GREAT GROWTH SHOWN.
President James Tells of Develop.
ment Of Illinois University.

NEW YORK, April 3.-Chancellor Henry
NJ. MacCracken of New York University
and President Edmund J. James of the
University of Illinois were the guests Of
honor at the sixth annual banquet of the
Illinois University Alumni Of New York.
held here at the Hotel Manhattan to-

LACKS THE men TO MAN Them
BERLIN'S VIEW OF BRITA1N'S
PROPOSED BATTLESHIPS.
Shortcoming of King Edwards Navy
Is Declared Well Known to
German Government.
Special Cablegram to The Star


BERLIN. April 3.-German naval eH-
perts are by no means deeply impressed
by the British naval estimates The con-
viction exists here that the number oil
new ships to be laid down by England
during the coming financial year barely
suffices to maintain the two-power stand
ard. No serious significance is attached
to the announcement that four more
Dreadnoughts may possibly. under Ger
tain circumstances. be laid down, because
this clause is regarded as a worthless
concession to British public opinion.
which demands the absolute maintenance
of naval supremacy at all costs.
These provincial terms for more
Dreadnoughts are regarded as d clever
device to soothe the conscience of those
liberals who realize that the shipbuildinG
In it's original form does not suffice u
SAFEGUARD the national interests.
According to the information of Ger
man experts. the weakness of the British
naval program for the year lies in its
failure to provide trained crews to man
the new battleships. The opinion prevails
here that while Britain possesses a mag
nificent fleet. built of the finest material
and equipped in every respect in ac-
cordance with t. necessities of modern
warfare, she has not the trained crews
to man them.
