NURSES APLENTY FOR ARMY 0F
 MILLION
Red Cross Declares It Could Put 26 Base Hospitals in Field in Few Days If U. s. Should Enter War.
(By Review Leased Wire.)


 WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-An expert hospital force sufficient to care for an army of a million men could be mobilized by the Red Cross within a few days after an outbreak of hostili- ties. is the belief of officials at the hearquarters of the association here. Eliot Wadsworth, acting chairman, es- timated tonight that the force which could be mobilized immediately in case of war would include:
 Twenty-six completely equipped ar my and navy base hospital units, with a total personnel of 1250 nurses and 599 nurses aides. hospital base reserve of 415 nurses and 525 nurses aides: thirty-one partially complete navy detachments of 20 nurses each; one hundred and fifteen local emer- gency attachments and corps of ex- pert instructors in surgical dressings, totaling about l2O.
 Mir. Wadsworth said that all told the organization could put Into the field 2,970 trained Red Cross nurses and estimated that if 30 percent of those to whom the Red Cross had given elementary training responded to the call as nurses aides. the total nursing personnel would be about 5000.
 With the customary assignment of 10 patients to each nurse" he add ed. we could thus take care of 50.000 sick and wounded at once. In the earlier stages of war the proportion of sick and wounded is about five per cent. In other words We are prepared to give expert nursing service to an army of 100000 men.
 No national emergency has ever found the Red Cross better prepared than 1t is today

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Although fig ures to show the number of subma- rines destroyed by the entente allies and the means used in their destruc- tion are unavailable owing to the rigid censorship on war activities, 1t was learned here tonight from an au- thoritative source that during the past year small warships and auxiliary yes sels have been the most effective means employed thus far. To combat the submarine menace, the British government and her allies have adopt ed various plans to catch the under water boats, although some of them have been abandoned as ineffective. A marine authority of unQuestioned standing who is close to British ship ping interests said today when asked as to the effectiveness of arming ships:

 We have found that light guns discharging projectiles of four to six pounds in hands of trained gunners have been by far the most effective weapon. l know personally that as many as two submarines have been bagged in one day in this way.

Then, Should Germany Still Invade Our Rights, the Ca lamity of War Shall Be Upon Her Own Head.
(By Review Leased Wire,

WASHINGTON, Feb. g. The course to be taken by the United States if Germany compels the use of force to safeguard American lives and rights has been determined. It was learned authoritatively after today's cabinet meeting that in the event President Wilson goes before congress again, it will not be to ask for a declaration of war, but to follow literally the words of the address in which he an- nounced the break of relations, and request authority to use means deemed necessary to protect American seamen and people.
 Up to Germany.
 His next step. if taken, will be to enforce that right and even then the issue of war or peace will be with Germany. Any hostile action will have to come Tn the form of an inter  ference with an American right.
 Details of the governments plans are not discussed. It IS known, however, that convoy ing and arming of merchant ships are being considered.
 Negro Was British
 No new development came today to indicate that the overt act by Germany regarded as inevitable was nearer at hand. Fewer reports of ships sunk came in. and none told officially Of the loss of an American life. Further information received about George Washington, the negro fireman lost on the Turino. indicated that he probably was a British subject.
 Plans for Defense.
 The cabinet met today with all members present except Secretary Me AdoO. Just before the meeting the majority of the members had attend ed a session of the council for na- tional defense, called at the war de partment to discuss mobilization of the nations resources as a result of many offers from manufacturing and other companies to place themselves at the disposal of the government in the event of trouble.
 Practically every member took to the cabinet meeting information about the activities of his department in- cluding the general precautions being taken. Questions discussed included emergency legislation. arm ing of ships. economic issues and army and navy preparations.
 U. s. Policy Unchanged.
 After the meeting it was authorita- lively stated that nothing had yet hap pened to change the course pursued by the government since the break in relations with Germany. The cumula- tive effect Of reports of vessels sunk by German submarines collected by the state department. however. is said to make officials certain that Germany Is indeed proceeding with her pro claimed policy of ruthlessness.
