L RETUBNIh AVIATORS ARE ALL IN FAVOR OF IDEA Every former air service man, some of them America's best, who has been - interviewed on the organization of an Aero club has voiced his hearty ap- p1tal of the plan and is anxious to see It materialize. George S. Hodge, '19E, who served in the naval air service And is credited with sinking a U-boat, said, "I think it a mighty fine idea. Eastern schools ar starting such clubs and we mustt not let Michigan get behind."I George Ohrstrom, '19L, who saw oversees service in the army air serv- ice is "absolutely in favor of it" and believes it is something that should be pushed at Michigan. Charles Keller, '21E, of the marine air service said, "Great, I'll be at the meeting." C. 4. Smith of the army air service, better known to the campus for his football jbuity, offered, "I think it very fine; I will support it." Bruce Millar, city editor of the Daily, a former member of the army air service, is also enthusiastic and is anxious to see it made 4 succes. The meeting which is to be held at 7:30 o'clock tonight in the billard room of the Michigan Union will be the first chance that the former air fighters and aeronautical students of the University have had to get to- gether. NO NEED TO BOIL- CITY WATER NOW Dr. J. A. Wessinger, city health of- ficer, stated Wednesday that it was no longer necessary to boil the city water before using it for drinking. "An average rainfall will not con- taminate the water to such an extent that the chlorine process, to which it is subjected, cannot make it safe for drinking purposes," said Dr. Wessin- ger. "It is necessary to have an un- usual rainfall, such as there was about 10 days ago, then one and one-half inches of water fell, to contaminate the water to this extent. This only oc- curs about once or twice in the course of a year," he went on to say. It is expected that when the pump- ing station at the Steer firm, which is capable of delivering 4,000,000 gal- lons every 24 hours, comes into use that it will no longer be necessary to use the river water, as the daily con- sumption, under the meter system, would only be about 2,000,000. -Buy Victory Bonds -- us OF H.,AMBULANCE MEN LN NDDA11 1y IN N Vo TWENTY MEMBERS WEAR CROIX DE GUERRE; UNIT CITED TWICE Of the 14,000 cheering soldiers that arrived on the transports Easter Sun- day morning in New York, the most distinguished group was Ambulance unit 591, composed entirely of Uni- versity of Michigan men, who, having left Ann Arbor in May, 1917, spent 13 months under fire with the French army.

Twenty of the 45 members of the unit the Croix de Guerre. One ambulancier, Hugh W. McNair of Houghton, received both the French and the American war crosses.

All-Michigan Unit Ambulance unit 591 was the only All-Michigan unit in the field for any length of time. It was organized at the University in May, 1917, and sent to Allentown, Pa., with two other am- bulance units from Michigan. Unit 591, was, however, the only one of the three which reached France in time to see service. On Oct. 18, 1917, the section arrived at the front and served in the Ar- gonne sector between Hill 304 and Le Morte Homme (Dead Man's Hill), at1 the extreme left of the Verdun sector.- In February, 1918, the unit went "en repos" with the fourth Division of the second Army corps of the French army for three weeks and then moved up ahead of Verdun, where the divi- sion held the line around and includ-; ing Donamont and Vaux. Here the1 "unit served steadily until September,t 1918, and was under fire constantly.

General Diaz, commander-in-chief of the Italian army. will leave tonight, it is announced. (By Associated Press) Paris, April 23.-In a statement issued by President Wilson today explaining his position on the Adriatic questeion he declared that Fiume can- not become part of Italy. The president points out that every condition con- cerning the Adriatic settlement has been changed since Italy entered the war upon the promises of the Pact of London. He notes that since the dismemberment of the Austro-Hungarian empire, new states have been created for which Flume is the natural outlet to the sea. The President also contends that the strategic necessity pleaded in be- half of Italy's claim to the Dalmatian islands no longer prevails, as the Austrian naval menace has ceased to exist. Certain Definite Principles In issuing the statement, President Wilson let it be known that he called attention to the fact that there are certain definite principles which the peoples have accepted as a basis for a lasting peace. The United States delegation simply recalled this in order that there should be no deviation from these principles. Private Understanding "When Italy entered the war," the President said, "she did so upon the basis of a definite private understanding with Great Britain and France now known as the Pact of London. "Since that time the whole face of circumstances has been altered. Many other powers, great and small, have entered the struggle with no knowledge of that private understanding. "The Austro-Hungarian empire, then the enemy of Europe, and at whose expense the Pact of London was to be kept in the event of victory, has gone to pieces and no longer exists. Not only that, but the several parts of that empire, it is agreed now by Italy and all her associates, are to be erected into independent states and associated in a League of Nations, not with those who were recently our enemies, but with Italy herself and the powers that stood with Italy in the great war for liberty. To Establish Liberty "We are to establish their liberty as well as our own. They are to be among the smaller states whose interests are henceforth to be safeguard- ed as scrupuously as the interests of the most powerful states. "The war was ended, moreover, by proposing an armistice and peace which should be founded on certain clearly defined principles which set up .a new order of right and justice. Upon those principles the peace with Germany has been conceived and formulated. Upon those principles it will be executed. / One Basis of Peace "We cannot ask the great body of powers to propose and effect peace with Austria and establish a new basis of independence and right in the states which originally constituted the Austro-Hungarian enmpire and in the states of the Balkan group on principles of another kind. We must apply the same principles to the settlement of Europe in those quarters that we- have applied in the peace with Germany. It was upon the explicit avowal of these principles that the initiative for peace was taken, and upon them the whole structure of peace must rest. Flume Not For Italy "If those principles are to be adhered to, Fiume must serve as the out- let of the com crce, not of Italy, but of land to the north and northeast of that port: Hungary, Bohemia, Roumania, and the states of the new Jugo- Slav group. To assign Flume to Italy would be to create the feeling that we have deliberately put the port, upon which all those countries chiefly depend for their access to the Mediterranean, in the hands of the powers of which it did not form an integral part and whose sovereignity if set there must in- evitably seem foreign, not domestic or identified with the commercial and industrial life of the regions which the port should serve. It was for that reason, no doubt, the Fiume was not included in the Pact of London but definitely assigned to the Croatians." Wheat Premier Orlando received President Wilson's statement this aft- ernoon he immediately called a meeting of the Italian delegation. The meet- ing was to prepare a statement on the situation to be addressed to the Italian people. LATE WIRE BRIEFS (By Associated Press) Tokio, April 23. -The impression exists in well informed quarters here that Japan will Join the League of Nations even if the racial clause of the league convenant is finally reject- ed by the peace conference. This was brought out in answer to special news despatches from Paris asserting Japan had informed the other delegates to the conference that she would decline to enter the league if the racial clause was not adopted. Copenhagen, April 23.-A state of siege has been proclaimed in the im- portant German port of Hamburg and the suburbs of Alatona and Wands- beck, according to . advices received here from Hamburg. In consequence of the disorders the police have re- ceived orders to shoot persons carry- ing arms, and fighting against the na- tional police. - Buy Victory Bonds - NEW CHILDREN'S WARD FILLED TO CPAC!TY SOCIAL SERVICE IS UNDER WAY AT HOMOEOPATHIC HOSPITAL Immediate use has been put to the new children's ward of the Homoeop- athic hospital. Children ranging from infancy to the eighth grade of the public schools are sent here for all kinds of treat- ment, both medical and surgical. Every bed is now occupied and a waiting list has been formed pending the arrival of more beds. Dr. C. B. Stouffer of the University Health service is in di- rect charge of the new ward. Dean Hinsdale Favors Plan Welfare work, established through the efforts of the Homoeopathic guild, is being c rried on in connection with the work'of the hospital. The guild has the sympathy and hearty co-opera- tion of Dean Hinsdale of the Homoeop- atbic Medical school and is composed of many influential Ann Arbor women who are interested in the work being done. The welfare staff is not yet com- plete, but those already on it are: Mrs. H. S. Mallory, general welfare direc- tor; the hospital receiving officer, whose name is to be announced later; Miss Genevieve Reed, supervisor of nurses; Miss R. Dible, head nurse in the maternity ward; Mrs. C. V. Kent, representative of the guild; Mrs. John MacGregor, representative of the Bap- tist circle of Kings' Daughters; and Miss Ruble Mann, director of the ed- ucational work. Children Educated Education of the children while they are in the'hospital is one of the prin- cipal duties of the Welfare club. Les- sons are held during the day for chil- dren from the first through the sev- enth grade. Miss Mann is directing the work under the supervision of Prof. Allen S. Whitney of the University's educational department. Besides tu- toring pupils in the grade school so that they will not lose out while con- fined in the hospital, elementary work is taken up in a kindergarten and sub- kindergarten for very small children. Vocational Training Scientific recreation with a view to vocational training is also managed by the Welfare club. Both the boys and girls are interested in gardening, chicken-keeping and birdhouse build- ing, which is being taught them by stu- dents of the University who have vol- unteered to help the club in this man- ner. It has been found that children are much more contented and recover faster if some such form of amuse- ment is offered whichskeeps them busy and is educational as well.. The Baptist circle of Kings' Daugh- ters takes charge of the religious pro- gram on Sundays. Ite isalso carrying out a course of 10 lessons in bird study for the more advanced children. Works for Girls, Too Recreational and educational volun- teer work among the girls is being done by Miss Huldah Bancroft, secre- tary of the Y. W. C. A. Among the boys, the work is supervised by J.

Ef- finger gave the last lecture of the year before the Cercle in English. Dean Effinger said that "Nos In- times!" may really be divided into two parts. First the plot, which is a love story, and secondly the charact- ers which really make the play. "Nos Intimes !", with an exclamation point after the title has the intention of un- derlining the word "Intimes," is a story dealing with supposedly intimate friends who are struggling under the weight of gratitude. Sardou wrote the play in 1861 and it met with immediate success, in fact so great that Sardou. fainted after the initial performance. He also wrote plays which were spectacles more than any thing else, one of these being set in Petrograd and Paris, another in Italy, and still anotheV in Bizantium at the time of Justinian. These plays depend upon scenic effects and stage direction for their success, littletde- pending upon the words. This is not the case in "Nos Intimes!", in which the characters are the most important part. Sardou was 30 years old when he wrote the play. In 1887 he was admitted to the French academy. This was one case where a clever playwrite, not a man of letters, was admitted. CAPTAIN 1. A. WEST, '20K, RETURNS WITH D. S. C.
