London. Nov 22.—Twenty more
German submarines were surrender­
ed to Admiral Sir Riginald Tyrwhitt
ott Harwich
this morning. This
makes a total of 59 submarines thus
{ar handed over. There would have
been 21 surrendered today, but one

When the Germans arrived the

gume of the officers had replaced
Prussian eagles on their caps with a
red badge that recognizes authority
of the Sailors’ and Soldiers’ Council.
There seemed to be little discipline
among them. To the officers one
shouted; “No officer—no Kaiser.”
Firth of Forth began to weigh an­
chor at 1 o’clock this morning. The
rendezvous was approximately 50
miles distant and the ships gauged
their speed to arrive at the desig­
nated place at 8 o’clock.
j Eyes straining through the murky
haze finally were rewarded. Off the
starboard bow the Cardiff, trailing
an observation kite balloon, came
steaming in. Close behind her came
the first of the German ships, the
great battle cruiser Seydlitz, which
was flying the flag of Commodore
Togert. After her came four others
of the same type, the Derfflinger,
Von der Tann, Hindenburg and
Moltke. They moved along three
cable lengths apart.
Immediately followed them were
nine dreadnoughts, the Frederich
der Grosse, flagship of Rear Admiral
von Reuter; the Koenig Albert, al-
ser, Kronprinz Wilhelm, Kaiserine,
Bayern, Markgraf, Prinz Regent Lu-
itpold, and Grosser Kurfuerst.

The first week in November, 1918,
was the most memorable week. The
people of the United States won two
great victories over Germany. The
first on November 5, when a protec-
tionist plurality was elected to the
National Congress. The other was on
November 11, when the Allies and
the United States compelled Germany
to surrender and lay down her arms,
Surely these are two big events to
be crowded into one week.

The National Republican remarked
after the Maine election that if a re­
publican victory in that state had
been followed by the capture of the
San Mihiel salient by Pershing and
and urgent seeking after peace by
Austria, it seemed likely that the Re­
publican success all along the line
would be followed by the surrender
of the Germans and the abdication
of the Kaiser. It seems to have been
a pretty good guess.
« * «
In his pre-election appeal leaving
all his hopes and burdens to the
people, President Wilson said. "The
return of a Republican majority to
either house of Congress would be in­
terpreted on the other side of the
water as a repudiation of my leader­
ship.” That solemn thought, however
does not seem to have entirely stop­
ped proceedings on the other side of
the Atlantic. In- fact that was
conclusion in Europe it seems
have had a queer effect.

Chairman Hurley, of the Shipping
Board, says that the men who have
volunteered or been conscripted for
foreign service, will be held under
arms until their return will call no
disturbance in labor circles. The sug­
gestion that these men should be
kept in Europe at $30 a month after
the military necessity of their ser­
vice has ceased, in order that, their
return may not disturb some non-
combatant in his profitable job or
profession or business, is one that
may listen well to a politician, but it
will not be heard with patience by
the soldiers or the millions of Ameri­
cans who do not want the fighting
men of this republic sacrificed in be­
half of any group or class of non-
combatants. The men in khaki should
not be made the "goats” of economic
reorganization.

The Republican victory was hailed
with such joy in Berlin that the next
day everybody resigned.
