CAN'T CHASE SUBS
 TO GERMAN BASES

WASHINGTON: Why not go after the submarines at their bases? Why not raid Heligoland and Zeebrugge?
 These are questions thousands of people all over the world have asked.
 The submarine menace has not been ended. Day after day it's deadly work goes on.
 But raids on submarine bases are not feasible. This Is the sober and final verdict in official quarter.
 It must not be supposed" said a high official, that we have over looked that phase of the problem. Two separate reports have been made by the best men at the disposal of the war and navy departments. They have made investigation on the ground. and have closely studied ev- cry phase of the subjest. They have held exhaustive conferences with the British and French authorities.
 "The conclusion reached by every body is that it would be suicide, ab- solutely nothing short of suicide, to attempt to raid the submarine bases
 These bases are protected by in tricate and extensive mine fields, added to which are powerful and el- aborate shore batteries.
 Every navy man knows at what disadvantage any floating craft is in an attack on a harbor where the enemy's guns are fixed on cement emplacements with every range care fully calculated beforehand and plot ted on the charts, while the attacking party must fire a gun which rolls with the movement of the ship and neces- sarily cannot operate with the accur- acy or cover the long range which the land guns can.
 Besides which 1t must be remem- bered these land Notifications and mines are merely background for de- fensive craft, destroyers, cruisers and battleships, which make these harbors bases.
 We are using and shall use all means for controlling the submarine; surface destroyers, detectors, depth bombs, and conveys. And we are still working on other weapons with which to combat the menace.
 But any invading force would be merely cut to pieces and the men destroyed before they could begin to effect a landing. This Is the verdict of ell who have reported"

MAKING OVER THE WAR MAP

Rumania is the latest country .n eastern Europe to make a separate peace with the central powers. The signing of the preliminary peace pact in addition to emphasizing the plight in which Rumania has been placed, is another score for the kaiser on the eastern front. The effect of the devel- opment is that for all practical pur- poses Germany is no longer surround ed by a band of steel but faces the foe only in the west.
 Regardless of the moral certainty that so long as France, Great Britain and the United States continue the war, ultimate victory for the Hohen- zollerns is impossible; regardless of the fact that the collapse of the allied war machine in the East by reason of the treachery of the Bolsheviki does not materially alter the military pros poets of the entente, the historic sig nificance of recent events in Russia cannot be overlooked. When the kais- or congratulated von Hindenburg on the glorious conclusion" of the war on the eastern front he was guilty of less exaggeration than usual.
 But the kaiser's victory in the East has not been won so much by the sword as by insidius propaganda. No enduring glory attaches to his armed legions; rather it belongs to his army of secret agents, whose operations in

 Rumania naturally was the last country to submit. It had no alterna. tive. Surrounded by enemies and abandoned by the empire whose pro- tege 1t was, is must perforce make peace with the central powers or be utterly crushed. It has even been forced to give up Dobrudja to it's foes which in this case means Bulgaria and to permit Teutonic troops to cross it's frontier into Russia. Thus the Teutonic empires obtain control of the Danube and it's outlet and the preliminary terms as signed do not indicate that Rumania is to receive a pretense of compensation in being ceded Bessarabian territory--a set clement which was regarded as pos sibility by some students of the sit uation.
 Germany's grand scheme is to re- move absolutely the "Slav menace and in fact to dominate the Slav. The terms of the treaty with the Bolshe- wiki provide for the establishment of what will be a German dominated state in the Baltic provinces. To the north of that lies Finland, recognized as a separate republic. To the south will be Russian Poland as a separate entity. South of Poland is the Ukraine republic-a region larger than Ger many itself-with which a separate peace has been signed, and still fur ther south is unhappy little Rumania, proud but defeated.
 The whole eastern frontier of Ger many and Austria, then, Is brought under German domination, either by separate negotiation or with the bayo- net. Russia, the colossus of the East, once thought to be a menace to the world, is impotent and broken, with no signs at present of nationalism. Should the war stop today Germany would be absolute master of the sit nation in the East and it is not given anyone to know just what readjus'- ment will be made when peace com"
