BY SMALL BOATS
Rumors of the Presence of
German U-boats Caused

progress that he did not believe they
could have been hiding Teuton mon.

ALLEGIANCE TO u. S.

London, March 29.-AuSten Hoy,
whose mother and sister were among
the Americans who perished on the
Laconia, foreswore his allegiance to

He became q member of an officers
training corps with the rank of a

commission later in the heavy artillery
branch of the service. for which his

pany especially fits him.
Hoy cabled President Wilson soon
after 1t had been established that the
Laconia sank from the unwarned at
tack of a German submarine, demand
ing that the United States avenge such
deed and declaring he would be the
first American to enlist against those
who had caused the death of his loved
Lones. otherwise, he said, he would
ioin the British army. So far as
known President Wilson made no
answer to the cablegram. In an inter-
view with the United Press, given
shortly after the death of his mother
and sister had been confirmed, Hoy
said his aged father-an American
physician who was a. Civil war vet
eran-was too old to assume the family
duty of avenging the death of the
mother and sister and that he regarded
it as his own duty.
Hoy Immediately resigned his posi-
tion as London representative of an
American concern.

TO BE
RECRUITED TO THE
full WAR STRENGTH.
Ranks of the Regiment Be-
ing Filled Rapidly at
Home Stations, Prepara-
tory to Mobilization at
Boise Barracks.

The Second infantry, Idaho National
Guard, is rapidly filling out its ranks
to meet the muster required by the
war department, preparatory to mob
ilization at Boise. Until its company
commands are up to practically war
strength, the enlistment of men will
continue at home stations.
Adjutant General c. S. Moody took
occasion today to correct the errone-
Gus impression which seems to be gen.
eral over the state regarding enlist
ing in the regiment. This impression
is holding back many men who would
otherwise flock to the colors. To serve
the country and it's flag enlistment in
the national guard or the regular army
is now the only course open. The
navy, of course, holds out the same op-
portunity.
NOT IN REGULAR ARMY.
when men enlist in the national
guard they do not enlist in the regular
army" said General Moody today to
correct the wrong impression that
seems to be widespread. They en-
list for, three years active service and
three years reserve service. When the

longer needed, they will be mustered
out of the federal service and return tt
their respective states, to their homes

list. While discharged after the war

Omitted Press War Summary
Official statements from
all belligerents today indi-
cate that the German retreat
on the western front is ap-
parently reaching its final
stages. From, now on the
fighting will probably be of
masses of men on both sides
not of the type heretofore
exemplified in warfare of
hurriedly advancing forces
clashing in comparatively
open order with rear guards.
Today's battle front dispatches, in
cluding the Paris official statement
reporting French forces ''in contact
everywhere with the enemy lines in
dicated the changing character of the
conflict.
BIG GUNS IN USE.
Moreover, as indicative OF the close
approach of the French to the perma-
nent "Hindenburg line" the Paris
statement spoke OF bombardment
from big guns" of the enemy, directed
at Soissons. Big guns" presumably
means that type of artillery requiring
permanent emplacements-such as are
undoubtedly built on the permanent
line.
British front dispatches indicated
Haig's troops have not approached as
close to this German line as the
French as the British are still making
use of armored cars and cavalry, usefu
only in open fighting.

HAD TO PROVIDE A
REASON FOR TROUBLE
Publication Called Light
and Truth" Devoted to
Attacks on America and
President Wilson Given
Wide Circulation Over the
Country.
BY CARL w. AcKERMAN
Copyright, 1917, The Tribune Associa-
tion)

While protesting, official
ly, her friendship for the
United States the German
government has been secret
ly preparing the German
mind for war since'the sink
ing of the Lusitania. Ger
man officials realized that
unless the people were en-
couraged to hate and to sus-
pect President Wilson and
the United States it would
be impossible for them to
have public support when
the break came.
The German people must always
have a reason. A war or break in
diplomatic relations had to be "just-
fled" So while Germany maintained
a propaganda bureau in America to
explain" Germany and to maintain
good relations, she started, also in Ger
many an extensive propaganda system
against Wilson, the press, the United
States ambassadors and Americans in
general. It was propaganda of hate
and very effective. Among army Of
ficers the bitterness AMI hatred of tho
United States are deeper and more
extensive than the hatred of any other
beligerent. 1t was often said in Ber-
lin: Germany hates England, fights
France, suspects Russia, but loathes
America" No one, not even American
officials, questioned it.
LIGHT AND TRUTH.
In January, 1916, there appeared in
Berlin a publication called Light and
Truth" 1t was a tNelve-pag circular
in English and German attacking
President Wilson and the United Sta
tes. Copies were sent by mail to all
Americans and to hundreds of thous-
ands of Germans. 1t was edited ano
distributed by 1.-THE Leaue of Truth II
was the most sensational document
printed in Germany since the beginning
of the war against a power with which
Germany was supposed to be at peace
Page contained two illustrations un-
der the legend:
WILSON AND HIS PRESS IS NOT
AMERICA.
Underneath was this paragraph:
AN American Demonstration

day of the German emperor, an i'm
tmense laurel wreath decorated
