BANS THE "AuTo MAsHER.r
Sioux City Police Matron Calls Them
"GirIs' Worst Foe."

Sioux City, July 23.-Combination OF
roadhouse dangers with the lure OF the
automobile for young girls is credited
by Police Matron Anna Roberts with
causing many Sioux City girls to "go
wrong"
The fact that girls are Just crazy
to ride in cars particularly was
lamented by Matron Roberts.
Automobiles are raising havoc with
the young people, she said. The girls
are SO eager to ride in the machines
that they grow rapidly careless as to
whom they are riding with. Often they
go with men they do not know at all
What then can be expected?
The automobile masher" is the
greatest of all dangers to girls, ac-
cordine to the police matron. They
prey upon girls who do not have
luxurious homes, who have little OF
the expensive sort of pleasure, and
who, therefore, jump recklessly at the
chance for good time, she declared.
Part of the blame belongs upon
parents, according to Mrs. Roberts.
Many parents place too much trust In
their children, and others feel no sense
Of responsibility, she asserted.

Fire Landu.

The phrase fire lands" originated in 8 passage of early history, which also gave rise to the term "Western re- serve" After the Revolutionary war,
 when the colonies consented to cede their claims to western lands to con- gress, Connecticut reserved from her cession a tract embracing a large part of northern Ohio. The tract thus re- served included the present counties of Trumbull, Geauga, Portage and Ash tabula and became known as the west ern reserve. It was settled chiefly by emigrants from Connecticut and was sometimes called New Connecticut, Tn promoting the settlement of the land Connecticut reserved half a mil. lion acres from the western end of the tract for bestowal upon her citizens who had suffered losses during the war, and the lands embraced in this special reserve were called sufferers lands" and later fire lands" because most of the sufferers had been losers by fire. In early times the phrase fire lands" was sometimes used in deeds in describing the location of land in the tract referred to. - Philadelphia Press.

SHIP In WAR ZONE

New York, May 1.-THE liner
Transatlantic, which the German gov
ernment in a semiOfficial statement
Wednesday declared was subject to

zone today. She is due in Liverpool
Sunday. The Pennsylvania carries 879
passengers including many Americans
and a number of British reservists.
The Pennsylvania sailed from New
York Saturday. Although new, she is
not a very fast ship. She is under
charter to the Cunard line from the
Anchor line. Her commander, John
Black, is commodore captain of the
Anchor line, and is considered a very
able seaman.
The Pennsylvania averages 5 knots,
but can go up to 18 if occasion de-

be infested with German submarines,

WON'T FIGHT FOR U. S.
socialists Vote Not to Take Part in
War Against Germany.

Chicago, May 14.-Socialists in the
national gathering at the Hotel Sher-
man have refused to get excited over a
possible war between the United States
and Germany. They have voted to
refuse to take part in such war. AT
the same time they voted down n
resolution calling upon capitalists
alone to support this country in the
event war was declared.
They also repudiated plan offered
by Delegate Goebel of Newark to Sc
lect their future executive officers by
limiting the number of candidates to
twice the number to be elected.
The debate on this question brought
charges that Delegate Goebel, who
also acted as chairman of the meeting
for a time had entered into cabal to
deprive the membership of the Social
ist organization of the right to vote.
Victor Berger, who led the fight
against the adoption of the anti-war
resolution, was the leader in the fight
against what he claimed was move
to deprive the rank and file of the So
cialist party of their rights. His fight
resulted in the tabling of the PROPOSE
ton and the decision of the conven-
ton to continue under the old consti-
tuition and bylaws.

ELEMENTS THAT MAY
Make FOR WARFARE

Positive assertion of Gernlany's
military element that the SuDma-
rine reign of terror is essential to
GernanyS ultimate triumph.
Possibility that a reversal of
the submarine policy at Ameri-
cas- demand should be construed
as "a violation of the German ma
tiOnal honor.
Suggestion that Germany faces
annihilatiOn, anyhow, unless she
can shut off the allies amIDuni-
ton supply and belief that an ad-
ditiOnaI enemy, DO matter how
powerful, would not make any
real difference.
General belief throughout Ger
many that the submarine policy
is the only answer Germany can
give England to her starvation
campaign.
Desire of the military element
not to surrender the policy of
terrorism which after all has had
a powerful moral effect on the
allies.

PRESS PRAISES PRESIDENT

President Wilson's note to Ger
many is editorially commenced on
throughout the United States today
with distinct praise and appreciation.
Excerpts from editorials of some of
the leading newspapers, as indeXing
American sentiment, follow:
NEW YORK TIMES-It IS the great
diplomatic achievement of the note
that it puts upon Germany the
choice not only of what her reply
shall be, but of what is to follow
The presidents eloquent appeal to
20 her great ira ditiOnS, to her sense OF
honor, and of justice must triumph
over any warlike inclination she
may feel to pursue a course that
can have but one ending.
NEW YORK TRIBUNE-He (the
president) has drawn an indictment
against the German nation which
will lie for all ages to come If the
kaiser's government fails to meet
the demands OF the president of
the United States promptly and
completely. Wronged, we have Of
fered Germany a peaceful solution
in the present crisis, but-ard the
we shall omit neither word nor
act necessary to the performance of
our sacred duty.
NEW YORK HERALD-It might
have been stronger, it might have
been weaker, it will serve Mr.
Wilson has overcome the influence
of those members of his cabinet
who are for peace at any price He
has lived up to the very best ira
ditiOnS of his character

NO ACTION TAKEN
BY ARMY-NAvY

One thing that was en-
phatic at the war and navy
departments was that no eff
forts were being made to get
either branch of the service
on a war footing. The navy
is obviously far better pre-
pared for an emergency than
usual, in that the Atlantic
fleet is modified at New
York, with complete person
mel, with ,>unkers filled and
with ammunition magazines
crammed.
Neither army nor navy is
turning a wheel, however, be-
yond the regulation routine
that would be necessary if the
country's foreign affairs were
not in a cordial state.

Cabinet Passive Pending Re-

Washington, May 1.-THE cabinet
met today in a regular session, but
no action was contemplated pending
the receipt of Germany'S reply to
President Wilson's note. The president
took a short automobile ride before
the meeting. He will leave late to-
night on the yacht Mayflower for New
York to review the Atlantic fleet next
week.
During the trip, which will last
nearly a week, the president will keep
in touch with every development in
the situation, but only important mat
terS will be placed before him.

CAPPER SAYS WILSON'S
DEMANDS ARE REASONARL LE

President Wilson's demands on
Germany are reasonable and will
be approved by the nation. This
is the belief of GOV. Arthur Cam
per. In statement he says:
The country will fully aDproye
both of the substance of the Dresi
dents firm and powerful note to
Germany and the moderation and
courtesy with which the president
frames il. The note is all The more
Impressive because of its temDerafe
and restrained language and its
spirit of fricndlincsS and of coufi
dencc i'll the ultimate Justice and
good will of the German govern
ment. Less than the president has
said in this mOmentOuS deiiyerance
to the German government yyouId
not have satisfied the sense of the
great grievance that is suffered i'm
the whole ubma rine warfare moi
icy of Germany'S navy. and more
is not required to maintain Amer
lean national prestige and seIf-rc-
Spect before the world. All Ameri-
cans Will hope that the German
government will meet the reasons
able demands set forth in the note
and make more drastic defensive
measures unnecessary

WHAT WILL THE KAISER D0?.
ELEMENTS THAT MAY
make FOR u. S. PEACE

Desire on Germany's part not
to alternate powerful neutral
countries whose influence MAY be
needed at the1end of the war.
Long standing friendship of
Germany for the United States,
admittedly cOncurred in by En-
peror William.
Desire not to give neutral ma
tiOnS contiguous to Germany
reason for siding with GerInany's
enemies.
Desire not to ALLEVIATE SyInpa-
thy and support of more than
100000 of German birth or
heritage.
Belief that by cOnceding jus
tice to Americas position, this
cOuntry's sympathy can be swung
over to the German cause.
