German Press Pleased
At U-Boat Raid Here
America Practically Helpless
Against Submarines, AS
serts Naval Expert

AMSTERDAM, June 7.-Captain Won
Kuellwetter, naval expert for the
COLOGNE Gazette" in an article
printed in that paper, describes as a
joyous surprise the appearance of Ger
man submarines off the coast OF the
United States. He says that no barred
zone yet exists off the North American
coast, but it is clear the more the
United States becomes "the centre Of
war assistance tor our enemies the
more might the moment be considered
to have arrived ftr such an attack.
zone can picture the great successes
as result Of an offensive on large
scale in North American waters" says
Captain Won Kuellwetter. "In the
barred regions of England the defence
undoubtedly has developed into we'll
considered system, which is not the
master of our U-boats, but which,
nevertheless, so far as lies within the
enemy's power, renders their task diff
fcut
"There can, of course, be no ques-
ton of such a system in American
waters. Over there they have no ex-
perience. Moreover, America appar-
emily has sent to Europe most of her
few utilizable torpedohoat destroyers.'
New-York tribune., 1918-06-08

ia the folly of undertaking the ingenu-
ity and resource fulness Of the enemy.
1t is to be remembered that Germany
thought 30 highly of the U-hoat that
she accepted war with America rather
than abandon her ruthless campaign
at sea. "Ihe Evening Star" says;
"For the next five months the
French and British people will be
forced to snffer and endure. The Ger
mans will show them no mercy. They
will use every weapon possible in order
20 COW and terrorize the two nations.
The attack delivered by the German
submarines against the American ships
of the coast OF New Jersey is but an
evidence OF German ruthlessness and
resolution. 1t il designed to terrorize
America. The Germans have made an
other mistake. 1t will not terrorize
America; it will arouse America to
greater efforts The submarine raid
viii not retard the Aow of American
troops. 1t Will hasten it"
America Will Avenge Her Dead
"The Evening News" in commenting
on the situation says:
"The Huns very obligingly brought
the war to Americas very doorstep
and our gallant allies are looking on
at the results with teeth set harder.
lHey are saying. Hese Aiui PSNPiS
have got to be killed If you kick the
Hun hard enough he probably will
apologize for having got in your way.
1t is great mistake on his part to
imagine the British and Americans to
be similarly constituted, and the sink
ing of passenger ships or small trad
ing vessels is from his own viewpoint
about the worst card he could play.
We who know America know that she
will avenge her dead"
"The Pail Mall Gazette" says:
"Americas whole power in waging
this war is conditioned by her ability
to keep the sea passages cleared for
her forces and gain the upper hand
over the submarine peril. The appear
ance of these boats of the Atlantic
coast shows us that this phase of the
war is still in course of development
and that its outcome is as yet an un~
settled question.
Cannot Become Complacent
Neither in the matter of repression
nor replacement have we any warrant
for taking things complacently. Our
returns in British shipbulindg for the
ing upward tendency, but they are still
markedly short Of the real necessities
of our present position. At the present
moment the aggregate British and
American new constructions are only
slightly above the level of current
losses. That is q quite inadequate mar
gin and we must not be content with
the project until the margin is subtan-
TALLY increased by the exertions of our
ally.
eve must see to 1t not only that
British losses are replaced from Brit
ish yards, but that our buildings make
good the devastations of the past so
that we shall be furnished with an ade-
Quate mercantile marine for times of
peace"

Further Revelations
OF Irish : German
Plotting Expected

WASHINGTON, June 7.-Disclosure
of evidence of plots between German
agents and Irish agitators in the Unit
ed States to promote rebellion in Ire
land is expected by the Department of
Justice in connection with the indict-
ment in New York to-day of jeremiah
OLeary, fugitive Irish leader, and six
other persons.
Officials are reticent in regard to
the specific charges against those in
dicted, but they intimated to-day that
sensational facts concerning the rela-
tions between German and Irish lead
ers would develop from the trial.
O'Leary, it is said, knew of the
charges which the government was pre-
pared to make against him, and fed
/ soon before he was called for trial re-
Gently for publishing dsloyal matter
in his magazine, Bull" There were
| strong chances, officials say, that the
trial would have developed much more
serious activities of O'Leary than that
of publishing undesirable articles, par
tcularly in view of his past connec-
tlons with German propagandists in
the United States.
by British authorities of number of
Sim Fein agitators in Ireland, it was
revealed by officials of the United
States government that much evidence
leading to the arrests had been gath
cred in this country and forwarded to
London. Some definite action against
Irish agitators and suspected German
agents in New York and other cities
also was promised at that time.
that the indictments in New York might
be followed by others both there and
elsewhere in the United States.
Copies of "The Gaelic American" a
publication edited by John Dewey, an
Irish leader in the United States. con-
tanning an article attacking the Post
office Department and the Department
of Justice and the British government
in connection with their activity
against Irish propaganda, were exam
ined to-day by officials, but no COM
ment was made.

lRu The Aasocinted Prcssl

LONDON, June 7. -- The manner in
which the American nation received the
latest exhibition of German submarine
frightfulness represents another defeat
for Germany, saye Archibald S. Huri,
in a further statement on the U-hoat
operations off the Atlantic coast Of tho
United States.
Mr.. Hurd, Who is we'll known as a
writer on naval subjects, characterizes
as absurd the notion that the Germans
can carry out sii raids on American
towns from submarines.
"This side of the Atlantic" the state
ment says, "has heard Of the attitude
Of the American people toward the sub
marine raid and has accepted it AS far
ther evidence of their sanity and the
correct appreciation they have formeo
of the strategic necessities which the
war imposes upon them. That repre-
scnts another defeer for the Germans
"They had calculated upon weaken
ing the hands of the executive depars-
ments, and particularly the departments
directly concerned with the lsvy an
army. In that respect tho raid failed
What Germans Really Have Done
"What the Germans really have done
by the exhibition of frightfulness of
American shores is to bring the entire
American continent definitely withir
the war area. That is great achieve
ment, the penalty of which the enemy
will suffer in due course. He viii
obtain little temporary compensation
because he cannot, owing to the differ
ences involved, make an even limited
blockade of the American coast.
"Of course, the suggestion that air
planes operating from submarines cal
bomb American cities is an absurdity
A bombing airplane is not weapon t.
be carried in a submersible over 5000
miles. Even if the difficulty of stowin,
could be overcome, how would the ar
plane return to its base, even If 1t /
were not shot down while over Amer
lean territory?

America to Guard
Against U-Boat as
Permanent Menace
Offensive and Defensive
Warfare on Submarines
Already Planned

WASHINGTON, June THE posi-
bility that German submarines are
lurking off the Atlantic Coast here
after must be regarded as a continu-
ing factor in American war measures
in the opinion of many naval officials
They believe that the present raid /.
practically certain to be followed by
others, and that it will never be safe
again to assume that American waters
are free of this menace as long AZ
the U-boats are at large.
Besides vigilant guard at home, un-
renting efforts against the sub
marines at the points Of egress is the
antidote favored here. A carefully
planned campaign. having both often
sive and defensive phases, is known
to have been approved long ago and
probably now is we'll under way.
An indication Of the deadly work Of
the Allied and American fleets in Eu.
ropean waters was given to-day when
Senator Swanson, OF Virginia, stated
the Naval Affairs Committee 60 per
cent OF the submarines constructed By
Germany have been destroyed. This
percentage includes not only new con-
struction, but the boats comprising the
numerous fleet in commission at the
beginning of the war.
Monthly totals of tonnage destroyed
by U-boats continue to decrease. While
some authorities are of the opinion
that this is due to 10 small extent to
better systems Of convoy and other
protective steps. others believe the
! diminishing number Of submersibles in
active tho haric fortnr
Secretary Daniels said the percentage
| quoted by Senator Swanson Represented
the best opinion of our naval officers =
"Of course" he added, "the actual
number of submarines put out Of &C.
tion will not be made public"
The coast patrol forces to-day still
were searching vigorously for the raid
crs operating off the Atlantic coast.
Precautions will be steadily increased,
and no relaxation of vigilance will fol-
low even when it develops that the
U-boats now on this side have headed
for home.
There are many puzzling things
about the raid. The reluctance of ths
raiders to expose themselves to an,
possibility of attack was again demon
strated when the British steamer Har
pathian was sent down by a torpedo
off the Virginia Capes before the sub
marine showed herself. Apparently
the German got close enough to deter
mine that he had an armed craft Il
deal with, then took no chances, bu
used one of his carefully conserved tor
pedoes
Some officers think the raid wa
planned to obtain information as vel
as to sink craft in American waters
and that the commanders have orders
to bring home their report withou
risking their vessels. Such informa
tion as they may have been able T,
gather, it was argued, would be o
value if it was planned to send SINH
lar craft out from time to time t.
harry the American coast line, Away
with the possibility that laden trans
port or two could be bagged.

Air Raids From U-Boats
OnU.S. Ridiculed by Hurd

back with satisfaction on their correct
strategical view Of over year ago
which they promptly translated into
acts Their decision to send warships
to Europe represented great avowal
cf faith in permanent strategic prin-
ciple.
Value Of Unity of Command
Moreover, by placing these vessels
under British admirals unity of com
mand was achieved, and unity Of COM
mand is more important on the sea
than on the land, because naval warfare
is more technical and swiftsr in its
manifestations than land warfare.
"Unty of command thus IS main
tained in the North Sea where the
Grand Fleet is supported by some Of
the finest American warships and offers
its daily challenge to the enemy. 1t is
also preserved in combat against the
submarine.
"When the history of the war comes
to be written. tribute will pc paid b.
Englishmen, as well as by others, to
the fine appreciation by Americans OF
the only sound principle upon which
the United States could effectively co.
operate in overcoming the enemy, and
in particular, in defeating piracy. That
principle of unity Of command aioat
muSL DC pIeSSINcu ana uc |SioPcu. i ia
is the moral OF the raid on tn, Amer
lean coast since effective defence must
be offered on this side of the Atlantic
unfortunately, unity of command is
not yet fully attained in the Mediter
ranean. 1t is probable the submarines
operating off the American coast sailed
from a German North Sea port. Or
the other hand, there is no reason
why they should not issue from The
Mediterranean
Difficulties in Mediterranean
Mr.. Hurd proceeded to comment or
the fact that FIVE navies we're working
in Mediterranean waters, without count
ing the Greek and Brazilian, which alss
is coming. But, while the British I'D
miral is responsible for anfi-su omar!n'
operations, unity of command only ha
been achieved ''to a certain extent.
The question of naval control in Th'
Mediterranean, he added, mus, 5ecom
one of great interest to the American
people.
Sir Eric Geddes, First Lori of tn
Admiralty, Mr.. Hurd concluded, IA
admitted that 80 per cent of the ton
mage losses are suffered in the 4hediter
ranean. That is very high utoportio
and suggests, Mr.. Hurd holds, ma
measures now being taken to suppress
piracy still leave something to b
! desired
