NOT YET areful perusal of the peace speech Prince Maximilian, German chan- or, and of the proclamation of the ler to his army and navy, fails to lose the one phrase that might ,n peace. That phrase is: We surrender unconditionally." aximilan's speech is really a mas- lece of indirection. An optimist Id read anything into it that he ied to find there. The chancellor pts the principles of peace as set I by President Wdison in his ch of Sept. 27, with which the rth Liberty Loan campaign was ned. President Wilson stated in speech that Germany cannot be ted and must give guarantees of I conduct. This followed closely the Allied terms offered to Bul- a, in which guarantees were in- led, and those guarantees includ- demobilization of the Bulgarian y, the retirement of the Bulgarian er within its pre-war borders and surrender to Allied garrisons of garian strategic points, including ng fortified positions. If Max- ian really accepts President Wil- s recently expressed ideas, he must pr'epared to let the Belgians, the ach, the English and Americans Bison Coblenz, Metz, Frankfort and an or their military equivalents. optimist might believe that Max- ian is ready to agree to these is, but all Maximilian asks is an istice, the opening of negotiations, ays nothing of unconditional sur- Ler. aximilian refers to the indemifica- of Belgium in such ambiguous is that he might later construe his ds to mean that Belgium should mify Germany. This sounds pre- erous, but it is no more preposter- than the "no indemnities, no an- tilns," Brest-Litovsk treaty. Max- Ian does not refer to the great g of Alsace-Lorraine. He says previous treaties should not be wed to stand in the way of peace. optimist might think he meant the Brest-Litovsk and Rumanian tes could be rectified under that seology, but if Germany gains suf- ct time by peace negotiations to ganize her forces, Maximilian and masters might say he referred to e entirely extraneous treaty which ot at issue at all. e chancellor says that because. views are those of all party lead- [n Germany that Germany is now- vernment by the people. He calm- nores the fact that German part- are largely controlled by funds he imperial government and that chancellor is still, under the basic law of Germany, a creature of the kaiser. Maximilian should tell it to the marines. They know how to answer that kind of stuff. On the day when the whole nation was talking excitedly about Germany's latest bid for clemency, Secretary Mc- Adoo was selling bonds in the rain. Have you bought yours? Our soldiers make the same an- swer to a peace offensive as to any other kind; so should we. Let's do our share toward making that answer effective by buying bonds. If the price of haircuts goes up, we will be seeing window displays of "latest styles in hair ribbons for men." Football is a rough game for the Case lads. So they "hike" instead. CAPTAIN COMENTS ON EFFICIENCY OF SYSTEM OFFICIAS TEACH MEN ARMY ADMINISTRATION WASHINGTON- SHOWS SPECIAL INTEREST IN MICHIGAN S. A. T. C. Michigan may pride herself on her work done in connection with the S. A. T. C., according to military advices. Through the perseverance of men connected with the mechanics' detach- ment stationed here this spring, a plan for handling the work of enrolling the students in the S. A. T. C. was worked out. A class of approximately 125 men under Sergeant-Major Fischer was given intensive training in army administration. The course consisted of a series of lectures and quizzes to fit them for the work this fall. As a result, everything connected with the S. A. T. C. was handled 'in a sys- t'ematic and orderly manner. There has been no confusion. . Officials at Washington have shown special interest in the way the work was carried out here. A call was is- sued from Washington a few days ago for some of the men who helped per- form the work so successfully at Mich- igan to report at various other col- leges to assist in the work there. ~omen Girls interested in tennis should sign up at once for the tournaments. Tennis courts are ready on Palm- er field and at Newberry residence. An appeal is made to all Univer- sity women to assist in making hospit- al bags and doing war relief work. Information may be had from Flor ence Field, '20, at 251. Owing to the accident in Waterman gymnasium and the influenza scare, the junior advisor supper, freshman party, and Women's league mass meet- ing have been postponed. Dean Myra B. Jordan will be at home to University girls on Tuesdays from October to December inclusive, at 1215 Hill street. Westminister house has reported 100 per cent Women's league cards. All sorority and league houses hav- ing 100 per cent league cards are ask- ed to report to Elsie Erley, '20, at Martha Cook building.

Ralph H. Durkee, commandant of the students' army training corps, at a meeting of the non-commissioned ofli- cers held recently in University Hall. Captain Durkee called his- non-com- missioned officers together to give, them the outline of their duties, re- sponsibilities, and opportun ties. Assigned to Barracks In Two Hours "Who of you would have thought one year ago today that you would be in the army?" asked Captain Durkee in the course of this talk. "Already you have been impressed with the ef- ficiency with which the army is being run. You reported for induction at 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon and in less than two hours you were all in barracks, assigned to companies and ready to begin training. That was not to the credit of any one particular person here. It was Just the working of the entire military system, Every- thing is done that way. The sooner you fit yourselves into that machine, the sooner the war will be won." Captain Durkee went on to tell of the calls made on this unit of high- class men, far more than can be met. He denoug ed in the same connection the type of'"super-soldier." German Superman Turned Brute "Germany -developed a superman," he said, "but he turned out to be a brute. America has no use for that type,, Captain Durkee inspired a cheer which could be heard all over the campus when he said, "One reason we are all here is to make us more effi- cient so we can kill more Germans. We're out after them." The qualities required of an of- ficer and the way in which the candi- date is rated were spoken of, and Cap- tain Durkee assured the men that they would be given every opportunity for advancement. He also spoke of the value of optimism and the moral ef- fect on a unit of having good, cheer- ful, and efficient non-commissioned of- cers. University Lacks Men for Odd Jobs One of the immediate effects of most of the men of the university being in' the S. A. T. C. is the lack of men on the campus to do odd Jobs. People who have heretofore depended on the college men for raking their leaves, .caring for furnaces and the like, must do this work themselves or let it go undone, as the University Y. M. C. A. which has been acting as job-broker, states that no men are available for these duties. filitary News All theaters will remain closed night. to- Owing to the danger from Spanish influenza, the nurses of the University hospital are being required to wear several thicknesses of gauze over the lower part of the face while attend- ing patients. The gauze, which is worn somewhat like a gas mask, pre- vents the inhalation of germs through the nose and mouth, but admits enough air for breathing purposes. Doctors and fatients, also, are wear- ing the masks. Women's League Meeting Postponed The big mass meeting of the Wom- en's league, which was scheduled for tonight as the climatic event in the' organization's 100 per cent member- ship campaign, has been postponed in- definitely on account of the epidemic of grippe. Doris McDonald, president of the league, says that all plans for the gathering have been perfected. NOW OPEN 118 East Washington Second Floor D I 11 LYNDON 719 N. University All men, including late-comers, were assigned to definite barracks today. Each battalion was assigned its! drilling ground on Ferry field this morning. Bed-sacks have been loaned to the members of the S. A. T. C. at the Yp'si- lanti normal school. Classes will start at 9 o'clock this morning, instead of 7:30 o'clock as formerly. The men are to receive another antiseptic nose wash. A supply of 9,000 blankets has been received for members of the S. A. T. C. This assures an adequate supply for all. Approximately 12 pounds of blankets are allotted to each man. This usually amounts to three blank- ets. Members of the S. A. T. C. will pre- sent absence excuses to their officers instead of to the attendance committee this year, according to a statement made yesterday. As heretofore, the students will be required to do all of the course in .order to secure a satis- factory grade, and all absences will be reported to military commanders. JUNIOR ADVISORS' SUPPER POSTPONED INDEFINITELY The junior advisor's supper and Dean Myra B. Jordan's tea, which were to have been given yesterday afternoon and evening in Barbour. gymnasium, have been indefinitely postponed at the request of President Hutchins. The accident in Waterman gymnasium, and the desire of Uni- versity authorities to prevent an in- fluenza epidemic by cancelling stu- dent gatherings were given as the cause for the decision. These two annual events which have become traditional among the wom- en of the University, will not be given up entirely, according to Dean Jordan. Their date has simply been set indefi- nitely ahead, pending the development of a more favorable situation. The question of disposing of the large amount of food which had been prepared to serve 400 people was solved by the dietitian of Martha Cook building, who purchased it for use there.
