Banner Attendance
Marks Opening Of
the Chautauqua

The Valley City Chautauqua opened
last evening with record breaking
attendance The management stated
it was the largest crowd ever attend
ing the ChautauQua on the opening
night. The AUDITORIUM was we'll filled
and many were enjoying the concert
who preferred to stay in the open air.
The North Dakota University concert
band made great hit, and proved to
be one of the finest band organizations
ever held on the ground. 1t would
take writer talented in a musical
line to give their concert the proper
vriteup. However, the audience was
delighted and all voted to tell the
good news to their friends and neigh
bors of the temperance of the band
on Saturday and Sunday. The park
was busy place during the afternoon
and evening. Many were moving in
and it begins to look like one of the
zeal old Chautauqua sessions.

Red Cross Needs Workers..
Headquarters at Chautauqua

The local organization of the Red
Cross has a tent at the Chautauqua
grounds. 1t is near the auditorium
and can be reached without any trou.

sewing machine and samples of ma

PLEASING FEATURE OF
VALLEY CITY CHAUTAUQUA

One of the pleasing features of the
Valley City Chautauqua is the mode of
transportation which may be had.
The Sheyenne river with its beautiful
scenery and winding way has several
motor boats on it which make the trip
every ten minutes. This is one of the
coolest and most pleasant rides to be
had. The boats leave the landing at

the day and night.

Japanese of West
Planning to Enlist
Adopt Resolution Pledging
Loyalty at San Francisco
Meeting

San Francisco April 23.--The Jap
anese Of the Pacific Coast have testi-
fed TO their loyalty to the United States
in a resolution adopted here at mass
meeting of Japanese, which pledged
their support of the government in any
capacity in which they may be needed.
As a preliminary step they decided TO
cooperate in Red cross work, and in
case of further need they plan to enlist
in actual service.
The local Japanese also issued a
proclamation commencing the Presi-
dent and the government for what they
describe as a true stand for humanity
in the worlds crisis, and asking the
privilege of serving the country whose
laws protect them.
Reports reaching here tell of a patri-
otto movement on root in Honolulu
started by Japanese TO raise division
of troops from the ranks of the $4,000
japanese reservists in the Hawaiian
Islands. Resident Americans in Hawaii
say that the japanese on the islands
have displayed an eagerness to estab-
lish their loyalty to the Stars and
Stripes.

Red Cross Acts
To Stop Loss of
Hospital Ships
International Committee
Sends Sharp Protest
to Berlin

Geneva, Switzerland, April 23.-The
International Committee of the Red
Cross has sent an energetic protest to
the German government against the
torpcdoing Of English hospital ships,
specifically against the sinking of the
Asturias. The committee declares that
it agrees to Germany's right TO halt
and investigate ships that may appear
suspicious, but it denies that a ship
may be destroyed under any circum-
stances without warning.
The committee has sent to Washing
ton a list of American citizens taken
of vessels sunk in the Atlantic and
still interned in Germany. 1t includes
men removed from the Voltaire, Mount
Temple, Georgia, Esmeralda, Bulgarian
and Czersk.
The note to Germany says:
"The German government assumes
the right to release itself from
obligations regarding hospital ships
imposed by the Geneva and Hague con-
ventions. On March 20, 1917, German
submarine torpedoed the Asturias,
ship whose appearance left no doubt as
to its character and which the day be-
fore had deposited large number Of
wounded and sick. Preceding this, an
other large hospital ship, the Britain
mic, had met the same fate.
THE international committee, whose
right and duty it is to see that the
principles of the Red Cross and the
Geneva Convention are respected. rec
ognizing the injuries which might
have resulted, calls the most serious
attention of the Imperial government
to the responsibility which it bears
toward the civilized world in persist
ing in a decision contrary to humani-
tartan customs which it has solemnly
agreed TO respect.

Military Census
May Include All
Over 10 Years Old
City Awaits Compulsory
Amendment Before An
nouncing Plans

The military census 10 be taken IN
this state early next month will re-
quire, it is expected, the registration
Of all persons of both sexes more than
sixteen years Old The Mayors Com
mttee on National Defence has already
gone far toward providing the pro-
gramme and machinery for this huge
task in the city. It is waiting now be-
fore announcing its plans. for the Leg
islature to pass an amendment max
ing the registration compulsory and
providing for the appointment Of di-
rectors. This amendment is considered
sure Of passage within a day or two,
having been advanced to a third read
ing in both houses.
Already directors have been desig
mated by the Governor. The Mayors
committee has large army of volun-
tary workers card indeXed in its ar
chives, recruited with the help, largely,
of the National League for Women's
Service. Members of this organization
will be available "a assistants.
The taking Of the military census
will resemble in many respects the
registration period before election. The
plan is to open registration booths re-
semblng polling booths in the various
election districts and to bid every one
above the age indicated to register at
the booth provided for the particular
district. Registration will consist Of
filing out a blank with questions on II
relating to age. nativity, past expert
ence. etc. There will be no physical
examination.
But unlike registering before an cleo
ton, this registration will not be vol
untary. Imprisonment will be the pun
ishment for forgetfulness or neglect,
according to the act now on the eve Of
passage. and the entire legal machin-
cry of the community will be invoked,
Il necessary, to enforce It, False state
ments also will be severely punished.
The bill so far does not indicate
an age limit for those subject to its
provisions. That, it is understood, will
be left 70 the discretion Of the Gov
ernor, who favors the lower limit Of
sixteen. The first day of registration
has been set tentatively for May 10.
