ing done. The bags lay about the
statues for weeks.
In the meanwhile there were several
air raids. Fortunately no monument
or statue was hit. On the initiative
of group of citizens work on the pro-
lection of some of the masterpieces
was begun, and many historic pieces
like the vendome Column, the Obelisk,
the Strassbourg Monument and the art
works in the Luxembourg gardens
were given some adequate protection.
Street urchins anxious to play 'fn
the trenches" climbed up among the
bags, causing loose one to slip, with
the result that thousands of bags fell
in an avalanche about many of the
statues. 1t was thereupon found that
the bags were filled with stones or
clinkers.
Art lovers protested and called the
attention of the commission to the
fact that stones and clinkers afforded
no protection against German bombs.
The Paris municipal council is now
taking measures to remedy the present
condition and promises that every valu-
/ able piece of statuary and historical
art will be reasonably protected.

Seafaring Men Now
Have Opportunity
In Tampa Which VIII
Not Come Again

Tampa, Fla, Aug. -"Sea-faring
men who viii come to Tampa for the
coming term of the school of naviga-
ton need not worry about getting
work, if they want it," declared Neal
Storter, instructor in charge of the
free school maintained here by the
United States shipping board. "The
shipyards are cooperating with us and
providing employment for men who
want to work during the six-weeks
term, and | am holding the sessions
of the school at night"
MIR. Storter explained today that
another term would probably be an
nounced for the school here, to open
about August &c. The school which
is turning out mates and masters for
the ships being built for Uncle Sam
all over the country, will be continued
if applicants come forward in suffici-
ent numbers to warrant the organiza-
ton of the fifth class. Mr.. Storter
has already sent out a number of APP
p!ication forms to men with the re-
quired two years experience at sea,
and hopes to hear from at least a
dozen prospective students within the
next ten days.
"The demand for deck officers is
greater than the supply, and is con-
tinually becoming still more out of
proportion" Mr.. Storter says. "The
men who. will finish up their work in
the fourth class will be given ships as
fast as they pass the examinations and
apply to the sea service bureau for
berths, | am confident"
Mr.. Storter explained that there are
also many who are few months
short of the full two years at sea, but
who can enter the school. "On COM
pletion of the course, they can go
aboard ship as junior officers, drawing
$75 month, and when they have
completed their full time, qualify as
officers at pay from two to three times
as much, depending on the size of the
ship they join and the war bonuses
paid. So you see, it will pay all in
terested to write me at P. O. Box 407,
Tampa, Fla, for full information"
