SUBMARINES HERE TO STAY ADMIRAL SAYS

LONDON, Feb. 1. — Submarines have come to stay, whether we like it or not,” is the emphatic declara- tion of Vic-Admlral G. A. Ballard, former ricertor of operations in the British Admiralty.

In more dramatically phrased, if less vigorous, style, he is taking up the cudgels after the fashion of the late Admiral Fisher who conducted a famous letter-writing campaign on

the thesis that submarines and aero-

planes had negatived the capital ship. His war cry was "Scrap the lot!”

Ballard does not go so far .as his one-time chief, but he is hammering relentlessly into the British public his belief that the Empire must have submarines.

“We must avoid the attitude that these vessels are subject for con-

tempt,” he declared, referring to the case against them presented by Mr. Balfour at Washington. "They are

formidable engines of war, requiring to be treated as such.

USEFUL MINE LAYERS

“Although in the war not a single British or French battleship was

sunk by German guns more than a

dozen met their fate either in direct encounter with submarines or by mines that, submarines alone could have placed where they wore.

“That in itself furnishes conclusive evidence of the effectiveness of the submarines, even when used in a

perfectly legitimate way, as we used them ourselves. Moreover, this evi- dence does not stand alone, for the moral effect of submarines is very great apart altogether from their threat to merchant ships,

“Had they never existed it is al- most' certain that we should have forced our way into the Baltic and

by attacking or menacing the Ger- man rear, altered the entire course of flip war

MOVEMENTS OE FLEET

“Again, it was the fear of subma- rines that affected the whole move-

ments of the Grand Fleet and com-

pelled us to drain all other war areas

of destroyers in order to protect, our

hattleships. with the result of se-

riously weakening our position in

these areas. And yet again, it was

the German submarines that forced

the withdrawal of our heavily-armed ships from advantageous bombard-

ing positions outside the Dardanelles, after the Majestic and the Triumph had been sunk.

“The claim that fifteen million

troops were safely conveyed across

the Channel proves very little against submarines, for these narrow waters are especially favorable for defens- ive precautions, and our precautions were conducted on a specially extens- ive scale. It was far otherwise in

the Mediterranean, where one troop- ship after another was sunk, and where, had it not been for the ar-

rival of the Japanese destroyer flo- tilla to assist the Allies a situation

would have been reached early in

1917 in which the safety of all rein-

forcements and supplies for the east-

ern theaters of war would have been

seriously jeopardized.”

NEW LAMP BURNS 94% AIR

Beats'Electric or Gas A new oil lamp that gives an amaz-

ingly brilliant, soft, white light, even

better than gas or electricity, has been tested by the U. S. Government and 35 leading universities and found to be superior to 10 ordinary oil lamps. It burns without odor, smoke or noise—no pumping up, is simple, clean, safe. Burns 94% air and 6% common kerosene (coal-oil).

The inventor, Z. B. Johnson, 29 N. Fifth St., Portland, Ore., is offering to send a lamp on 10 days’ FREE trial, or even to give one FREE to the first user in each locality who will nelp him introduce it. Write him to- day for full particulars. Also ask him to explain how you can get the agency, and without experience or

money make $250 to $500 per month.

STRONG UNION OF HAWAIIANS

IS ORGANIZED HONOLULU, Feb. 1, — Banding

themselves together to form an or-

ganization "that will unite in one

body all the wage workers in Ha-

waii, without discrimination as to

race, sex, creed, craft or color,” sev-

eral thousand laborers of all classes, representing many nationalities, have united in a labor organization to be known as the United Workers of Hawaii.

The new union, which, while it

recognizes the American Federation of Labor, still demands complete au-

tonomy in the conduct of its affairs in Hawaii, is considered by the busi-

ness interests as well as by the con-

servative labor element to be the most radical movement ever put on

foot in this territory. It represents th “One Big Union” idea, which in

the opinion of many is a form of Bolshevism and the embodiment of the communistic principle.

Owing to the comparative isolation and peculiar local conditions obtain-

ing in Hawaii, organized labor has

only gained foothold on the islands within the past few years and strikes have been almost unknown. In the winter of 1919-20 a strike of planta- tion laborers, which affected sev-

eral thousand workers, marked al- most the first serious labor dis- turbance in the history of Hawaii. This strike, which is believed to have been almost entirely racial in its na-

ture, was backed to a large extent by Japanese radicals. Sabotage and vio- lence of various sorts were em-

ployed by the leaders, but owing to tlv> very large bonuses then being paid to laborers by the sugar plnnt.n- ti'tis, leaving no grounds outside of pure race prejudice for continuing the strike, the laborers finally re-

turned to work without any of their demands having been granted.

LABOR COUNCIL ACTIVE Since the plantation strike of 1919-

2b (he Central Labor Council of Honolulu, a Japanese controlled body, has been very active and lias unon several occasions threatened strikes which, ho "ever, have failed to materialize. This body, together v-tfh other Japanese interests in

Hawaii, was active in financing two

men, designated as representatives of o’ganized labor in Hawaii, on a

trip to Washington for the purpose of fighting the passage of the Ha- waiian labor relief measure. This measure would empower the Presi- dent to authorized importation into Hawaii for a limited period of time of alien field hands otherwise inad- missible under existing immigration laws, whenever an actual labor short- age should be proven to exist in the islands.

The new union is the successor of the Central Labor Council of Honolu- lu. it is believed. It is at present headed by an American, George Wright, who was one of the emis- saries sent to Washington by the Jananese labor bodies. The control

will, ho%vever, be vester in a com-

mittee on which will be a Filipino, a Japanese, an American, a Korean, and eventually a Porto Rican. It is

understood, however, that the Japan- ese veto will control the activities of the new organization.

American business men through- out Hawaii view the new union with considerable apprehension, owing to the tremendous power which, if prop- erly organ 'zed, it will place in the hands of alien laborers, particularly Japanese. It is understood that the

majority of American laborers in the islands will not join the United Workers, but as tbov comprise but a

small minority this will have but little effect.
