AMERICA CHIEF
DISCUSSION IN
!. LONDON PAPERS
Entrance into War Played
up in Editorials-U. S.
Soldiers Pictured.

London, April 6.-Most Of the lead
ing editorials IN this mornings Lon
don newspapers are devoted to h
anniversary of Americas entry into
the war. while the illustrated papers
give prominence to pictures of the
American soldiers on the western
front. There is. unity in praise for
the achievements Of the year by the
United States in her war making pro-
gram and tribute by all to the leader
ship of President Wilson. ,
'In this hour Of anxiety and 'sor-,
row." says the Daily Telegraph, "
have still only to be worthy ourselves
Of our ats to reap at length the
victory of right that vas assured to
civilization by the act of the Ameri-
can people a year ago."
Some Of the other editorial express
sions are;
Daily Epress:
1--WE are proud that American sold
iers, vigorous and markedly serious as
men entrusted with a great mission
and finely masculine, are actually
fighting INCUR ranks. : We know that
America is only beginning. Our faith
in ultimate victory Is doubly assured
unconquerable west, strong in its be-
lief in its destiny, unrivalled in its
resources and ever scorning all half
measures, is standing with us in the
ranks of freedom, hungry for victory
and determined to think of nothing
and are for nothing except the liber-
alton of the world from militarism
and tyranny"
Daily Chronicle:
"Never has a more sacred bond
united warning peoples than that
which now joins the English speaking.
the French speaking, the French and
italian democracies, in heir common
effort Of labor and sacrifice. America
herself has not yet reached the most
supreme phase of the ordeal-the
may reach it before long. No one
doubts that when she doe she will
rise to it in the same spirit as we
have done and from the %bloodshed in
common there will spring, as, from a
most sacred s~eed-sowing, such a
harvest of canradeship and brother
hood as may sweeten much of the
future world down to far-distant gem
erations." =
Morning Post:
I'm entering the war America has
affected the destinies of Europe. From
henceforth the United States mus

"The resources of America are sc
great that, given the requisite prep
aration, America could fight Germany
alone. Therefore, while the German
armies. war worn and battered. are
waning. the forces opposed to then,
wax daily more powerful. .
And we in this country look forward
to the continuation of hi friendship

and England as a strong guarantee OF

 As each boy approached Mir. McAdoo he gave the prescribed scout salute. There was not trace of embarrass- ment-the scout training eliminates hat-hut each lad received his decora- tion. saluted and returned to his seat amid veritable thunder of applause

 "The efficiency of these scouts," said Mir. Wylle, ''is all owing to the train. ing they received last summer. Dr. w. N. Lipscomb for six weeks had them under supervision and training at Camp Dee Light and at the con- clusion of that period they won the United States Red Cross medal in a test the same as that given to any de partment of the organization.

They are the new order of Sikh boy scouts. and they wear the conventional khaki with pride, but il Is their green and white neck cloths and their red and white turbans that give them their Indian ptcturesqueness.
 Many interested spectators watched the ceremonies attending their organ ization. The boy scout troops of Shang- hal. the Wolf Cubs Cor junior scouts) and the Sikh troop formed into three sides of Il hollow square on the lawn of the Sikh Gurdwara, and the young Sikhs stood at attention in the center while Sir Everard Fraser k.

 The Sikh branch of the boy scout brotherhood is but another indication of the way this movement Is gaining In popularity throughout China. Re ports come from all parts of the coun- try of the interest and enthusiasm with which it is being taken up.
 One of the most pretentious displays occurred in Picking recently. when over hundred of the Tsing Hua college boys conducted Il hoy scout exhibition with much credit to themselves and pleasure to the spectators.
