GOVERNOR URGES EQUAL
SERVICE, EQUAL TRIBUTE

Atlantic City, May PLANS whereby
every city, town and village in New
Jersey viii pay tribute Of civic pride
and patriotism to every Jerseyman to
be called to the colors under the equal
service act are to receive the attention
of Governor Edge at once. The gov
ernor has returned from his fortnight's
outing at Hot Springs, Va, and
launched himself at once upon the pre-
liminarles of placing New Jersey In
readiness for prompt and patriotic
response to the nations call.
''The boys who are to go forth under
equal service are none the less worthy
of the respect of the people than those
who volunteer, because they will dis
charge duty which must be met" the
governor said. IT want to see New
Jersey pay them a tribute which will
be in keeping with the patriotic ideals
of state which never has failed to
give good account of itself"
Governor Edge wants the machinery
to provide New Jersey with Goethals
made highways under the legislation
passed at Trenton last winter set in
motion at once. He conferred with
General Goethals in Washington while
on his way back from Hot Springs and
found the general also of the opinion
that the war should not be permitted
to interfere with the state highway
projects.
Governor Edge will recommend tc
the state highway commission this
week plan whereby the task of build
ing the main system arteries provided
for in his $15,000,000 plan may be com
pleted In two and half years instead
of the whole of the FIVE years during
which the tax is to be levied at the rats
Of 100000 annually.
The governors proposition is that
counties which are desirous Of having
particularly important sections Of the
main system built as soon as possible
! shall be permitted to finance the pro.
jects under the supervision Of the state
by issuing bonds to pay the bill, the
bonds to be retired as soon as the state
is In a position to reimburse the coun
| ties.

FOOD CAMPAIGN
WORK IS PUSHED
Question of How to Utilize
School Kitchens During
Summer Months is Broached
to School Authorities.
speotal 70 the KTkNrvo Mrwa.

Trenton, May THE question OF
how to utilize the school Kitchens
during the summer months as a.
means for furthering the food con-
serVatlon campaign was today
broached by State Commissioners OF
Education Kendall in letter to all
superintendents,s supervising princi-
pals and teachers of domestic science.
Il am wondering whether 1t would
not be feasible to keep many of our.
kitchens open during the coming
summer" asks DR.. Kendall, "or part
of the summer, for women, as we'll
as girls, who may want to make use
of these kitchens. under proper di-
rection and supervision, for canning,
preserving and drying many Of the
articles of food which will be raised
this spring and during the early sum-
mer. 1t is feared that many of the
vegetables and fruit raised will go to:
waste because they win not be pre-
served for use during the coming
critical winter"
The letter asks that the school
authorities discuss the matter, as
such q use of the schools would be
rendering patriotic service. Atten-i
tion Is also called to the different
articles prepared by the State De-
partment of Agriculture which treat.
on the food question. He asks that
they be made a part of the instruc-
ton.
Accompanying each letter to SUI
perintendents, supervising principals
and teachers Is q summary of tho
bulletins issued by the Federal De-
partment of Agriculture at Washing
ton, which was taken from a New
York newspaper. DR.. Kendall sug-.
gests that 1t be read to all girls.
II feel strongly that this is time
when the teachers of domestic
science should depart from their ira
ditional courses of study and In
struct their classes for the remainder
of the year from the point of view
OF our present serious national food
crisis. If we cannot depend upon
domestic science teachers to do this
do not know upon whom we may
depend" says Mr.. Kendalrs letter.

10000 U. S. TROOPS READY
TO GO TO FRANCE SOON

Washington, May T. War depart
ment officials today freely predicted
that an American military force, prob
ably only 10000 strong, would be ready
for service in France by June 10. The
general staff is now, it was said, con-
sidering the work to be done in raising
and dispatching such force.
Great impetus was added to the grad
ually growing demand for Americans
to get into the fighting at once by the
approval of Secretary Balfour of Great
Britain Of the plan in his conferences
here with the American officials of the
state and war departments.
The first step toward organization Of
such a force are being delayed by the
failure of congress to complete the
final action upon the ADMINISTRATORS
selective draft legislation.
The bill, now before a joint confer
ence of house and senate members,
viii probably be agreed upon by the
end of the week. 1t would be signed
Immediately by President Wilson, who
would at the same time issue procla-
nation calling upon all men within the
ages specified to register at local Of
fees within ten days.
War department officials estimate
that only four days will be required to
complete the registration, and a call
for 100000 men will then be issued.
The first concentration Of the new
army is expected to begin by May 80,
and it is believed that within ten days
from then force of 10000 partially
trained men and officers could be gath
cred for service In France
The probability of this government
being able to raise force of 10000
conscripts by June 10 has caused doubt
as to whether the first troops to be
sent would be taken from the regular
army or the national guard, as for
merly planned.

DANIELS THINKS THAT U-BOAT
WARFARE IN NEAR END

Washington, May III the perfect
submarine destroyer has not yet been
found American inventive genius will
soon discover it. This is the feeling of
Secretary of the Navy Daniels.
30 far he has received no report
from the naval consulting board that
q successful invention for the destruc-
tion Of submarines has been recently
found by its members.
Navy department officials predicted
that the public have heard the last
word 1t will get until the war has end
ed as to whether the naval scientists
have been successful In their efforts.
No further statement that would indi-
cate what has been discovered is ex-
pected to be made because Of the desire
Of the department officials to prevent
word from reaching Germany.
A long distance telephone converse
tion between Secretary Daniels and w.
II. Saunders of the naval consulting
board, who made the announcement In
New York concerning the invention, re-
suited In denial from Mr.. Saunders
that he had been positive In his state
ment. He said he had been misquoted.
The announcement Of Hiram Maxim,
g ax been dying submarine prob prob
iems, that he has invented torpedo
proof armor for commercial vessels has
not been confirmed In cfficial reports
to the navy department.
II know Mr.. Maxim has been devot-
ing his time to a study Of the subma-
rine problem" said Secretary Daniels.
"Mr. Maxim and Mr.. Saunders, like
the rest of us, are very optimistic
and believe the solution is only a mat
ter of time. Just how long we do not
dare say. But the best brains of Amer
lea, stimulated by suggestions prompt
ed by the experience Of our allies, have
been working at the highest tension,
and we are very, very hopeful"
Secretary Daniels said Mr.. Saunders
could not understand how his words
had been misconstrued into the posi-
tive statement that definite device or
method Of ending Germany's subma-
rine war had been found.
The report that Hudson Maxim had
invented torpedo proof armor is re-
garded with general interest in naval
circles here. The last time Mr.. Maxim
was in Washington he was in consulta-
tion for several days with Rear Ad-
miral Ralph Earle, chief Of the bureau
of ordnance, and then was reported to
have been discussing new armor
plate on which he had been working,
