JAPAN WOULD END

Evidence that Japan considers Ger.
many an enemy only in a modified
sense, and is DESTROYS OF ending the
alliance with Great Britain has been
brought to the attention of this Gov.
eminent unofficially, says the New
York American.
The attitude OF Japan is set forth
in a statement written by Represent
alive Yoneda, a member OF the jap
anese House, in the Traiyo, the fore
most political magazine OF that cOun-
try.
After stating that the AnClo-Japa-
nese alliance, as revised in 1911, vir-
tually Absolved Great Britain from
the duty OF assisting Japan in the
event OF hostilities with the United
States, the japanese statesman said.
in part:
Points calling for the attention of
the Japanese people are that neither
Britain nor Japan has any longer an
enemy against whom the alliance was
formed. Russia is now the intimate
friend of both countries.
Although Germany may be regard
ed as a common enemy in a very mod
ified sense. but in so far as the Anglo
Japanese alliance is concerned. that
country Is now deprived OF her base

NAVY PREPARING
GIANT DETECTOR
TOHUNT U-BOATS

The Navy Department has prepared
a comprehensive plan for protecting
American shipping from submarines.
The department is working on a giant
detector which is expected greatly to
assist in solving the menace.
While the details Of the detector
cannot be published. II Is known that
the department expects It to be ef-
fective over approximately 1--WE miles.
II 1t justifies this expectation II Is
the Intention to stretch the detectors
across the waters In the vicinity of
the German bases and thereby locate
U-boats as they start out.
While these experiments are pend
ing. the department intends to rely
upon armed guards and conveys TO
protect shipping. Officials are salts
fed that proper armament is the best
protection for shipping at present.
They call attention to the fact that
no American ship with a fair rate OF
speed and properly armed has been
sunk.
The department is satisfied that II
Great Britain would use the methods
Of arming ships employed by this
Government the rate OF destruction
OF all except extremely slow craft
would be reduced greatly.
Officials here know that Great Brit
ain satisfies itself with placing one
gun on a ship. manned by a scrub
crew, while this Government carries
numerous guns Of the most approved
type manned by picked crews.

extend the allied front northward
along the entire Belgian coas: to the
frontier of Holland.
The first, and most appreciable, ef-
feet of such a success would be the
capture of Zeebrugge, the Belgian
base of the U-boat activities, which
have been a thorn in the side of the
allies, and which were the direct
cause OF the entrance of the United
States into the war. With Zeebrugge
in the hands OF the allies, the Ger
mans would be forced to depend upon
such opportunities for submarine
operations as might be afforded by
the passage OF submarines through
the North Sea from German ports and
around the north of Scotland TO the
Atlantic, as the English Channel, by
reason of q system OF nets, is prac-
tically protected from the underwater
terror The difficulties of operating
submarines by the northern route
would put a tremendous crimp in
the effectiveness OF this style OF war
fare as conducted by the Germans.
Experts also believe that the turn
ing OF the German right flank would
have strong political potency, for
with the allies touching the frontier
of Holland the joining OF that coun-
try with the allies would be highly
probable.
Still another advantage originating
through a success would be the re-
moval of the air raid terror under
which the London and the east
coast settlements of Great Britain
have long rested, for Zeebrugge Is
the airship base as well as the sub
marine base OF the Germans.

result of the following poster, head
ed "a Stacker" 1000 of which were
distributed in the town:
"A would-be merchant dealing in
general merchandise, has repeatedly
refused to buy Liberty Bonds Of the
first and second issues, absolutely
refused to join or support the Red
Cross, or to contribute to the Y. NJ

Stacker has grossly insulted two lady
solicitors working for the Y. M. G. A.
war fund.
why should he be permitted to
prosper and enjoy the freedom and
liberty of our country and at the
same time assume an attitude that
will tend to destroy the very foun-
dations upon which this God-fear-
ing nation has been builb and for
which our forefathers fought so
valiently during the Revolution.
will you permit a Stacker of this
type to hoard blood-stained dollars
while our boys are bleeding in the
trenches of Europe. while the Huns
are ravishing the women and chill
dren of Belgium and France. God
forbid. that the patriotic people of
Mount Union will allow this stain
upon her loyalty to exist while we
are sacrificing our boys and bending
our energies to defeat those barbar-
ians who are threatening to destroy
our very homes.
ut is rumored that he has made
the remark that he is doing more
business since taking this stand of
disloyalty than at any time previous.
Americans, why continue to patron
ize this yellow dog and allow him
to boast in this manner. Can't you
see that he is gambling with your
boys lives?"
