Wounded Are Only Anxious to Get
Back Where the Battle
Is Raging.
ONLY CONTEMPT FOR ENEMY
Say When They Get Into Actual Fight.
Ing Contact With Foe There
Is No Fight Left
in Him.

London.--A naval attache who saw
about 90 American marines in hospital
suffering from wounds or gassing in
the recent German offensive found
every one of them full of cheer regard
Ing the future; every one anxious to
get well and be back In the fighting
line. And every one of them held a
poor opinion Of Fritz as a fighting man.
They were unanimous, the attache de-
elared, In stating that the Germans
were long distance fighters only. AS one
of them said:
"They are not so bad when they are
80 yards away with machine gun, but
at close quarters the German soldiers
are no good"
Marine after marine asserted that
when he and his comrades got into ac-
tnal fighting contact with the enemy
there was no fight left In him. Then
the Germans would throw down their
guns, and, waving their hands over
their heads, cry out "KameradT
Feel Contempt for Huns.
Our men," added the attache, "gave
me the impression of looking with ut
ter contempt upon the German soldiers,
who can fight only when they feel that
they have the protection of artillery
and gas, and surrender when 1t comes
to hind to hand fighting.
Far from feeling the slightest dread
of the enemy, every man expressed
eagerness TO get out of hospital and
return to the front. Every one Of them
wanted chance of getting even with
the Germans for having been gassed
or wounded.
The men were justly proud of the
record that the marines had made, and
their morale appeared to be of the
very, highest quality. The cheerful
ness of all, including some infantry in
the wards, may be summarized by the
remark Of one recovering from gas:
Why he said, there's nothing In II.

Half of Torpedoed Craft of Great
Britain Have Been
Salvaged.
METHODS GREATLY IMPROVED
Much Greater Weights Than Believed
Possible Are Now Being Lifted
Mo Hope of Ever Raising
Lusltania.

London.-Of 400 British ships sunk
in the last two and half years at
least 30 per cent have been raised
from the bottom of the sea. The or
ganization responsible-the Admiralty
Salvage departments composed en-
tirely of experts employed by COM
merclal firm which engaged in the busi-
ness before the war. Ships were so
cheap then, however, that often 1t did
not pay to raise sunken wreck and
restore her to seagoing condition.
Things are very different now, and
the result is that invention has been
stimulated to an extraordinary extent.
1t used to be considered that 1900
tons was the greatest weight that
could be lifted from under water by
wire ropes. A sunken government col.
ller that was obstructing fairway
was lifted out Of the mud recently and
carried away by four lifting ships, with
sixteen 9Inch wire ropes, and the
lightweight carried was calculated at
1850 tons. The wreck was shifted
one mile at the first lift, and so was
gradually taken to the beach, patched
up and sent off to the repairing yard.
She went back into service and made
several voyages before a torpedo end
ed her career altogether.
Cannot Raise Lusltanla.
Ships sunk in deep water cannot be
snlved. 1t is not expected that the
Lusitania, for example Will ever be
lifted. Divers cannot work In more
than 25 fathoms successfully, though
for special purposes they may some
times go down to 35 fathoms for
brief spell of work.
The bulk Of the ships saved have
been sunk In less than 20 fathoms, or
have been towed inshore by rescue
tugs, and have gone aground in fairly
easy positions.
The salvage men face considerable
risks, not only from bad weather but
also from submarine attack. Only one
