BLACKS ASK TO SERVE BRITAIN
Recruiting officer Tells Court There
Is No Unit for Negroes.

London, May 6.-Three Negroes
from jamaica were arraigned yester-
day in police court, charged with
slowing away aboard vessel bound
for England. They worked hard
throughout their passage, saying they
wanted to join the British army. All
were intensely patriotic.
The court was nonplussed. Recruit
ing officers were summoned, and said
there were no units Of Negroes in
England and no facilities for recruit
ing them.' The court refused to SEN
tence the men and remanded their
cases, directing the recruiting officers
to find means to give them a chance
to serve.

chow CAN THESE THINGS BE3"

A desperate effort is now being
made to arouse the people in this
country to the necessity of bending
every energy to aid the allies as
against the German alliance.
The following report explains itself:
Chicago, May 3.-"Germany can
turn out submarines as fast as she
can train crews to man them" de-.
clared James w. Gerard, former
ambassador to Germany, who ad-
dressed the Chicago Bar Association
tonight.
"The German munitions factories
are working full blast. The Germans
lack nickel, used in the manufacture
Of big shells, but they are trying hard
to make up this deficiency Germany
has more men In the field than ever
before. She Is at this time the
strongest military power on earth.
Our people do not grasp the magni-
tude of the war. Tho nation 10 not
awake"
knows what he Is talking about, but
II million and half Germans have
been killed as reported, how is 1t
possible to have more men arrayed
against the allies than ever before.
The admission that Germany is the
strongest military power on earth Is
not only significant, but it indicates
that the progressiveness of the Teu-
tons has been underestimated and
surpasses the widest Imagination Of
those, who thought they knew the
inside workings Of the great military
machine Of the Kaiser and his ad-
visers.
We fear that 1t will take several
Zeppelin raids over this country to
make the average person believe that

HAS THE UNITED STATES DE
CLARIGD WAR ON GERMANY.

The New York Sun, In its issue of
the 3rd inst. makes the following
observations:
Germany, according to a new ies-
patch from The Hague, docs not
consider herself at war with the
United States because she has not
received official notice of any dcc'a1a-
ton Of hostilities by America From
Berlin comes the statement that citi-
zens OF the United States, although
they are kept under police survcil-
laEce, are not treated as enemies.
The explanation Of these announce
ments may be found in the form CT
the resolution in which Congress rec
ognized a state Of war between Cor.
many and the United States. The
authors Of that resolution were care
full to make it's phraseology express
exactly the condition they desired to
record. 1t says that:
"A state of war between the United
States and the Imperial German Gov
ernmcnt which has been thrust uDOn
the United States is hereby formally
declared"
Germany has contended from the
beginning Of her aggressive campaign
that she was not making war on tho
United States, and reports OF her at
titudo now sent out possibly indicate
an intention to adhere to this theory,
with the Interior design Of utilizing
1T to her advantage automatically in
the future. That tho Imperial Gov
ernment has not been officially In
formed Of the action Of Congress or Is
officially unaware Of the enemy char
acter Of the United States is incon-
ceivable.
The question naturally arises,
whether pr not, the United States Ia
at war with Germany 1t would also
indicate that the species Of deception
which has been practiced upon the
people Of the United States is to DO
continued. Under tho impression
that we are at war millions Of dollars
can be appropriated for the army and
navy Of the United States.
The drafting system will bring the
whole unfortunate business In the
limelight. Drafting Is never resorted
TO In any other save when the life
of nation Is at stake and the United
States cannot DO said to be in the
same condition as>the countries across
the seas.
The New York Suns editorial Ger
tainly explains situation Of affairs
that Is as puzzling as it Is astounding.
The Sun asks, "'What is the German
government attempting to do now7"
It seems to us that It 10 attempting to
automatically outgeneral the diplo-
matte corps of this country at
Washington and to lessen in intensity
the feeling against the Central EN-
pires in these United States of
America
