Editor of The Michigan Daily:
In the issue of November 17 of The
Michigan Daily, the reply to Prof.
hobbs' article on military training in
the university has called forth warm-
est admiration and endorsement from
irany patrons.
That the "hi'h ideals" of intellectual
ecucation should be subordinated to
military training, and students, whom
this university should aspire to send
out into the world as men of culture,
with mental and moral attainments
that should enrich the nation, should
be so influenced by military training
as to become ruthless destroyers of
human life, with only an "iron and
bicod" creed for theIr future, is un-
thinkably disappointing.
There is a nation, much before the
public gaze just now, which teaches
rilitarism from the cradle, has put it
in its school books and songs, with
iving examples always before the eyes
of the youth, to inspire a belief in the
doctrine that "might makes right."
Would our authorities be prcud t;
graduate competitors with the "sca:l
and superscription" of Michigan uai-
v ersity?
Ifit is still true that "the bravest
are the tenderest," no brightness of
brass buttons or number of $14 suits
can reflect glory upon our university
%hich has stcod for better things.
Many thanks to the graduate stu-
dent who has so ably expressed the
sentiments of many interested parents.

Princeton Student Freed by Britain
New York, Nov. 17.-Friends of
Wolfgang G. 'Priest, a New York con-
tractor, received word from London
today that Mr. Tricst's son, Kenneth
W. Triest, formerly a Princeton stu-
dont, will be released from the British
detention camp at Chatham Friday
and will start for America with his
father Saturday.
Young Triest ran away from Prince-
ton and enlisted in the British navy,

can state department that he was not
responsible for his actions. Mr. Triest
left New York 10 days ago to bring
his son home.

Mid Serbia Lost Says Russ Secretary
Saloniki, Nov. 14, via Paris, Nov.
17.-Old Serbia is lost and new Serbia
is in precarious condition, in the
opinion of M. Jacowscheff, secretary
of the Russian legation in Greece.
M. Jacowscheff arrived here today.
from Mitrovitza, western Serbia, hav-
ing come by way of Albania.
The secretary asserted the Serbians
at Babuna Pass could not hold out
much longer, and that the only hope
was that the Serbian force concen-
trated at Mitrovitza would prove to
be strong enough to take the offensive
and advance through Tetovo toward
Monastir. He said he feared the le-
gation staffs which were preparing to
leave Mitrovitza for Monastir some
time ago would find that the Bulgar-
ians had occupied Monastir.

IN LIVELY DEBATE:
(Continued from Page One)
needed to train an army of recruits
while our enemy would be able to take
America in two weeks. Those who ad-
vocate preparedness oppose war as
much as any one else, but they realize
the importance of the facts in the
case. The United States has had one
year of war for every three years of
peace. Yet people say that this coun-
try will probably never again go to
war. After the Napoleonic wars peo-
ple said there would be no more war.
But there has been.
"I have been disappointed in the
lack of sense of duty to the state
shown by some of the speakers this
evening. I am ashamed of American
spirit. Three hours a week and a lit-
tle added expense should not stand in
the way of the doing of a duty to the
nation. Other matters are subordinate
to the matter of responsibility to the
state."
Sofia Calls Kitchener Scapegoat
Berlin, Nov. 1 .---An announcement
Agency says: "Reports from Sofia
say that Earl Kitcioer's ri.ission has
made no impression, since it is im-
possible for the British to gain any
important advantages at the Darda-
nelles or in Macedonia. General opin-
ion is that Kitchener was sent to the
Orient as'a scapegoat on account of
the British failure."
