Baltimore. Md. Jan. I. - Informa-
tion has come to a prominent special
list here from DR. james West. a for
qmer Baltimorean. now a cancer spe-
cialist in Berlin. that the Kaiser is a
victim to that dread disease Two
years ago, when the Kaiser was in
poor health. IL was stated that an
operation would be necessary. The
imperial physician shortly afterward
reported that the Kaiser had improved
and an operation would not be neces-
sary. As a matter of fact the opera
ton had been performed. an ulcer
being removed from the right side of
the larynX. DR.. West was consulted
and advised that the ulcer be burned
out This was done. although DIR.
West did not perform the operation
In the case of the German EN-
peror, according to DIR. West, the
ulcer was not entirely cleared away
and after a period the eruption again
appeared. The only thing to be done
in cancer of the throat is to cut away
the larynX and insert two tubes, one
for breathing and the other for food
purposes.
According to DIR. West. the growth
in the Kaiser's larynN has spread and
il has Become necessary to remove the

WANT MORE DATA
ON PENSION ACT
Commissioners Discuss Moth
ers' Act. but Take No De-
finite Action

The feasibility of adopting the
mothers pension plan in Dauphin
county was briefly considered to-day
by the new board of commissioners.
but no definite action was taken. Com
plete data on the subject will be OBJ
tanned and embodied in a report, ac-
cording to one of the commissioners.
From the information we have re-
ceived so far we understand that the
Governor is empowered TO appoint
seven women TO the pension board of
each county and that the county is
required to bear all the travelling and
other expenses. The question of cost
is not limited in any way. Under
these circumstances we would like to
have a little more light on the sub
ject," said Commissioner Slime.
IF we could designate someone who
is familiar with investigating cases
such as would come under the juris-
diction of the pension board--for in
stance. the Associated Aid Societies
why. | think the plan would be Rd-
mirable for Dauphin county. But this
is not to be considered by the commits
sioners, according to the provisions OF
the act However. we will investi-
gate the matter thoroughly and make
a report on it. When we have all the
data necessary we Will be in a better
position to determine what can be
done"
The commissioners have not vet re-
ceiNed complete reports from the Vari-
Gus branches of the county relative to
employment of men who will be ELI
gible for assistance under the work
mems compensation act. Until this in
formation is in hand the board will not
determine whether the county will in
sure its employees itself or take out
insurance liability.

ALL DEMANDS ARE

[Continued from First Pase.l

submarine commanders operating in
the Mediterranean will not torpedo
without warning privately owned
vessels OF any description including
liners, freighters and tramp steamers.
German assurances in regard to sub
marine warfare in the North Sea in
.clude only liners in passenger serv-
ice.
1t was also stated with authority to-
agreed with the position of the
United States in regard to small boats
not being, under all conditions, a
place of safety for passengers aboard
a ship about to be destroyed. These
last concessions are understood TO
have been contained in the last note
from Germany regarding the sinking
of the ship. William p. Frye. The
communication reached the State De-
partment several weeks ago but has
been withheld from publication on
the ground that it had a certain bear
ing upon the Lusitania negotiations.
Germany is understood to have fully
agreed with the American point of
view.
The assurances regarding the con-
duct of submarine warfare in the Med
iterranean convey the first information
that German submarines were operat-
ing there. In excluding all ships eX-
cept liners from the assurances cover
ing submarine warfare in the North
Sea the German government was rep
resented q $ considering that no Amer
leans could possibly be aboard ships
other than lines in regular passenger
carrying service.
As for the disavowal asked by the
United States, the German government
was represented as considering that
the most effective form of disavowal
was assurances that such acts should
not be committed in the future.

Elihu Root Holds Out For.
Monster Federal Army;
Would Bar All Politics

New York, Jan. :. - The danger of
relying ON the National Guard as a
means of defense in time of Invasion
instead of providing for force under
the direct command of the Federal
government was emphasized YESTERDAY
by Elihu Root at the first business
meeting of the committee appointed nv
governor Whitman to Cooperate with
the National Security League for ade-
duate defense.
Mr.. Roots remarks were called forth
by the suggestion of Ansley Wilcox. of
BuHalo, that emphasis be laid i'm the
resolutions which the committee is pre-
pairing on the National Guard and the
need for strengthening IL rather than
on the regular army and a reserve un-
der Federal supervision.
Il do not agree to thai" said Mr.
Root Il don't think an effective army
can be made up of forty-eight different
and unrelated armies, one from each
state. which look for their commissions
to forty eight different Governors. sur
rounded by many political influences
The National Guard has done great ser
vice and is doing great service-it is
the training school of thousands OF
Young men in the defense of their coun-
try. But II we wish to organize some
really great and effective system OF de-
tense II must be on some other basis
than the National Guard-it must be
a strong Federal army"
