By the Associated Press
LONDON, April 6, 9 a.m.-Former
Premier Asquith has given; the follow
ing statement to the Associated Press
in connection with the entry of the
United States into the war:
There is not a man among us who
does not breathe more freely now that
he knows that through the action Of
the President and Congress of the
United States the whole English-speak-
Ing race is to fight as comrades side by
side in the most momentous struggle
in history. The Presidents speech will
live in the annals of eloquence as a
worthy and noble exposition Of the
grounds and the aims of great ma
tiona1 resolve.
THE people OF the United States have
been forced, as the United Kingdom
was forced. into struggle which in
neither case was of our own seeking.
They have realized. as we have real
lied, that the choice lay between peace
with humiliation and war with honor.
There was no middle course, for armed
neutrality, as the President points out
with irresistible cogency, affords no Sc
cure or powerful foothold

TO uphold the defense Of liberty and
humanity. Never had the fundamental
issues which are at stake been stated
with more precision or with greater
elevation Of thought and language than
in the Presidents address. The pres
emit German warfare, he points out. Is
a war against all nations; and the ami
mating motives of the allies, by whose
side he invites his fellow countrymen
to range themselves. is not vtndictfve-
those human rights which are the COM
mon interest and the natural bond of
the whole family of civilized societies.
ITO this great purpose the American
people now dedicate their lives and
fortunes-as we have already dedicated
ours-conscious that they. are listening
to and obeying one of those supreme
calls which come but rarely in history,
but which, when they come, sound IN
the ears of community of free men
Have Longed for q. 8. Help.
THE President urges upon his fell
low-citizens the utmost practical CO.
operation in counsel with the allies and
promises every form OF effective felp
that America can provide. We on this
side-of the Atlantic acknowledge his
appeal and his assurance with profound
sympathy and gratitude.
I'VE have never presumed to dictate
or even to suggest to our kinsmen in
the United States what their course
should be, but we have in our heart OF
hearts longed that the time might come
when their strength would be Joined
with ours in a struggle SO consonant to
all that is best in our common instincts
and traditions. That day has now
dawned, and we believe that its sun
disappearing democracies can rejoice
together, as fellow workers and fellow
combatants, over the triumph OF free
dom and of right"

Begin Training at Once.
Under the caption Training OF Vol
unteers" the war college pamphlet
reads:
1.-The training OF volunteer troops
must begin without delay after their
induction into the service. No time
must be lost. II should begin at the
company rendezvous. without waiting
for complete mobilization. Under our
traditional policy of relying prlncl.
pally for defense upon citizen sol
diers, the larger part of our land
forces will not be fully trained on the
outbreak of war. II Is more than
probable that we shall have to employ
some of them with little or no train
ing as soon as they can be assembled
In suitable units.
''The amount and character Of the
training viii at first be directly pro-
portional TO the time consumed, pro
vided a rational scheme be followed.
How much time will be available II
is impossible to predict. II is reason
able to assume, however, that In the
event Of a war with an oversee enemy
1t viii be the time required for ouE
eneiay. TO establish at least a partial
control Of the sea sufficient to open
the way for landing Of expeditionary
forces,
HKRy system Of training, however
good In itself, will fail to bring the de.
sired results unless there are avail
able a sufficient number Of trained In
structors, officers and noncommis
stoned officers. The blind cAnnot lead

Referring to the mobilization Of thu
volunteer armies, the war colleg'
points out that all points OF mobIliza
ton have been selected, one in each
state of the Union, and that these pre-
llminary arrangements have been ap
proved by both the federal and STATE
authorities. These plans provide fol
the necessary buildings, for water sup
ply, and all other essential need
which will arise.
