Frederick Palmer Talks toI
United States Officers onI
Conditions on War Front;
People Must Be Advised,
tev MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wlasI

Washington, March 23.--Frederick
Palmer. war correspondent who was
the only accredited representative OF
the American press on the western
front more than two years, delivered
a confidential talk here today at the
army war college to <he general staff
and many officers detailed there.
Some of the things the correspond
ent told the army officers were per-
mitted to become pubic and among
them was his declaration that the
United States should not attempt to
send any troops to France until it has
raised an army of proper proportions.
Ten thousand men, he said, would do
little more than hold mile of trench.
On the subject of censorship in the
event the United States enters the
war, Mr.. Palmer counseled the ap-
pointment of a chief civilian censor
with army and navy officers for as
sistants, and the publication Of all
possible details in connection with the
army. -Inasmuch as an army must be
recruited from the people, he told the
officers, the people must be recogniz-
ed as part of it and must be given any
information which would not be of
military value to an enemy.

Against j, S,

Albany, n. Y, March 23.--The
Rockaway Point fort site legislation,
with its consequent criticism last night
by Mayor John p. Mitchell of New
York. which Senator Robert F. Wag.
ner, democratic leader of the senate,
who was born in Prussia, interpreted
as "the vilest and most serious
charge that can be made against an
American citizen" has stirred legisla =
tive circles almost as much as in the
days preceding the impeachment OF
Governor William Sulzer in 1913.
Mayor Mitche1's statement made
last night in New York, was quoted
here as follows:
'It would appear as though some
body is working in the interests of
Germany rather than in the interests
Of the United States. Do you want me
to tell you who I mean? l will tell
you l mean Bob Wagner"
Senator Wagner introduced a reso-
luton today to summon the mayor
before the senate to substantiate his
allegation. Consideration of the res
olution was deferred until Monday.
Senator Wagner was greeted with ap-
plause when he entered the chamber.

Washington, March 23.--First steps
by the new Russian government to-
ward the emancipation Of Jews in
Russia were reported today by AM
hassador Francis, who said all eduCa-
tional restrictions as to both schools

Officials here look on this step as
forecast OF freedom for the Jews in
Russia incidentally also it forecasts

cause of which the United States alb
rogated the commercial treaty with
Russia and leads to confidence that
the treaty soon may be renewed.
Combined with steps toward home

HOLLAND STEAMERS
COMING FOR j, S, GRAIN

Washington, March ga fleet Of
fifteen Dutch steamships was said
here today to have sailed recently
from "a port in Holland for the United
States by way of Halifax. The vessels
all steamed out the same day and now
are believed to be well north of the
German submarine zone around the
British Isles
1t is intended by The Netherlands
government, which has the ships un-
der charter, to have them load grain
probably in New York and then re
turn by the route they came. It was
expected here today that lack of food
stuffs in Holland made it necessary
that large quantity be obtained at
once. Many Dutch ships loaded with
grain are now being detained in Brit
ish ports either by the British authori-
ties or through fear of German sub
marines.
