SAFETY CHANCE OF SUB VICTIMS

YMUIDEN, Netherlands, July, 5.
(Correspondence) For many a hap
less boatload of submarine rlctlms in
the North Sea the laying up of the big
Ymuiden and Vlaardingen fishing fleets is calculated to have vital conse
quences. Their chances of salvation, at any rate so far as a very wide area of that sea is concerned, now virtually
has been restricted to the finding of a lightship, to making land or being picked up by the comparatively rare
passing steamship or occasional warship squadron.
What the absence of these fishing
craft must mean may be judged from
the fact that since the proclamation iof the sharpened submarine war alone
more than 200 such victims have been 'landed at Ymuidcn by fishing vessels seamen, of all nationalities, but , mostly belonging to neutral nations,
who had been found drifting in open boats on the high seas. The total thus saved since the outbreak of war is more than 600. Destroy Fishing Smacks Despite the German government's assurances respecting the safety of , neutral fishing craft in certain prescribed parts of the North Sea, a number of Dutch trawlers and other fishing boats have been ruthlessly de- , stroyed and others taken into German I ports, with the result that the Jlsher,men resolved to suspend their operations and sent two deputations to Berlin on the subject. .The recent action is really most harmful to Germany's own vital inter-

tion. Britain and Germany were to
snare the surplus catches of the
Ymuiden fishermen.
' 'The cause of all the trouble appears to.be the "unreliable bearings of Ger
man commanders, who constantly
assert that ashing craft and other ves
sels are in the barred zone, whereas
the bearings ; carefully taken by ex
perienced neutral captains show them
to be well within J the "safe" zone.
Germany has just agreed to pay com
pensation in . one or two cases, and
Dutch fishermen naturally hope that she will yet find a way of rescuing
them from the submarine menace and
thus enable them to resume the ex
ercise of a calling that Is, at the best
of times, hazardous enough.

NO TRICK TO LIFT

vailing there, seeing that the German markets are thereby robbed of their trainloads of fish from Holland and thousands of Germans of comparatively cheap and nourishing food. Brit

latest agreement a recent case in
point is that of the big Dutch steamer
Batjan laden with grain from New York for the Netherlands government This vessel was subjected to heavy shellfire by a German submarine in
the North Sea. The Batjan's first officer rowed to the U-boat, and according to his report it took him an hour and a half to convince the German commander that the Batjan was demonstratably well ' within the socalled 'safe zone.' Forced to Change Charts Cases have occurred of German submarine commanders having to alter their charts after it had been proved to them by their victims that they had been attacked in the channel in which the German admiralty

The "glasssmooth." highly finished surface of the Solid End offers no possible lodging place for dust and various unsanitary accumulations ; it is rather strictly in keeping with the hard, smooth and gleaming walls of the provision compartment. The unyielding strength of the Solid End is guaranteed without the slightest reservation. In eliminating the thin panel from the ends, strength is not only increased many, many times, but insulation is at least doubled, and the extra cost of manufacture doubly justified. So skillfully is the blending of the various sections accomplished, that the solid wood itself is guaranteed to break before it is possible to separate a single section at the tongue and groove.
