Every American Battleship On Job Says Admiral Benson

'I want to say one thing to the American pople and that thing 13 that th- I'nited .'tate.s navy, from hraiot l-attlff hip to humblest collier, is preeminently on the job i nl that it:-, oiticers, from the highest tri the lowest grade, are aler! and ahe to the great big job that ! ;s on their hands. '' j The speaker was Admiral W. S. j I'.enson. uprerne active head of all of Fn b; SaTu's great gray ships on , whi' h much of the. hope of th- na tion rest in theso perilous times. The admiral was comfortably seate l on a burr.:e in one of the ret ; rooms at the Oliver hotel, where , he was awaiting participation in the , exercises w hich took place at No- ! re Dame university last niht and luiinu' uhich he was honored witii 1 the medal of Laetare, given each jyiar to the mot distinguished Catholic laym.m in America. Secrecy Nex-cssary. "A cloak of secrecy h ts necessarily been Hung about the United States navy." went on Admiral Henson. "It could not be otherwise unless we wished to put ours ehe. dferis.-b-ss. before the enemy powers. No ine better than 1 know the absolute necessity of a cloak beiag rtun-r over our ships. Th I'nited States is honey-combed with Cerman spy systems, the most efficient the world has ever known. -When I left Washington." went on the admiral. "I left with Mr. Daniels a memorandum dealin-; with the American news situation. That memorandum will probably be myde public tonight or tomorrow and it will reveal the imperativeness of care in telling of the movements of even our most insignificant naval units. "Something happened to nie quite recently in Washington which indicated the ctficiency of the (Jerman spy system now covering the country." continued the naval head. "I was recently a guest at a banquet at which many notables and high government otfieials were present. During the evening I was approached by a man who told me that he wished to discuss a matter of great import dealing with a governmental and naval situation. While the man had my confidence, I did not fetl that the time was auspicious for such a discussion and declined to hear what he had to say. His conversation with me, I thought, had not been heard by three people. Before the next afternoon that conversation was redetailed to me in such a manner as to show that it had all passed through the hands of a spy system. There is something uncanny about the manner in which they watch things." Suppress AH Details. Admiral Benson declared that the time had come when patriotic newspapers should refrain from 450 Essays on Human Topics by School Children Decisions in the prize essay contest for school children by the Humane society are to be announced within the next two weeks, according to the judges in charge of tho contest. More than 4 50 essays have boon sent in by the pupils of the grade schools who are competing for the prizes. From the t-et-ond grades there are essays; S from the third; SI from the fourth; TJ from the tilth; ss from the sixth; ".7 from tho seventh. According to the plans of the society there will be six prizes for each grade, two first, two second and two third. The winners of the lirst prize in the different school will h: prc.-ented with a silver loving cup having the name of the .society, the date and the home of tho winner upon it. F.ach school building wherein the winners of the prizes hive been attending school will he -iven a beautiful picture with a brass plate showing that it has been presented by the society. All of these essays In the hands of the Jud-ies now are upon human? sub ects. They will be judged for their general literary merit, allowing due consideration for the ag? and the ur.uie of the writer, neatness, grammar, spelling and writi n g . The sas of the sixth and seventh pi pils. home ot them contain as many as 1,'ooi to 1.7.00 words", v. m!e thos of the li;tle second and third -rade contestants are very short hut written with all the literary ability the writer possesses. ONE DIVORCEGRANTED Mtly one divorce was granted by A. tire Judge Shixe'.y at the usual Saturdav divorce matime in superior court. Camilla Den Hert sued Beter Den Hert on the charge of abandonment. The separation was granted. The iVn Herts were married on May 4. 1 : 1 1 . at I-ooehristy. Belgium, and lived together as husband and wire until Nov. T, l'.14.

printing any details about even the least important naval units engaged in war service. "The collier, the 'fetch and carry vessels of the navy, are very busy in one way and another just now," said the admiral and went on: "Kecently these vessels have been engaged in carrying guns to Trench fishing Nessels who are supplying much of the food of the Frenc h people. In several instances publication was made of the departure of these vessels. This is something that should not occur. Those vessel, while doing an incondcuous service, are vitally important in victual and gun carring. Their movements should be guarded very closely. "We of the navy have learned that the newspapers of the United States as well as the great newsserving associations of the country, are more than willing to render every aid possible in the suppression of news inimical to the publicwelfare. Hut now and thn a publication breaks out and prints news that should not be printed. I wish to impress upon the minds of editors and newspaper owners and news writers the importance of silence on soTne subjects, for this silence concerns the very life of the nation. The publishing of news of this sort, no matter how insignificant the paper in which it appears, creates the feeling of 'If that newspaper doer, it, why can't our newspaper do the same thing? .Sueh a sentiment should not be allowed to gain headway and the responsibility rests with the editors of the country." Admiral Benson in closing his interview returned to the subject of the fitness of the United States navy and declared that "the service was never in better condition than at the present time. Modelled Alter l.nglili. "The navy is being modelled afti l . t er tne i-.ngusn navy maimy, nu said. The admiral reached South Bend yesterday afternoon shortly after -o'clock from Iipaz, where he detrained and was met in automobiles by a party of Catholic prelates. He, with Mrs. Benson, made a hurried call at Notre Dame before securing quarters at the Oliver hotel. Upon Admiral Benson's appearance at the university it was a matter of comment among those who had never seen him before, that his likeness to the actor, John Drew, is striking. The admiral is considerably larger than the actor but he has the same face modelling, the same reticence of manner and gesture and the same insinuating drawl in his voice. His eyes are gray blue and he looks out of them with level glance and the admiral is a bit bald, if you please. Goodrich Will Hear Strikers' Side Monday Gov. Goodrich will hear the strikers' side of the controversy in South Bend Monday. This word was received in a telegram from the governor by Z. Dekelboum, attorney for the strikers. Satuiday morning. Gov. Goodrich will be here to attend the Notre Dame commencement exertises Monday night and has signified that he will hear the men. A committee of strikers to include Dekelboum, Organizer Shine and Prcs't Claude Barnes, besides several members of the union will meet with the governor at his convenient e. The suggestion has been made that Mayor Keller appoint a committee of citizens to appear before the governor and relate their grievances against the company. Mayor Keller could not be located Saturday morning for confirmation of this suggestion. He has been securing opinions of citizens for some time, esjecially before the appointment of the mediation board and may take these opinions before the governor In person. In all probability the governor will try to get first hand information upon the situation and upon the quality of service being rendered by the company. URGE USE OF STAMPS OF HIGHEST VALUE Word has been received at the loial postoftice from Washington to encourage the public to use stamps of the highest denomination suitable to the amount of required postage on all mail. For example a -cent stamp instead of tw o 1-cent stamps should be athxed to letters needing --cent postace. It is expected that if the public r. nd the postotlice employes cooperate on this matter they will sae the povernnient a larce amount ir. the cost of production, transporting ard canceling. This is especially important to business concerns mailing larse quantities of letters and parcels. Postmaftera are requested to brim; this matter to their notice at once. Word has also been received of the elimination of the insurance tax after July 1. !UflS. to lu v liih;kty Harmony camp Ts, V. o.

GERMANS RUSH

TO REGISTER HERE Application Blanks Are Given Out and Men Told to Come Back Before June 16. German residents of South Bend were in a wild scramble yesterday to register, and more than 2'ot applicants for registration papers had to be turned away because the supply of blanks was exhausted under the unprecedented demand. Anthony Wolf, special deputy l nitecl states marshal late yesterday" telegraphed to M. L. Stören. I'nited States marshal, to rush more blanks here as soon as possible. This unexpected twist to events has made it necessary for the authorities to extend the time limit during which aliens may register until June 16. According to statements made by local officials last night the registration list will be swelled to more than 1,50m before the time limit expires. It was impossible for U. S. officials to say last night just how many registrations h;d taken place to date inasmuch as factory registrations have not been completely reported and because several factories have not yet put the registration into effect.
