Washington, Oct. 17.-Pro-German
agents in the United States, accord-
ing to reports to the treasury depart-
ment, have directed their energies to-
ward defeating the Liberty loan. a
Their organized propaganda has
borne fruit from Minnesota to Texas,c
it is asserted, where feeble effortss
have been made not openly, but by
indirect methods to discourage sub-
scriptions.
The work of the pro-German agents,
officials assert, has been carried on
for more than two weeks. Some of
the workers have had the boldness,
reports to the treasury indicate, to
conduct their operations here in the
national capital.
Assembled from various sources, the
efforts of workers against the loan
,appear to have been directed along
four .main channels:
Attempts to discourage prospective
buyers of Liberty bonds.
Efforts to prevent certain banks
from handling the bonds. -
The publication in certain newspa-
pers and other mediums of publicity'
of editorials and articles which, while
not directly opposing loan subscrip-
tions, tend to discourage buyers, and
the prevention, so far as local and
sporadic efforts can prevent, of the
placing of Liberty loan# posters and
advertising literature where it will be
most beneficial.

Fresh Battalion
Helps in Battle
I,
MAKES DARING FLANK ATTACK
WHEN ENEMY COMES NEAR
GOAL LINE
Hail to the "frosh" who in triumph
advances! Hail, hail, hail to the ever-1
green "frosh!"
No, this is not a burlesque on the
war song from the "Lady of the Lake,"
but simply the thought suggested by
the attendance en masse of several
hundred freshmen at the Michigan-U.
of D. football game yesterday after-
noon.
When the body of yearlings, heads
uncovered, marched into the north
stand, those already occupying the
position of vantage wondered what
would be the nature of the attack.
Would the verdants go "over the top?"
Or waa this only a strategic move 4e-
signed to conceal an actual defensive?
The latter conception was the more
popular. Subsequent happenings justi-
fied the conclusion.
During the course of the gridiron
battle, numerous "poison gas" at-
tacks were launched at the enemy-
in this case the visiting Detroiters.
These "poison gas" attacks were in
the form of certain well known Mich-
igan yells.
Duringthe latter part of the game,
when the moleskin bullet came peri-
lously near the Wolverines' goal
trenches, the yearling regiment ex-
ecuted a daring flank attack. An im-.
portant position was captured by this
move, and the youthful football fans
were ableto observe the enemy at the
time of its most desperate offensive.
Other, minor gains of a few yards
were made on all fronts.
GERMANY TO MILITARIZE ALL
CANALS AND INLAND WATERS
Amsterdam, Oct. 17.-Measures are

This plan, it is stated, willremain
in force for the duration of the ex-
ceptional circumstances of war econ-
omy. During the transition ,period af-
ter the declaration of peace, the con-
trol will continue for the transport of
the returning troops and war material,
as well as the expected vast increase
of business traffic, will strain to the
utmost all means of transport.
Urgent request is made by the
Oratorical association for promptness
in the election of delegates to the as-
sociation from the classes of the En-
gineering and literary colleges and
from the Law school. Election of a
president and secretary was post-
poned until next Monday and the
meeting of the Oratorical association
last night was devoted mainly to dis-
cussion on the election of oratorical
delegates.
In compliance with a provision in
the constitution of the association,
each of the classes in the lit college
is instructed to select by majority vote
