Oronsa Survivors
See London Sights

LONDON, April 3o-The American
survivors Of the British steamer
Oronsa, which was torpedoed with a
party Of fifty-seven Y. M. C. A. workers
abroad, spent the day sightseeing in
London.
AS the guests of the British authori-
ties they visited the Tower of Lon
don and St. Paul's Cathedral to-day
and had lunch at the Eagle Hut, which
has become headquarters for American
soldiers and sailors on leave in London.
Here they met several hundred Amer
ican sailors from one OF the battleships
now in British waters as we'll as nu-
London.
None of the Americans on the
Oronsa suffered any i'll effects from
the experience, and those destined for
France expect to proceed in few days.

China Abandons Plan
To Send Army to Allies
Impossibility of Obtaining
Ships to Transport Men to
France Given as Reason

(By a-Japancse Correspondent
SAN FRANCISCO, April 30.-China
has definitely abandoned the idea of
sending her army to Europe to fight
the Germans there. according to a
Toxic dispatch to Japanese paper
here. The chief reason for this de-
cision is the lack of ships to transport
the Chinese army.
America, England and France have
repeatedly urged China to send her
fighting men to Europe, and China has
been doing a good deal of preliminary
work for the dispatch of forces to
France. But now the impossibility of
obtaining transportation has forced her
to give up the idea completely. China
is expected to notify the Entente Pow
ers Of her decision at an early date.

Troops IN Italy Would Aid

Will America postpone a declara-
ton of war against Turkey until the
Turkish feet, thus heavily rein
forced, raids the Mediterranean?
Let US avoid the same mistake of
costly debate which we made in the
case of Austria. Let US further urge
fer immediate consideration the sug-
gestion to send the flag with a regi-
ment of troops to Italy.
The advance on the West front is
having a natural psychological de-
pressing effect, which is spread and
abetted by the pacifists and which is
likely to undermine the morale and
create ominous conditions. An Amer
lean flag would Immediately inspire
confidence, it would raise the spirit
Of the country and hold it keyed to

Work for u. S. Navy

The acquisition Of Russia's Black
Sea fleet by the Germans increases
the Allies difficulties and dangers in
the Mediterranean and argues for
prompt action on the part Of Amer
lea to send a much needed navy unit
to strengthen the present Allied feet
in those important waters.
They are already infested with
enemy submarines and there is now
the menace of an attack by the for
mer Russian feet, under Turkish and
German colors. The fleet comprises
FIVE large battleships mounting 12-
inch guns, one dozen destroyers and
seven submarines, besides the Goe-
len, which is faster than any Allied
warship at present in the Mediter-
ranean.
Neither French nor British ships
can be spared for this new task
without the abandonment of other
important posts, and the Italian coal
shortage almost nullifes their USE
fulness.

enormous: e1 Now American opinion is
ina the Germans cannot keep up such
efforts as that. 1t goes further. It
holds that recession OF the Germans
may be expected at any moment now.

outspoken than the Americans and
much more cautious. The Allies believe
that Hlndenburg will keep it up at this
present pace all summer. The recent

l!eve that other and greater efforts in
the same direction will follow it, alter
mated perhaps with smashes at other
sectors to keep Foch from concentrat-
ing too many men before the Channel
ports, but in the main, aiming to cut
on England from easy access to France
only twenty-three miles from England's
shore.
Long Fight Expected
BY Allied Experts
The allied representatives frankly
say that the battle will last all summer,
constantly threaten as it appeared to
when KENNEL Hill fell, but they ex-
press confidence in the power of Brit
ish and French forces to defend all
essential lines of communications until
Germany's efforts exhaust itself. They
do not wish this country to fall into too
easy an optimism and believe because
one effort of Hindenburg is stopped
Germany is defeated. They want this
country to take the peril in which
France and England lie with the utmost
seriousness. There is reason to believe
that they them selves take it So
The best view of the situation is
that another and greater drive on Ypres
will follow the one that has just been
repu!sed. Germany's attack on the
British line of communications may be
regarded as defeated only when it is
as clear that the Channel ports are
safe as it is now that the Allied line
cannot be cut in two.
