Interesting Chats
From Hotel Lobbies

MY dear fellow. I sympathiEe with
| those members of your parliament who
must speak against war, IL they speak
/ from the heart" said T. Upton St. Dav-
enport. former candidate for member Of
! the English Parliament, who is stop
ping at the New willard.
England welcomes the entry of the
United States into this world battle"
he said. Not that we need any help
| There has never been the slightest
doubt in the minds of Englishmen as
! to how this terrible conflict would end
We have felt it from the beginning
Nothing but victory for the King and
the arms of Great Britain.
Independence OF thought and ex-
preston has always featured the Brit
ish Parliament. Therefore let us not
be too critical over a minority that ex-
presses itself with vehemence and
fervor while II voices a conscience.
Lloyd George was not always in SYM
pathy with the crown. But he was al
ways for England. So 1t is here. We
have the great majority. but we have
also q minority and It Is fortunate that
they may -sxpress their convictions to
the whole world.
II don't care to say how long IT will
be before this war Is ended. In fact I
don't want to discuss it other than to
predict the result which We all know
must come.
| Miss Grace Houston, of Chatham.
Ontario, who is on her way to Canada
from Daytona, Fla. stopped at the
New willard yesterday and discussed
war conditions as they affect the
United States and Canada.
Il am only twenty-five miles from
| Windsor, which is just across the line
from Detroit, so that I feel that all
|
! Canadians have the strongest feel
ling of affection for the people of the
| United States. / can't exactly tell
: what the entry of the United States
| into this war will mean other than to
say that I know American women will
be equally as patriotic as those of our
Dominion. The school teachers have
voluntarily given one days pay each
month to the war fund and women in
! nearly every other line of endeavor
have made a similar offering in addi-
| ton to the regular war taxes.
| Canada and the United States have
always had a common bond of SYM
| pathy. This war will make it even
stronger. Henceforth hands across the
border will mean more than it has
ever meant before"
sheboygan, Wis. has the distinction OF
being the city In the United States which
! cast ne strongest vote against the
! United States going to war. The vote
/ after a two-day referendum was 4,0S2
against and seventeen in favor OF enter
! ing the war.
| Commenting upon this, W. J. Hoehle,
of Sheboygan, who Is at the Raleigh, Of
| fered some interesting facts.
THE patriotism of Sheboygan citizens,
now that the United States has entered
! this conflict, will not yield one iota to
any other community in the United
! States" he said.
Our city Is noted for chairs, children.
and cheese. We make more chairs than
any other city in the United States; we
are far IN advance with respect to our
output Of dairy products, and our cosmo-
politan population have large families.
| I'VE have many citizens Of German
birth and descent. but they are good
| Americans"

CHANGES MADE
IN ADMIRALTY

LONDON. (Monday, Aug. Glide
layed.)-Official announcement was
made at the admiralty tonight that
Admiral Sir Cecil Burney, second sea
lord, had been replaced by Vice-Admir.
al Sir Roselyn Wemyss.
Alan Garrett Anderson, hitherto vice
chairman of the wheat commission,
succeeds Sir Eric Campbell Geddes,
the new first lord of the admiralty as
controller Of naval construction.
The changes in the British admiral
ty are attracting much attention and
are interpreted as the first step in a
reorganization which 1t is supposed
Sir Eric Campbell Geddes, first lord
Of the admiralty, was appointed to car
~ out.
In quarters where the existing ad-
miralty methods are regarded as un-
satisfactory the present step in de-
nounced as a "procrastinatory half
measure" and it Is declared the change
ought to have been so complete as to
give the country resolute and ener-
getic admiralty permeated by an Of
fensive spirit"
There is no implication of incapacity
against Admiral Sir Cecil Burney,
whose services as Admiral Jellicoe's
second in command of the grand fleet
are recognized and an official an
nouncement states that he will be en-
ployed on special duty. 1t is assumed
that as his record was made in active
command he may welcome the change.
