Greensboro, N. C., April 4—As In Ireland, Egypt, South Africa and In- dia, so here in the South secret agents of the imperial German government. fomenting revolt under the: have be pretence df spreading Kultur. They have been insidiously - working to Yting about &n uprising of the negroes agalnst the whites. The facts are difficult of access, and for obvious reasons are discussed most guardedly by those who know them best. A Southerner hates to talk of a trouble with the negro. He prefers to prepare silently to meet it, and that is what is now going on in the South from North Carolina to the Gulf. No one knows how serious the situ- ation is. The Southerner counts heav- |, ily on the loyalty of a great majority of the blacks and fears at the most local demonstrations by such lawless and reckless elements of the negro population as the German agents have been able to reach. Many well known negroes are working earnestly to counteract or “backfire” the Ger- man propaganda. The Kaiser's apos- tles of Kultur have probably much misconceived the negro character. They could easily underestimate its loyalty and mistake a kind of chronic discontent for a spirit of rebellion. Nevertheless, the colored population has recently been showing symptoms of unusual ill-temper, and there are some cool-minded Southern men who are prepared before the thing is over to see a return of conditions similar to those of ‘‘reconstruction days.” But what the German agents have been working to bring about is a black rebellion through the South—a rising of the negroes to overthrow white do- minion. The idea of this thing is said first to have been ‘broached in this country at a conference of German Y G i 1 l agents, Mexican revolutionists and negro agitators in San Diego, Cal, in April, '1916. The plan-developed at this meeting was that in the event of gn.r between Germany and the United tates the American negroes should rise, free themselves of e white man’s hand, seize Texas and turn it into a‘black republic. Mexican and Japanese were to have:- equal rights with the negro. This plot is referred to by the negroes who know of lt i the *“plan of San Diego.” NO DRIVE AGAINST EASTER GLOVES | ‘We are headquarters for all the best makes.

Easter Sunday Melms a NEW HAT A New Hat Means RUSSIA BY TEUTONS | Copenhagen Politiken Believes Berlin Hopes to See Russians Effect ) Own Downfall. Copenhagen, via. London, April 4.— A “personage panticularly well formed politically and militarily, who is easily recognizable as Col. Von Haeften of the general staff, in charge of the military department of the for- eign office, has informed the Politiken that there {s no prospect of a Ger- man offensive on the Riga front. Col. Von Haeften says: “The spring thaw that is now setting in is enough in itself to deprive an offensive of any chance of sugcess. Even if the Germans succeedéd in taking the Russlan positions it would be impos- sible to get artillery and supplies for- ward for an advance on Petrograd. They would be hopelessly clo; Fged % The paper continues: “The” state- rents of the German general staff which have certain probabilities, are another example of the German de- termination to quiet Russian appre- Lension in every possible way. They are issued, as is clearly evident from the tone of the varions newspaper comments, with the design of not in- terfering by outside pressure with the growth of the peace sentiment in Rus- sia and particularly with the spirit of disorganization. = The .belief is cherished that the Russians, if left to themselves, will inevitably continue to quarrel over internal questions, whereas the menace of a strong Ger- man offensive would weld all Russian narties together in defense of ‘their national existence.” U. 5.

An official announcement at the Navy De- partment said steps had been taken to effect a working agreement. All the closely guarded secrets of submarine catching, developed by the Entente navies, are expected to come into possession of the American navy now that the United States is ready to ‘enter the war. In a general’ way it is known that |y means of nets, airplanes, trawlers and swift submarine chasers, the British navy -has gathered in many German submarines—the estimates in some cases have been placed as high as 300. During the first month of the campaign of ruthlessness, it was reliably reported here that the En- tente chasers took twenty submarines | in their bag. As the capminy of Ger- l man navy yards—now thn? a standard the speedy development of -a subma. rine defense is the first essential,.and, ! all the genius and ability of the will be devoted to that end. ! take for granted that' Germany- willi} not wait for aggressive action by the Q‘ United States, but will seek to terror-{ ize America‘ by sending 'submarines to bombard coast towns and raid’ shipping on this\ side of the Atlantic.
