WAR MYTHS HOLD
PEOPLE'S INTEREST
Stories of Submarine in Ches
' apeake Bay and Air Raid on
Cities Are Persistent.
OFFICIAL DENIALS NO AVAIL
Gossip on Streets and in Clubs of
Capital Cares Little for Real
Facts, but Feed on Most
Thrilling Narrative.
BY CHARLES MICHAELSON.
WASHINGTON. July 15. (Special.)
Only a little less Interesting than the
truth about the war In Washington is
the untruth about the war.
Some of the myths that are recited
with vastly more Interesting detail than
anything that is issued with stamp of
a Cabinet Secretary have fairly passed
Into current history and will undoubt
edly figure in the schoolbocks of the
future as persistently as Washington's
anti-conservation exploit with the fa
mous cherry tree.
Just as archaeologists find It neces
sary to pay as much attention to the
study of the fables and the fancies of
a vanishing race as to the authentic
annals in order to understand their sub
ject, so a review of the apocryphal tales
and misinformation of today must be
made to get a proper perspective of
Washington in wartime.
These stories fall under three Impor
tant heads:
The submarine myth.
The airship myth.
The treason myth.
There are Innumerable sub-species
under this classifica tion.
Many See "Submarlaf."
There is an enemy submarine In
Chesapeake Bay. As many people have
seen the periscope whizzing through the
waves as ever saw the sea-serpent or
the hoop-snake that rolls with its tail
in its mouth.
Secretary Daniels has denied that any
navy boat fired on the submerging
speck or that a cordon of destroyers
and a barrier of nets has been stretched
across the Capes to prevent the escape
of the grisly visitor into the ocean, but
what importance can be attached to the
declaration of the Navy Department in
war time?
Everybody knows that the declaration
of war caught a German sub-sea boat
that had been assigned to facilitate the
escape of a royal personage who mas
queraded as an attache to Von Bern
storfTs legation, while directing the
work of espionage.
This flying Dutchman of the under
seas was to have placed the Prince on
board an imperial yacht, the yacht was
driven away by American warships be
fore the serene highness could be
brought to it and the submarine's radius
of action is too short to enable it to get
home alone, so it lurks in the bay; so
it rises at night, while the yacht makes
a dash every now and then from a hid
den West Indian base in the hope of
picking up its passenger.
Coast Cities to Be Bombarded.
You can get further details of this
affair in every club in Washington and
on every stree corner, but it has not
the authority that attaches to the tale
of the giai.t submarine that is going to
Germany has built two 5000-ton sub
marines for this very purpose. The
State Department has received warning
from the British Embassy and the Navy
Department has recalled most of its
destroyers from the other side to hunt
the monsters in home waters.
It is pointed out that the-huge size
of the German U-boats makes it pos
sible for them to cross the Atlantic
with enough torpedoes to demoralize
shipping utterly, and they have folding
guns of large caliber with, which " to
reach the coast cities.
They have not been sent yet because
they are being held to sink the trans
ports that carry the next installment
of troops to France. It there are ap
parent some incongruities in this tale
it is the fault of the story and not of
the narrator. It is vain for the Secre
tary of State to deny that any such
word has reached the Government. It
does not signify that the approach of
the nearly every important Atlantic
port, except for certain difficult chan
neli, is over water too shallow for
such a sea monster '.o maneuver in.
Visit Tossiblej Not Probable.
That a big submarine miijht come
over and do what damage it could,
either by bombarding the shore or
sinking ships at the entrance of our
harbors, is possible, of course; but that
any substantial advantage to Germany
.commensurate with the danger of los
ing the submarine would result is ab
surd. Such ships have bombarded English
coast towns, .but Germany is working
on the theory that she can starve Eng
land, and believes she might force her
to withdraw enough of her patrol fleet
to make the blockade Ineffective.
The mere possibility that the sub
marine myth might come true some
day Is what keeps it alive.
Air Attacks Pomlsed Four Cities.
The aeroplane myth, like the sub
marine myth, concerns a warning to
this Government. The Germans are
going to send out a ship as they have
sent out two or three commerce raiders
through the blockading English
squadron. This ship is fitted to carry
four hydro-aeroplanes of great bomb
capacity, with landing platforms like
those of the aeroplane mother ships
common to all modern navies. OK
Highland Light a myth has to be
definite to get in this company the
first plane will be loosed to shatter
Boston, while the vessel proceeds
south. Another plane will visit New
York, the third Philadelphia and the
fourth ashington.
The treason myth is a will-o'-the-
wisc Jack-o-lantern kind of a yarn
alighting on this, now on that eminent
citizen in or out of the Government
service. The President has all the in
formation concerning the prominent
wretch who is betraying his country
but takes no action because he does
not want to alarm the Nation.
FLOUR IS GIFT TO WIFE
Sea Captain, Just In, Tells of Situa
tion in Sweden.
TACOMA, Wash., July 15. (Special.)
Captain A. V. Lindquist has just come
into a Pacific Coast port witn nis uuu
ton Swedish freighter. His ship is the
first flying the Swedish colors to ar
rive on the Coast since the United
Ktatpq entered the war.
"My country is truly neutral, for
while the people are divided in their
sympathies, they realize for. the sake
of their country they must De neutral.
But in spite of all they do, the nation
is suffering for that for which they
are not to blame, and for what they
cannot help. None of the powers at
war has been fair to them. We are
unable to export, we are unable to Im
port. We had built up great industries,

once went Paderewski's several better. In his new uniform as a third-class
musician at $30 a month in the band of the United States Coast Artillery.
He is shown with the saxaphone which he plays In the Army band.
Grainger has forsaken tha symphonies and ballads and has joined tha
artillery band to play marches for Uncle Sam's soldiers. Grainger is an
Australian and received his education In Europe. He had been getting at
least $1000 for a performance. At one of his recent recitals he raised $2600
for tha Red Cross.
Thousands of famous musicians In the United States are soon to be enrolled
Into one great unit. They will give well-organized concerts and recitals
for the benefit of Red Cross and war charities. The happy idea is Ernest
Schelling's and he has done a lot to foster the movement already. Ignace
Paderewski has accepted the honorary chairmanship and John McCormack
has been chosen treasurer.
the finest of their kind; now they are
useless, like so much wood and iron.
The men have been thrown out of
work, yet they must have food just the
same. And our ships which before had
plied to every port in the world with
the zeal that our viking fathers have
handed down to us, are now idle. Since
the United States has entered the war
our ships are all useless, they have no
place to go.
"Some of us have money, but what
good does money do when there is

"We. although we're not in war, are

National Guard Enlistments Are Found
to Be Much Greater Than Those of
Regular Army Service.
A table showing- the allocation of
enlistments in each county In Oregon,
both tn the guard and regular Army,
was made public yesterday by George
A White, Adjutant-General of the Ore
gon National Guard. It is complete, he
says, and will stand as final.
The table shows the total 'of enlist

Law by August 1.
INSURANCE ACT COMES UP
Senator Smoot's Amendment Provid
ing for Purchase of Liquors
Slay Re Modified or Elimin
ated In Conference.
WASHINGTON, July 15. Disposal of
the Administration food-control bill by
the Senate, under Its agreement for a
final vote next Saturday, virtually
comprises the entire programme of
Congress this week. The bill will be
discussed after Wednesday under a
five-minute limit of debate. Prompt
agreement o the conference next week
Is expected so that the legislation will
be on the statute books before August 1.
With the food bill and practically all
other war legislation congested in the
Senate, the House virtually will sus
pend work until next week. New war
measures are being brought out almost
daily, however, giving Capitol leaders
little hope of adjournment for many
weeks.
Soldier Insurance to Come Tp.
This week the Administration ex
pects to submit Its measure for Insur
ing soldiers and sailors, and the House
appropriation committee will begin
work on a new $3,000,000,000 war
budget.
Awaiting Senate action are the $640,
000.000 aviation measure, the $1,670,000,
000 war tax bill, the trading-with-the-enemy
measure and many others of
minor importance already passed by
the House.
Actual voting on amendments to the
food bill may begin tomorrow. The
leaders are confident that bi-partisan
conferences and the President's sup
port for the original plan of legislation
will develop an amended measure lim
iting Government control, but with sub
stantial regulatory powers to food,
feed and fuels.
Purchase Plan May Be Amended.
It Is planned to settle the prohibi
tion differences in conference between
Senate and House, with the probabil
ity of a compromise eliminating or
modifying Senator Smoot's &mendment
