Sinks During Night
London, Novo m ber 22.
(British Wireless Service.)
Twenty more German subma
rines were surrendered to Ad
miral Sir Reginald Tyrwhitt,
off Harwiek, this morning.
This makes a total of 59 sub
marines thus far handed over.
There would have been 21 sur
rendered today but onb sank
during the night.
The correspondent of the 'Wireless
Service with the British naval forces
says that just before noon a cruiser
came into sight, followed by the Ger
man submarines and a German trans
port. The transfer took place in the
harbor on account of the heavy 3ea
running. The majority of the subma
rines were large and nearly all were
fitted with wireless equipment.
When the Germans arrived it was
noticeable that the revolutionary ele
ment was decidedly present. Some of
the army officers -had removed the
Prussian eagles from their caps and
replaced them With a sort of red badge
that recognizes the authority of the
soldiers’ and sailors' oounoll. There
seems to be little discipline among the
Ibt.
IGNORE OFFICERS
The tnen took very little notice of
anything their officers said to them.
One shouted: "No officer—no Kaiser."
Some of the Germans were exceed
ingly anxious to air such English as
they possessed, while others suppressed
their accomplishments in that dire’
tion with equal care. One German of
ficer, who was inclined to be commun
icative. attached himself to the cor
respondent and said he worked in Lon
don before the war. Ife added.

the place shopld go to some member of

department, Postmaster General Burleson
and Secretary Lane of the interior de
partment, are likely to be considered.
had thorough knowledge
There was a possibility that the di
rectorship might have gone to Mr. Baker
at the time the President decided to
give it to Mr. McAdoo. It was thought
that government operation of the rail
roads as a war measure was closely con
nected with the military programme, but
the President chose Mr. McAdoo because
of his knowledge of transportation prob
lems.
Postmaster General Burleson already is
operating the telegraph, telephone and
cable lines under government control.
Secretary I^ane is intimately versed in
transportation problems, particularly
railroads, and for _ years was a
member of the interstate commerce com
mission and at one time chairman.
Walker D. Hines, assistant director
general of railroads, formerly a New
York lawyer and chairman' of the board
o’f the Santa; Fe, has been intimately
connected with the development of gov
ernment operation and is among those
discussed in Washington tonight as a
possible successor to Mr. McAdoo as di
rector general.
Mr. McAdoo made the announcement
of his retirement at one of his weekly
conferences with a score of newspaper
men tonight in his private office at the
treasury. The men for tin hour laid
been discussing with him d^estions Con
cerning future policies of the treasury
and railroad administration and were
about to arise to. leitfe when Mr. Mc
Addo. seated at his desk, remarked
casually:

AIRMEN'S FLIGHT

- I
Col. Culver Developed De
vice, Used at Front, for
Communicating With
Planes in Flight
Washington, November ??.—Through
a radio telephone installed on the
soutV. portico of the White House,
President Wilson today directed the
maneuvers of half a dozen army air
planes flying over the Potcmac liver
several miles away.
The telephone as used today was ad
justed for three to five or six miles.
It is similar* to the instruments used
by American aviators in France, the
secret of which was disclosed after
the armistice was signed.
Col. C. C. Culver is credited in the
department of military aeronautics
with having been the active agent in
the development of the device
"It was in August, lilO, that I first
became interested in the possibility of
sending messages from airplanes,”
Colonel Culver said today, "and com
menced a series of experiments willed
were so far successful that in August,
1818, I was enabled to send a radio
telegraph message from a plane over
Chatsworth, Cal., to tan Diego, a dis
tance of 140 miles.
TOOK SETS TO FRANCE
“In February, 1917, after we had en
listed the assistance of the foremost
American telephone companies and
their expert acoustical men, we suc
ceeded in transmuting voctvl messages
from a plane to the prouric'. In Oc
tober, 1917, 1 took the first sots to
France, and made demonstrations there.
By August 20C complete sets had been
sent to our forces in France and our
whole effort war being devoted to the
complete utilization of the possibili
ties in the offensive we expected next
spring. i
"Nobody invented nnvihing new in
applying the radio telephone to mili
tary airplanes. What was done was
the adaption and adjustment of pre
viously discovered laws to a new' field.”
Only stjpad and flight leaders have
tlirl!' plniu's equipped with transmit
ters, so that they may give orders, as
a power plant is lei.uived to generate
current. The receiving apparatus,
which is very light, can he installed on
all planes. The visible portion of the
radio sets resemble almost exactly th
ordinary telephone receiver and trans
mitter. Colonel Culver pit dieted that
the telephone would prove a valuable
comment aftd the little map aw! paper
bestrewn office which has served as the
secretary’s workroom for more than five
years was still until Mr. McAdoo, in his
usual tone, exp Ip ned further:
"Copies of the correspondence with the
President will explain the reason why I
have been compelled to take this action,
and there, isn’t any other reason why I
did it."
Just a few ltiinutes before the press
conference, Mr. McAdoo had called in
His treasury advisers and broken the
news to them.
Utmost surprise was expressed by his
co-workers. There had been only one
rumor recently of the possibility of Mr.
McAdoo's resignation, and that was to
the effect that he might be appointed
Secretary of War. while Secretary Balter
went to Europe as the President’s emis
sary.
That report was specifically denied at
the time, when It was said that Mr.
McAdoo had no immediate intention of
quitting1 either as Secretary of the Treas
ury nor as director general of rail
roads.
SALARY $12,000
Mr. McAdoo receives $12,000 a year as
Secretary of the Treasury, the uniform
salary of cabinet members, and nothing
as director general of railroads. His
family expenses are known to have been
heavy in the last few years, although
since the war he has taken almost no part
in the little capital society that re
mained. Repeatedly the secretary has
referred to small salaries of govern
ment officials, though he did not refei
to his own case.
In fixing the salaries of his assistants
in the administration he allowed heads
of divisions $25,000 a year, and even the
minor assistants received $12,000 or
$16,000.
Secretary McAdoo is the fourth mem
ber of Ih© cabinet to resign. William
Jennings Bryan, the President’s Secre
tary of State at the beginning of bis
administration, was the first, and Lind
ley M. Garrison, Secretary of War, was
the second. James C. McReynolds, At
torney General, resigned to take an ap
pointment in the supreme court. Aside
fiom these three changes the President’s
cabinet stands the same as it did six
years ago and his friends say he has
taken a great deal of pride in referring
to it as a team. At the opening of his
second term the President asked all the
members to remain.
ROSE VERY EAST
The rise of Mr. McAdoo to a place of
Influence In the administration, which
manr hive declared was second only to
the President, was very fast. As a
southern lawyer who had been Interested
In transportation schemes in southern ]
cities, he went to Ifcw York and ac
complished the then almost unbelievable 1
feat of successfully tunneling the Hud
son river for electric trains. One of the
first men to suggest the scheme—if not
actually the first—was adjudged a luna
tic, and he lived to see the project an ac
complished fact. His name has been for
gotten in the success of the achievement.
When Mr. Wilson, then governor of
New Jersey, became a presidential prob
ability, Mr. McAdoo was practically un
known to him. But Mr. McAdoo took a
leading part in his campaign as vice
chairman of the democratic national
committee, and much of the time as act
ing chairman, and also as chairman of
the finance committee. The President
elect chose him for Secretary of the
Treasury.
At the outset of the President’s first
term it was a pastime of observers
of public affairs to refer to “the strong
men of the cabinet," generally speak
ing of two or three. It is no reflection
on Mr. McAdoo to say that his name was
not then so early included, but it soon
became so. It was no secret that the
President depended upon his advice and
judgment more and more on affairs
which ranged outside the treasury. He
soon began taking a prominent part in
shaping the administration’s legislative
policies and he invariably had the back
ing of the President. Possibly that
brought him into the fBlcl of demo
cratic presidential possibilities when
they were being discussed, but so far as
anyone knows Mr. McAdoo never has
expressed himself on that subject, but
has devoted his attention to serving his
chief.
It has been well known in Washing
ton that Mr. McAdoo, a man of compara
tively small personal fortunes, has felt
that sooner or later he must replenish
his resources. Friends at various times
have expressed some apprehension for
his health, for he has been an inde
fatigible worker and while the duties
of Secretary of the Treasury in times
of world war probably would have taxed
the health and energy of anyone, he did
not hesitate to take on the railroad ad
ministration and found time besides to
take a prominent place in the Presi
dent’s councils on other subjects. While
on a recent trip in the west he fell from
a horse and broke a rib, but his friends
say that had no effect whatever on
his general health.
FACED BIG PROBLEMS
Since the European war broke out in
the fall of 1914, Mr. McAdoo's depart
ment has faced many big economic
problems. Lately the tremendous Lib
erty Loans, and eorrollary problems
of firrancing war expenses, have been
his principal concerns. It was Mr.
McAdoo who stood out strongly against
all treasury advisers in May,’ 1917, and
maintained that $2,000,000,000 was not
too much to ask the American people
to give in a single loan. Others argued
that $500,000,000, or at most $1,000,000,
000, was enough.
As a leading builder of the federal
reserve system, an early advocate of
a great government built merchant ma
rine, and a developer of closer commer
cial and financial relations between the
United States and Latin-American re
publics was another subject in which
he was interested.
He played a prominent part in pre
paring the income tax law, which re
placed the tariff as a principal source
of revenue five years ago, and in de
veloping measures to permit flexible
financial arrangements to tide the na
tion over rough periods of financial his
tory during the war. He placed gov
ernment funds in banks of the west and
south to facilitate the movement of
crops, and later arranged the distribu
tion of government funds more uni
formly throughout the country.
OBTAINED SPECIAL LAWS
Four days after the European war
started, Mr. McAdoo uslted and obtained
special legislation to permit the .issu
ance of $50U,000,OjDO of emergency cur
rency through nationil banks to tide
l the nation over this critical period. He
[also recommended enactment of the
measure permitting the government to
write war risk insurance on ships and
cargoes and lives of seamen, and the
bureau administering this latter took
charge of paying allotments and allow
ance checks to dependents of soldiers
and sailors and the administration of
government life insurance for these
men.
Mr. McAdoo's department had charge
of the collection of if 1,000,000,000' in
taxes last year, and the raising of near
ly $18,000,000,000 in Liberty Bonds and
War Savings within the las-t 1, months
About $8,000,00(1,000 in loans to allies
have been distributed at his .discretion
since the United States entered the war.
He also was the directing spirit of the
capital issues committee, the .war
'finance corporation, and other war time
treasury agencies.
Mr. McAdoo was married May 7, 1914,
to Eleanor Randolph Wilson, daughter
of the President, in the White House.
They have one daughter. Mr. McAdoo
also has three sons and three daughters
by his former marriage. The three sons
are now serving in the navy.

sirens hiic! the ringing of church and
school bells.
The Eighteenth infantry of the First
division were the first American troops
to enter the city.
The Americ&ns were greeted by
thousands of civilians, who lined ail
the streets through which the troops
marched. School children tossed flow
ers In their pathway, and each soldier
was presented with a bouquet of chrys
anthemums
General Parkers’ visit to -rentier
Emil Reuter and his presentation to
the members of the cabinet brought
assurance that the government was in
thorough accord with the Americans.
There was evident a spirit of heartfelt
relief that the Germans had gone, (t
was arranged that the ministers of
state and the municipal authorities
should continue their functions, the
Americans’ part in affairs being noth
ing more than to make Luxemburg a
link in the line of communication and
to stand prepared to maintain order.
When the Germans left the city of
Luxemburg, General Parker stood on
an embankment watching them. A
German general, mounted on a big
white horse, far below but not many
blocks distant, viewed the same move
ment The troops filed past the Ger
man commander rapidly, the men
apparently being in the best of hu
mor. A bajid was playing and tho
scene resembled peace-time maneuvers
rather than the movement of war. The
j discipline of the men was not broken
enough to interfere with the keeping
up of a military march, "hut it was
evident that the spirit of the Germans
was far from that which makes for
; war.
i The people of Luxemburg made elab
orate preparations to receive the Amer
icans. Almost every building flew the
Luxemburg flag, with here and there
an American banner, and every once in
a while a picture of President Wilson
could be seen, almost always coupled
with that of Marshal Foeh.
Some 40 societies had made plans to
participate In the parade of the Amer
icans and late Wednesday night a band
was haard in a last rehearsal of lha
music ft expected to Play today.
The keenest interest was manifectod
1 by the civilians, who eagerly quea
I Honed every American as to the roflte
| and exact time of the march into the
j city. The cittiens ralted up school
book English, which thev used freely
I on evervone wearing khaki.
PERSHING’S PROCLAMATION
General Pershing issued a proclama
i tion shortly after the entry of the
i Americans which ssld:
"After the four years of violation of
your territc -v the Grand Duchy of
Luxemburg has happiy been liberated.
Your liberation from German occuoa*
tion liaH been demanded of the lnvau- ■
era by the armies of the Americans arid
the allies as one of the conditions of
tlie present armistice. It becomes nec
essary now for the American troops to
pass through the Grand Duchy of Lux
emburg and to establish and maintain
there for a certain time their lines of
communication.
"The American troops have come
into the Grani Duchy of Duxembuig
as friends and shall rigorously conduct
themselves according to international
law. Their presence, which shall not he
prolonged more than shall be strictly
necessary, should not be for you a ,
hardship.
"The functioning of your government ;
and your institutions shall not be in
terfered with in any manner. Your j
life and your occupations shall not be
molested. Your persons and your wel
fare shall be respected. i
"It will be necessary for the Ameri- i
can army to use certain things, rail- j
roads, telegraph and telephones, and
perhaps other public establishments
for the needs of lodging and trans
port: furthermore the commodities ,
which are necessary for us shall be !
paid for after just estimates.
"It is presumed you will not permit
any acts of aggression against the :
American army or give any informa- !
tion f>r aid to its enemy. You will ai- I
[ ways conform to the instructions that
the American commander for the safe
ty of his troops and your proper pro
tection may give."
YANKS ARE WELCOME
Luxemburg, November 22.—(By the
Associated Press.)—Incidental to the j
reception of the American forces in [
this Grand Duchy a proclamation i&- i
sued by the national union, one of the !
political parties, was posted througn- i
out the capital. It read:
“To our deliverers, the glorious
troops of the entente and America:
“The people of Luxemburg bid you ■
welcome. Oft the 2d of August, 1911, j
i Germany forfeited her honor by vio- \
I lating her solemn engagements re j
I yarding Luxemburg. The government •
then in power did nothing with the I
exception of protesting against the vij
latlon of the territory, whereas the
people wanted to break all relations j
with the invaders.
“Suffering insuperable humiliations, |
the population has disdainfully reject- j
ed all offers of conciliation coming I
from its oppressors. We know our j
country has been caluminated and thar ,
our people have been basely accused of j
connivance with the enemy.
“Luxemburgers protest energetically ]
agafn^t any accusation casting doubt ;
on the sincerity of their attitude dur- j
ing the world war.
“The reception of your troops will
be the best proof of the purity of our
aspirations and of our sympathy. Wo
know that, in conformity with the
principles which have been proclaimed
bv the allied governments and for
which you have fought, our indepen- !
denee will be maintained, our rights 1
consecrated, our treaties respected and
our liberty consolidated.
“The blood of its children which
flowed with your own in the sublime
cause of liberty authorizes our people
to express these wishes. It heartily
desires to be allowed by your vic
torious armies to keep this, device ‘we
want to remain what we are.’
“May its deliverers dispel its appre- j
hensions. It will have for them eternal
gratitude.
