 Uncle Sam.
 The Huns caved1 in, went sour, quit and blew up.
 The Teutonjc thoroughness with which they did it surprised everyone. Uncle SamSwas prepared to "carry on" for Iorg spell. War, no peace, was the business Of the hour.
 But his men wanted to come home and almost overnight he was confront ed with the problems of peace.
 Thousands had to be brought home. Thousands had to be looked after when they got home. Great overseas ter ritories are to be polieed and war con- tracts for supplies, useful for nothing else but war, must be settled.
 Instead of another Liberty loan, which would have been called by now, had the war continued, a Victory loan is required.
 Uncle Sam wants to borrow $4,5oo.- 0,0o0, in order that he may clean up and round out his part in the great war with credit and glory.
 In proportion to their wealth, the American people could lend Uncle San, $50 ,0o0.0o0,0o0 additional, without equaline the iiberaIity with which the British, French and Italian have Ioane d to their countries. We subscribed to the Liberty lean to keep our flag spotIess. and we will sub : scribe to the victorylosn for-the same treason.

CUB EXPLOSION
 MAY BE FATAL
 TO TWO SAILORS
Republican A. p. Leased wire1

SAN DIEGO, Cal, April 14.-In a gasoline explosion which sent a torch of flame 100 feet into the air, ten men were burned, two probably fatally, on the United States submarine chaser No. 279, at the municipal pier here to- day. All but one of the men were at tached to the craft. The tenth, o. l. Jamison, was driver of an oil truck, from which gasoline was being pumped into a 660 0gallon storage tank on the United States chaser. The list of in- jured with their home addresses follows:
 Ensign Allen T. Belknat, Niles. Mich igan; John Barron. Worcester, Massa- chusetts; F. J. Gaynor, Portland, Ore gon; G. l.. Young. San Francisco; T. J. Perrigo, Redmond, Washington; K. A. Seastrom. Seattle, Washington; J. Chadderdon, Acra. New York: E. w. Drake. Trident, Montana; ". w. Con over. San Francisco o. J Jamison, San Diego. Rear Admiral w r. FuIlam, commanding division two, Pacific fleet, was rushed on boat from hs flagship, the Minneapolis, to the pier, as soon as the report of the explosion was heard, and reached it before the injured were taken away He soon ordered an inves- tigation. It was reported, unofficially, today that the explosion had been caused by spark leaping from the rat tails,' or leads of the wireless anten- nae on the boat
 Two members of the crew who were standing near the intake pipe of the storage tank on the berth deck were blown through the hatchway and partly through the railing. Their clothes were burned to crisp. Ship mates rescued them before their bod ies dropped into the bay.
 The terrific concussion blew the two- inch hatch covering fifteen feet in the air. The entire starboard side of the chaser, from the three-inch gun mounted forward to a point near the after hatch, was lifted nearly IS inches l by the explosion.
 The flames set fire to the upper works, consuming much of the wood work, signal flags, ships papers and other documents and equipment.
 Fifteen other submarine chasers moored abreast and fore and aft of No 1 297. engaged in mad scramble to un- moor and get free of the wharf wher the flames began to spread. The rapid i ity with which they were handled pre- vented damage to any of the othel i chasers.
 Officers of the submarine chaser flo tilla declare that it is a miracle tha the explosion did not create more dam age. The exploded gasoline tank wa:
