i EIGHT BY F, M. KIRBY Special Staff iDspatch. New York, June 7.—Bombardment of unfortified coast towns on the At lantic seaboard, air raids by hydro- airplanes brought over by large cruis- er submarines, and extension of the danger zone to all shipping in the Atlantic lane to Europe and South America, face America today, since the operations of German submarines off the U. S. coast. Fourteen months ago Henry Wood- house, governor of the Aero club of America, pointed out to me the pos- sibility of aerial raids on New York and our coast cities, as a corollary of submarine activity on this side o' the Atlantic. i What seemed then a remote’ impossibility is today an immedi- ate probability. America is for the first time face to face with real war at her very doors. The sinking of American ships by the subs on this side is only a fore- runner of what we may expect. If we awaken some night to the drop- ping of high explosive bombs in our streets we need not be surprised. Certain action has alreauy heen ta- ken by the government to prepare for such raids, but of course, it they grow an actuali‘y, our air defense in’ all cities along the Atlantic and Gult coast must be built up to rival the de- fenses of London and Paris. Another thing that must be faced is the bombarding of undefended coast resorts. The English watering places along the coasts were repeatedly shelled by German light forces during the ear lier part of the war, for two purpoges —in a campaign of frightfulness by which the Hun has always thought he could frighten his opponent, and sec- ondly, in an effort to cause such a demand for protection of the. coast towns that the British grand fleet in the North Sea would be sent along the English coast to protect the town», thus permitting the German high seas fleet to-break through the cordon. ‘Neither result was acttieved. The British were not frightened, nor did the british admiralty: make the mistake of dispesing'the fleet for the mere protection of coast towns against raiders. It the German submarines do bom- ‘bard our coast towns, such as Atlantic Cfty, Asbury Park, Ocean City, and other, undefended places, there wil: ‘de: pres from local interest to bring ur fleet to protect our own shores. Our own navy department will make no such mistal ' i Such isolated raids, while they may do some damage to property, will have no effect on the war; neither will the bombarding from the air by submar- ine-mothered airplanes have a de- cisive effect. Of course, adequate air defenses will de built up against such attacks, but raids of this character can only come at considerable intervals, and Ger- many will not pe permitted to trans- fer the war, from pver there to over here. ; Germ} sala, sulmiarine operations - on, this side oth fe.

Opportunity to study the pathologic effects of exposure of the human ret- ina to intense sunlight follows each important eclipse of the sun. After the eclipse that was visible from Northern Burope in April, 1912, there were more than twenty. papers pub- lished in ophthalmic journals, that dealt with reports of cases of this form of injury, and they continued to appear for nearly three years after the eclipse. Isolated cases of such lesions produced in other ways occur, ‘but the most important part of our knowledge of the subject has come from the eclipse cases. ¥ The Central Blind Spot. ‘The symptom always present, and which generally brings the patient un- der observation, is the central blind spot, appearing suddenly after the ex- posure and generally relative but sometimes absolute: Such a blind spot is hard to map, ‘being small, usually not over 1 degree in diameter, in- volving the fixation point and ofter bi- lateral. In the majority of cases, it disappears within month, but may last for several -months, or prove quite permanent. Sometimes blind spots occur in other parts of the field, relative ring blind spots having been notices. Another subjective symptom is “dazzling” or ‘quivering’ of ob- jects. which may be very annoying and may continue even after central vision appears ‘to be almost or. quite up to standard. Color scotoma (blind /spot) early and color changes (meta- morphosia) at a late stage are fre- quent subjective symptoms.

The league as it stands today is autocratic as the affairs of the organization are in the hands of a few self-appointed leaders. It would be wrong for the labor unions to denounce the league entirely and attempt to break it up. What we seek to do is to save the organization of farmers and place farmers at its head. While we endorsed the league’s ef- forts better legislation, it should not be understood by that. that the labor- itig men of North Dakota will vote the league ticket straight.” __ First Christmas Presents.
