GERMAN SHIPS TO CARRY U.S. GOODS Senator Knox Declares It Is a Crime Not to Take the Step Washington, May 1. Every Ger-I man ship now lying in an American j harbor is to be taken over by this j government and put Into commission carryig food and munitions to our allies in Europe, if the House acts favorably upon a resolution passed by the Senate late yesterday. Roards of survey are to be appointed by the Secretary of the Navp to determine the value of these ships, this infor mation being for use in any judicial action that may be taken after the I war. Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, precipitated action when he intro duced a resolution requesting the President to requisition all vessels of alien enemies of. the United States and to use them in the prosecution of the war against the Imperial Ger man Government in such trade and manner as will, in his judgment, best subserve the interests of the United States and its allies. Senator Knox declared it "would be not a blunder hut a crime to hesi tate longer in taking the step to meet Germany's ruthless submarine war fare. He called attention to the Ger man cancellous announcement that the submarine campaign had de stroyed 1,600.000 tons of ships in sixty days and pointed out that there is an "almost equal amount in our ports which should be made the tar get of these attacks." "Every hour is important," said Senator' Lodge, "I hope the Presi dent is having these ships prepared now and that they will put to sea at once." "They are being put in shape." said Senator Smith, of eGorgia, "and J some of them will put to sea prob- j ably this week." Burke Will Speak on War's Greatest Bond Issue From Wide Viewpoints "The War's Greatest Bond Issue.

Dr. N. D. Hillis of j Brooklyn wil be another speaker. Mr. Burke Is probably better quali fied to discus® the seven billion-dol lar bond issue just passed by Con gress and make it plain lo business men than any other Pennsylvanian. Mr. Burke was for many years a member of Congress and a member of its committee on banking and currency. Mr. Burke now devotes all of his time to his extensive law prac tice in Pittsburgh where he is also general counsel for the Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Burke's address will be in ac cordance with the spirit of the day because the members of the Harris burg Chamber of Commerce are in tensely interested in the great bond issue and the way in which it will j effect them especially in regard to i taxation. Balfour Thanks Red Cross For Work Done in War Washington, D. C.. May 1. Mr. Balfour has taken occasion to thank | the American Red Cross for the work j it has done in the war in this mes- | sage to Red Cross headquarters: "It needs no words from me to tes tify that the American Red Cross has j already won its spurs by countless ; works of mercy on battlefields of i many countries. By generosity and ] by personal Service it has helped the allies in manifold ways during the last thirty months. In the name of all the j wounded in the united ranks of the allies. I know I may thank this or ganization for untold benefits receiv ed. And I feel sure that under the lately developed circumstances of hap piest augury, i,ts labors of love and I pity will only Increase and multiply until this war is ended."
