stand which the United States will

The presence or the non-presenoe of
Americans on board the craft will
he the greatest .factor. The presence
of Americans would* be the one con
dition on which the United States
could base 'its protests in the event
of ngfttsek However, even the
presence off eftlsens of the United

LIFE AT CAMP GLENN
Camp Qlenn, Moreheacd
City, N. C.. Jul T 11. 191f.
Editor Daily News:
Being down here at Camp Qlenn,
Morehead City, where I have spent
several days, I thoought perhaps a
few lines in regard to the camp .life
here of the North Carolina treops
would possibly be of Interest to the
resders of your paper. Having seen
recently a few articles in different
state papers as to the fare and care
of the troops In camp, the Impression
might be created amonj^tthose who
are not familiar with the true facts
that the men are not faring well.
These articles, which are entirely
without any foundation whatever,
usually come from the pen of some
soldier who has been discharged
from the service for some cause or.
has become dissatisfied because he Is
not allowed every privilege that a
private cltlean has. And then there
are those citizens in private life who
have never had any military exper
ience, who have visited camp on Sun
days and not seeing chicken. Ice
cream and numerous other delica
cies on .the tables arrive at the won
elusion that the men are not receiv
ing the proper quantity or quality
of food. As X have stated these dis
gruntled people may have left the
wron? impression add such false
statements will have a tendency to
retard the reerulting of -men for the
regiments ^fhlch are now In samp.
For the-ssfte of those readers who
are unfamiliar with army life, and
every maff who has ever served with
the colort.wlll bear ms out la this.
I wish to staufthat the quality of
(sod furnished the troops. 1 f ef the
very best snd the quantity entirely
?efficient far the heartiest of esters.
In ss Interview With Oupt/F, L.
Block, quartermaster of the lad In

sldered one of the mast capable offi

(By United PreBs)
Petrograd. July 12. ? Chancellor
Kozatov, of the department of for
eign affairs, today told the United
Press that the new Kusslan-Japaneac/i
treaty will not affect China's open
door policy. Nor was the treaty made
because Japan fearn the United
States. Kozatov himself flrHt broach
ed the treaty when in Japan last
winter and Is therefore an authority
on the subject. He characterized
many of the reports that have boen
circulating with regard to the treaty
as "utterly absurd." He said fur
ther that America was not thought
of when the treaty was made. Be
fore the war. Germany was constant
ly talking China. She repeatedly
asked Russia to Join her against
Japan. Therefore the treaty was
made to prevent Germany from do
ing to China what she did to Tur
key.

London, July 12. ? The Germfcns
are fighting with the greatest brar^
cry Id the vicinity of the Somme
river and are stubbornly contesting
every Inch of ground.
Although they are unable to halt
the offensive of the allies, there Is
no Indication of their being down
hearted or willing to concede defeat.
For the last several day*, the
censor has been passing dispatches
of a most pessimiHtlc nature, Inti
mating that the army and the public
are discouraged. It Is believed here
that these were purposely passed to
mislead the allies.
The United Press Berlin dispatch
es report the German army and the
public In good spirits, which is cor
roborated by reliable private advic
es. Therefore the allies intend to
cotninue their offensive carefully
and methodically, in view of the
possibility of the Germans attempt
ing to conceal special preparations.
This same methodical advance con
tinues on the Russian front.
A party of Irish fusileers pene
trated the German trenches at a
strongly-held position near Loose.
They remained there for tweafty
minutes, killing many. They then
retired with only sight loBsdfc ^Wie
