A VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN PLANNED

Monday marked the oficial begin
ming OF Michigan's 100000 war on
tuberculosis. To rid the state OF this
disease--that and nothing less than
that is the object OF the State Board Of
Health. They do not expect that this
will be done in two years, or Ave
years. but during the next two years
they hope to build up an organization
in each county in the state that will be
able 10 carry on the work indefinitely.
The first county TO be visited is wex-
ford Next in order will be Barry and
Ottawa In each case DR. DeKleine
and HIS helpers will spend one. two
or three weeks in county trying TO
interest the people in their immediate
health problem.
Every campaign will include an at
tempt TO locate each case OF tubercu-
losis within the county and having
nurses visit these patients in their
homes to instruct them on how TO live
and how TO get well. II will include
moreover a complete sanitary survey
OF the county. which will be invalu-
able as an index 10 what the real
health conditions are. Moreover. the
physicians Of each county will be ask
ed to cooperate with the agents OF the
state Board Of Health. II Is with the
aid OF the physicians that DR.. De-
Kleine and his helpers hope to locate
the eases Of tuberculosis in given
county not only. but Il Is they who can
carry on the work after the state
board workers have passed on to an
other place. During tho campaign in

 The sGuhii8ht was then steering about true east, steanairass about eight miles an hour, flying a large Amert- can ensign, size 6 feet by 10 feet. The wind was about south, about eight. miles an hour in force. personally observed our flag was standing sout well to the breeze. Hmm ediately after seeing the submarine I went aft and notified the crew and came back and went on the bridge and heard the cap- tain make the remark that it5 must be 2. British submarine, as the patrol boats took no notice of it. About 12:5o an explosion took place in the Gull flight, on the bluff of the starboard bow. sending vast quantities of water high in the air, coming down on the bridge and shutting everything off from our view. After the water cleared away, our ship had sunk by the head so that the sea was washing over. the fore deck, and the ship appeared to be sinking.
 Immediately after went aft to see to the boats. On nv way q saw
 one man pwerboards on the zstarboard l side The water. at thai time was

 picked up by the patrol vessel Iago
 and were advised by her crew to leave

 came on prevented us getting into the
 harbor that night
 ! About 2:3O in the morning follow ling I saw Capt. Alfred, Gunter, master of the GuIhight, who had been sleep ing in the room of the skipper of the Iago, standing ein the room with a queer look on his face I asked him I what his trouble was and he made no reply Then he reached for the side lof the berth with his hands but did not take hold. I went into the room,

MURDER" SAYS BRITISH
 OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON
 SINKING OF THE LUslTANIA

Tt was not understood from. the reply of2the German Government that they were prepared to abandon the principle of sinking British vessels by submarine.
 They have refused to abandon the use of mines for offensive purposes on the high seas on any condition. They have committed various other infractions of inteFnational law, such as strewing the high seas trade routes with mines. and British and neutral vessels will continue to run danger from this course whether Germany abandons her blockade or not
 ttIt should be noted that since the employment of submarines contrary to international law, the Germans all so have been guilty of the use of as- phyxiating gas. They have even pro ceeded to the poisoning of water in South Africa.
 The Germans represent British merchant vessels generally as armed with guns, and say that they repeat edly ram submarines. The answer to this is as follows:
 "It is not to be wondered at that merchant vessels, knowing they are liable to be sunk without warning and without any chance being given those on board to save their lives, should take measures of self defense With regard to the Lusitania, the ves- se1 was not armed on her last voy- age, and had not been armed during the whole war.
 The Germans attempt to justify the sinking of the Lusitania by the fact that she had arms and ammuni- tion on board. The presence of con- traband on board a neutral vessel does render her liable to capture, but certainly not to destruction with the loss of a large number of her crew and paSsengers
 Every enemy vessel is a fair prize but there is no legal provision, not 1 to speak of. the principles of humanity which would Justify what can only be described as murder. because a vessel 1 carries contraband.
 1 .The Germans maintain that after Erepeated official and unofficial warn l fngs His Majesty's government were responsible for the loss of life, as they l considered themselves able to declare that the boat ran no risk and thus light-heartedly assumed the respon l sibility for the human lives on board { steamer which owing to it's arna- l Inent and cargo, is liable to destruc I ton.
 '.The reply thereto is:
 First: His Majesty's Governmen l never declared the boat ran no risk T second: The fact that the Ger
 mans issued their warning shows tha
 the crime was prem editated. The had no more right to murder passen gers after warning them than before
 tsThird: In spite of their attempt to put the blame on Great Britain,
 will tax the ingenuity even of the Ger
 mans to explain away the fact that i
 was a German torpedo, fired by German seaman froms a German sub
 marine, that sank the vessel and caus led over one thousand deaths

ALF. AMMAN SAYS
 ilC. F" DIED POOR

New ork, May 12AAlf Hayuaan, general manager for the late Charles Frohman and his friend for thirty seven years, Joined with others yes- terday in an appreciation of and a tri- blIte to the private and professional life of the deceased man. Among other things MT. Hayman said that MT. Frohrpan died "a comparatively poor man and never wanted mon ney.'
 T first met c. F. in Philadelphia thirty seven years ago., said MT. Hay man. s'He was treasurer of Haverly' S Afinstrels. was the advance agent for MT. and Mrs. w. J. Florence. The tCoIonnade Hotel, at the corner of Fifteenth and Chestnut streets, at that time was the swell hotel of PhiI- adeiphia. In the course of a walk one day we stopped in front of the hotel, and e. F. said: Some day I hope to have money enough to stop at the, Colonnade.' He never forgot this and whenever we went to Phila- l delphia together he would always in sists on our walking up to the hotel, Hook at it and recall the conversa- ton. { 4zq

IN LONDON PRAISE PRESIDENT
 ON STAND IN CRISIS

London. May 12.-Most of the morn ing papers fail to comment editoraally on President Wilson's Philadelphia speech The Standard, however, pra1s- es the address and says the President has shown during these trying weeks -of German insults a moral courage Of the highest order.
 .'It is rather satisfactory" the stan dard continues, ito note the calm and pacific tome of President Wilson's first public utterance since the disaster, for no interest of ours would be served by
 Americas entrance into the4wa and such a development might in many ways iI1ure to the eneny's advantage" " The Express offers the opinion that the speech was too idea1istfc and adds:
 we understand, of course, that to turn the other cheek requires exalted courage but it is unfortunate such a course is absolutely certain to lead to more suffering. Germany has taken the world back to the 14th century;
 President Wilson is eager to drag us before our time into the s22nd. Nobody in this country, however, has any de- sire that the United States be involved 1 in this war unless impe11ed by it's own pride
 The Mail. prints a column of inter views with prominent Americans in London, all expressing disappointment that the Presfdent's Philadelphia ad- dress did not include a forceful de- inunciation of Germany's action

MEN AS TRUE HEROES,
 SURVIVORS SAY

Queenstown, May 12.-American gallantry, courage and heroisn was fuIlys upheld by the men aboard the Lusitania. As the scattered ends of the survivors stories are being picked there is much evidence to show that not one American man got into the boats until after he had been thrown into the water. Then some were picked up and saveu. Calmly ana with utmost courage they helped women and children into the boats an dthens stood aside awaiting the end.
 There was a great scarcity of life belts, and the American men who were fortunate enough to get them handed them over to the women and children.
 When the Lusitania was in her death throes there were no cooler persons aboard than Alfred -Gwynne vanderbilt, Charles Frohman, Herbert s. Stone I1ndon w. Bates, Jr.; Mime. Marie de Page and Dr. J. T. Hough- ton. They guided women and chill dren to the boats, found life belts for them and bound up the wounds of injured passengers. pr. Houghton was the only one of this group td survive.

 He has paid millions of dollars to authors without the scratch of a pen and never had a, dispute or a lawsuit with them or with anybody over a business transaction
 'fC~ F. died comparatively a poor man. He never wanted money. When upbraided on this point he would say: T when I die can do so with the love and respect of all my stars. all my authors, all my associates. all my employees and my creditors then I will not have lived in vain. '
 Relations With His Stars
 His greatest delight was the morn ing wires he would receive each morn ing bn his arrival at the office from daily communication with them.
 cit lis doubtful if any man in the theatrical business ever lived who gave away as much money to charity as c. F. When he had an appHca- ton of any kind from a professional would insist on sending them some 1 thing and he would never let any one know, not even me, who the recipient would be.
 q said to him one day. Do you know ydu are not doing right in send ing all the people money WhO write and tell you they are in hard luck, be- cause they may be imposing on you ? His reply was: There may be some that are imposing, but I know there are others in, want, so I can't afford to make a, mistake
 Two of the worst fpenmen I think I've ever known are C.. F. and James M. Barrie. They always correspond l ed in long hand. c. B. would send for me and ask if I. could make out what Barrie was writing him, and Barrie used to write me- to3 ask; if couldn't get c.

TROOPS CALLED OUT TO QUELL WAR RIOTS
 IN STREETS OF ROME

Rome, May 12.-Troops were call ed out last night to disperse a great crowd of war enthusiasts who paraded the principal streets crying Down with Austria! Down with Giolitti!' and cheering for Premier Salandra and Minister of Foreign Affairs Co., nino.
 Most of the persons in the throng apparently felt the greatest animosity toward Former Premier .Giolitti, who is regarded as the leader of the peace party. An attempt was made to storm his residence, but it was frus- trated by soldiers The crowd jeered as it passed the German ecclesiastical college.
 Demonstrations similar to that in the capital are occurring in the larg- CT towns throughout the country. The clashes with those who favor neu- traIity have been prevented several times by the intervention of troops. Exceptional precautions have bean taken by the authorities of Rome to protect diplomats accredited both 60 the querina1 and the Vatican
