MUCH PRAISE
Is Due Those Who We're Instrumental
in Getting the Kentucky State
Sunday School Association
Convention to Come 20
This City In 1917.

The announcement that the Ken
lucky State Sunday School Association
would hold its annual session in this
city in 1917, the first news of which
appeared exclusively in Saturdays
Ledger, created a bit of comment
among the Sunday School workers of
this city and county.
The credit for getting the CONVEX
tion to come to this city must fall
chiefly upon Miss Mary Wilson of this
city, although several others from the
city and county were in attendance at
the meeting of the City Sunday School
Board and they seemed to think that
such a convention would be an excel
lent thing for this city. She had prev
iOusly obtained the o. X. of the Cham
Der of Commerce to ask the convention
here. When she went to the Conven
ton she presented the claims of this
city for the convention.
Ashland was the only other city in
the state that seemed to care to have
the convention next year. Indeed, so
close was the race between the two
that Maysville won by the narrow
margin of three votes. Maysville is
somewhat more centrally located thar
Ashland and considering the fact that
the convention has not been held III
this city for 80 years we were the
lucky city.
The local board will begin prepar-
ing some things for the convention az
once although a great many details
must be worked out later Plans will
be made throughout the entire winter
for an excellent convention and help
to bear out Maysville's reputation as =
good convention city. The cor-opera-
ton Of all the church workers in the
city is asked to make the convention a
very successful one.

About two weeks ago a meeting was

LANSING DENIES
CRISIS ON U-BOATS
Charges Rumors of Ger
man Plans Are Inspired
on This Side
From The Tribune Bursu.l J

Washington, Nov. 24.-The charge
that recent press reports from Berlin
of an approaching crisis with the
United States over submarine warfare
were inspired in this country was
made by Secretary Lansing in public
statement to-day. He denied at the
same time that the State Department
had any more reason for uneasiness
over the situation than it had had FOR
the last three weeks.
81 don't know the origin of these
rumors in regard TO the submarine
situation" said Mr.. Lansing, but l
have an impression that they are be-
inp created in this country"
While the Secretary would not par
ticularize. it was inferred that he be-
lieved the rumors were inspired either
to affect the stock market or by per-
sons interested in provoking a crisis
in relations with Germany.
One of the Berlin reports to which
Mr.. Lansing referred said another
crisis over submarine warfare was ex-
pected. State Department officials adj
mitted yesterday that it was "un-
usual" for the German censor TO pass
! report of that kind. Mr. Lansing
believes that the dispatch does not
represent German official opinion.
The Secretary indicated, also, that
alarming reports in the American
press were from the same sources.
Mr.. Lansing's statement and his in
sistence that this government had no
new cause for concern over the situa'
tion followed a meeting of the Caoi-
net al which relations with Germany
are understood 20 have been discussed.
Until to-day many Administration Of
.cials had expressed freely their fear
that Germany was returning 70 ruth
less submarine warfare. To-day, how
ever. il was evident that strenuous
efforts were being made to create d
contrary impression.
II was said authoritatively that, IN
any event, the United States would
address no more notes or demands 10
Germany. The German government IS
presumed to have a clear understand
ing of the American attitude. and Will
be expected 10 make whatever amends
the situation requires without prompt
ing from Washington.
il was declared, also, that the rea'
son for Withholding the evidence in
the Marina case was TO see first what
exclamation Of the attack the Ger
man government would make.
1--WE are not going TO show our
h2nd until we see what cards Ger
man, is going to play an official de-
clared.
