An Event of Moment.
nsboro Daily News,

Greensboro Daily News.
The successful launching this week
Of the Hoopaught Sweetwater from
the Maui shipyards on Eagle Island,
near Wilmington, is an event Of no
small Importance. While it may be
true that the splash Of the Hoopaught
as she goes into service will hardly
cause ripple on the surface of the
great shipbuilding industry Of this
| is fraught with wonderful posiibili-
ties, not only for Wilmington and
the State but for the Atlantic sea-
| board. The construction and launch
! ing Of a sea-going vessel at Eagle Is
| land is revival Of an industry that
flourished before the war of the sec
lions and during that unhappy period.
Some years after the war shipbuild-
ing at Eagle Island was abandoned
and for the past rs years at least no
ship Of any consequence has~been con-
structed near Wilmington. Shipbuild-
ing at Wilmington in years gone by
was one of the notable industries Of
the State. We have it on authority
of the Wilmington Star that not only
were merchant vessels built at Eagle
Island but an ironclad Warship, one
of the first in all history to be built,
was constructed at the Berry plant,
almost on the same spot where the
Hoopaught this week slid into the
water ''The Berry plant, says the
Star, "also built the large steamer
Yadkin, the flagship Of Commodore
Lynch Of the Confederate States navy.
Both the ironclad and the flagship
were very large ocean vessels. The
| ironclad built for the Confederate
navy mounted six large guns and car
ried big crew of marines and sail
ors."
: The revival Of shipbuilding at Will
mington may very soon take on ire
mendous activity. The location for
a giant shipbuilding plant has been
secured by Messrs. Van Horne and
Raines, two northern capitalists, who
will construct the plant provided they
can secure the contract for their out
put from the government. In 10.
cal story regarding the possibility Of
the plant being established the Sta1

CHURCH PLEDGE
OF LOYALTY
Northwest Nebraska Methodists
Think Germany Plotted to
Conquer Whole
World.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
LINCOLN, Nebr., Sept. 10.-The
Northwest Nebraska conference of
the Methodist church in session at
SCOTS Bluff, Nebr,, today passed
resolutions declaring its belief that
Germany planned to conquer the
world and that America could not
have escaped war no matter how,
much it desired to do so, and pledsing
the church's unwavering support to
America in it's fight for the life of de-
mocracy. The resolutions, drafted by
a committee headed by Bishop Homer
C. Stuntz, follow:
I'VE have come to believe that the
Prussian military government has
been watching the west for many
years and whether we had gone into
the war or not, plans had been most
carefully laid to strike democracy a
death blow in the very near future
and that neither money nor blood
would have been spared in the at
tempt to establish her unholy autoc-
racy on these Shores and upon the
world. therefore the northwest Ne
braska annual conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church now in
session in SCOTS Bluff, do here
by declare our unwavering conf
dence in the government of the Unit
ed States and world democracy and
we pledge our every possession in it's
defense"

OFFICIAL DETAILS

War Department Has No Word OF
Killing Of Americans When
Germans Bombarded
Hospitals.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.-Rela.
tives of the American army medical
corps men killed in France by Ger
man bombs, will be the first to re,
ceive official death notices from the
new casualty division of the war de-
partment. Adjutant General Mccain
has built up big organization to
handle this branch of war work.
"All we try to do is to send a
humane message telling relatives OF
the regret of the war department at
death of troops on the front" it was
said today. The facts of a soldiers
death are recited, concisely. AS the
death list grows greater, these mes
sages must become shorter, of neces-
sity. There is no form either for
casualty kilograms or letters"
The war department today still
awaits official details of the Ameri-
can hospital tragedy in France In
which Lieutenant Fitzsimmons and
three privates of the Harvard hos
pital unit were killed by German
bombs.
Excepting report from the Amer
lean military attache at London con-
firming Fitzsimmons' death, the war
department has received news of the
German air bombardment only from
William Philip Simms' dispatches to
the United Press.

mann's views today from high OIL
ciaI of this government.
Scheidemann insinuates that the
president has not in fact the conf
,dence he expresses either in the Ger
man reichstag or the people. He has
confidence in the people, but demands
more than mere intensive reform on
the part of the reichstag.
There will be no laying down OF
arms on promises from the reichstag'
which, it is pointed out, has no constr
tutional powers whatever.
The reichstag binds Germany to
nothing. The kaiser's word means
nothing to the rest of the world Be
tween them no step toward peace is
possible without the German people
leading it,
Administration officials confidently
believe that the German people Will
topple over the Hohenzollern dynasty
They see in the kaiser's repeated ex.
prssion of confidence in the Loyalty OF
his subjects to him, an admission OF
weakening conviction on this very
point. Refehstag peace formulas and
programs for characterization mean
nothing unless the people themselves

All members of the cabinet are now
at army headquarters in confer
ence over the military situation.
Premier Kerensky and General
Korniloff have been at odds since the
Moscow conference. Korniloff at that
time demanded institution of practi-
cally every rule Of the old autocratic
army regulations-and particularly
insisted on the death penalty. He de-
clared Russia could only be saved
through violent strengthening of her
armies-and that this could only
come about through enforcement OF
the most drastic disciplinary meas,
ures. A temporary truce between the
army commander-in-chief and the
premier WIS arranged shortly after
the Moscow meeting, Kerensky agree
ing partially in institution of the
death penalty.

a point on the line where their pres,

is believed desirable, however, to re.

relieve the food stringency. Emphasis
is laid on the fact that the transfer

WARNS AGAINST
EMBLEM MISUSE
Red Cross Insignia Must Not be USED
In Commercial Activities,
According to National
Society.

The American Red Cross authorizes
the following: .
Recanse OF the growing misuse or
the Red Cross emblem commercially
the American Red Cross has just is
sued a new warning to those who may
be violating the law regarding IT,.
while much of this misuse OF the
embIem is unintentional and through
excessive zeal, the national Red Cross
ran no longer acquiesce in these VIC
lat;ons. many of which have been
and are of a serious nature.
Under the statute the Red Cross
emblem can only be used by author
jtI IT can not be used in the man
ufacture or sale of Red Cross buttons
or nins except upon such AUTHORIZE
ton. Many novelty manufacturing
houses and stores, taking advantage
of the great increase of popular in
terest in the Red Cross, as we'll as
the growth in membership to nearly
q 1000 900, have put on sale large
n,,antities OF Red Cross pins, post
cards, and devices. An equally COM
mon abuse has been on the covers OF
patriotic songs and popular mag
azines.
It is the feeling of Red Cross of
ricials that the Red Cross emblem
should be regarded much as the flag

Geneva international agreement the
emblem is set apart for the work Of
