That the Germans during the
whole of the war never had more
than sixteen submarines operating in
any waters at any one time, was the
most startling statement made by
Mark Sullivan, former editor of Col
lier's Weekly, and who reported the
doings of the peace conference at
Versailles for the American press, in
a lecture given in Council bluffs un-
der the auspices of the Chamber of
Commerce entertainment committee.
Mr.. Sullivan is one of the best
known journalists in the country. He
quotes Admiral Sims as his authority
for the above statement. when
arrived on foreign soil for the first
time" he said, "one of the first men
| had an interview with was Admiral
Sims, the man who kept the sea
clear for the shipping of war and
who broke the backbone of the Ger
man offensive in the sea. Sims smil-
ingly asked me whether or not many
submarines rubbed against the side
of the ship that / came over on.
told him that l thought that was
very fortunate to be able to report
that l had had no such experience
The admiral then asked me just how
many enemy submarines l thought
there were operating in the high seas
at that time. 1 replied that had nc
way Of estimating, and finally. being
pressed, guessed the number at about
$50. Admiral Sims took me into a
room and showed me chart on
which a few little red pins were
stuck. Each one of these represents
a German submarine and it's loca.
tion at the present time. the admira
said. There were just sixteen pins.
Sullivan attributes the extreme
secrecy which shrouded the session.
of the conference to the necessity oi
keeping watch for conditions which
at that particular time of unrest
might have caused serious trouble il
exposed prematurely A little knowl.
edge is a dangerous thing seems tc
have been the philosophy upon which
the program of secrecy was founded
He cited the instance of the Fiume
decision. III that decision of the
conference to take Fiume away from
Italy had been made public at the
time. there would have been immedi-
ate revolution in that country" he
! said. "As it was. it was held up until
the decision to turn over to Italy
some Of the islands OF the Mediter-
ranean by way Of compensation, and
the two decisions being released to-
gethec caused little disturbance"
Sullivan is of the opinion that the
long debate in this country on the
league of nations and the treaty is
one of the best things that ever hap.
pened for the people. He calls it a
period of education and thinks thai
by so much rehashing of information.
