PREPAREDNESS IS
WORD OF THE HOUR
congress May be Called in Extra
Session as Early as April Navy
to Sink Submarines on Sight
and Ocean Patrol Or.
ganized.

ASeohs mcctiuS VI the Gap
met In Washington, preparedness 1.
the determined policy of the govern
ment. Full discussion has been giyer
the sinking of the unarmed American
vessels by German submarines. Ii
discussing the situation as regards
Germany the Associated Press had
the following to say Wednesday:
1t is said tonight that the Presi
dent Will make an important an.
nouncement within 4S hours dealine
with tthe developments in our rela.
tions with Germany. The character
OF that announcement is not known
1t may take the form of decision te
advance the date of the assembling OF
Congress, so that body will be ready
to transact business on April 2 in.
stead of April 16.
Th President, it is asserted. has
not definitely made up his mind as to
what to do in this matter. With one
exception, all his Cabinet advisors
urged him today to get the two
houses in session as speedily as pos
sible, so that state of war might be
declared to exist.
The one argument which is causing
the President to hesitate against an
earlier sitting of Congress than that
arranged is that even though Ameri.
can ships have been sunk without
warning, the situation has not
changed beyond the point for which
he made provision by authorizing the
arming of merchantmen, and that II
is desirable to wait to see how the
armed vessels fare in dealing with
German submarines.
If the armed vessels should escape,
then, it is argued, there would be no
reason for going beyond the state of
armed neutrality. Moreover, if an
armed ship should sink submarine,
the German government might take
upon itself the onus of declaring war
and this would be valuable FOR the ef-
feet 1t would have upon sentiment in
various communities now classed as
pro-German.
Leaving the White House, Secre-
tary Daniels attended a meeting of
the General Board of the Navy. That
board is charged with the formulation
of strategic plans in connection with
the distribution and use of the Ameri-
can fleet.
AT the request of the Navy Depart
ment, the Associated Press refrains,
except in general way, from reveal
ing what the Navy will do to meet the
submarine menace. There is no in
tention, of course. to hazard the
dreadnoughts and cruisers, which are
essential for the defense of the Ma
tion. All the American vessels
available will be organized into a
patrol. They will operate
on the western side of the Atlantic,
to sink any German submar-
inc they may sight.
In other words, every effort will be
made to prevent merchantmen from
being torpedoed Immediately after
their departure from American ports,
a not impossible contingency in view
of the operations of U-53 off New
port last Fall. The allied submarine
destroyers must provide for the pro-
lection of the merchantmen once they
reach the other side of the water.

RELIEF FROM HARDSHIP.

Little Rock, Nov. 14.-ThL provost marshal has advised Governor BroIgh that under the old regula- tions the district boards under select i've draft had no authority to com pei the attendance, of witnesses, but under the new regulations to be is- sued soon, such authority will be vested in the local and district boards.
 ! The following important regula- tions have been announced through the office of Adjutant General Eng land, from the provost marshal gen eral:
 Information reaches tbis office to the effect that some men who have received notice that they have been selected for military service have given up their employment expecting to be sent to camp at once and that the delay of call to camp results in great hardships in some such cases. To relieve this hardship adiutant gen erals are hereby, authorized to permit such men to be inducted into military service upon their own written appli- cation and to be sent to camp imme- diately.
 This authority must be sparingly used to relieve cases of real hard ship only and the number of men to be sent from any state under of this telegram shall not exceed one per cent of the-quota of that state. The object of this authority is to provide such men with food, pay and lodg- ing. The reason why the calls have been delayed is that there IS not suf- ficient warm clothing at the camps to put selected men immediately into uniform. All men applying to be sent to camp under this authority should be cautioned that while they will re ceive lodging and subsistence they should take with them sufficient amount of warm clothing"

BEST THEATRE

Frances Hodgson Burnett's book, "The Little Princess" is the story of which Miss Pickford America s Sweetheart" appears at the Best Theatre today. Mrs. Burnett is the author of Little Lord Fauntleroy," That Lass O Lowrie's" and many other splendid stories of child life in the provinces of child life and the life in provinces of England and Scot land. This story of little Sara Carewe is one of the most popular of this authors works. ranking with the Fauntleroy story in point of in- terest. Sara is the little daughter of an English army captain, born in Bombay. India, and losing her moth- CT at her birth, the father decides to put the child in boarding school in London, and here Sara is very happy until news come of her fathers death and the loss of her fortune. Miss Minchin of the school keeps Sara Crewe but. makes slave out of her in the same establishment where she was formerly one of the wealthiest and most beloved ofs the pupils. The little girls sweet disposition wins her way into the heart of Becky, the little maid of all work, and the two have good times together in spite of their hard task masters. Then some thing happens that changes the whole course of Sara's life, and into the good fortune that comes to her, she takes Becky. the true friend. The play is developed logically and natur- ally, and Miss Pickford is, as usual, far above all competitors in her por- trayal of the little girl of ten about whom the whole story centers. Twen- ty-five little girls are seen in Miss Pickford's support, aside from many older and we'll known actors.

GERMANS ACCUSED OF HORRIBLE ATROCITIES

(Ry E.. B. Hartman of the Vigilantes)
 ! told my friend, MT. M, of the '. s. Secret Service that I had just been informed that certain papers had retracted the charge made against German soldiers of cutting off the hands of children. He looked at me from deep set eyes that burn ed, brighter with every breath, more intense, more fierce with each mo- ment

It may be that the thousand multilated children that I saw in one small town not far from Liege had lest their hands through gunfire when they got in the way during bat tie. It may be that little girls lost their tiny breasts from the same cause. But don't believe a word of it, just the same.
 "I tell you only what I saw with my own eyes. don't give you a single hearsay story. saw the muti-
 
 aaw them not by dozens, but by hun freds and thousands. i saw more than any paper in America has ever told | saw enough to make me have a chronic rage smouldering, ready to flare at the first word in support of Prussia or ofs leXtenuetion of her crimes. saw enough to prove to me that Germany has no sense of honor or decency or common ordinary horse sense left. She is a ravening beast, devil incarnate.
 "I stood in a. trench with an Eng fish officer and asked him why he did not send out detail under flag of truce. to gather up the wounded l!yifig just ahead. He laughed grimly, viciously. We tried that once' he said. Had g. man wigwag interna tional code saying we wanted to gath Ter our wounded under flag of truce Our flag was answered by one from their side and the two signalmen stood up in plain view. The German signaled back to come on, it was all right with them Our men advanced an entire battalion unarmed. They advanced till they were only 50 yards from the German trench and began to pick up wounded. Then the machine guns opened fire and not one man o1 that battalion lived five minutes.' That is what an English officer told me while stood in a trench only eighty yards from Hun trench and saw through 3 asperiscope many wounded lying uncared for outside. ] don't believe mothers in France lice to mo when they told of atrocities committed against their children. don't believe that officer lied to me Truth has established herself in the hearts If these people and her sigr is on their faces.
