Cologne Gazette Says Wilson's
Reply to Pope Is Gro
tesque Nonsense.
PEACE DOOR NOT LOCKED
Rotterdam Catholic Organ Sees .in
Germany Development of Condi
tions on Lines President
Wilson Demands.
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 1. President
Wilson's reference in his reply to Pope
Benedict's peace proposals to the Ger
man autocracy as .distinct from the
tierman people Is commented upon un
favorably by the German press. The
Tageblatt. of Berlin. Bays:
"President Wilson speaks of demo
cratization of Germany, which we also
desire; but it is an internal question
end one we consider forbidden territory
for foreigners as a condition of peace."
According to a telegram to a local
agency, the Cologne Gazette, in com
menting on President Wilaon'a reply,
says :
"Kvery word of President Wilson's
note is crotesque nonsense. The climax
of all the nonsense is that the German
people are groaning under a cruel gov
ernment. Has not the entire German
people, rich and poor. Socialist and Con
servative, continually repeated that it
stands firm for the Emperor and the
empire? The solution of the puzzle is
that Mr. Wilson wants to persevere
with the war. America's business needs
the war at this conjuncture. America's
future needs the bis Army that is Just
In the making."
Text of Xote Published.
The full text of President Wilson's
reply to the Pope was reproduced with
out comment in the Friday noon edition
of the Koelnische Zeitung.
BERLIN, via London, Sept. 1. Pres
ident Wilson's reply to the Pope's peace
note was published generally by the
newspapers this morning and in the
editorial comment Mr. Wilson is bit
terly denounced on the score of the
mote's tone and tendency. The Lokal
Anzeiger says:
"President Wilson declines the Pope's
mediation with the same mass of
swollen, phrases with which he has al
ready satiated the. German peoples.
We are told that the war is not being
waged against the German nation, but
against the 'masters.' The absolute
mendacity of Mr. Wilson's phraseology
becomes apparent when his' statement
as to the rights of nations who are
'capable of shaping their own destinies
is opposed to the wish of the German
people to be governed by their very
'masters.' Mr. Wilson, therefore, does
Jiot intend to 'give us our liberty, but
to deprive us of liberty to arrive at
our own decisions. ;
Desire Is to Prolong War.
"For that matter this whole mass of
words has as its purpose the expres
sion of the intention to prolong the
war at any price. In this resolve, Mr.
WilBon, who is fighting for the free
dom of mankind, orders peace meetings
dispersed . and pacifists arrested.4"
"This war has exposed, in its like
ness much that is low and contempti
ble: its remaining task was to exhibit
a hero like -this coldly calculating
mathematician, whom a singular fate
in a momentous hour has given the
power over -100,000,000 people."
LONDON, Aug. 31. The Saturday Re
view, referring to. President Wilson's
note to Pope Benedict as "the most
forcible state paper issued during the
war," says: -
"We cannot remember . that ever be
fore the sovereign of a great nation
with an army and a fleet in existence
has been told that he is a liar and a
cheat with whom no treaty can be made.
This terrible insult, eo amply deserved,
comes with great effect from a Nation
that is not, like Britain, a European
rival of Germany, and cannot be
described as jealous of German trade,
Message to Germany, Says Shaw.
"President Wilson's reply to the Pope
Is really a message to Germany," said
George Bernard Shaw today in an inter
view with the Associated Press. "Re
duced to the vernacular, it means: "Be
come a republic and we will let up o
you; go on kaisering and we will smash
you. '
THE HAGUE, Sept. 1, The Roman
Catholic Maaebode, of Rotterdam.
thinks that President Wilson's answer
to the papal note, examined from a
practical angle, warrants the conclusion
that the door of peace is neither barred
nor bolted.
"For contrary to logical reasoning
from his premises." it says, "President
Wilson does not want the war carried
to a bitter end nor would he refuse to
deal with the present German govern
ment, but only if it truly represented
the will of the nation as expressed by
genuine parliamentarizatlon." '
The Maasbode sees a gradual devel
opment of conditions in Germany on
the lines President Wilson desires,
Why then, it asks, "could not the Presi
dent have declared himself in principle
with the pope?"
ROME. Aug. 30. (Delayed.) Count
de Sails, the British Minister at the
Vatican, who presented President Wu
son's reply to Pope Benedict, received
the impression that thepope, although
disappointed at the President's refusal
to undertake negotiations on the lines
laid down in the papal note, was
touched by the nobility and dignity of
the President's reply and courtesy
toward him personally.
The holy father, he added, also felt
unevea at tne unpityinff condemnation
-iermany a perfidy.
PARIS. Sept. 1. President Wilson's
note, being virtually addressed .to the
German people, there is more than usual
interest in the latest account -of the
German people's conditions and feel
ings as related by an army nurse named
Dewinne. a Belgian, who has Just re
turned after 34 months of captivity
in Germany. As a nurse, he enjoyed

rhue. With regard to the belief of
me Germans, ne said: -
People Sore of Victory.
"The Germans believe hard as iron
that Germany was attacked and is only
defending her existence. Not only do
the people repeat this, but intellectu
als, doctors and officers with whom I
talked are so convinced of this that
they are ready to make the greatest
sacrifice."
" 'Why did not your country lef ns
pass through?" asked one doctor. "Then
you would not have been a prisoner and
your country would have escaped the
horrors of war."
" 'We wished to keep our given
word," I answered. "'We defended our
selves when attacked.'
But your country was conniving
with England and Prance,' he retorted.
"So one wonders when some particle
of truth will penetrate minds so obstin
ately closed. I have never-met a Ger-

SOME AMERICANS ELECT TO RE
MAIS 1ST FRENCH ARMY.
Law Regarding: We wing; of Decora
tions May Be Amended for Bene
fit of Honored Americans.
PARIS, Sept. 1. American aviators
serving- in the French army, including
the relatively small group forming the
Lafayette Escadrille, have been can
vassed by American officers as to
whether they wished to leave their
present service and join the American
Army. Seventy per cent of the Ameri
cans immediately said they would like
to go to the American Army and aid in
the formation of an experienced aerial
corps.
Almost all the remaining 30 per cent
replied that they would join the Amer
ican Army conditionally. One condition
often mentioned was the paragraph In
the United States Army regulations
forbidding American soldiers from
wearing foreign decorations. Many of
these aviators have won by deeds of
great courage some one or all of the
French military orders, the Legion of
Honor, the war cross -or the military
medal. Under the French service regu
lations these decorations or ribbons
representing them must be worn al
ways on the uniform. The Americans
are proud to have these distinctions
and consider it would be lacking- in re
spect for them to go into the American
uniform and discard the French deco
rations. It has been suggested that the Amer
ican regulations might be changed by
new legislation which might also in
clude a provision for the bestowal of
the American medal of honor upon for
eign officers and soldiers for conspicu
ous gallantry.

Godmothers' League to Supply
Soldiers With Comforts.
PERSONAL CARE SHOWN
Envelope Will Be Inclosed for Re
ply, and Other Presents Will Be
Sent Each Month to
Boys In Trenches.
NEW YORK, Aug. 27. Mrs. William
Leonard Davis has formed an Amer
ican Godmothers' League for American
soldiers on lines similar to those of
British and French organizations. This
organization will supply necessary
comforts to the soldiers fighting in
the trench, but unlike most other
American organizations working to
ward the same end there will be a per
sonal touch to the gifts from the Amer
ican godmothers. Each woman who
sends a parcel is asked to inclose a
self -addressed envelope with it so that
the soldier recipient can make a per
sonal reply. She is also urged to keep
up a regular correspondence with him
and send a regular monthly supply of
necessities through the Godmothers'
League.
Parcels intended for American sol
diers abroad should be addressed plain
ly and sent by parcel post to Amer
ican Godmothers' League, New York
County Chapter, Red Cross, No. 121
West Twentieth street. New York City.
In case of the death of the particular
soldier a parcel is intended for, the
league will pass it on to some other
soldier, who will send an - acknowl
edgement to the donor.
Volunteers have been asked to send
a first parcel as soon as possible and
another on the first of each month.
Among the articles that may be sent
are knitted sweaters, mufflers, hel
mets, socks, wristlets, flannel under
wear, flannel shirts (khaki colors),
braces, leather shoe laces, a box of
automatlo buttons, colored pocket
handkerchiefs, assorted safety pins,
wrist watch, writing pad and envel
opes and many more. Anyone wishing
more information can communicate
with Mrs. Davis at 570 Park avenue.
New York City. Mrs. Davis wishes
everyone writing to her to enclose a
stamped, self-addressed envelope, for
she is doing the clerical work herself
with the aid of volunteers, and does
not wish to burden the league with
office expenses.

PRESIDIO TRAINING CAMP. San
Francisco. Sept. 1. (Special.) Stu
dents from Oregon In the Reserve Of
ficers' Training Camp, which opened
here last week, gave a good account
of themselves in the opening assign
ments. Gordon Voorhies. of Portland,
ex-Captain in the regular Army, was
designated to act as First Lieutenant
of the Third Battery, and George Gore,
the Multnomah Club hockey star, was
assigned to the Second Lieutenant's
post.
Another Oregon man. F. L. Michel
book, of McMinnvllle, was assigned as
student Captain of the Ninth Company.
Mr. Michelbook was Captain of A Com
pany. Oregon National Guard, and saw
nearly a year's active service at the
Mexican border last year.
A large number of the 1500 student
officers here have had similar service,
either in some National Guard organ
ization or in the regular Army. Quite
a number of the candidates are ser
geants from the regulars.
For the man who came here without
any previous military service or with
only smattering recollections dating
back to the old "forsright" days, the
sledding is pretty bumpy and the com
petition keen.
Just as the organization of the stu
dents had been completed - Colonel
Frederick Sladen, a former ' Portland
man, received orders from the War De
partment to reorganize the men on a
permanent basis. Blanks, on which all
were permitted to express their indi
vidual preferences, were distributed.
Four branches of the service were
specified infantry, cavalry, coast and
field artillery. Due deliberation will
be given to each man's qualification
claims and, in time, some of the pref
erence requests may be granted. Just
now some men who came here with
notions about field artillery are in in
fantry companies, and vice versa.
Specialized training for each branch
will start immediately Instead of in
the second month of camp.
Company Eight is housing quite an
array of Oregon and Pacific North
western notables, among them Warren
Grimm, ex University of Washington
football star: Louis Seagraves, of Port
land, another ex-Washingtonian: Chet
Huggins, Oregon's great distance run
ner, and Dave Jordan, formerly foot
ball captain at the Multnomah Club.
Huggins has been teaching school at
Klamath Falls and weighs 185 pounds.
Roy Walker, brother of Dean Walker,
also is in this company.
Philip Patterson, well-known Mult
nomah clubman, is one of the U. S. R.
lieutenant instructors commanding
Company Eight. He makes & fine ap
pearance. Walter Gleason, of Portland, who
was recalled into active service upon
the opening of the second camp, is with

the other night and composed a poem.
Somebody says it read like this:

I think of many thngtt
Ye sods! we must so oft salute
They should mount us all on springs.
It has furnished some slight con
solation to the student officers to
know that there isn't a thing on the
schedule for them to do between the
hours of 9:30 P. M. and 6:15 A. M. ex
cept to sleep. During the rest of the
24 hours the men are on the "high"
practically all the time.
No students are allowed out of camp
except on Saturday afternoon, night
and Sunday until 10 P. M. This same
rule was in effect during the first
camp.

CAPT. SELLWOOD AT HEAD
Sergeant Meacli, Drllmaster, Busi
est Man In Camp Carrying Ont
Chiefs Orders Vntll 4 Lieu
tenants Are Assigned to Unit.
CAMP LKWIS, American Lake, Wash.,
Sept. l.--(Speclal.) The Portland Am
bulance Company, Captain Sellwood
commanding, arrived here at noon last
Monday and went Into camp directly
opposite the new base hospital across
the Pacific Highway. Although not
especially familiar wltn making camp,
tents were pitched on a temporary eite
and mess served by Sergeant Sanford
before 6 o'clock. Tuesday morning a
change was made to a permanent lo
cation near the original camp. The
company commander feels that a rec
ord was made in pitching the tents
and serving the first meal without any
outside assistance.
For the present the chief work of the
unit will be to guard the new base
hospital adjoining the camp, the field
hospital and the quarters of Major
General Greene, commander of the
American Lake cantonment, making a
total of 57 acres and requiring a de
tail of approximately 50 men daily. A
Sergeant of the regular Army visited
the camp and gave the men instruc
tions in this phase of their work.
Captain Sellwood announced that the
following men had been appointed non
commissioned officers:
first-class sergeants. Max P. Cush
ing, Clyde Meach; sergeants, Lee R. D.
Decker, Ralph E. Russell, H. E. San
ford, David M. Alrutz, Mark Heatrlck,
John O. Badgley, H. L. Mackenzie, C.
E. Butcher, Clyde Beals. C. A. Crowe,
Howard Hill: corporals. Sylvan O. West,
Karl B. Averill, Edwin N. Pa'.ton, Andy
N. Patton, Andy B. Jensen, Kenneth H.
Cliff. A. H. f pringston.
In the near future GO first-class pri
vates will be selected. The pay of a
first-class private is $3 more per month
and gives the men an incentive to do
their best.
Although Mess Sergeant Sanford and
Chief Cook Hansen have hardly had
time to get their organization working
smoothly, the general comment around
camp is to the effect that the food is
"great." Better things are promised,
however, in a few days.
Sergeant Meach, drlllmaster, is the
busiest man in camp. Until four Lieu
tenants are assigned to Captain Sell
wood, the work of carrying out his
orders falls on Sergeant Meach. Hav
ing had considerable experience, he is
equal to the occasion.
Quartermaster Sergeant Russell has
been on the Jump all week issuing sup
plies and clothing. All of the cloth
ing has not been obtained as yet, but
It will only be a matter of a short time
until every man will have a complete
outfit.
The general health conditions of the
men are good. A few men have been
ordered to report to the field hospital
every day for minor ailments.
