HUN NEWSPAP
 HAS ANTIDOTE FOR OPINIONS
Cologne zeitung Claims Ger man Public Aroused Over
 Generals Statement.
AMERICANS AT FRONT
 FIGHTING WELL"
Says Americans Not Milf
 tary Supermen and Less So in Other Respects.

Amsterdam, Aug. 21-An antidote for the opinions of Gems. Von Blume and Von Liebert, who see a menace in the large American army on the western front, already has appeared in the Cologne Zeitung. To calm the German public the Tuesday edition of the Zeitung contained a long article attempting to prove by statistics that American cannot possibly send 300,000 men to Europe in a month. The article declares that more than 40 troop ships already have been sunk. It continues:
 If the Americans at the front are fighting well, that does not need to cause surprise for it is the fine flower of American manhood which now is at the front namely, the old regular army, plus about 10000 of the most sturdy and most adventurous ele- ments, which all nations have, who volunteered at the outbreak of the war. Then there will be contingents recruited from the New England states who are the best educated and keenest fighters because their heart is in the business.
 "So we get an aggregate of from 100000 to 250,O00 picked men, but once these are used up the picture will be altered, because they cannot | be replaced"
 The Zeitung believes compulsory military service is widely opposed and | is evaded in the United States, and it ] builds hope on the slender basis that American casualty lists will increase this alleged repugnance. The article concludes with these arguments:
 "The Americans are not supermer militarily and less so than in other respects. America may build standard ships but she cannot turn out stand. ard soldiers.
 America has done more than many expected, even in America, but de spite all surprises American exper
 opinion that the full weight of hel
 military power will not develop 191!
 or even 1920 still holds good.'

Mrs. Losch had regained their poise and thoroughly come to realize that the occasion was one of those events that come along in ones pathway i'll life, they became resigned to the occa- sion and settled down for good even ing's enjoyment. For some time past MT. Losch has felt it his duty to take a theological course in some school and he has decided to enter Nyack)In- stitute this fall and will leave town in about two weeks. He has been employed as machinist in one of the Bridgeport factories, but feeling that he was called to another line of work he decided to make change this fall. Naturally he possesses many of the qualifications that will fit him for either missionary work or pastoral la bors, being of a studious bent of mind and possessing a pleasing mannerism, 1t is safe to assume that his services will be much in demand in whatever line he may be called. Mrs. Losch expects to take what Is known as a teachers training course, which will be of great use to her in the service she will render to the work in when they may be engaged. While both Mir. and Mrs. Losch will be greatly

DR, VINCENT TO SPEAK AT PARK
 SUNDAY NIGHT
Head of Rockefeller Foun-
 dation to Be at Patriotic Service.

Another obig attraction" as they say in theatrical circles, has been procured by the Bridgeport War Blu reau for the patriotic service at Sea side park next Sunday night. George Edgar Vincent, president of the Rockefeller Foundation of New York, is the man, and the fact that he wis ited Italy, France and Great Britain last spring in connection with work that the Rockefeller Foundation is doing, makes him a speaker much in demand at this time.
 Dr. Vincent is a son of Bishop John H. Vincent of the Methodist Episcopal church. He was born in Rockford, H., March 21, 1884. After completing his early education in Plainfield, N. J., he entered Yale and graduated with the degree of Bach eller of Arts in 1885. He was then associated with the Chautauqua in- stitution, of which his father was one of the founders. In 1892 he mar ried Louise Palmer of WiIkesbarre, Pa, and 1892 became a Fellow in Sociology in the University of Chi cago. He continued his graduate work and in 1896 received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. During the period of 1S96-1911 he became suc- cessively assistant professor, professor dean of the Freshman and Sophomore classes of the Art college and dean of the faculties. In 1911 he was elect ed president of the University of Minnesota, which has the largest number of enrolled students Of any similar institution in the country, with something over 13,0O0 students.
 In 1917 he was made president of the Rockefeller Foundation and the story that he was asked to name his | own salary. After debating whether or not he would accept the place, he | dcieded to do so, at the same salary | he received as head of the Minnesota | educational institution. thus avoid | ing the charge that he had been l bought" It goes without saying 1 that Dr. Vincent is an able man whose intimate knowledge of the
 front" gives his words weight.

 concert at Seaside park tomorrow

Arizona and the Red Cross

Arizona has gone over the top twice in the second Red Cross drive and is not done yet What it may do yet before the end of the drive conjectura have probably done better than other region of the country. The Pacific coast region according to reports received at Washington Saturday night was leading the country and had done better propor- tonately than the reported achievement of the whole coast region
 It is certain that the minimum of sOOo00 900 for the whole country will be largely overtopped it is probable that the gifts will reach quarter of a billion.
 This is doubly gratifying. It only assures relief to the suffering in such never contemplated in relief work. It shows that the war sentiment of the country is mounting and that the people no longer have illusions
 At first not sure that the war was popular. Perhaps it not. We may suppose that about a war for democracy civilization or hu- manity. All these objects were too abstract But we are in it At least half million of our boys are at the front and a million will be there before the end of the year. They have brought the nation into the war and all back of them now to stay until victory has been won
 The purses of the nation have been opened and will be kept open during the just as the doors of the Temple of Janus kept open whenever Rome was at war Every call upon the people will be more promptly answered than the preceding one They have become accustomed to giving and subscribing.

Keen Up the Search

The roundup Saturday night in search of men of draft without registration cards should be allowed to end with a single drive. Thorough as it was it not expected that it would take in all the slackers Those likely to be taken the ignorant and the unsuspecting. The real draft evader, who about the country is always his guard. He is among the first to detect signs of the round up and hide out. He is always expecting something of that kind. Unless he is among the first caught, he will escape the net
 The search in every community should be tinuous, day after day. and every person not known should be asked to give of himself.
 At the time the draft regulations promul- gated pointed out that they might be made very useful to the peace officers every community and that by of them many sought for criminals could be uncovered. If stranger is found without registration card he can at be inducted into the service.
 Some strangers find it convenient to change their names after leaving their home communities. If has registered before leaving and if his registration card bears a different name from that by which he is known now. that fact should be made known to the local board which issued the card That informa tion might and doubt would, locate many whose whereabouts had been anxiousy inquired about. If this search conducted thoroughly aid persstently in every community with a general under standing among peace officers, every criminal in the United States between the ages of twenty-one and thirty would be brought to the attention of the authorities somewhere.
 No doubt in many cases, such a search would be annoying to innocent persons but in these times must all bear annoyances and nconveniences. We may then be thankful if we have nothing worse to bear
