A recent statement of the Secretary
of War indicates that the War De-
part m n has
Five Hundred sent at lie t
Thousand Men. rr.n.. r,.,
statement conveys no definite idea Of
the fighting strength added to the
battle lines of the allies in desperate
need of men.
force thus sent over is composed of
fighting men and that, even If not or
ganized. il is a considerable addi-
ton to the defense. Unfortunately this
is far from So
1t is generally accepted. with prob
ability OF truth. that the department
rushed over the bulk of these men
upon alarm resulting from the Ger
mans breaking the British line and
threatening TO separate the British
forces from the French. Shipping was
not available to send over any con-
siderable Rrte until the commandeer-
ed Dutch ships could he put in order
and the lent ships from the Eng
l:sn sent TO United States ports of en-
barkation. IL this was so. the num-
ber on the other side UP to that time
could not have been large
1t is fair inference from general
reports that three divisions. 10000
men. were on the front in one or more
of less exposed sectors, the general
idea being that of troops so employ
ed one division is in the trenches. an
other is resting and a third is engag-
ed back of the lines. AS the United
States troops still are holding these
sectors. ii is doubtful whether more
than one of these divisions could be
diverted to aid on the Somme-say.
5000 meih>Z
it is estimated in crude way that
not fewer than 10000 men are train
ing for special duties. such as artil-
iery and machine gun fire and other
units. This estimate is conservative.
The statement of the Secretary Of
War to congressional committee
was that the ratio of combatants to
nom -combatants was six to four IL
that ratio holds good to the present
time at least 100000 of the total
force are not available for the fight
ing line.
If so, it may he concluded that not
more than 100000 of the United States
expeditionary force were available
for duty on the Somme. with 10000
more holding the sectors.
1t is known that many of these men
did not arrive in France before the
last week of April or the early part
of May. If brigaded with French or
English troops some delay was un-
avoidable in equipping them with the
military rifle and ammunition of the
troops they were to fight with.
Shaking down the newly arrived or
ganizations also must take some little
time. 1t is improbable that a large
part of the 100000 took active part on
the fighting front.
The unconfirmed report that the
United States troops can be spared
from the front carries the suggestion
that American forces are not quite as
large as popular belief is willing to
credit.

GERMAN WANTS
NAME CHANGED

SALINAS. May 3.-After being
subjected to great humiliation ever
since America entered the war, be-
cause OF the war. Carl Bernard De
triech Kaiser today petitioned the
superior court OF Monterey county to
have his name changed to Carl Der.
nard All.
The reasons given in the petition
for the change OF name are as fol
lows: The United States is at war
with the Imperial government OF
Germany, whose ruler is known as
the kaiser: whose name is synony-
nous with autocracy which is the op.
posite of democracy; cruelty, which is
opposite 10 humanity; bsrbarism,
which has no respect for civilization;
Prussian militarism, which hates
Christianity.
The petitioner recites that he is q
native born American citizen, having
been born in Nebraska. and believes
in all the principles of the U. S. gov
eminent; that daily he is subjected
TO great humiliation by people whom
he meets because OF the name OF his
ancestors but changed to Kaiser by
German customs over which he haL
/ no voice.
