Baby Has A Ride On A Submarine Stinging Sarcasm in Cheeze News Editorial on German Pirates Baby had a ride on a submar- ine; now wasn't that cute? The nice submarine command®r had to blow up baby's ship, for some reason. It was-a neutral ship, the Portuguese Corte Real, bound from Lisbon to New York with a load of freight and passengers, and it was far from any so-called war zone. But Hitler wanted it & Anyway, the German comman- der was a jolly fellow. Seeing that the mothers and babies were ter- 'rified, when he said he was going to sink the ship, he took them onto his submarine. Then he scuttled the ship, then shelled it, ten torpedoed it. One of the lifeboats got blown up, but the two others floated, so the submarine towed them a little way ahd told them which way to row to get back to land. All this time, according to The - 4 Associated Press, the Germans on the submarine were very gay, and "cheered up the "mothers, and played with the babies, remarking that "they had babies like these at home." ~ FR = * - .

They might have been rowing several days and nights before they could get to land, but, luckily, a fishing steamer saw them next day, snd . towed them in. - N N So the story had a happy end- ing, after all, and the babies will have something to tell their chil dren when they, Ww up--some- thing "about rer s Germans, and how it was Hoe wont to sink peaceable neutral ships onthe high seas, leaving women and children adrift in open boats-- but all so very jolly and polite, with a little ride on the submar- ine thrown in for baby!

"This outstand- ing achievement," said Hitler, "was © obtained with sacrifices that, however painful in indivi dual cases, in the total amount do scarcely b per cent, of those of the World War." ; Total German casualties in the World War amoGnted to 7,142, J +658, according 'to the World Al- manac. Five per cent of this amount would be 357,160 men lost in the present Russian war, But on September 19 the German High "Command recapitulated its casualties up to the end of Aug- ust, They were 402,865. Since the beginning of September the fighting' became even more in- + telise, but seemingly there were less than no casualtics. On the othe hand, one conservative Brit- ish estimate says the.- German casualties are 17,000 a day.

Louis Blaison said in a ° broadcast to conquered France recently that the Free French submarme Surcouf, largest sub- mersible in the world, would "shortly be setting out to sea again to "seek out the enemy."
