Reporting the Bottle

Now that the Admiral Graf Spec is
at the bottom of the River Plate, it
will be interesting to learn what new
version of the Nazi victory" at
Montevideo will be offered the Ger
man people by Herr Goebbels' ex-
traordinary propaganda machine.
. When the pocket battleship first
; limped into the harbor of Montevi-
dec with the British cruisers Ajax
and Achilles in close pursuit, the
magic OF Propaganda Minister Goeb-
bells transformed the situation into
a brilliant Nazi triumph-for the
edif1cation of worried Germans
listening to the official German ra-
dio. In this authorized Nazi broad
cast, pursued and pursuers were
reversed-it was the Graf Spec doing
the pursuing and the British cruisers
doing the fleeing to a place of refuge
In neutral port. Yes, said the
broadcast, it was true that the Graf
Spec went into port, too, but only to
take on supplies. The Graf Specs
provisions had been ruined by poison
gas, used by the English in defiance
of international law, it was ex-
planned. Damage to the Graf Spec?
Well, hardly any. "No visible traces
of the engagements are to be seen,"
avoWed the Berlin broadcaster. "The
bridge and observation mast are un-
scathed."
Herr Goebbels' magic has been de-
bunked by the magic of radio photo
graphs and by unbiased dispatches
from neutral observers at Montevi-
deo. Photographs do not lie. The
pictures flashed from Uruguay
showed badly battered Graf Spec,
with many visible traces of the en-
gagements. 1t is safe assumption
that the German people will not get
a glimpse of any of the photographs
of the pocket battleship taken be-
fore her destruction. Nor is it likely
that they will be told that the ships
provisions were ruined by the ex-
plosion of British shell inside the
storage room and that among the
supplies" taken aboard the ship at
Montevideo were huge steal plates
and welding torches, to be used in
patching her torn hull
Another thing that Herr Goebbels
may be expected to keep from the
German people, If possible, is the fine
compliment paid to the commanders
OF the British cruisers by Captain
Hans Langsdorff, commander of the
Admiral Graf Spec. Apparently un-
aware Of the distorted accounts of
the battle being foisted on his fellow
citizens by the Nazi propaganda min
istry, fortnight Captain Langsdorff,
In an interview, admitted that his
ship had suffered enormous dam
age" His message later, protesting
Uruguay's refusal to give him more
time for repairs, gave some details of
the actual damage. He told reporters
that the shippers of the smaller
British cruisers had maneuvered
their smaller ships with a daring
that was hardly credible" and he
failed to say a word about British
poison gas" But Captain Langs-
dorff is not propagandist. He is a
good offlcer-and a gallant one, as
events at Montevideo attest without
benefit of propaganda. If Germany
should win this war, and her chances
are simmer than ever, now that one
OF her three pocket battleships is
gone, it will be because of such fight
ers as young Captain Langsdorff-
and in spite of the stupid and inept
chicanery of the Nazi propagandists
back in Berlin.

Proposes Naming Ship
For Capital.

To the Editor OF The Star:
I read the letter by James D'Orsay

interest shown by him in the naming Of
ships in our Navy.
Being an ex-sailor, realize how he

the Navy in 1907, the U. s. S. Dolphin.
Why can't we have ship named for

We have U. S. s. Washington, named

U. S. s. Washington, D. c., or U. 8. s.
