PROGRESS OF THE WAR
Continued from page one }

AOOhNAnoC0 -
At Ostend the failure was due to q
change in the wind. which dissipated
the British smoke screen and revealed
their block ships to the enemy shore
batteries. The ships were riddled
before they could get into the harbor
channel and were abandoned in a
sinking condition.
At Zeebrugge there were a num-
Der of co-ordinated operations. 1t
was necessary first of all to spread a
gigantic smoke screen to hide the
approach of the ships in moonlight.
The screen worked very well at the
beginning. the wind being just right.
The misty smoke rolled in toward the
shore and the ships followed.
Three block ships were to u into
the harbor while an attack on the
Zeebrugge mole. or sea-wall. diverted
the enemy attention. The old cruis-
er Vindictive, specially prepared. ran
alongside the wall and landed men
with machine guns and grenades.
The smoke r had disclosed the
vessel and its two escorting vessels
to the gunners and before a land
ing could be made there were many
casualties. The men, who were all
volunteers. got upon the wall and
charged the enemy. AT 200 yards
from the end they ran into opposition
and there was an hours battle. The
landing party tried to get as far as
some of the batteries and destroy
them. The official resume of the
operations has not yet been issued
and it is uncertain whether the men
reached the big guns. but survivors
told the newspaper correspondents
that a number of the guns were
rendered useless.
Meantime a submarine carrying
explosives was run against a wooden
portion of the sea-wall the piling of
which connected the stone mole with
the shore. The submarine was blown
up and with it the bridge and many
German marines.
One of the block ships stranded be-
fore it got far into the harbor, but
two were sunk across the channel.
1t is believed they will block the chan
mel for several weeks.
The losses on both side were very
heavy and both sides lost ships. One
British and at least one German de-
stroyer were sunk. Several other
German vessels YER put out of ac-
ton by ramming or torpedoes.

N CITY and country more wal gardens are needed this year
than ever before. Patriotism prompted 100000 Americans
to plant gardens last year, according to estimates Of the
United States Department of Agriculture. Transportation
facilities of the nation will be strained this year hauling NUM-
lions of war and foods for the Allies. The surplus food ere
ated by home gardens will help in the railroad problem. And
~. the nation will eat less of the goods we must export-wheat
- meat, fats and sugar. Every boy and girl that helps with the
garden is helping win the war. Leaflets of instruction In

Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage in ships that
is putting the Allies and the
United States on wheat rations.
Great stocks of wheat are iso-
lated in India, and Australia. At
great sacrifice In ship space and
use the Allies are forced to Sc
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January l, Australia had
stored 1OO.OOO,OO0 bushels Of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an exportable surplus of 80,O00,-
600 bushels. Now Australia has
approximately 1SO.OOO.0O0 BUSH
els waiting for ships.
India, at the same time, had
70,O00,OO0 bushels Of wheat
stored for export. During April
81 100000 bushels more out of
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 100000
bushels OF wheat left in the
stock available for export. The
new crop will add 1S5.OO0.0O0 to
the left over.
It Is not q problem that the
wheat does not exist In the
world-it Is entirely a problem
of shipping. which has thrown on
America the obligation of divid-
ing our stock with the Allies.

A DAZZLING EXPLOIT

However titanic the land battles of
the present wal may be, they fail to
fire the imagination as do naval *
ploits of much less magnitude. Mil
lions have been slain on land and
only thousands upon the seas since
the Hun went mad in the Summer
of 1914, but for romantic interest
the fights of the men who go down
to the sea in ships have eclipsed the
fights of the landsmen as a star-shell
eclipses a freely.
Hobson's exploit at Santiago and
Dewey's battle in Manila bay, which
did not cost the life of a single Ameri-
can. were more absorbing to the inn
agination than any of the land bat
ties in Cuba or the Philippines. And
to-day the exploit of the British ma
val forces which raided the U-boat
base at Zeebrugge appeal to man.
kinds love of wonderful adventure
more than do the battles in Flanders
and Picardy. The charge of the
handful of marines who landed on
the great breakwater and pier at
Z~eebrugge is more exciting than the
hand to-hand encounters of the in
fantrymen on. land, although the
casualties in the two classes of fight
ing cannot be compared.
Wholly aside from what it achieved.
the raid will go down into history as
a dazzling example of heroism. All
of the British seamen and marines
who participated were volunteers.
All of them we're aware that their
chances of escape were slight. Es-
pecially those who were assigned to
the Anticipated submarines which
were to enter the harbor and blow
up the pilings which connect the
masonry of the mole with the shore,
knew that they were going to almost
certain death.
The battle on the mole seems to
have met with unanticipated success.
In an old hulk of awarsh.p the picked
volunteers made their way through
a hurricane of exploding shells. and
were within the harbor works at the
mole before the defenders knew that
they were the objects of the strange
attack. The landing party blew up
the batteries, and. with the aid of
flame-throwers, exploded stores of
ammunition. Before they landed,
their old ship paid for its many years
of uselessness by ramming and sink
ing a destroyer. After they landed
they discovered other ~destroyers and
boarded them. knocking on the head
those who resisted. and evidently do
ing some damage to the ships. In a
bayonet fight they killed or wounded
a large number of the garrison. and
then, while establishment and disor-
ganization made the enemy impotent.
they re-embarked on the warship
and sailed out once more into the
storm Of shells. In spite of many
hits above the water line the warship
weathered the tempest of shell and
made its way behind the protecting
line of destroyers and cruisers.
Meantime. destroyers had entered
the harbor and torpedoed whatever
il seemed necessary to wreck. Three

Of Joint Dealing
Strikes and Lockouts Barred
by Committee Headed by
Taft and Walsh

WASHINGTON, March 21.-A
definite basis of agreement upon
the principles of a new national
policy for capital and labor during
the war has been reached by the
labor planning commission at the
end Of its three-day session here.
Former President Taft and
Frank P. Walsh are a. the head of
the joint commission, as repre-
sentatives of capital and labor, re-
spectively.
Outstanding features of the
agreement are a declaration against
strikes and lockouts, against ex-
cessive profits by capital and un-
reasonable demands for wages by
labor.
There will be. an agreement upon
thorough and comprehensive arbi-
tration of any difficulty between,
the elements whose corporation is
essential to the war program.
The principle of collective bar
gaining will be established and it's
recognition made compulsory upon
private employers, as we'll as upon
the government and all govern
ment agencies.
The agreement also will specify
complete acceptance of all stand
ard laws for the protection and
safety of labor in every form of
industry. Equal pay for equal pro-
duction regardless of sex and the
extension of protection to unorgan-
lied women drafted into industry
by the exigencies of war also will
be guaranteed
Provision also will be made that
in the settlement of all grievances
both employers and workers shall
be permitted to select their own
representatives without interfer-

MANIFESTO CALLS
UPON SOCIALISTS
TO SUPPORT WAR
Bohemian Branch Repudiates
the St. Louis Platform
Of the Party.

CHICAGO, March 21-Repudiatio
of the anti-American and anti-war
stand Of the Socialist party continues.
The Bohemian Federation, one of the
largest of the various foreign speak
ing federations within the Socialist
party, has issued manifesto calling
upon the whole Socialist party to de-
clare itself in support of the war
against German autocracy.
The Bohemian federation is backed
b. the daily Spravedlnost, rival in
size and strength to. the Jewish For
ward of New York, and the revolt of
the Bohemians against the Socialist
party stand is for that reason of more
significance than would be revolt on
the part of any other foreign language
section of the party, with the excep-
ton Of the Jewish membership, which,
however, is not organized as a separate
fedora ton.
This vigorous open revolt of the
Bohemian federation follows the re-
volt of hundreds Of Socialist party
members aeing as Individuals Re-
platform has been sweeping through
sion of Russia.
Language of Manifesto.
THE Bohemian pro1etariat learned,
as no one else in the whole world,
the character of the German mill
tarisnl, the nature of the German
'HaVe not millions of our people
been suffering for centuries. under this
frightful regime? Hence; from the be-
ginning of the Russian revolution we
feared for it's success. It becomes a
terrible reality just now, when the
Russian revolution is at the mercy of
the military castles of Germany and
when-even though a peace is SEEM
ingly concluded-this revolution and
with it the democracy of the world is
threatened with the grave danger of
total defeat. While the impotent
inertia of the German social democ-
racy lasts the German imperialistic
government will not stop until it will
have re-established in Russia the old
szarist reactionary regime.
'We have been noting for some
time that the stand of the St. Louis
convention is being slowly but per-
manently abandoned by the most in
fluential men of our party. 1t will be
an honorable act Of courage if the
Socialist party of America will declare
it's new standpoint openly in the in
terests of the democratic world in
general.
1--WE demand with the full weight
Of our Socialist vote that the Social
ist party Of America declare in favor
of war against the central powers;
that it offer this republic all its loyal
assistance and support against the
outer and inner enemy everywhere,
wheres the social and democratic in
terests of this country suffer in any
