PRUSSIAN SOCIALISTS SPLIT
Breach Occurs After Address by Leader
on War and Budget

Berlin, Jan. 20 Socialists in the
Prussian Chamber have now followed
the example of the Socialists in the
Reichstag Of splitting into two hostile
groups. The breach occurred yester-
day after speech on the budget by
Deputy Hirsch in behalf of the Socialist
caucus.
Immediately after Herr hirsch had
delivered his speech. Adolf Hoffman,,
who is sympathizer with the Haase
wing Of the party, arose and protested
against certain expressions in the ad-
dress regarding submarine warfare, the
causes Of the war and other matters
connected with the war. The majority
Socialists saw in the action OF Herr
Hoffman, breach against party dis
cipline. and after the sitting confer.
ence was called and Hoffman, and
three other deputies were read out OF
the party group. This action leaves

U. S. ACTION PLEASES PARIS
Recognition of French Protectorats
Over Morocco Well Received
tBy Cable TO The Tribune]


Paris. Jan. 20-The recognition by
the United States of the French pro-
tectorate of Morocco has been most
favorably received by the French press
and public. The semi-oficial Temps
devotes a leading article to the action
Of America, saying that it is fresh
proof of the sympathy of that coun-
try for France "and one that can be
said without false modesty the
French are sure to merit by their acts
and objects"
The newspaper recalls incidentally
that during the Morocco trouble in
1905 Germany sought the first oeca-
sion to break the pacific equilibrium
of Europe and that the United States
through that episode observed the
most loyal attitude toward France

Promotion I'm Navy.

Uncle Sam needs a large number OF
hospital apprentices to 60 at once into
draining to learn to care for the SICK
and injured of the United States
Navy.
Here liz an opportunity, say the re
cruiting authorities of the Maryland
district, for bright young men between
.the ages Of IL and 26 years to not only
offer themselves at a time when the
Tountry needs their services, but to
hlace themselves In position TO
learn a profession through which they
can in time work themselves up to
the top OF the ladder Of success
Applicants for these positions need
not necessarily have had previous ex-
Derience in hospital work, pharmacy
or nursing. The principal requisite is
"a thorough common school education.
but young men with natural adapt
Utility to this kind Of work will be
given the preference.
The Bureau of Navigation has ask
ed Maryland to supply 80 hospital ap-I
prentices for the naval service by
June u.s. A few have applied but the
response has not been the kind that
the recruiting authorities would like
to see.
In a comparatively short while after
the young man accepting position
in the Navy as hospital apprentice
leaves the first course of instruction
he can work his way up through the
various ratings of the branch until ne
becomes a chief petty officer, receiving
a very good salary and learning a
great deal that will be invaluable to
him should he ever decide to return to
civil life.
After serving a while as chief petty
officer the young man becomes eligible |
to take the examination for pharmac-
list, in the warrant rank OF the Navy, !
ard when he has been given this ap
pointment he receives the pay, allow
ances and privileges of a Junior lieu
tenant in the Navy.
Lieut. p l.. Wilson, the Navy Re
cruiting officer for the Maryland dist
riot, is particularly anxious to receive
the applications of young Marylanders /
for these positions and hopes to be able .
to announce to the Bureau of Navi- |
CATION on June 16 that Maryland has .
given it's full quota of hospital ap-
prenticeS.
Minors making application must .
have the written consent Of their par
ents OF legal guardians, forms for !
which purpose can be obtained from
the postmasters of the various cities
and towns in the State.
Full particulars on Navy enlist
ments can be obtained from the near
