Among the measures discussed at the meeting was the plan of having a number of signs placed on the river bank, at boat houses, and at the power house, stating where ropes, life pre- servers and boats could be found in case of accident. Owing to the belief that many frat- ernity and sorority houses are inade- quately protected against fire, espe- cially in the matter of rope fire es- capes from the third floor, President T. P. Soddy, '16E, appointed a com- mittee to look carefully into the pre- vailing conditions with a view to ad, vising suitable reforms. In this work the Student Council solicits the co- operation of all. This committee is composed of W. M. Schafer, '16, chair- man, and Harold Henderson, '16M. The Council passed resolutions of sympathy addressed to the family of 1II. F. Korn, '17L, who recently met death in the Huron river R. S. Col- lins, '16, was appointed to write the resolutions with the aid of H. L.I Carroll, '17E. On Wednesday night the semi-an- nual election of officers for the Council will take place, This meeting, as are all others connected with that body, is open to the public. According to the constitution, officers must be elected twice each year, thus limit- ing a term to six months. The new officials will be installed immediately. President T. P. Soddy and R. S. Col- lins will retire from the Council at the end of this semester as their term of membership then expires. During the next week election of three new members will take place. The following classes are to be repre- sented by one person each: junior law, junior engineers and junior lits. Three members of the Council will be assigned to take charge of the elections and adequate notice will be given of the date for this event.

SWING SAYS ROUMANIA CAN DECIDE GRET A Berlin War Correspondent Talks To} Students About European I Conflict "When Roumania enters the war, the war's close is imminent," declared Raymond E. Swing, Berlin war cor- respondent of the Chicago Daily News, in a talk before students of journal- ism and others yesterday afternoon. He also called attention to the fact that Bucharest dispatches furnish a reliable barometer of the war, for al- though Roumania's army has many times been massed on the frontier, she will never enter the war until assured of the outcome. Germany's actions, he stated, are entirely to be explained in the ligh of the definition of the great von Clausewitz: "War, is a forceful continuation of policy." One of the most interesting facts brought out during the course of the talk was that Bulgaria, at the time she entered the war with the Central Powers, could, if she had entered on the side of the Allies, have taken Con- stantinople in a three-weeks' cam- of its recognition. While feeling in Congress over the latest Mexican outrages continued to- day to grow in intensity, the President still maintains his determination to deal with the situation through the Carranza government. At both the White House and the State Depart- ment it was apparent that everything possible was being done to stand off any acts which would force the gov- ernment into armed intervention. The fact was emphasized again today by the President as well as the state de- partment officials that the Am ricAns- who were murdered at Chihuahua had been warned not to enter Mexico. tion. Feeling is running high among Americans here. A meeting was held last night and plans set on. foot to; organize an American legion for the avowed purpose of going into Mexico in the case of intervention to avenge the death of other Americans by hunt- ing down bands of bandits. These Americans would squip themselves as cavalry and would make it their duty to scour the mountains for the bandits that have committed depreda- tions recently.

The staff wishes to an- nounce that with but few exceptions the fraternity and sorority houses have not yet sent in orders for their copies of the annual. Inasmuch as it takes nearly a hundred copies to supply this demand, it will be nec- essary for these oranizations to take immediate action in order to secure the boojs. For the benefit of senior medics, whose work keeps them at the uni- versity hospitals and who consequent- ly have not had an opportunity to place subscriptions, a man will be sta- tioned at the law building this after- noon at 5:00 o'clock, to whom the medics can hand subscriptions when they attend class there at'that hour. lBulmaiians Show Increasing Spirit to Oppose German Alliance Rome. Jan. 13.-According to news received through diplomatic circles from Bucharest, the Germans have assumed complete control in Bulgaria which has been deprived of economic and financial independence. German troops garrison the principal towns, including Sofia. The general staff cf the Bulgarian army and Bulgar- ian railways, police and censorship are controlled by Germans. A spe- cial commission of German officers is requisitioning food stuffs without limit, on the pretext of re-provision- ing the' army.- According to all information avail- able the officers are, sending supplies, especially wheat, to Germany. The provisions are paid for in German paper money at a compulsory ex- change rate of 27 per cent. The local currency has depreciated. Dis- content is widespread and anti-German feeling is growing. The Bulgarians openly express regret at the alliance with the Germans. Czar Ferdinand is indignant but powerless. He does not dare to oppose the Germans and he fears the loss of °his throne. Austrians Control Montenegro London, Jan. 13.-Another decisive stage in the Balkan situation has been reached with Montenegro now following Serbia in being virtually absorbed by the invading forces. It was learned tonight that Austria and Montenegro had come to an armistice, this being construed as the last act of the little country after having its capital, Cettinje, dominated after the Austrian capture of Mount Loveen. That King Nicholas will continue the unequal struggle. is considered doubt- ful here by the accepted few among the best posted men in London. That Montenegro has virtually passed un- der Austrian control is admitted. The chief significance of this does not lie in the small territorial acquisition which is less than Serbia, but in Monl- tenegro's Adiatic front lying along the Austrian offensive naval base of Cat- taro, where today's dispatches an- nounce the entire Austrian fleet, in- cluding three dreadnoughts as as- sembling, and from which the recent naval raid against Italian troops to the relief of Serbia was conducted.

Up to a late hour tonight neither the state department nor the Mexican embassy had received confirmation of the massacre of 16 other Americans at Madera, Chihua- hua. El Paso, Tex., Jan. 13.-Official an- nouncement was made tonight that General Elias Calles, Carranza com- mander in Sonora, was preparing to send 5,000 men from Sonora into Chi- huahua to help exterminate General Villa and other bandits now operating there. In official quarters here it is report- being supplied with arms and ammu- nition from Chihuahua, Torreon, Du- rango, and the surrounding territory. Word comes that Americans who have gone into the country, because of assurances of safety and a respon- sible government, are now in great peril. There is indignation over the murder of the sixteen unarmed Amer- icans, which is feared to the only the first of similar acts.y U-NOTICE Girls' Glee Club meets at Rent- schler's Studio, 9:00 o'clock tomorrow morning, for Michiganensian picture..
