Plans for the organiza tion of a national naval reserve of 60, 000 officers and men, upon which tho navy can draw for help In an hour of need, were announced at the Navy De partment. The plan Involves the organization of the retired officers and former en listed men of the navy so that they may be ready for service In an emerg ency; the organization of and training of the Coast Guard for naval service, and the training of volunteer civilians whose work acquaints them with the handling of boats. The Navy Department's statement on the plan la as follows: "In addition to the regular navy and state naval militias, the plan of organ ization contemplates a national naval reserve to be constituted as follows: "Retired Officers and Former En listed Men of the Navy The organiza tion of retired officers already exists, and a step toward securing a reserve of former enlisted men was taken last spring by Congress. While the results of this legislation have not been large during the two months It has been in effect, 110 men having been enrolled Up to September 1, 191.". it is believed that an increasing number of men, whose enlistments expire, w ill take advantage of the oiportunity offered; and it is al ready having the effect of Increasing the number of re-enlistments. Other Federal and State Branches. "Other Branches of the Federal and State Governments This means the coordination of the Coast Guard; that Is, the revenue cutter and life-saving services; the lighthouse service, the coast survey, the State Nautical Train ing Schools, the harbor police, In such manner as to fit readily into the naval service at short notice. Little legisla tion Is necessary to accomplish this", and the organization of this work is already under way. "Volunteer Civilians It Is believed that the reserve of personnel should total 50,000 officers and men. What Is particularly desired is not merely numbers, but Individuals who will be capable of doing the highly specialized service w hich exists In modern navies. For Instance, In war time the navy would need the services of possibly 1,000 additional radio operators; it would require local pilots for inside waters, help men, gunners, gasoline motor experts, signalmen, besides, of course, first-class seamen. The depart ment has had many letters asking whether an opportunity could be given to Individuals to take courses of train ing in these sieclalties. If the general plan Is approved, it is hoped that next summer courses of instructions cau be started, using reserves or other avail able .'hips, and giving to these who de sire three or four weeks of training so that they could become of some definite use if called uixin. Chance For Amateurs. "Any amateur radio operator, any yachtsman or motorboat enthusiast; In fact, any citizen with intelligence and application could learn how to fit Into some place where he might be needed. Possibly some form of certi ficates could be given at the close of Instruction, showing exactly what serv ices the individual is capable of per forming, the holder to be under no fur ther obligation than to keep the Navy Department at stated periods informed of his address."

KILL JOY ' to Per'-' LOOKT - "Copyright ) IL AMERICANS Two Victims of a Raid Across the Border. TROOPS PURSUE MEXICANS One of the Mexicans Is Killed, But the Balance Escape Three Ameri cans Had Been Kidnapped Near Brownsville By the Mexicans. Brownsville, Tex. The bullet-riddled bodies of two Americans who were kldnipped by Mexican bandits, about 12 miles north of here, were found In the bed of a dried lake. They were Earl Donaldson, a farm er, who came here from Fayette, Mo., two weeks ago, and an engineer named Smith, engaged In concrete construc tion work on an Irrigation canal. In a fight between a platoon of I'nited States Infantry and 16 out laws, one of the Mexicans was killed and the rest of the band put to rout. The fight occurred 11 miles north of here. None of the Americans were hurt. The band to which was ascribed the burning of a trestle north of here was held responsible for the kidnapping of three Americans and the burning of a pumping station. A contractor named Stanley Dodds managed to make his escape when the American troopers appeared and fired on the Mexicans. Dodds was said to have been un harmed by the outlaws because one of the band told the others that Dodds was a German. His hat and shoes, however, were taken. Dodds, on escaping from the kid nappers, went to a ranch house, where he telephoned regarding his safety. The other Americans were carried away by the Mexicans and their fate was not learned until their bodies were found. Lieutenant Faulkner, who com manded a detachment searching for outlaw Mexicans, reported that the automobile trucks bearing the Ameri cans were traveling along the old Alice stagecoach road, when a band was seen. Called upon to halt, six of the band showed fight, using an Irrigation canal as a trench, while 10 fled down the canal. The five, after a short fight, also escaped, leaving their dead comrade. Following a fight Aviation Lieuten ant Joseph C. Morrow, pilot, with Lieu tenant B. O. Jones, observer, reported that United States cavalry and Infantry there were well-disposed throughout the section In which there were be lieved to be from f0 to 80 Mexican bandits. Further fighting was ex pected. At the Fresno Irrigation Canal, the bandits fired probably a score of shots at Perry Clark, an American land clear ing contractor, but none took effect. A Mexican who saw and talked to members of the band, said they were trying to force the Mexican population of this section to join them. All were reported to be strangers in this sec tion.

The Arabic was sunk on August 20. The Nlcoslan reached Liverpool on August 21 and reported that she had been attacked by a submarine, but had managed to escape safely. Anticipated In Berlin. Berlin. The German Admlialty ad vanced the suggestion that the sub marine which may have torpedoed the steamer Arabic possibly had foundered or had been sunk by the British. A high official of the Admiralty, In again declaring that absolutely no news on the sinking of the Arabic was yet available, said:' "Would It not be lamentable if the submarine should have been lost and we should never learn what happened soon after the Arabic sank? I said we should" In all probability have the details by the end of August or early In September at the latest. Most of our boats which were on the west coast of England at the time have now returned, but none so far knows any thing about the Arabic. "It probably will be possible within a very short time I cannot say pre cisely how many days to tell whether our apprehensions regarding the sub marine are correct." The official would not say whether one or more of the submarines in ques tion Btill were out nor how long any one vessel had been away from its base, but stated suggestively: "They seldom remain out longer than three weeks and we usually get a report on any torpedoing operations In from 8 to 14 days rarely later than a fortnight after the occurrence."
