URGED EVERY ABLE-BODIED
BRITON TO JOIN THE
C0L0RS.
Says Navy Has Already Done Its
Part in the Great
Struggle.

LONDON, Sept 4-5:53 p. MI
Premier Asquith today made the first
of series Of appeals for an increase
Of the British land forces. At "a meet
ing at Guild hoIl he describes the
empire as involved iu bloody ar
bitramcnt of might versus right and
urged every ablc-bodied Brton Of
military age TO join the colors.
The navy the premier indicated, al
ready was doing its part II had scaled
up the fleet Of Germany he said, and
was thirsty for trial Of strength in
the open.
British worshjps, Mr. Asquith said,
had hunted she German merchant
marine from the high seas and when
the few German cruisers, winch SUN
infested the distant ocean had been
disposed Of. as they would DE very
soon, the navy would have achieved
for British and neutral commerce a
security as complete as ii ever had
eujuyed i'm days Of uubroken peace.
I'VE rely upon the navy he SAID,
with the most absolute confidence to
guard our shores against the possl-
biuty of invasion and 10 seal up the
gigantic battcships of the enemy in
ingloriuus soCluSlon Of their own ports
with murdeTous suares which are
more fun of menace TO neutral ship
piug than 10 the British fleet. and
while the British navy does all this,
il is thirsty for a trial Of strength

far prudcntly denied it,

NEW YORK. sept 4.-Dielal Bey,
Ottoman consul general at New York.
late today issued a statement denying
Russian reports that Armeniaus had
refused 10 serve under Turkish colors
and that fighting between Armen-
ians and Turks had occurred. The
statement reads:
Another rumor emanating from
st Petersburg that Armenians and
Kurds. who have been called To the
colors in Turkey have refused to
serve. has no foundation and a fur
thoT statement has been published
saving that an armed clash has taken
place at some place unnamed be
tween Turks and Armenlans Is
equally unfounded. There is no rea-
son to believe that any such disor-
ders have taken place in any part
Of Turkey"
