was known of every submarine operat-
ing in the water about the British
Isles. But knowing where subma-
rine might be and sinking it were two
different operations. On the wide eX-
panse of water the submarine might
change its plans or act against direct
orders.
All this added to the excitement of
the chase as the destroyers ploughed
through the sea toward the cross
mark. The flotilla would go plunging
and rolling along until it sighted the
ships it was to convoy. The meet
ing place reached, the crews of the de-
stroyers would answer the shouts and
cheers of those aboard the convoy and
then would turn smartly to the task
at hand, that of protecting the larger
vessels from the Iurkers within the
circles on the maps.
The crews of the American destroy
ers operated from Queenstown
throughout the entire zone which had
witnessed most~of the U-boat crimes
against unacmed passenger and mer-
chant vessels. They knew how deadly
the submarines were. All this was an
incentive to hard work and the de-

NEW YORK, Dec Establishment
OF permanent wage rates for the q,
10000 railway workers of the United
States, to continue after the cost of
( living has decreased, is the aim of
. the United States railroad administra-
/ ton, according to W. S. Carter, direct
or of the division of labor, who spoke
here today on The Effect of Federal
/, Control on Railway Labor" before the
Academy of Political Science.
Mr.. Carter, in his address, in which
he outlined what Director General
McAdoo had accomplished for rail
way workers during the last eleven
months of federal control, and in max
ing note of the fact that under the
, existing congressional act the lines
will pass back to private control on
! Or before Fl months after the declara-
ton of peace, expressed the hope
that the rights and aspirations of
la Dor in the operation of the railroads
will receive due consideration if. con-
gress decides to enact additional leg
lslation affecting them"
The government, said Mr. Carter
took over the railroads with major
ity of employees educated by exper-
fence to believe in the theory of the
strike and it has taken time and pat
fence to convince them that under
Z federal control justice will prevail.
without strike or threats of strike"
Standardization of wages and work
ing conditions of railway employees,
Mr.. Carter believed, would prove to
be the most pronounced effect of fed
eral control.
While the complete ha rmonization
OF labor has not yet been achieved by
the United States railroad adminstra-
ton, Mr.. Carter said. 1.-The director
general has ordered the board of rail
road wages and working conditions to
make futher Investigations so that all
may know they will have a square
deal"
In conclusion the speaker referred
TO the recognition of the eight-hour
day by Mr.. McAdoo and said it mark
ed great advance in multiplying dis
content and unrest.

QUEENSTOWN, Dec. o When
American destroyers during the last
IS months of the war steamed out of
Queenstown to convoy merchant ships
and transports through the submarine
infested area of the North Atlantic,
they went with accurate information
of the whereabouts of the enemy u
boats as supplied by the British admi-
rally.
AS a destroyer hotilla moved out to
sea the commodore would be bending
over his maps with his navigators.
On the maps were little rings. some
times many and sometimes only few,
each denoting where German sub
marine was known to be. The maps
also had a cross mark showing where
the flotilla was to meet the convoy.

Jarrett was born in Herndon, Va.
and lived in Washington seven years.
He enlisted in the navy in May. 1911,
and trained at Newport. He was as
