Americans Stirred
To Fighting Anger

"These Germans would conquer
the world by terror. But here in
Ohio We'll show them. The Kaiser
now knows we are coming.
The Germans didn't know Bel
GUM, they didn't know France, they
didn't know England, they didn't
even know old whiskers down in
Mexico. And they didn't know Uncle
Sam. With all their learning they
didn't understand the moral sense Of
humanity.
The Kaiser dared US to even loan
Belgium a rag to bleed on. He muir
dered our citizens at sea, then said
he didn't go to do it; he just did it
coming back. He said we were soft;
that we were slackers; that we
wouldn't fight. But We'll show him
that we can fight. Well go over
there two million strong and beat
Germany.
"You fellows here voted for Will
son because he kept us out of war.
And l did, too. / was pacifist. We
were so glad Germany, with her big
guns, wasn't mad at US. But we have
awakened to the realization that
Germany must be crushed or hu-
manity must live under her lying,
barbarous heel.
"And we are in it to a finish. You
boys in khaki get a good tail hold
on Germany and lam the stuffing out
of the big bully, and when you get to
Berlin pull down every war monu-
ment, so that the curse of mill
tarism may be removed forever"
All of which sounded less cultured
to the ears Of New London than the
Presidents lofty phrases, but not
less effective. The mothers in the
tent felt that they were getting
some emotional return for their sac
rifce, and outwardly and inwardly
blessed the man who thus taught
them to hate the power their boys

the present contingent as soon as the
United States government can make
arrangements for the journey.
Some Of the refugees told The Asso-
ciated Press to-day that they had left
Jerusalem three months ago, but had
had to wait two weeks in Aleppo, five
day. in Damascus. three days in Ko-
nieh and six weeks in Constantinople.
Other delays were frequent along the
route, the train on which they were
proceeding being stopped and held for
entire days at various points.
Concerning the conditions in Pa!es-
tine, the travellers said there was much
misery. All foodstuffs were extraordi-
narily high in price, and many persons
we're dying from hunger. Bread cost
IL piastres, or about half a dollar, per
kilo (2.20 pounds. One hundred
piastres in paper were bringing only rs
piastres in silver when the refugees
left.
Formerly" said one of the travel
lers, "half Of Jerusalem lived from
American money, especially the poorer

these are the identical people the

Morse Favor w. S. Ship Plan

CHRISTIANA, Aug. 1.-THE decision
of the United States government to
take over ships under construction in
American yards elicits favorable COM
ment in the Norwegian press. The
newspapers agree that it is to Norway
interest if the tonnage is used under
the American flag, because the taxa
ton then is more favorable than under
the Norwegian flag. For this reason,
several Norwegian ships already have
been transferred to American registry.
Norwegian concerns also are estab-
fishing branches in the United States
and Incorporating there with Ameri-
cans as directors and it is hoped that
some of these firms will obtain the
management of newly-built Norwegian
ships.

Farm Lad Wants
To Fight Belgians'

Soldiers here seem as superhuous
as watchdog in a twelfth-story
Cat. Some of the local conceptions
Of European geography are as dis
torted as a railroad map, and one
farm lad vowed that he would 60 ito
fight them there Belgiums" if he was
year older.
But there are boys in khaki here,
and the major spirit is fine and
healthy, and Mcconnell easily
touched off the composite nervous re-
ssxes Of the community with his
blunt oratory.
'Tm going to fill your hides with
shot he said. "I'm going TO talk
war apd hell. I'm going to fay the
Kaiser and the German murderers.
we need not fear barbarians. But
We should fear highly scientific peo-
pie who have no morals. The Ger
nan people of Europe are not i'm
moral; they are immoral. / am not
taking about any Germans in this
audience, unless they are that kind"
New London looked over itself to
pick out the German-Americans in
the tent. The orator took another
hitch in hrs belt and continued:
II you Germans left Germany to
become Americans and to quit being
Germans, you are with US in this
fight against militarism and dirty
var methods. But if you still think
