This establishment is Just and nee.

big important things in this coun'
try, namely: Universal tralnlrg
and universal higher education

universal training for national de-
Tense. We need universal higher
education for internal progress.
This country cannot 90 into It's

of yotcrs-voters who leave school

When this war is over The world

Foch's Face Shows the Strain.

Physically Foch is a little man.
His inches are about those of Ma.
polcon and he has Graut's fond.
ness for the cigar! Like Jotlre, a
Southerner, he has frankness of
speech which his old commander
never displayed. Unlike Petain,
his words are rarely caustic and he
has made friends among all his
allies. An old man, close to 20,
yet younger than Clemcnceau, he
was still handsome when the war
began, but the strain has marked
his face and only his eyes reveal
an mistaken spirit. - Frank II. 81

TEXAS CAVALRY To
PATROL THE BORDER
BOTH BRIGADES TO BE FED
ERALIZED AS SOON AS
EQUIPMENT ISSUED.

Washington, June l5.-Owing to
the necessity of realeasing the regu-
lars on the Rio Grande for other
service, it is announced that the first
and second brigades of cavalry Of
the new Texas National Guard
would be mustered into federal
service as soon as they can be
equipped and assigned to patrol duty
along the Rio Grande.
The announcement came follow
ing conference with Secretary of
War Baker and General March,
chief OF staff, by Adjutant General
Harley of Texas. Senator Sheppard
and Representatives Garrett, Car
ner and Buchanan and Major Sulli-
van of Texas.
General Harley stated tonight that
the force comprised approximately
5000 men and it is assumed that the
brigade OF infantry now being re-
cruited will be similarly accepted as
soon as ready.
At the war department is was
stated that horses, clothing and 9TH
er equipment would be ready within
a short time. The organizations
are now taking preliminary training
at home stations. The militia bu-
reau has recommended that the two
brigadeS be sent TO cantonment
in Texas for intensive traininp If
this is not done, General Harley
said, an officers training camp would
be established at the expense of the
state. ..-
The force is to be mustered in as
brigades which means that the or
ganizations are to retain their Of
hcers.

OFFICIAL announcement IS MADE
BY GEN. MARCH, CHIEF OF STAFF
Figures Couer Every Branch
OF Army, Including Nom
combdtant Units

Washington, June l5,-American
troops sent to France now number
more than 100000, General March,
chief OF staff, announced today.
The number of troops now being
transported, General March said, is
limited only by the capacity of the
ships available to carry them. and
we will continue to ship them along
this line he said.
The 100000 figure includes all
branches of the service necessary to
make up complete army, both
combatant and non-combatant units
General March said. All war de-
partment figures regarding troops
sent across will be given out on this
basis.
General March said that the four
German drives so far made were
"all part of common scheme OF Of
fensive." Up to this time, he add
ed, the extension of the allied front
from Rheims to the sea had reached
to 90 miles. To hold that added
line, he said additional troops were
necessary and the importance OF
getting American trops over quickly
became paramount.
General March said that the OBJ
vious objective of the German adj
vance is, first, the channel ports,
the capture OF which would make it
necessary for England, in shipping
troops, to go farther up the sea,
slowing up and making The trans
portation more dangerous; and, sec
ond, Paris, which is Of great stra-
tegic Importance as well as of i'm
portance to the people of France"
The chief OF staff viewed the pres
ent offensive more as an endeavor
to straighten out the German line
rather than advance with a definite
object like Paris The salient be-

(By the Associated Press.)


London, June 15.-German sub
marine activity off the Atlantic
coast of the United States should
not be taken very seriously, as the
Germans probably will not attempt
a blockade of the American shores.
This is the opinion of Vice Admiral
Sir Rosslyn Weymss, first sea lord
of the British admiralty.
The admiral believes that there is
only one submarine operating off
the American coast, and that the
purpose of its trip across the Allan
tic was to frighten the Americans.
German ruthlessnesS at sea, the
first sea lord declared, must be
met by centralized warfare in the
North Sea and the Mediterranean.
Admiral Weymss paid tribute to
the cooperation of the American
naval forces in European waters.
He said the American ships not only
were stationed in the North Sea but
were also operating in the Mediter-
ranean and off Gibraltar.
Effort to Scare America.
The appearance of the Germans
off the American coast
is an arresting development from
whatever point of view it is stud
led, and opportunity was given this
week to Archibald s. Hurk, the
British naval writer, to obtain from
the first sea lord his opinion upon
this new departure upon the part
Of the Germans. and its effect upon
the naval situation generally.
