Bernstorf Should
Have Hanged AS
Lusitania Sunk

Newark, N. April Count
Won Bernstorff and his aids should
have been hanged at the time of the
sinking of the Lusitania, Bishop
Richard j. Cook of Helena, Mont, de-
clared today in addressing the New
ark Methodist Episcopal Conference,
America should have entered the
war when the water was fine,' as it
would have heartened Great Britain,
Belgium and France, he added. "But
we are now in to stay and the only
peace the American nation will in
dorse will be peace coming from un-
conditional surrender. The house Of
Hohenzoll&rn has been from its be-
ginning a house of thieves and scoun-
drels that never respected the laws Of
God or man."

Destructive Fire
This Morning

The residence of Mr.. R. D. Fry, Jr.,
on West Church street, was badly
damaged by fire about $3.50 this morn
ing. The building was modern one
story cottage and had but recently
been remodeled and improved in
many ways. The fire originated from
a defective kitchen fue and had gain
ed considerable Roadway before it
was first discovered. The roof of the
building was almost completely burn
ed off, and the part of the building
left standing is badly damaged by
water. The fire truck did splendid
work after its arrival and no doubt
saved several adjoining buildings;
however, the truck was few minutes
late in arriving, caused by the engine
baking. Most all the household eff
fects were removed, but were dam
aged to some extent. The loss is es-
timated at about $4,000, with $500
insurance on the building we are in
formed.

PLAN FOR SOLDIERS
 IS REJECTED

Methods of aiding and re-establish- ing soldiers who have been dis charged and have no definite plans for their future, were discussed yes terday at a luncheon given by Fed eral Food Administrator Robert Sco- vile to a number of prominent citi- zens. Among those present, besides MT. Scoville, were: Public Utilities Commissioner Joseph w. Alsop, vice chairman of the state council of de- fense; Colonel William H. Hall of Wilmington and A. W. Burritt, federal labor agent in Bridgeport.
 It was as result of a letter sent by Franklin K. Lane, secretary of the interior to Governor Holcomb and the state council that MT Scoville decided 10 investigate the inevitable situation arising already by reason Of soldiers being discharged with no plans of their own for earning a living. Yes terday afternoons meeting promptly concuTred with MT. Scoville in reject ing in practically all of it's phases, the widely heralded program of Sec retary Lane for ellisting discharged soldiers in the reclamation of lands, chiefly in the South, West and North west, the general idea including a sort of colonization arrangement
 In Connecticut there are no state lands for such reclamation or colon izing. As one solution of what was best for Connecticut-and nobody seemed to offer a better one-Mr. ScovilIe suggested that Connecticut should not wait for any national re- storation movement, or for any ex- ample from other states, but should start with a sufficient legislative aid if possible, by having created an ad- visory board which, after passing on the soldier applicants qualifications, should arrange for a farm and home for him or for a city jo3 and home. Mir. Scoville was confident that pri- vate enterprise and philanthropy would assist in providing any capital not furnished through state aid, or through federal and state aid, if Con- gress should make such appropria- tiOn.
