DRASTIC ACTION LIKELY,
FOR WAR Time MUTIEY
IS A CAPITAL OFFENSE

WASHINGTON. Aug. 25.-somc o.,
the Presidents advisers said to-day
the orders providing for ths training
Of negro troops in the South may be
resclnded. and the men trained north
OF the Mason and Dixon line.
The President and his Cabinet have
not been able to reach definite con-
clusions as TO the responsibility for
the Houston riot. or to decide what
action TO take, because OF the inooni-
pete reports.
Drastic action Is expected when the
official investigation is complete. II
Is even suggested that the death PEN
atty may be meted out to the soldiers
guilty Of mutiny in war time. The
troops involved will be tried by gen
eral court martial, and those found
guilty OF refusing to obey their off,
GERS are liable TO be shot.

The Vice Chancellor repeated the
charge. so often made by German Of

Britain entered the war was that
Germany's trade In 1917 presumably
would have reached the level OF the
trade OF Great Britain. which feared
