A. and B. society stands high among fraternal organizations of this city in the num- ber and proportion of its members who have enlisted in active service in the army and the navy of the United States. The society from the begin- ning of the war has realized the great- ness of it and the need for men, and the members as a whole and individ- ually, have co-operated to the fullest extent of their ability with the gov- ernment to undertake to prosecute the war to a successful finish. In a measure the spirit of enthus- iasm is quite natural in a body of en- ergetic young men, but nevertheless it is commendable. The society has left the manner of showing its patriotism ta the several members and each has done something redounding to the credit of the country, the society and himself. Many have looked askance at | the glamor and glory of immediate emn- listment and have gone about the ac- complishment of their duty quietly and retiringly. The farm or home garden has occupied the time of some who have well deserved the title of .‘Soldiers of the Commissary.” Others have considered their present work the most useful and advisable way of doing their bit. The older members have alded the more youthful with kindly encouragement and counsel. The keen spirit of patriotism in this society has been applauded by their fellaw citizens, admired by their elders and parents, and approved by high officials of the army and govern- ment. There is great variety in the choices of the individuals as to which branch of the service they prefer. The most popular has been the Connecticut Na- tional Guard. perhaps because in serv- ing in this organization the men serve their native state as well as country. The navy seems to be of second choice and about half a dozen men have felt the call to patrol the Atlantic and deal destruction to the submarine. Following is a list of the members who are engaged in some active branches of the service of Un- cle Sam. Raymond Queenin, 125 Fairview, First Inf., C. N. G., Co. E, regular member before war. .

SHOULD MAKE PEAGE MOVE Senator Lewis Pleased by German Chancellor’s Speech Washington, July 24.—Interpreting the speech of Germany's new chan- cellor, Michaelis, as a bid for peacc Senator Lewis, of Illinois, yesterday urged upon the senate that this is an appropriate hour for the United States to seriously consider this bid. At the outset of his speech Senator Lewis said the suggestion that he take up this matter in the senate hud come to him in telegrams received from representative German citizens of Chicago, “whose loyalty in the present trying hour I can assure the senate I can myself attest.” Senator Lewis said that after read- ing the speech of the German chan- cellor he had reached a wholly dlffer- ent view from that of Lloyd George. “It is palpable to me,” said Sen- ator Lewls, “that Germany ig ready for honorable peace, but having pre- viously offered it, she will now wait for the terms of peace to be sug- gested by the others. To my mind it is a bid to the United States which was the one nation which had asked for terms of peace and the one nation which at one time had submitteq the humane proposition of peace without victory. ~ “I am strongly moved to feel that we in the United States hava not given the attention to the speech of Michaells which it would bear and which, if T am not altogether in er- ror, it was intended-to suggest.” Lewis’ Terms. Senator Lewis outlined the terms of peace which he sald he believed Ger- many would accept. They are: First—The restoration of Belgium. Second—The restoration of ' the possessions which Germany holds of France. Third—The return of Serbia, Bul- garia and Rumania to their previous status. Fourth—The return to Germany by the Allies of the German colonies in Africa. Fifth—A board to be constituted upon which there shall be the repre- sentatives of the different warring countries, to consider means of pre- venting the return of war. Sixth—The restoration to Belgiim of a fund to which all the warring powers would contribute, Seventh—The return Lorraine to France. Lewis’ Speech Unpopular. Senator Borah, Senator McCumber, of Dakota, and Senator Penrose, Pennsylvania, took issue with Senator Lewis. Sen- ator McCumber pointed out that the German chancellor in his speech had predicted -that the U-boats would bring Great Britain to her knees and had suggested that the aid of the United States to the Allies would be negligible. Senator Penrose sarcastically re- marked: “l surmise from reading the speech that Germany will be ready to hand Dback Alsace-Lorraine to France!” In reply to questions as to what would happen in the case of Italy’s boundaries, Senator Lewis said that this matter would have to be con- sidered by a board made up of rep- resentatives of the warring power | In suggesting that Belgium be re- stored through a fund contributed by all the warring powers, Senator Lewis said: ““My desire is that Belgium should have her future peacc assured, and one of the ways to assure it is that the fund to restore it be made up by | contributions of all the agencies par- ticipating in the peace, and that they stand as sponsors thereafter for per- manent peace for Belgium.” Senator Borah asked whether Sen- ator Lewis had taken into consider- ation the future form of governmeit of the German empire, which, he sald, “seems to be now the great con- troiling question. It has been stated repeatedly that the world would not be safe for democracy so long as the power which now controls Germany continues to dominate that empire. It seems to me that Germany has by no means approached the point where she would permit any outside power to modify her form of government.” of Alsace- ‘Hohenzollerns Losing Grip. Senator Lewis said that he did not think President Wilson had ever in- tended to intimate that the United States would direct the form of gov- ernment of Germany, but that it was [“Black Leaf 40”] NICOTINE- SULPHATE SPRAY FOR POTATO LICE C. A. HJERPE 73 ARCH STREET his wish that conditions should arise within Germany that would distate a transformation of the government and install some republican farm. He said that he thought the German chancel- lor’s speech was dictated by fear that, unless something was done, there would be internal revolution. “It is my opinion,” said Senator Lewls, “that the House of Hohenzol- dern would rather have peace upon the terms of the Allies and retain power than to have a peace which would put it out of power and be suc- ceeded by another power.” Senator Borah suggested that the United States would be doing a favor to mankind if it stayed in the fight long enough to insure a breakdown of the German government. Senatar McCumber questioned Sen- ator Lewis about the future of Turkey in Europe. Senator Lewis suggested that the board of adjusters represent- in all the warring countries, suggested by himself, would be made up of Christlans by a large majority and that they would look to the safeguard- ing of Christians in Turkey. Senator King, of Utah, declared it folly to discuss peace, and contended | Dr. Michaels' speech was not suscep- tible to Senator Lewis’ construction. “It was a tribute to Bethman-Holl- weg,”’ said Senator King, “an indorse- ment of the policy of blood, cruelty, rapacity and wickedness which has characterized the German prosecution of the war. It indorsed the ruthless submarine palicy and boasts of its in- famous success. It seems to me that the senator, in a desire to seek peace has been intent on reading into the speech sentiments never expressed by the German chancellor. “We're in this fight to win, and wiil not talk peace until Germany sues for peace and rights the wrongs and foul crimes she has committed. Let’s talk no more of peace, but fight to win this war for democracy and the warld.” CLATM G. O. P. IS FAVORABLE. Whitman Accused of Favoring Repub- licans on Exemption Boards. Washington, July 24.—A protest that Governor Whitman is selecting only republicans on appeal exemp- tion boards was made to Secretary Tumulty yesterday by of several upstate New York county committees. They told Mr. Tumulty this condlition is general and profi- ised to flle a written complaint. The appeal boards for New York have not been announced by the war de- partment. chairmen Albany, N. Y., July 24.—Gov. Whit- man stated last night that there was absolutely no foundation for any pro- test by several up-state county com- mittees that he was selecting only re- publicans on the appeal boards. “As far as I know the two domi- nant political parties are about even- ly divided. In fact I believe that the democrats predominate in New York,” the governor said. “I have tried to nominate men who are quali- fled for the work without regard to party distinction. The nominations were made to President Wilson for appointment and as they have not been announced yet there is abso- lutely no ground for protest. M. A. C. PROFESSOR TO AID U.:S.
