Should Episcopal Clergyman
Be Permitted to Enlist in the English Army?

Correspondence Of the Associated Press,
LONDON, Jan. Is. -- The petition
which over a thousand curates in
London are presenting to the bishop
of London brings to a fresh stage the
question as to whether clergymen of
the established church (Episcopalian)
should be allowed to enlist. Accord
ing to the established rule of the
Anglican church. clergymen are for
bidden to serve in the fighting forces
except as chaplains or noncombatants.
The clergymen signing the petition to
the bishop are of military age ana
would have enlisted long ago, they
say. but for violating the law of the
church.
A discussion has been carried on in
the open letter columns of the news
papers for some time in this regard.
OppOsition to enlistment by the arch
bishop of Canterbury and the various
bishops on the theory that by ordi-
ration the clergyman is dedicated for
ever to Gods service. and that the
profession of a soldier is incompata-
bic with the priesthood. This finds
some support in the church and the
laiety. But the more popular point
of view is that there are wars often
based on Righteousness, and self-sac-
rifice for a righteous cause is one Of
the ideals of the church.
They tell their people every day.
writes the rector of Stockbridse In
regard to the clergy. that every man
who offers himself as a soldier saves
the lives of many of his countrymen;
Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1916-01-23

it is therefore necessary, if more and
more lives are to be saved, that more
and more men must offer. We are
also preaching that this is a right
eOus war"
He then asks:
should not the clergy lead in the
promotion of righteousness? And if
it is true that by the war the princi-
pie of Righteousness will be more
firmly esta blshed than ever before, is
not that work fit for a priest, or even
a bishop
The clergymen signing the petition
address the following letter to the
bishop of London:
We, the signatories of this letter,
believing that the needs Of our coun-
try demand the most efficient utiliza-
tiOn of the nations resources, re-
spectfully request your lordship to
l. Consider the possibility of so
recognizing the work of the diocese
as will permit of the largest number
of clergy being set free for whole or
part time for work directly in con-
nection with the war.
.. Invite all clergy of military age
to offer themselves for those branches
of national service for which your
lordship deems them suitable. and to
undertake whatever work may, in ac-
cording with this action, be allotted
them
8. Consider If it be not possible to
waive the rule which at present pro-
hibits clergy from serving in the COM
batant ranks.

French Deficit in Bottles
Grows Larger; Glass Works Are Lying Idle

Correspondence Of The Associated Pre,s)
PARIS, January 22-The bottle
deficit Of France to date is about
two hundred and thirty-fNe million,
resulting from the occupation of ter
ritory comprising some of the inn
portaut glass works of the depart
ments Of the north and the depart
meut Of the Marne. The wine and
ether French Industries require about
three hundred and ten million bottles
each year. and the French glass works
produce normally about three hum
dred and twenty-five million, Of which
between ten and fifteen million are
exported. The glass works now I'm
operation produce only about ninety
million bottles year. The conse-
quence is, mineral water bottles that
were purchased before the war at one
cent each now bring a little over two
cents. Lamp Chimueys have trebled
in price as well as gOblets and window
glass Wine bottles containing about
a quart have gone up from 81 TO 81
per hundred, while in the Saumur
district bottles intHuded for naturally

EXPLOSIONS HAVE
BOND OF SYMPATHY
And English Scientists Try to Explain
Reasons for the
phCnOm.

LONDON. Jan. 6. - Among the
many problems Of chemistry regard
ing which war has given increased
opportunities for research is the cur
ious one of sympathetic explosions.
Why is il, ask the eNperImCnters that
the explosion of one mass of com
bustibe will cause the explosion of a
similar mass a considerable distance
away The average layman, If asked
for an explanation, would attribute
the second explosion to shock, acting
like a hammer blow. But an actual
hammer blow Of some force would
not cause most modern explosives TO
20 off. Moreover the shock is soft
ened and in part absorbed by the
earth it travels through, so that the
actual bump could have little effect
on the explosives affected by IT,
one theory that has the support Of
many experts is that the vibrations
set up by the first explosion have the
power to produce definite chemical
actions in similar explosive COM
pounds These vibrations are either
electro-atm ospheric, or something re-
lated to ordinary sound vibrations. II
particles Of iodide of nitrogen, says
one writer are placed on the strings
of a violoncello and another cello is
played nearby as soon as the vibra-
tions reach certain pitch. the iodide

explosion" and suggests q path for
further experimenting.
A second theory is that the shock of
the first explosion is converted into
heat. which results in the second ex-

PEACE SOCIETY OF
JAPS TAKES ACTION
1t Supports Resolutions
Passed by Organiza-
tions in America.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
TOXIC, Dec. 2O-The American
Peace Society of Japan at its annual
meeting on December 16 formally cx-
pressed its support of resolutions
passed recently by the international
Peace Cong ess at San Francisco and
by the laGI Lake Mohonk conference
nn International arbitration The
peace congress resolution was an ap-
peal to adept an immigration policy
based on the just and equitable trea,-
mcnt Of alliances, q policy that will
grant the rights of citizenship, re-
Sardles o. race or nationality, and TO
provide that all aliens should be
under the special protection of the
rational ECNernment.
The Lake Mohonk resolution urged
congress, .u the interest of avoiding
occasions tuf war, to extend the
jurisdiction of the courts of the
United States as to criminal UrOsCcu-
tion for violation of the treaty rights
Of aliens
j. Med. Gardinc:, the president Of
the society urged ceaseless labor in
behalf Of a world peace prOpagandum
"As we look back" he said, "Over the
past year and review the progress Jt
The discussions brought out by the
fearful war still raging in Europe, We
can, | think, take courage hcarteued
by what has undoubtedly favored the
cause we have so much at heart. Even
among peace workers a sentiment has
been Developed which distinctly rec
ognizes the TACT that as nations arc
now related to each other war IS
sometimes unavoidable and even
necessary.
The aim, then, of many is to re-
place relations of suspicion and dis
trust by a tranker intercourse and
u'uer knowledge as soon as possible
rather than to attempt to make war
impossible by any artificial means.
President Gardiner emphasized
what he called the banefulness of
secret diplomacy.
As to the relations between Japan
and the United States, Mr.. Gardiner
said that Americans I'm Japan must
see to it that the United States and
Americans are not misunderstood here
and that Americans at home do not
nisjudge Japan. The Peace society
should be thankful, ne thought, for
the deep interest and activity shown
by organizations Of fellow countrymcn
at home in making Japan better
known ana understood by the dis
tribution Of informative literature.

Fight Ships to Be Built;
Believe in Dread
naught's Ability.
rs A BASIC UNIT
BattIeship Is necessary;
Submarines, However,
Are Effective.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press)
TOXIC, Dec 2S.-Onc supordrcad-
naught. two cruisers, one destroyer
three submarines and two special
service ships constitute the program
Of naval building for Japan for the
coming year. Admiral EatO, minister
for marine. explained the naval eN-
pansion project before the budget
committee of the diet yesterday in
response to an Interpolation. The
batlcship will be about the same type
as the FusO and Yamashiro, which
was recently launched, and will carry
u 14-inch guns and is G-inch guns
The two cruisers will have speed
of % knots. They will probably be
in the nature of light scout ships
Their armament has not yet been
decided. The submarines will have
a displacement of seven hundred tons
each, speed of IS knots on the sur
face and 10 knots in the water, and
will carry one gun,
Believes in Baulcships.
Admiral Kato expressed the opinion
that the war i'm Europe would not
necessitate any considerable altera-
ton in the naval armament of the
great powers. He fully recognized,
he said the effectiveness Of aircraft
and submarines as weapons of Of
fense. as demonstrated i'm the present
war, but he believed that these facts
hardly affected the position Of the
battleships as an engine Of war. If
the kaisers warships dared not VEN
ture from their own sheltered waters
It was because of the powerful British
sQuadrous awaiting them outside. The
absence Of any great naval engage
ment in Europe must be ascribed to
the very great difference between the
Pritish and German navies. As for
submarines, however actively they
might work, their activities were con-
fined within certain limits and they
could hardly be expected to place the
great battlcships hors de combat The
minister said that equipment was now
being provided on ships against air
attacks. He was confident that the
dreadnaught remained the basic unit
Of great navies.
The admiral further said that in
