landed upon Yankee soil or be on the
high seas steaming thither before the
end OF next October.
You mothers, wives and relatives can
safely bank upon the foregoing as the
arranged plan and purpose OF President
Wilson. Russia is wholly and entirely
out of the zone OF future American army
operations and unless all signs fail
there will be no possibility of our troops

chairman of the shipping Board. who
has just startled the business mind OF

fleet. Commencing March We have
an assured monthly troopship capacity
for 100000 men in sixty-four American
owned and chartered boats. There are
row twenty passenger ships IN German
ports. including the huge lmperator and
Bismarck. which, II We get the use OF, Ms

soldiers additional. Provided We get
these German ships and our good friends
the British. with occasional loans OF
passenger ships, continue to be az help
ful and cunsiderate in the future as they
have been IN the past. we can move more
,old,ers home than our ports can take
care Of.

Then for the summer months we can

would average 500 soldiers each. You
