BACK UP THE WAR PROGRAM '
URGES A NAVAL OFFICER
BY J. W. PEGLER.
(United Press .Staff Correspondent.)
WITH THE AMERICAN FLOTIL
LA IN BRITISH WATERS, July 10.
(By Mail) "Take off the lid and
show the people back home what a
fierce fight we're up against." Thus
a highly-placed American naval of
ficer, attaohed to the command of this
destroyer squadron, endeavored to say
something about a grave situation,
without being able to say anything
definite. The officers tell plenty in
confidence. The correspondents at
tached to the American destroyers
know that ships have been destroyed
by the U-boats in far greater tonnage
than at present they can be produced.
They know also, something of the
methods by which our destroyers are
fighting the unseen menace and of the
handicaps which are hampering the
fight handicaps which give the Ger
mans the advantage and which the
Americans back home . could remove
in a few months. But the naval officer
couldn't tell what ne knew, for pub
lication. And the correspondents are

work to the censorship. "It would
help the enemy if wo should tell our
people all they ought to know," the
naval expert continued. "A frank
statement of the whole submarine sit
uation, with its bearing on the land
campaigns, might be of considerable
practical value to him. Perhaps it
would also stimulate bis sinking mor
ale for a time that depends on
whether it would not eventually help
us to win this fight. If the people
could only know, they wouldn't for a
minute hold back the support we
need." Though the censorship, with
its evil tendency to shut the peoples'
eyes to the peril, be maintained, the
officer said ours need not become a
losing fight. Under present condi
tions, he advised, the people back
home can give best aid by backing
the war program of the Airmy and
(Navy Department without question,
.nowever grotesque iney may seem.
"Just now there are a hundred im
portant facts which would illuminate
the public mind," he concluded. "As

Petrogrnd, July 2. (By Mail)
This is a good place to omit for your .

life isn't even tolerable at less than
$25 a day. The fare from London and
back amounts to about $1000, includ

Are You One of Them?
There are a great many people who
would be very much benefited by tak
ing Chambenain s Tablets for a weak
or disordered stomach. Are you one
of them? Mts. M. R. Searl, Bald

in the use of these tablets: "I had a

pains in the pit of my stomach. Our
druggist advised me to take Chamber

I was cured." These tablets do not
relieve pain, but after the pain has

Humboldt River
Is A River Of Doubt
San Francisco, July 25. (Special!
South America's "River of Doubt"
has a rival in the Humboldt River in
Nevada which comes forward with an
entirely new claim tJ distinction. The
Humboldt River flows southwesterly
through the central portion of Nevada
near the line of the Southern Pacific
Railroad. This .river is declared to
be, in point of size and length, the
crookedest river in the world. It is
so crooked that sportsmen bring
strange tales of fish and game that be
come confused in trying to follow the
river's course and act as though in
toxicated. At one place adjacent to the rail
1 road, between two points two and a
j half miles apart, the river's leng'.h
is eight miles and by actual count its
course is alternately north twenty-five
times, cast eighteen times, south thir
ty times and west forty-one times;
also it may be stated that at thirty
three different points .it is within one
i hundred and fifty feet or less of
1 itself, the current flowing in opposite
j directions by these points.
I This "runaway river" crosses the
I Southern Pacific tracks 28 times ne
cessitating as many bridges costing in
aill $634,000.
By way of showing how completely
"locoed" it is, tha Humboldt ends its
course by running into the middle of
the desert and corkscrewing its way
out of sight in a huge sink.
On account of its devious w.'fy this
stream is a sportsmnn's paradise.
Ducks and geese after following its
treacherous course a short distance,
become deluded and forget their di
rection, returning five and six times
to the point at which they were dis
turbed. Fish experience the same dif
ficulty and become so perplexed that
they refuse to swim. The rhdians
have discovered this and simply net
the fish while they arc dazed.
Fred A. Rieeker, valuation engineer
of the Southern Pacific, and not Baron
Munchausen is resiionsilile for this ac
count of the peculiarities of Nevada's
crooked river.
