Smith congratulates the council on

MOBILIZATION CAMP
MAY BE ESTABLISHED
NEAR DALLAS SOON

Dallas, Tex. April Captain NJ.
G. Holiday, in charge of army recruit.
ing in north Texas, is quoted as say
ing that the establishment of mobili-
zation camp near Dallas is practically
assured y the army bill carrying pro-
vision for enlistment of five hundred
thousand men is passed by congress.
Such a camp, he said, would not be
established for less than brigade,
perhaps four brigades.
"In the selection OF a camp site" he
said, "the government will take into
consideration transportation facilities,
density Of population, availability Of
supplies, a good camp site, target
range and water The fact that re
cruiting headquarters for north Texas
are in Dallas probably will be a big
factor in bringing the camp to this
city.
"The presence OF the soldiers in San
Antonio and III Paso has been of i'm
mense commercial value to those cit
les.
Army tents do not last more than
an average of six months and they are
just as expensive as permanent wood
en- houses. Therefore, believe tile

wooden barracks for the camps.

erty near Dallas and believe suitable
camp sites can be procured near Trim

GERMAN RAIDERS
WERE REPORTED
ALL THE WAY FROM NANTUCKET
SHOALS TO VIRGINIA.
CAPES.
SCARE
Wy Officials Expect Many Such Re-
ports While Excitement Is Up. De-
stroyers Meanwhile Are Seeking
Terrors Of Sea.

Washington, April Reports OF
German commerce raiders off Atlantic
ports were flashed along the seaboard
today and all shipping practically was
tied up while naval patrols went out
to establish the identity OF the mystic
rious ships reported near the lanes.
1t was the first breath of war at the
doors Of America, and 1t sent a thrill
through the country.
The first report came from Nantuck.
ct light vessel, which saw strange
ship passing west at 1920 o'clock this
morning and promptly reported it to
the Boston navy yard and the navy
department Destroyer flotillas are at
sea in the vicinity and presumably
they heard the wireless warming
which swept the coast line and SCI out
to locate the mysterious craft Mean
while shipping was warned not to ven.
ture TO sea.
Soon afterward a report of raider
off the Virginia capes came from
Hampton Roads, where shipping also
was held in port while armed craft
went to sea to investigate. -
Navy officials expect many reports
of raiders while the seacoast is at high
tension ana many such probably will
turn out to be unoffending tramps.
No precautions are being overlooked
and the naval patrol is on the alert to
examine all strange ships.
Officials considered It would be
strange for a raider to venture so
close to ports which are known to be
guarded. TheS would expect a raider
to lie off at sea on the edges of the
Shipping lines instead of venturing
close enough to shore to be observed
and reported
1t was considered not improbable
that the wireless warnings of the mys.
terious ship passing Nantucket were
heard all along the coast and might
be responsible for other reports of a
commerce raider lying in wait.
