Kahn Says Army

CLEVELAND, July 27.-An $1S,OO0,-
100000 army bill for 1919-'2o to meet
the vast increase in the military es-
tablishment proposed by the War De-
partment, was forecast by Representa-
tive Kahn, of California. ranking mi
nority member of the House Military
Committee, in an address here to-day
before the League of Republican Clubs.
"This means additional Liberty
bonds" Representative Kahn said; ut
means additional taxation; it means,
II 1t means anything, that the Ameri-
can people must be prepared to give
their all. if need be. Perhaps the time
will come when every individual in
the United States will have to content
himself with the barest necessaries of
life and surrender everything he pos
sesses or earns beyond those bare
necessaries to aid his government.
We have not begun to make sacri-
iices in these United States. We do
not yet know the pinch Of hunger-I

but we will be the better prepared for
possible eventualities if we begin now

IN Keeping down the growing popular
dlscontent over food difficulties. In
the diocese Of Munster, Westphalia,
the official War Food Department has
arranged for special lectures through

regarding food scarcity and against the
severity of punishments for small

There also are many complaints in

Especial Dispatch to Tho Tribuns)

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Germany
goes to great pains to impress neutrals
visiting German war prison camps
with the belief that prisoners of war
are not only humanely treated. but pro-
vided with extraordinary comforts and
lloeral board. The Belgian Legation
gave out a statement to-day showing
the German method of receiving such
neutral visitors. 1t said:
M. lie Chevalier Ernest de Laminne
a Belgian prisoner of war, has been for
three years In the camps Of Germany.
Sent to Switzerland because of his
health, he succeeded in concealing a
series OF notes taken during his cap
tivity. The publication of these notes
mas been begun by La Revue Beige.

Slackness Laid to Malvy
Defendant, Denying Charge
Cites Arrest of American
Woman

PARIS, July 27.-Witnesses testify
ing to-day at the trial Of Louis Malvy
former Minister of the Interior, or
the charge of treason, declared that
M. Malvy had shown slackness in deal
ing with suspected foreigners living
in Paris. In response M. Malvy gave
instances to prove that the Prefecture
and the detective service had acted
energetically in this respect. The
former Minister cited, especially, the
case Of Madame Hoppe, an American
woman, regarding whose case Jules
Cambon, he declared. had transmitted d
sharp protest from Ambassador
Sharp.
A Paris dispatch on March 7, 1915
during the period of NJ. Malvy's ad-
istration, announced the arrest of
Madame Hoppe for conducting an
alleged correspondence with a German
officer, then under treatment in a
Paris military hospital. The woman,
who was sent to a concentration camp
was, however. declared to be of Ger
man nationality and there was no
suggestion that the case had any
American connections.

Driver Joins Marines

MoNTCIAIR, N. j., July 27.-There
will be many Sunday dinners here to-
morrow without the usual ice cream,
because Frank V. Cranley's patriotic
emotions overcame him in the midst of
his ice deliveries.
Cranley was driving his ice wagon
along Bloomfield Avenue, when he saw
departing quota of selective service
men marching down an intersecting
street attended by cheering crowd.
Cranley saw man he knew in an
automobile, bound for the celebration,
and he jumped into the car. His horse
cropped grass along the curb and the
ice dripped and dripped. The parade
went past Marine Corps recruiting
station and there Cranley got out.
Some hours later his boss received this
telephone message from him:
Pm going to Paris Island with the
marines. The ice wagon is on Bloom
field Avenuetield Avenue. Goodby."
