Combined Service Schools.

In advocating the combination of
the Army War College, of this city,
and the Navy War College, of New
port, R. l., Col William w. Harts
makes a suggestion that will un-
doubtly receive the support of Wash
Ggtonians and should receive ma
tional support.
The reasons for such a move at
this time are so obvious as to need
no outline. Col. Harts, however, gives
several vital reasons why such a
move would prove beneficial to the
government. That the location of the
combined schools should be in Wash.
ington also is beyond argument.
While the Newport location is
ideal for a number of naval opera
tions, experts believe that it is just
as unsuited for a war college loca-
ton. Col. Harts cites the fact that
the growth of the navy, because Of
the heavy naval appropriations, will
bring about need for larger quar-
tiers, which fact is also true of the

To meet the needs of their today.

But only to a few forever

Reward may come to such as he
Perhaps the son shall be hereafter

at the Arsenal for an enlarged school
for both branches.
The combined instruction course
which could be instituted could not
but benefit both services, and the fact
that both military and naval experts
of the country have their headquar-
tiers here is strong argument for
the benefits that would accrue from
a combined system, but which are not
possible with the schools separated.

Germany's sincerity in its submarine war

War in Fact.

Just to make certain that the full i'm

United States may not be missed OF mis-

not one overt act alone, but three.

OF declaration. II is true but war in fact

threat of war-high time for Washing

score. and to act.

Three more American steamships have
been sunk by German submarines. The
slnkings were without legal or moral
Justification. They were every one acts
of war against the United States. To
say that We must wait until an armed
American ship has had a fight with a
submarine before recognizing that our

juggle with plain realities.
This is war and the administration will
do less than its duty IL II fails to grasp
the fact and take measures accordingly.

Germany's Acts of War.
Now York Times. }

NNtN 1ofk lunesl
By the repeated acts of Germany
state of war exists between that coun-
try and the United States. No declara-
ion has preceded it. The acts of
Germany are not to be looked upon
merely as a provocatiOn to war. they
are war itself. 1t lacks only legal rec
ognition to establish its existence.
Reports OF the sinking of three
American ships by German submarines
will be read by the people of the
United States this mOrnlng-the Vigi-
lancia. the City of Memphis, and the
Illinois. Two of them were westward
bound in ballast. They were all trad
ing vessels. of American ownership
and registry. manned by Americans
Some of the members of these crews
have been saved. many others are
missing. These. too. may yet be res
Cued- but there is grave fear that
American lives have been lost In
one case, at least, the submarine that
did the work was not seen by the
ships officers or crew.
The destruction of these American
ships. after the warnings We have
given by word and act. dispels all
doubt of Germanys intentions 1t
is impossible longer to entertain the
belief that she will try to avoid war
with the United States. She is firing
upon our ships. sinking them, destroy
ing or endangering the lives of our
citizeps. This is the very essence Of
war, these acts are utterly incompati-
BILE with the wish to avoid it
What has the imperial government.

policy of the empire exhibit the reck-
lessness of madmen, the depravity of

OFFICERS LOCATE
AND RECOVER LOT
OF STOLEN GOODS

Motorcycle Officers Harper, follow
ing up the arrest Of negro named
Ed. Bailey. who was charged with be-
ing dangerous and suspicious char
acter, carried to the police station
at $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
probably 200 sacks of smoking to-
bacco, playing cards in unbroken
packages, cigarettes and cigarh, po-
tatoes, onions, neanut butter, rice,
etc., in sufficient quantities to fill sew
eral sacks, all of which had been
stolen Systematically from the store
of the Pensacola Produce Company,
and Bailey is charged with having
thus generously helped himself to
these goods.
It is stated that Bailey had for
some time been employed by the store
named, and that he had been q trusted
employee. Goods began to disappear
mysteriously lately, and it was then
that suspicion rested on the negro
named, and he was taken into custody.
Then it was ascertained where these
goods had been carried, with the re-
suit that it required a special trip
Of the patrol wagon to bring the a.
legged stolen booty to the station,
where it remains stocked up as eA-
dence again the negro under arrest.
Bailey's bond was fixed at a high
figure, and being unable to furnish 1t,
he was committed to Jail. A warrant
for his arrest may be made in the
county this morning.
