American army surgeons are con

the fact that they travel at higher
speed and have a far wider range
They are 30 sharp pointed that when
they strike the soft tissues alone they
make clean-cut. narrow wounds which
heal very quickly.
When. however. they take a side

edges through previously striking or

have an explosive effect which pro-

Carnegie, through its secretary, the
Rev. Frederick Lynch, made public
here message which the union has
addressed to ''the churches and clergy

Unions letter is signed by Cardinal
Gibbons of Baltimore, and Archbishop
Glennon, of st. Louis. The president
of the union is the Right Rev. David

Of the striking paragraphs in the let
ter:

of passion which already are too hot.
Clergymen should allay prejudice, not
intensity it. Each of the warning ma
tions believes in the justice of its
cause''

nouncement in the house Of commons
Tuesday afternoon at session which
will be historic. Studiously avoiding
the terms blockade" and contra
band"-for these words occur nowhere
in the prepared statement = the pre-
mier explained that after this day the
allies considered themselves justified
in attempting. and would attempt, to
''detain and take into port ships car
rying goods of presumed enemy destin-
alton, ownership or origin.
The premier emphasized, however.
that vessels and cargoes 80 seized were
not necessarily liable TO confiscation
and begged the patience of neutral
countries in the face Of step through
which they were likely to suffer. He
added that in making such q step the
allies had done so in self defense.
I'VE are quite prepared" he went on,
Ito submit to the arbitrament of neu-
tral opinion and still more to the YER
dict Of impartial history, that in the
in which we have been
placed we have been moderate: we
have been restrained; we have alb
stained from things that we were pro-
voked and attempted to do, and we
have adopted policy which eommends
itself to reason, to common sense and
to justice"
Every member Of the house not at
the front in khaki or unayoidably
detained was in his seat to hear the
prime minister's speech and there was
frequent cheering. The galleries were
packed. When the premier concluded
his set statements and, turning to the
speaker, said, ''That, sir, is our re-
ply, there was a tremendous outburst.
Curiously, the German reply to the
American note seeming to solve the
situation growing out Of Germany's
Of a naval war zone, was
handed to Ambassador Gerard at Ber-
lin and Premier Asquith. in his speech
said that Great Britain and her allies
were carefully considering the Amer
lean note to them on the same subject.
That the British government had re-
jected the proposal, he declared, was
quite untrue. !"
