Shipping Warned Safety
Depends on Adherence to
Strict Regulations
Danger Field Covers
$4,000 Square Miles
With Zeebrugge and Ost-
end Bottled, U-Boats Be-
lieved Effectively Curbed

LONDON. May 10. The British Ad-
miralty restrictions on navigation in
the northern part Of the North Sea, in
consequence of the laying of a great
mine field for the purpose of foiling
submarines. became operative to-day,
and hereafter all shipping IN that area
must comply with stringent regulations
or ignore them at their own peril.
After dark no ship viii be permitted
within the prescribed area, which lies
between the coasts Of Norway and Scot
land. and any vessel finding itself there
half an hour after sunset must anchor
N accordance with the Admiraltys di
tection. Tie regulations include strict
rules affecting all except warships en-
tering and leaving the ports of north
eastern Scotland as well as the Orkney
and Shetland Islands.
The vast barrier. which seems to
nave been overestimated in extent in
earlier reports, is now said to cover
approximately % 600 square miles.
Many details obviously cannot be di
vulged, and some of those printed ap-
pear to be based ON assumptions by
non official experts but 1T is generally
accepted that the barrier is designed
TO fence in. as far as possible, U-boats
and other enemy craft in the northern
end of the North Sea in the same
manner the barrier across the
Straits of Dover already effectively
blocks their access TO the Channel. 1t
is remarked that if the barrier is to
exclude submarines the mines must
have been laid at an unusual depth to
cover the limit of the average sub
marines diving capacity.
The forbidden area necessarily leaves
gap on each side-on the east be-
cause the territorial waters of Nor
way must be respected, and on the
west to preserve passage for ship
ping and to allow freedom Of action
for the Grand Fleet
But Notwithstanding such limitations
confidence is expressed that the new
measure. combined with the recent
operations at Zeebrugge and Ostend
must greatly handicap the movements of
the U-boats and further discourage the
hopes that Germans have placed in the
submarine campaign

Bitter Newspaper
War Grows Out of
Maurice Affair
London "Post" and Colonel
Repington Attacked in
New Offensive
By Arthur S. Draper

Special Cable to The Tribune)
LONDON, May Is. - An interesting
situation is developing in which "The
Morning Post" is the central figure. j.
J. Garvin's attack on that newspaper
and its military critic, Lieutenant
Colonel Repington, in Sundays issue of
The Observer" of which Waldorf
Aistor is the proprietor. seems to have
necn the opening shot in a lively
sSirmish. "The Morning Post" evident
~ intends to stick to its guns and
fight until it wins or falls victim
70 the censor.
The affair is of more than ordinary
interest because "The Morning Post"
represents small. though powerful
group. understand that Colonel Rep
lngton is now in disfavor with the gov
efnment. Garvin's attack rallied con-
SIDERABLE support for "The Post" in
ci4ding several Liberal organs.
Ihis sentence from "The Post" "Ir
may not be untimely TO remind the
pubic that we nave fought throughout
tne war for certain principles, chief Of
mem being expert direct military direc-
on-that rs TO say, free hand for
me soldier and sailor" furnishes "The
hvening Standard" with a topic for
iaong editorial upholding the politician.
ne editorial says the only alternative
20 supreme civilian control is a mill
'Trv dictatorship, dominating every
department of the national life"
Behind this controversy stand two
warring political factions, both of
winch are anxious to see the victorious
ending of the war, but differing widely
In their means of attaining it.
Unfortunately the Parliamentary de-
bate ending in Lloyd Georges victory
didn't settle the question II merely
postponed it,
That the ministerial press is not
satisfied with Lloyd Georges victory is
proved by its constant recurrence to
The Maurice incident. Although As
quith proved heavy liability for Gen
.eral Maurice. the ministerial papers
are not at all sure he IL politically
dead. as they have called him. In fact,
they treat him much as a small boy
does frecracker which sizzles and
then dies, ominously quiet.
return to this subject because
political developments affect the course
Of the war almost as much as the op-
erations on the battlefield. During the
adjournment of Parliament it is hoped
that some political compromise will be
reached.
New-York tribune., 1918-05-16
By Theodore NJ. knappen

WASHINGTON. May l5.-Friends O.
the concrete ship are much depressed
over the present outlook for the emer
gency construction of a large number
of the "stone" ships. When Presiden'
Wilson and Secretary McAdoo came ou'
strongly in favor of special appro
priatiou of s50,000,00O for such ship;
IN The middle of April they thought the
victory was won Bills for the appro
priation of S50,o00,000 were prompt!
introduced in both Senate and House
A month has passed and nothing has
been done In the meantime the reg
ular shipbuilding budget for next yeal
has been drawn up with an item ol
s35.O00,o0o for concrete ships. The
special bills carried $l5,0o0.000 to be
Immediately available and $35,0o0,0ON
authorized.
Concrete ship advocates now suspect
that the programme is TO combine the
special and regular appropriations, WITT
the result that the emergency feature
will be suppressed and that the devel-
opment of concrete construction VII
proceed in a slow, routine way, so that
no noteworthy volume OF concrete ton
mage will be turned out before late III
1919. They feel that in proceeding III
this wav one of the chief benefits OF
concrete construction is lost, VIZ, the
early contribution OF a large tonnage
from new and uncounted-on source
By the end OF 1919 the steel yards
probably will be turning out all the
ships required and the special oppor-
tunity for early benefit from concrete
construction will be past.
Hurley Blamed for Policy
In other words, they think promis-
ing prospect of prompt relief from the
shortage of ships is thus put aside
The great need of ships is now--in
1918. If the building of a large num-
Der Of concrete ships were now under
taken we would have perhaps 100000
tons of additional ships this year So
far as the war emergency is concerned
it is argued that the Shipping Board
might better ignore concrete construc-
ton altogether than to proceed with
much deliberation.
The explanation advanced for this
policy, which viii result III the defeat
Of the object in view, is that Chairman
Hurley is at heart opposed to plunging
in concrete ships and thinks nothing
but failure and disappointment would
result from the immediate building of
a large feet. He was compelled to
yield to public opinion and the view
of the Presto dent. but did so with men
tai reservations, which reservations are
now finding expression in the delays
he bill is meeting.
If there is no special appropriation
and the authorization Of concrete ships
comes in the regular way there will
be no Congressional mandate for speed
and the Shipping Board will be able to
proceed as deliberately with the de-
velopment Of concrete construction as
it pleases.
Howcs's Report Recalled
Some one recently has made spe
cial effort to impress members Of Con
gress with the idea it is folly to plunge
IN the building of "stone" ships. Ir
February Benjamin A. Howes, a con
struction engineer of New York, made
a report, regarding the feasibility Of
concrete ships to DR.. Hollis Godfrey
Of the Advisory Commission of the
Council of National Defence.
On April 26 Chairman Fletcher oI
the Senate Commerce Committee asked

what the methods are by which those
who are responsible can be held to
their duty.
"Such activities on the part of
particular committee of the Senate
as this resolution would look forward
TO would constitute nothing less than
an attempt to take over the conduct
of the war, or at the least so super
intend and direct and participate in
the executive conduct of it as to in
terfere in the most serious way with
the action of the constituted Execu-
tive. protest most earnestly
against the adoption of any such ac-
tion and shall hope that every Sen
ator who intends to support the pres
ent Administration in the conduct of
the war will vote against it. These
are serious times, and it is absolute
ly necessary that the lines should be
clearly drawn between friends and
opponents"

tary Affairs. or any subcommittee there

WASHINGTON, May 15.-Expansion
of the wooden shipbuilding programme
by the authorization of approximately
200 more 4,700 ton wooden vessels was

day 1t will be the policy Of the Emer-
gency Fleet Corporation, Chairman
Hurley stated, Tor the present, to re-
place all wooden ship contracts as rap
idly as completed wooden vessels leave
