II was reiterated that President VIII

eYnected TO reach the United States
early tomorrow morning.
Dispatch Sent 10 President.
Ambassador Gerard's message was
sent before he had examined the note
itself. It's meaning was not entirely
clear because Of errors in Transmission

was clearly indicated that in the future
Germany intended to SINK without

they were armed for purposes OF OF

merchantmen had instructions to at

The position Of the United States Is
that merchant ships have a right 70

The only hope OF avoiding an

1t has been estimated that there
were $4,000 leper houses in Europe
at the time. Leprosy was the great
social problem Of Europe. The lep-
er had no civil rights, no occupa-
ton but to die while he lived and
live till he died, and the appearance
of the first leprous spot automati-
cally decreed degradation.
Casual interest in the fate OF
the leper developed into fervent
and whole-souled devotion to the
physical and spiritual welfare of the
outcast.
Juliana had not completed her
fifteenth year when she renowned
her ample Inheritance and was the
first to receive the religious habit

cholera, and plague, remaining stead

recognition among the worlds great.

hospitals established by them are
forts for the defense of public health.
We trust that every citizen of Rusk

and most righteous war in the world:
Other wars are selfish and blood

guish between wholly war and holy
