MILITARY
 BODY IS PLANNED CALL VOLUNTEERS

The first meeting of the Public Safety and Defense Committee was held last night and the organization of the body accomplished. Several tentative plans and suggestions were discussed and formulated, and a call was made for local men to enroll and form a military unit for the purposes of drill and duty, as the first step in local preparedness.
 The formation of a local body is in accordance with the recommendations of Governor J. F. A. Strong, and IS essential as a nucleus around which to build an efficient organization.
 For the present the number of vol unteers will be limited as it is the in- tention of the committee that only those who intend to give of their time and best effort should join. When the unit is called together it will have the advantage of instructors who have spent years in the governments mili- tary service; whose time is of value, and not to be wasted upon volunteers who will join under the impulse of temporary enthusiasm and neglect to appear at regular drill hours.
 Equipment and paraphernalia for organization will be received at an

 SEES PEACE WITH
 ENTRY OF J. s.
lRy United States CsbIel

LONDON, Thursday, Aprl lZ.- Lloyd George in addressing the American club luncheon today, said that with the entry of the United States into the war he could see real peace coming. He declared it would have been a tragedy to mankind not to have America occupying a seat at the peace table, which right she hal now won. He stated that the United States would never have been in the war except for the cause of liberty.
 "This is the greatest struggle for liberty" said Lloyd George, "on which the United States has ever embarked.
 Americas entrance into the war means more than waging an effective campaign. She will insure benef- cial peace in which it will appear it was a bad day for Prussian military autocracy when it challenged the great republic of the west.
 "The road to victory is found in the word ships America already realized this, hence the preparation for one thousand 3,OOO-ton merchant men. For three years the British tried every blunder thinkable and got into every bunker. It is worth while for America to study our blunders so as to begin where We are now, and not where We were three years ago"
