U-Boat Revelations.
BY Webster.
from the New York Times.

from the New YORK Times.
The truth about the German failure
in submarine warfare is now being
revealed in publications that no long
er cringe under the whip of an oficial
censorship that was without con-
science or honor. According to the
Berlin vossische Zeitung, Germany
lost 1913 submarines during the war.
including seven interned in foreign
ports and fourteen destroyed by their
own crews. This statement is an ad-
mission that 1T were sunk by tho
allies and lost at sea. AS most OF
the U-boats carried as many men as
could be crowded into them, the an
nouncement that 5000 sailors were
drowned in the sinkings IL not sur
prising; but the darker tragedy Is
that the conditions of service on these
vessels were SO nerve-wrecking that
several thousand sailors lost their
reason and were committed to insane
asylums. Here is an explanation OF
the mutinous spirit that spread
through the high sea Meet and at last
destroyed its morale.
A final cast of fortune in battle
with the allied fleets could no more
be considered. The keenest and
braveSt men were DelnS uTdlteu "
the submarines, but as the CHASTITY
truth OF the horrors of the service
became known to every common SAIL
or men refused to join the u-boats;
and in the end discipline utterly failed
at KEEL The navy. which had been
the pride of the kaiser. was service
rotten to the core. British oncers
have spoken contemptuously Of the
spirit that surrendered the high sea
fleet without striking blow. but
there was no fight left in 1t. IL any
other navy had fairly f1ogged its men
into a submarine campaign that was
odious in the sight of mankind. and
to engage in which was sure 70 De
suicide sooner or later. would not ais
cipline and the Joy Of battle have
ceased to exist in that service? The
Germans fought bravely in the battle
of Jutland, and died like men IN the
Pacific when their time came. but
they could not endure the ugly y
boat collins which doomed them TO
death or the loss OF their reason
The submarine campaign was lost
long before the Germans signed the
armistice. Listening devices, depen
bombs and the unerring guns or
swarming destroyers made each ven
ture from the base like a forions
hope, and to find crews became the
despair of the admiralty.

The Fighting Regulars.
From the New York World.

/
IT is right for every city or state 20
take a peculiar pride in the battle rec
ord of its guardsmen and draft troops,
! but it is always the regulars who are
| in the thickest of the fighting. Re-
ceptions and local enthusiasm are not
| for them, because they belong only to
the country in general. but they can
have the consolation of knowing that
| they are to America what the old
guard was to Napoleon.
The table of our losses in the world
| war just issued by the government IL
especially significant, and 1t shows
what a bulwark the regulars were.
Three regular divisions. the LIST. I'd
and Sd, including originally $1,000 men,
suffered % per cent of all our casual
ties, and from first to last, according
to Gen. March. we had about 1850, 900
men in battle. The I'd. to which the
marines were attached, leads with
! more than $4,000 casualties. more
than twice as many as were suffered
by our 77th. draft troops who had
most valiant record. This division
was thrown in the path Of the tri-
umphant Germans when they came
over the Observation-Disclosures and
across the Aisne and the vesle to the
Marine and Chateau-Thierry, and IL
undoubtedly stopped a march on
Paris.
The Sd Division met the shock Of
the Germans on the morning OF July
Is, 1918. when they crossed the Marine
on their last great drive. and Luden-
DORIS men left more than 5000 dead
in front Of this single division.
The LIST Division had $4,000 casual
ties and in conjunction with the I'd
had leading part in the great coun-
ter-stroke under Mangin on the morn
ing of July Is which thrilled the al
lied world and which turned the tide
of the whole war. as Gen. Hais him
self states in his ofiicial report. This
tremendous blow. one of the most ef-
fective in the history Of war. was
made by two American regular divi-
sions Of $1,000 men each and three
French divisions Of about $4,000 each.
The other regular divisions would
have done as well as the first three il
the opportunity had como to them.
and while a grateful country will
have little chance to applaud them II
can never forget them.

Fewer and Larger Army Posts.

From the New York Sun.
The War Department intends to re-
new its often repeated Recommended
ton that humber of old Army posts
in the south and west be abandoned.
and with the lessons of the war fresh
in mind it should be able to induce
Congress to follow it's advice.
Hitherto local influence and the
good-natured willingness of members
of Congress to help colleague please
his constituents have held up the
plans of the military authorities to
abolish some posts which never were
needed and others which long ago
ceased to be necessary.
1t is now apparent to everybody
that the Army should be maintained
in large units. from command of
which in peace officers and men NAV
learn much that will be useful in war.
Before the war the companies com
posing a regiment were scattered all
over the country and a full brigade
of Regulars gathered together in one
encampment would have been a nov
city to many Army men. By giving
up unnecessary posts the Army can
be concentrated in a few CAMPS. to
the benefit of enlisted men. Officers
and the country.

Government Control of Farms.


The Farmers National Council ad-
vocates government ownership and
operation of railroads. packing plants
and the war emergency fleet. Sup
pose this principle were carried to It's
logical conclusion. Suppose the
masses should insist that the govern
ment take over the farms to reduce
the cost of living. Suppose the con-
suming public should bring upon the
government a nationwide demand
that this be done to lower the cost Of
foods. What then would happen to
the S2.26 price for wheat? In taking
over the farms suppose 1t were done,
not on the basis of what the farmer
considered his land now worth to him.
but at a price the government deemed
lust under normal conditions. Farm
ers would not be such enthusiastic
advocates Of government ownership
if it were applied to themselves. but
that may be expected il their pro-
gram as to other industries is carried
out to its ultimate conclusion
