HOW TO.FOIL MACHINE
GUNS TAUGHT AT CAMP
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
FORT MONROE, Va, Aug. 90
Scores of German machine gun nests
hidden in this wood stopped the ad-
vance of our troops but the American
artillery opened so hot and accurate
a fire on them that the majority OF
them were silenced; the infantry then
rushed the Others" is often the word
ing of an official communique from
the front in France.
How to do that little trick is being
taught in the radio school of the Coast
Artillery here. Graduates of this
school are trained to show the men
firing the heavy or light American
guns placed several hundred yards be-
hind the fighting line how to shell and
destroy enemy batteries, bridges, rail-
road centers, storehouses, massed bod
les of troops and all the other re-
sources so necessary and vital to the
enemy.
In this work the Americans in
France have won high commendation
from French as well as American COM
manders. To accomplish this there
must be accurate observation, correct
transmission of the information back
to the artillery headquarters, calcu-
lation of the range and direction at
which to set the guns; and the rest
is simple.
Observations far behind the lines are
made by airplane. The aerial observ-
er has a wireless sending set, and
back near headquarters there is ra-
dio sergeant with wireless recelV-
ing set. As soon as a message is re-
ceived at hearquarters it is telephoned
TO all batteries firing or about to fire
on that target
Telephone lines connect each bat
terry with its headquarters, and each
headquarters with the next higher In
the chain of command. These teie-
phone lines have been constructed
and are maintained under all dnflcui-
ties encountered in modern warfare
by the electrician sergeants. Ihese
electrician sergeants also operate the
searchlights that are used IN hlsn'
operations of all kinds against nos
tile aircraft and bodies of troops.
Every time a gun is shifted, Its
location on the map must be accurate
ly determined by survey and trlangu-
Iation. 1t takes a specialist to do II
and this specialist is an enlisted man
trained as a master gunner.

For slightly more than a half-cent
for every dollar value of ships, the
Shipping Board insures its vessels
against marine losses between Allan
tic and European ports. An addition
al four or five cents for every dollar
covers war losses such as submarine
sinkings, damage done by floating
mines and attacks by enemy vessels.
The boards insurance committee is
composed of HendOn Chubb and II. F.
Eggert, both of New York, and W. K.
Hedge of Boston.
The insurance plan is regarded as a
great aid in defeating the objects of
the sub-sea warfare. Property loss is
protected, and men are willing to risk
their lives with their only protection
their own watchfulness and that of
the Allied navy.
Strange events have marked the sub
marine warfare and the marine insur-
ance that helps block its aims. The
Orleans braved the submarine zone

clared ruthless warfare against all
vessels entering the sO-called barred
zones. The vessel was marked by the

GERMANS RAIDED, RAISE CLAMOR
Loud Response Shows British Bombs
We're Effective.


LONDON, Aug. 20.-One of the most
significant features Of the aerial
bombing offensive of the British is
the loud response it has ELECTED from
the German people, say British news
papers.
The bombing of England brought no
complaint, but only renewed resOlu-
ton from the British people; yet Ger
many, suffering from the first pre-
liminary pangs of the British attacks
at once began to cry out, and protest
upon protest is pouring into the Ger
man authorities from the populace of
the different areas attacked.
This means that the British often
siye is effective, that far-reaching de-
structiOn has been caused to railway
functions and factories, and that the
German claim that British raids have
accomplished nothing serious have
been untrue.
Details of the damage caused b.
the British raids can easily be sUp-
pressed by the German censorship, but
the voice Of the German people can
not permanently be stified, and it is
asserted there is abundant photo

dence that their fears are based upon

IN IRISH RECRUITING
Statements by American

RESULT IS SLIGHT
Ulster, Willing to Accept

DUBLIN, July 25 CBy maiD Amer
ica's participation in the war is the
trump card used by the Irish Re-
cruiting Council, formed to put into
effect the governments offer to &C
cept $4,000 voluntary recruits from
Ireland in place of three or four times
that number of conscripts.
The council is publishing widely the
declarations of American cardinals,
archbishops and bishops an evidence
of cordial participation in the war by
Irish Catholic Americans. They point
out that the war is as much America s
and Frances as it is England's and
urge Irishmen to take a fair share in
it,
So far, they seem to have made on
ly a slight impression. Nationalists
declare that if ireland is to take al
active part in the war it must first
have home rule.
The Ulster party is willing to ac-
cept conscriptiOn.
According to the latest announce
ment of the Government policy the
result may be, three months hence,
the fOrcible application of conscrip-
ton everywhere in Ireland outside
Northeast Ulster. 1t has been decided
to divide Ireland into ten areas and
to apportiOn to each the share of the
fifty thousand recruits it ought to fur
nish.
Any area which furnishes its quota
will be held to have satisfied the claim
upon it, and will be thence forth free
from the application of conscription
1t is regarded as certain that Belfast
and the Northeast area will readily
provide its share of the voluntary re-
crafts, and doubted whether any 9TH
er part of Ireland will do so.
The result would be that only part
of ireland which now declares its
willingness to accept conscription
would be the only part free from it,
The rest of Ireland supposedly would
be a chaos of violent opposition and
resistance.
