Germans Plan TO Send Army TO Conquer Egypi|

BY Newspaper Enterprise Association.
AMSTERDAM, July After France
is crushed-Egyptl
That in a nutshell is the German
scheme Of conquest now being planned.
Although not quite so confident as
they were before the spring offensive,
the Huns stlll hope TO capture Paris
and occupy the seacoast from Dun
kirk to Havre.
That accomplished, a great army will
be sent to help the Turks seize the Suez
canal and place all northern Africa un-
der German control.
win War In East"
This campaign is made plain by ar
ticles I'm government-inspired German
newspapers, written by junker leaders,
who emphasize the fact that Germany
can never become a world-power so
long as she is shut up in Europe Due
10 the failures on the western front,
the German public is being taught that
the war VIII be won IN the far east ana
in Africa.
To allay the fear that no German
land victories can break the British
naval blockade and give Germany ac-
cess 10 the sources OF raw materials,
it is maintained that the Germans VIII
be able 10 strike successfully not only
at Egypt, but through Persia and AZ
ghanistan at India.
DR.. Paul Rohrbach in a recent article
in "Deutsche Politik" gives this ex-
preston of the German plan:
"There must be a complete reversal
of the situation on the Euphrates and
In Palestine as soon as we can effect
/ great increase in our strength there.
rhe Enbllsh may accumulate in Egypt

,oon as, the war In Europe ended, we

Editorial Opinion
FEDERAL WIRES

From the New York Tribune.
The President by proclamation as
sumesa possession, control and operation
OF all the telephone and telegraph IA
cilities in the country for the duration
Of the war, and then Immediately dele
gates those responsibilities to the Post
master General. who, In turn, is au-
thorized to perform his duties through
the owners and managers and existing
organizations for so long and 10 such
an extent as he will. This is the out
come Of dispute between the tele-
graph companies and some of their en-
ployes. The National War Labor Board
awarded the employees the right 20 or
ganize; the companies, mainly the West
ern Union, Obstlnately refused to recog
nize that right as some Of the employees
urged 10, and a strike was imminent
was actually voted by the telegrsphers.
The government asked for time TO get
a bin through Congress, which tooA
only a few days; and now, under the
terms thereof, the government Is in pos
session OF the telegraph and telephone
companies, and the employees are trans
ferred at ono stroke from the category
Of private industry 10 that Of Federal
service.
The right to organize. which the
telegraphers were going TO strike for,
is perhaps gained; but the right to
strike has been lost, Federal telegraph
ars cannot 80 on strike. They are in

WILL CHANGE NAME

International News Service:
ROCHESTER,, Ind, Feb. 27.-
Herman Gross of South Bend, today
notified the Rochester newspapers
that the name Of the Frances shop
here would Immediately be changed,
although the new title has not been
selected. Speaking of the action Of
the South Bend Frances shop, in
demanding the change because Of
their incorporation, he declared hat
he had been ignorant of the fact,
and that he had no intention of
stealing the name. Referring to the
advertisement which stated hat the
Rochester store is a branch Of the
South Bend institution, he asserted
that IT, was the intention to give
the impression that the local store
bought with Gross and Gross Of Ca
talpa av., South Bend. but that the
wrong idea evidently had been ex-
pressed by his brother, Eugene
Gross. manager of the Rochester
business. who was in Chicago to-
day. The local store opened last
Friday.

OPPOSES
POST WAR POWER
Indiana Senator Would With
hold Authority From PreSi-
dent After Conflict.

BRIDGEPORT. Conn, Feb. 81
Declaring there is no cause for
alarm in comforting vast powers on
Pres't Wilson for war purposes. Sen.
James Z. Watson, republican, Of
Indiana, in an address before the
Manufacturers association here to-
night said the only danger would
be in falling TO limit this power TO
the period of the war.
Many are alarmed lest we drift
into autocracy," said the senator,
but very much depends upon the
presidents intention in asking the
power and the length Of time for
which il is bestowed. If we con-
fine the term and operation of this
authority TO the period Of the war,
there is 20 just cause for alarm.
But if We confer it for periods long
after the war then there is grave
cause for apprehension.
This bestowal Of power upon tn
president in war time and for war
purposes Is not only not dangerous.
but may be and much of it is neces-
sary. But to bestow this authority
on him now and expressly provide
that it shall continue long after the
a is over. is precisely the same
as if he had sought this great au-
thority long before the war began"
Sen. Watson declared that not
withstanding the fears of many
people, the constitution is still in
force and the president holds his
position by virtue of its provisions.
He said the congress had conferred
no additional power upon the presi-
dent as commander-in-chief of the
army and navy. The only addition
al power which had been conferred.
he explained. was that concerned
with the industrial life of the ma
ton.

MAN CHOICE
Of JAIL Or ARMY
Judge GiImer fOrgetS Repri-
mand Dealt Former Judge
by u. S. Officer.

Forgetful apparently of the rep
rimand that the government through
SIS local recruiting officer. delivered
to former City Judge Herbert D.
Warner. while the latter was on the
bench, for giving prisoners a choice
between joining the army or navy.
or going TO prison. Judge Frank
Gilmer appears 20 be putting him
self in line for the same sort Of
call-down.
we do not want men for the
army or navy who ought 10 be in
Jail" was the advice 10 Judge War
ner, voiced by the local recruiting
officer. and if offenses have been
committed that deserye punishment,
that is up to you, not US. The army
and navy are not penal institutions. a."
Choice OF joining the army or
going TO the state penal farm was
given John Buckner of Battle
Creek. Mich, in city court Wednes-
day morning by Judge Gilmer.
Buckner chose the army.
BUckner, in company with Ken
meth Cole and Virgil Collins, also Of
Battle Greek, was picked up by the
police at the interurban station
Tuesday night on a charge of loiter-
ing. Buckner's companions told
Judge Gilmer that all three were
on their way 10 Lafayette, and had
been told hat they could not re-
main at the railroad station until
their train arrived. so they went 10
the interurban station to see if they
could not get an earlier train out.
Buckner had only 81, but he had
his registration card, which showed
that he is subject TO call by the
draft board for service. The court
thought that the young man would
be better off in the army than out
of it. evidently, for ne gave him the
choice OF enlisting or going TO the
penal farm. Buckner said that he
was willing to enlist if he were al
lowed to go. He has already been
examined by the Battle Greek board,
and is now awaiting the call to the
army.
Each of the other two arrested
with Buckner are under 81 years
old. The cases were taken under
advisement by the court, pending
the action of Buckner in enlisting.
Later it was found impossible for
Buckner to enlist as he is o sub
ject to call, so the cases against the
three arrested for lettering Wee
dismissed.
