Ostend Harbor Partly If Not Com
pletely Blocked-Great Mine
Field in North Sea.

German submarine operations from
the harbor of Ostend, Belgium, have
been seriously hampered for a time
and if not rendered impossible by
daring air raid made on the harbor by
the British Friday morning. On Off
cial statement issued by the British
admiralty says the channel leading ont
OF the inner harbor has been COM
pletely blocked by the hulk of the old
cruiser Vindictive, which was maneuv-
cred into position under heavy fire and
then sunk by bombs. 1t appears how
ever, that there is some doubt that the
entire channel is blocked, one report
saying that the vessel lies at an angle
and does not absolutely interrupt the
use of the fairway.
If Ostend and Zeebrugge, upor
which serious damage was done in 6
raid on April %, are removed as
ports from which the German u-boats
may be operated the Germans appar
entity will be compelled to Withdraw
their submersibles to their home ports
In this connection it is interesting t,
note that week ago it was announc
ed that the greatest mine field know
to naval operations had been plante'
IN the North Sea to combat the sub
marines. 1t was officially state'
that the area of this mine field woul
De III ,782 square miles and that
would be completed by May Is. Som
months ago Admiral Jellico Of tn
British navy announced that the sut
marine menace, would be met by Al

Hoe as Freedom,s Weapon.

"We, the people of the United
States, IN gardens assembled might
we'll be the beginning of a new pre-
amble of American liberty, stating that
the people had decided to fight for
freedom with hoes, proclaiming to the
world the declaration that the welfare,
prosperity and happiness of this ma
ton are to be maintained; that the
freedom OF other peoples is to be guar
anteed against oppression writes
Charles Lathrop Pack, president O. the
national war garden commission, in
the Peoples Home Journal.
This preamble could state that it
had been decided by 'an American
people armed with hoes that they
would help to raise enough food to win
the war. Every man in the army
would be doing his duty in the trenches
of his own back yard or a nearby va
cant lot The work in these trenches
is just as important as that in the
front battle lines of Europe. It will
constitute as vital factor in the final
