SEVEN new BUREAUS TO
HANDLE LABOR PROBLEMS
(Bv Associated Preaa.n

Washington, March 15.-Plans by
which the seven newly organized
bureaus Of the department OF labor
are expected to handle all labor
problems affecting the war program
were outlined by Secretary Wilson
today. Each bureau will cooperate
directly with the war and navy de-
paTtments and the shipping board
and all difnculties arising in these
departments will be referred to one
OF the seven bureaus.
Charts on the progress of all con-
struction work will be kept by the
army, navy and shipping boards and
any delay due to labor difficuIties
will be shown in reports to the la
Dor department to be referred to the
proper bureau.
The labor department expects with
this system to reduce to a minimum
all delays in the war program for
which labor might be held respon-
Sible. Secretary Wilson has asked
congress for an appropriation Of
a4s6, 900 to cover the expense of the
reorganization in addition to the
$50, 100000 housing appropriation.

Neither Guns Nor efensiUe
Planes Can AlCDdys Stop An
Air Raid by. Fast Machine

Correspondence Of The Associated
Preas.)
London, Febs 2s.-"Both the Ger
mans and ourselves have to admit
that neither guns nor defensive
planes can always stop a raider who
knows his business and is equipped
with a first class machine gun"
writes an aeronautical expert COM
menting in The Evening Standard on
the recent air raids on London.

Flanders is crossed and recrossed

No More BIC Fleets.
But there is a tren. endous change
in the conditions governing the raids
as compared with those existing less
than a year ago. OF the many air
planes which may now approach
London very few indeed get through.
The massed feet raid has given away
to attacks by single machines or very
small groups. Never again are we
likely to have the humiliating
spectacle Of a big formation of enemy
moving with impunity
above our capital.
I'm this respect we have reduced
the danger very considerably, for

make light of this development, all

and each endeavoring to send one or
more machines over London.
'"The single or small group Of raid
ers Is the most elusive, and no agency
yet put into practise has been able to
stop this form OF attack. The heaviest
barrage is jumped over by a daring
pilot, and, so immense is the sky
space and so defective is visibility at
night that great fleets Of pursuers
often fail to bring him down.
But our airplanes are growing
more skillful in breaking up the
fleets, and with further experience,
aided by more liberal use OF very
fast n;achines. we should be able to
give every solo raider q terrific chase
from the coast to London and back
again. For this chasing we require
the best brain work. coupled with a
lavish supply Of the best machines.
Until this system is4carried to per-
fection we must continue our gum
merry barTage.
''The object of this fire is not so
much to hit the raider as to drive
him very high as thereby we force
him to come rather lightly loaded
with bombs and In addition his ac-
curacy OF aim is diminished"

the semi-ofiiciaI North German
Gazette and other organs of the
German press is obviously intended
to frtghten the northern neutrals
from completing agreements which
benefit the neutrals quite as much as
the United States and it's associates.
Now success of the earnest ef-

by the action OF German submarines

ing OF the Sardinero, carrying nearly
1000 tons of cereals for Switzerland,
can by no stretch of the Imagination
be brought within the scope Of
Germany's proclaimed submarine
policy, since the vessel was engaged
not in an enemy, but in a supposedly
safe trade for a neutral state, was
en- route to a port to which Germany
had explicitly promised to leave open

SCHEELE MUST FACE TRIAL

York in 1915 for placing bombs on
allied ships in New York harbor, was
deportsd from Cuba yesterday in
custody Of American detectives. Mr..
Scheele is said to have come to Cuba

refuge on board one Of the German

tions OF the captains Of torpedoed
ships before the marine courts in
these countries bear out this belief,
the testimony repeatedly showing
that vessels were attacked far out
side the zone.
The intent Of the Germans to
prevent neutFals receiving food and
supplies under relief agreements
concluded with the United States is
illustrated by the German veto
placed upon the temporary modus
vivendi with Holland, providing for
the provisioning of that country.
Two food ships loaded with supplies
for The Netherlands along with
eleven Belgian relief ships have been
waiting in American ports for weeks,
unable to sail because of the refusal
OF Germany to permit an equivalent
amount OF tonnage leaving Dutch
harbOrs, the obvious plan Of the
German authorities being to gather
all Dutch ships into home harbors
and then prevent any of them sailing
by threats to torpedo any vessel
leaving Holland waters. To relieve
the food situation in Holland, the
war trade board has finally author
lied the ans-shipment Of the food
in question from the two Dutch
steamers to the Holland liner
Amsterdam, which is sailing
shortly. ..
