France 10 continue the war until the

President Calls on Children
To Do Their Part in War

In order that suffering children else
where may have the chance to live.
1t will teach you how to prepare
some Of the supplies which wounded
soldiers and homeless families lack.
II will send to you, through the Red
Cross bulletins, the thrilling stories
of relief and rescue. And, best OF
all. more perfectly than through any
of your other school lessons, you
will learn by doing those kind things,
under your teachers direction, to be
the future good citizens Of this great
country which we all love.
And commend to all school teach
ers in the country the simple plan
which the American Red Cross has
worked out to provide for your CO.
operation, knowing as | do that
school children will give their best
service under the direct guidance and
instruction Of their teachers. Is not
this perhaps the chance for which
you have been looking to give your
time and efforts in some measure to
meet our national needs?

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s.-Marshalled

Already at the camps is the advance
guard of per cent of the total.

CONTROLE AMERICAN, AMERICAN
EXPEDITIONARY ARMY IN FRANCE,
Sept. 18.-In the recent offensive at
Verdun two American officers who
were present, as observers, set a good
example and gave inspiration to tho
soldiers near them by their conspic-
uous calm under a heavy shell fire.
The two officers were at a forward
observation post when the attack be-
gan and when told that, on account
OF the heavy fire from the German
guns, 1t would be well for them to re-
tire to q more sheltered post, replied
that they preferred TO watch the bat
tie from their front row seats.
II IS reported that one American Of
acer, after playing the part of spec
tator for several hours. expressed a
strong desire TO 60 over the top in
the attacking wave, to see just how
we'll he could throw bombs. He said
he had practised so much that he was
eager 10 make an actual experiment
upon the Germans. His wish was not
granted.
The American visitors also had an
experience with gas, when a number
of gas shells exploded near the post
where they were stationed and a heavy
vspor crept in upon them. Masks, how
ever, served to keep them safe, though
uncomfortable.

Crisis May Force
Swedish Premier
Out of Office
Reorganization of Cabinet
Under Admiral Lindman
Is Reported

STOCKHOLM. Sept. 18.-The Asso-
ciated Press is informed that Premier
Sgartz may retire and that Admiral
Lindman, tho Foreign Minister, will
reorganize the Cabinet, with himself
as Premier.
In the event that Premier Swartz
retires new men will be named for the
posts of Foreign Minister and Minister
Of Justice, the rest Of the present min
isters being retained A decision will
be made Wednesday.
On account of the prospect OF q
change in the administration OF SWe-
den. the contemplated meeting OF
scandinavian ministers this month at
Copenhagen will probably be postponed
until the late autumn.
The plans for projected conference
of neutral states generally, for which
the Swedish government some time ago
opened overtures, are also suffering,
because Of the uncertainty regarding
the Swedish Cabinets tenure o. Office
The Copenhagen correspondent OF the
"Daeens Nyheter" sends dispatch TO
this effect.
The German Minister to Sweden for
mally expressed to-day to the swedish
government Germany's regrets in con-
sequence of the Swedish-Argentinian
telegram affair. Inc German Minis
ter is understood to have reserved ex-
plantations regarding the kilograms sent
by the German Minister at Buenos
Ayres through the Swedish Legation
until the report from Count Won Lux
burg has been received.
The action of the German Minister
in expressing in general way Ger
many's "keen regret for the embarrass-
ments caused Sweden through the
Buenos Ayres telegram affair." but alb
staining from any explanations seem,
to be regarded here as rather made
ouate and unsatisfying. 1t is felt that
Germany might have gone much
further 10 help Sweden out of these
lembarrassments.
The government organ, the "Tage-
bladet," saws: "The German Minister'S
declaration to the Foreign Office on
Monday goes around the case and must
be regarded as extremely thin and un-
satisfactory. The German govern
ment's wording does not contain the
slightest reference 10 the fact that en-
barrassment was caused primarily by
Count Won Luxburg's abuse OF facilities
furnished to him on a neutral base.
"Oficial circles in Germany do not
seem to have comprehended or to wish
to comprehend how keen and unani-
nous is the Indignation IN Sweden
against the German abuse, and that the
indignation is directed primarily against
lust this abuse, and only secondarily
against the embarrassments starting
from this inexcusable abuse, which are
now falling upon Sweden from the En-
tente side"
The "Tagblsde" expresses indignation
that Won Euxburg utilized the posi-
bility of forwarding kilograms, which
was granted for other and loyal rea-
sons without adequate control. TO com
uunicate in a cynical tone advice which,
II followed, would have resulted IN Sc
rious loss OF life and property.
The conservative "Svenska IaGolade
questions the authenticity OF Won Eek
hardt's Cronholm letter, and suspects
that the United States has been the VIC
tim of mystification.

has been convinced that her dream OF

"Under civilization we all give most
ages to each other. We place IN the
other mans hands something sacred
which we forfeit if we break tho com
mon law. It is the price we pay for
life among our fellows. Germany must
do the same.
"The people of Germany have been
taught to fear The world should teacn
them that they have no reason for rear

rible reason to fear her. Our victory
will come when Germany removes'tne

The Bolsheviki demand that the AL

Task Well Under Way

In statement tonight the War De-
partment says the enormous task of
obtaining equipment and supplies for
the army is being accomplished salts
factorily. Some of the men of the Ma
tional Army may be only partially
equipped for some time after they are
modified. No attempt will be made to
furnish them with full war equipment
until the eve of their departure for
Europe. Some civilian clothing, such
as overcoats, will have to be used for
a time, as the clothing industry has
not yet caught up with its work.
With the mobilization of one-half of
the 6S7.OOO men of the first call under
the selective law in progress, the ques-
tion arises as TO whether that number
Of men will be sufficient 70 fill all
units of the National Guard and the
National Army. There are indications
that deficiency in men will be dis
closed when official reports from all
the thirty-two training camps ara
available.

Seventeen Divisions Formed

Seventeen divisions of the National
Guard have been organized, but with
the exception of the New York, Penn
sylvania and few other units and the
42d Division, which soon will embark
for France, they are not at maximum
war strength. The fighting strength of
the seventeen divisions under the new
tables of organization would be $4,000
men, supplemented by many auxiliary
troops.
Since the President called the first
$4,000 men Of the National Army, the
Signal Corps, including the aviation
section, has been greatly expanded.
Nearly 100000 additional men must be
transferred to this service alone.
The Medical Corps also has been
greatly increased, and numerous neces-
sary auxiliary units for immediate duty
abroad, not thought of when the call
was made, have been organized. Where
enlisted men Of the Guard or the regu-
lar army have been taken their places
will have TO be filled with National
Army men.

Vacancies Are Probable

So far as known, no definite figure as
to the probable total deficiency in men
has been compiled. 1t is not unlikely
that when the National Army divisions
are organized many vacancies will be
found at the cantonments, and 1t will
be necessary either to make second
call on the drafted forces or to train
incomplete divisions. Divisions will go
TO France only at maximum strength.
In statement to-day the War De-
partment says the industries Of the
country are expanding rapidly to meet
the army supply demands, and only
minor shortages are expected at the
training camps. Quartermaster Of
fcials regard the food situation as
satisfactory. The problem of obtain
ing clothing and other equipment,
however, has presented many OBJ
stacles. most of which already have
been overcome. With 100000 men
to provide for and $3,OOO,OOO,OoO to
spend in the first year, the depart
ment faced gigantic task at the out
