HUNS SINKING
ship IS BREACH
OF ARM|STICE
British Admiral Says Ger
mans Action Almost Tan
tamount to a New
Act of War.

London, June 22,-There is much
criticism over the sinking of the in
termed German warships in Scapa
Flow Saturday by the German
crews are charges the admiralty
says the crews were relieved
monthly and returned to Germany.
They were fed only such provisions
as they would, have obtained in
their own country.
Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge, re-
tired, former director of the intel
ligence department, interviewed by
the Weekly Dispatch, with regard
to the sinking, said:
1T is a breach of the armistice,
and therefore, almost tantamount
to new act of war, but at this
juncture it appears to mean that
the Germans intend to sign the
peace treaty. 1t looks like a plan
agreed upon in Berlin"
Commander Kenworthy, M. P.
told the Dispatch he did not think
the sinkings were carried out by
order of the German government.
but were engineered by a few hot
heads sick of existence at Scapa
Flow.
Cannot Blame Admiralty.
THE admiralty or the admiral in
charge" he said, Cannot be
blamed. Rather, the armistice COM
mission is to be censored for not
putting British crews aboard. but
we are we'll rid of the ships, which
were obslete."
The political correspondent of
the Sunday Times, commenting on
the news from Scapa Flow, says
that the sole topic in London was
general amazement that nothing
apparently had been done to safe
guard the ships against the posi-
bility of such destruction.
"The fact that the presence of
British guards was absolutely pre-
cluded by the armistice should
surely have necessitated more vigil
liant outside observation" he adds.
The public will want to know how
the German commanders were al
lowed the free intercourse neces-
sary for concerted action"
Admires Hun Spirit.
Arthur Pollen, the naval expert,
in an interview in the Dispatch ad-
mires the spirit of the Germans in
sinking their ships rather than to
allow them to pass into the posses
sion of their enemies.
Commander Kenworthy, M. P,
told the Dispatch it was the easiest
thing in the world to sink a ship by
opening the Kingston valve or re-
moving the covers of the conden-
sers. Commander Bellair, M. P,
declared no watch from the guard
boats could have prevented the
scuttling Of the ships and that
therefore the sailors on the spot
are. not to be blamed.
wThe admiralty is responsible,
Commander Bellairs declared, "for
they made the amistice but did not
think of the terms. Admiral Sir
Percy Scott, interviewed by the
Sunday Times, regards the sinking
Of the ships as something to be ex-
pected. -... -..
1T serves US right" he said, "for
trusting the Huns. They showed
throughout the war that they were
not a civilized race and they never
ought to have been treated as such;
they are barbarians."
The Weekly Dispatch says that
according to an officer who visited
the German feet last month, the
ships which arrived in Scapa Flow
were searched for explosives, but
not very stringently.
"The public will insinst upon dis
closure of the blunderer or blund-
erers, whose egregious trustfulness
was so cynically abused" says the
Weekly Dispatch.

FOX TROTS ON
LIBERTY LEGS
Limbs Blown Off by Shell, But
This Man Continues to Trip
Light, Fantastic Toe to jazz
Accompaniment.

Lillard Evans is a colored soldier
boy who had both legs blown off in
action. He lives for the present at
Letterman General Hospital at the
Preside in San Francisco He can
and does dance fox trots and one
steps. How? Why?
or course to dance a fox trot or
good legs Well, Evans has them
not his own legs of flesh and bone,
but his own willow legs with joints
and everything He is going to leave
Letterman pretty soon and go back to
work and make his living and prob
ably get married and raise children
That's the how.
The why of it is-the government
of the United States has gone in for
leg and arm making. 1t is giving a
specially built leg or arm or hand or
a pair of legs or arms or hands to ev-
cry soldier who lost his legs or arms
in the war At Letterman in particu-
lar they are making Liberty legs and
arms and hands in their own work
shop They are making them because
they have hit upon better artificial
limb than some manufacturers were
turning out
This is one phase of the reconstruc-
ton work that Uncle Sam is quietly
carrying on. 1t is one of the least ex-
pensiye, but it is costing hundreds Of
thousands of dollars. Remember that
when Uncle Sam comes a-knocking at
your door with the Victory Liberty
Loan. Much of the money you will
lend Is going to ragenerate these
men who gave of their flesh and blood
for their country.

Unique in the annals of war loan
history is the case of A. F. Moon, Jr.,
cashier of the Gainesville Bank, Car
tersville, Va. He has already secured
subscriptions for the entire allotment
of his bank This is the first bank
in the Fifth Federal Reserve District
which has made such a record, SO far
as is known.
Il am working night and day for my
town, county, state and nation" de-
clared Mr.. Moon. cat the close OF the
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign, /
thought it would be good idea to
keep the ball rolling, so instead of
stopping I went straight ahead and
continued getting subscriptions for the
Fifth Loan. Our bank sold $4,000 of
the Fourth issue, which is more than
double it's quota, and / was SO much
encouraged over that record that de-
cided to start right to work on the
Fifth Loan.
Cup to date, we have subscriptions
for more than $4,000 Victory Bonds,
but we are not through yet and ex-
pect to go right ahead and try to
double this if possible. The argument
I used was simply that the Victory
Loan was needed by my Government
and that it was up to every man to
finish the job by paying the bills for
victory which would have been
cheap at double the price"
Mr. Moon said he didn't know much
about the terms, interest rates OF
other details of the Victory Loan and
didn't care, going on the assumption
that the loan would be a good PROPOSE
ton in any shape offered.
