with Surgeon General Blues request
and also as part OF general nursing
survey OF the country requested by
Surgeon General Gorgas of the Army,
Is endeavoring to secure complete in
formation in regard to the training
and experience Of all the nurses in
the county.
The survey included not only gradu-
ate nurses, but nurses who for any
reason have not finished their train
ing, pupil nurses, practical nurses and
women who have taken any or all of
the Red Cross courses in First Aid,
Home Care of the Sick, etc.
The Chapter has secured as COM
plete lists as possible of these various
groups and blanks on which to enter
the necessary information will be sent
to them as rapidly as possible. The
chapter is very anxious, however, to
have the data as complete as possible
and on account of the urgency of the
need for listing all available nurses,
any who have not received blank
forms may stop at the Red Cross
headquarters and fill them out or II
they will telephone their names and
addresses to the headquarters, the
blanks will be mailed to them.
The group of graduate and pupil
nurses has been practically finished,
but there is considerable difficulty in
getting in touch with all of the prac-
teal nurses in the county and the
chapter is particularly anxious to
have the necessary information in re-
gard to them.

Hurry Construction New
Anti-U-Boat Craft.

Washington, Feb. f.--Production
plans Tor the navy's new anti-sub-
marine craft contemplate the de-
livery of a finished boat every day
when the cycle of production is
complete. The first vessel has al
ready been started in the fabrieat-
ing shops at the Ford Motor COM
pany plant at Detroit.
Construction will go by stages.
To turn out q boat Il day after the
elapse Of several months requires
that a boat a day be started. Ma
tcrials that go into construction
are fed into one end of the plant
az rapidly as it is planned to pro-
duce the completed product at the
other. The whole number OF boats
contracted for will be under con-
struction simultaneously at one
stage.
The boats will all be fabricated
at the Ford plant. progressing by
stages until they are launched at
Detroit to be brought to the sea
via the canal system and inland
waterways. They will measure 200
feet and displace about 500 tons,
which insures easy passage to the
sea.
The number of boats ordered has
not been revealed. but only a sub
stantiaI order would justify the
preparations for production which
must be made.

Revocation of Monday Coal
Order Considered by Gar

Washington, J. ab. abandonment
of the heatless NJ ,nday program after
It's enforcement next Monday, was
predicted tonight at the close of a pro-
longed conference between Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield and Director
General McAdoo.
A final decision was not reached and
a further conference will be held
Tuesday, but there was every ndica-
tion that both officials, as well as
President Wilson, who has been con-
suited, feel that the purpose sought
can be accomplished from now on by
continuance of preferential coal trans
portation and distribution and by rail-
way embargoes now in force.
Opposition Vigorous.
The Monday closing has brought the
most vigorous opposition from CONNER
cial interests. particularly the big de-
partment stores. The small stores,
too, have opposed it. as have the own
ers of office buildings.

GERMANS DRIVEN
TO DESPERATION
Internal Unrest Forced Re,
sumption Submarine War
fare Year Ago.

Amsterdam. Feb. 1.-The Haroels-
blad today publishes a series Of docu-
nIents obtained secretly from German
archives, showing the steps which led
to the adoption by Germany OF her
unrestricted submarine campaign IL
year ago. The following is sum
mary OF the Documents:
At the close OF 1916 the German ad-
miralty prepared memorandum to
show that unrestricted u boat warfare
would compel Great Britain to sue for
peace within six months.
The memorandum first was submit
ted to Dr. Won Bethmann- HoIlwcg, the
imperial chancellor, and then to DIR.
Karl Helfferich, vice chancellor. The
latter rejected it on the ground that it
was impossible TO set a limit on Eng
lands staying power and also because
he feared the action which would re-
suit from neutraIs, especially the
| United States.
Internal ~Affairs Critical. ...-
The authors Of the memorandum
then sent a reply in which they pointed
out the gravity Of the internal situA-
| ton in Germany and assured DR..
Helfferieh that a desperate remedy was
necessary. They reinforced their argu
ment as to the seriousness Of the in
! tarnal state of affairs by calling In
nine experts representing German fl
nance. commerce, mining and agricul-
! ture.
| AS experts these men were invited Ia
reply to three. questions:
| First. what would be the effect or
! England Of an unrestricted Submarine
war: second, what would be the effect
/ on Germany's relations with the United
! States and other neutra1s, and third
to what extent did the Internal situa-
tion of Germany demand the use ol
this drastic weapon?
| Demanded Drastic Remedy.
All the experts agreed on the frs
point that England would have to su.
\ for peace In six months at most.
On tho second question. although tbs
experts differed a. to the prospect O
war with the United States, none o
them advised against the U-boat wal
on that account.
On the third question all the experts
agreed that the internal situation de
manded drastic remedy. Herr Zuck
scha said: '"The most drastic measures
are advisa BILE owing To the feeling o
the nation. The nation will stand b,
the government. but not IL II yields q
threats from America. Such weakness
would tend 10 serious consequences.
