LIBERAILITY SHOULD RULE~
STUDENTS OUGHT TO SACRIFICE
PERSONAL LUXURIES FOR NA-
TIONS ADVANCEMENT.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:,
It would seem to me that the Uni-
versity of Michigan will be eternally
shamed if 'our student body does not
rally loyally to the call of our coutntry
this week.
This war is a war between auto-
cracy and democracy. The boast of
the University of Michigan has been
that she stands as the very embodi-
ment of the spirit of democracy-that
she draws no distinction of wealth,
creed or nationality. The splendid ex-
ample that is set by such organiza-
tions as the Chinese club and some
of the fraternities and sororities ought
to arouse the enthusiasm and patriot-
ism of every American student. It
ought to cause everyone with a drop of
red blood to wake up and take a stand
as an American and as a citizen.
The fact that 1,200 or 1,500 Mich-
gan students and alumni are now act-
ually in service, that hundreds of them
soon will be at the battle front, that
many of them may give all that man
can give to his country, should create
a spirit of liberality and of sacrifice
in those of us who have not yet been
called to the service. I hope to see
every student a partner to the extent
of at least one bond. I hope to see all
expensive social functions abolished.
I hope to see our students voluntarily
bring their standard of living down to
the same fugal basis as that which
prevailed in the early years of the
Life has been very easy for many
of this generation of students. It is
hard for many, it is true, but those
who can least afford it are the most
ready to make a sacrifice. Let us en-
courage the spirit of sacrifice. The
Liberty bond is in no sense a gift.
It is an investment and a good invest-
ment. The buying of a bond should
maen the giving up of a personal lux
ury for a few months. That we should
be ready to do for the sake of those
who are giving up all luxury and who
are offering their lives.
PROF. H. E. RIGGS.
U.S. ROTARY CLUBS TO
RAISE WAR CAMP FUNDS.
Chicago, Oct. 23.-The hundreds of
Rotary clubs in the United states are
being urged to take active part in
raising the War Camp Recreation
Fund," which will be used by the
playground and recreation associa-
tion to assist soldiers to find whole-
some amusement when they visit
towns near the cantonments and
camps. Chesley R. Perry of Chicago,
secretary of the International Asso-
ciation of Rotary clubs, has sent a let-
ter to each of the 33,000 members of
the organization in this country, call-
ing their attention to the needs of this
work.
In telling of this activity, Mr. Perry
said:
"One of the very first, most essen-
tial, and, In some cases, most difficult
business is to create in communities
near the camps an attitude friendly
to the soldiers. The playground and
recreation association workers try to
make people realize that our soldiers
are just regular fellows like the aver-
age American youth, except that their
.having passed rigid physical tests im-
plies that a great number who have

led vicious lives have been excluded
on account of physical disabilities:
Which have come to them as a result
of such living, and that these fellows
whom we have in camp average clean-
er and better and more decent than
the ordinary run of young men of sim-
ilar age."
SIXTY LEAVE LITERARY COLLEGE
Lack of Finances, Draft, and Home.
Sickness Causes in Most Cases
About 60 students enrolled in the
literary college have withdrawn their
registration cards and left the Univer-
sity. This number is somewhat high-
er than the previous year, because of
the fact that a few men were called in
the second draft after they had enroll-
ed in the University.
Lack of finances is thought to be the
cause for the departure of most of the
students, although in some cases a
spell of homesickness was instrument-
al. A few students withdrew their reg-
istration from the literary college to
enroll in a different college or school,
but did not leave the University.

COST OF PRINT PAPER IN FRANCE
FIVE TIMES ORIGINAL PRICE
Increased Charge for News Service
Necessary to Curb Disastrous
Demand
(By Associated Press.)
Paris, Oct. 21. - Print paper costs
five times as much today in France as
it did before the war, and is hard
to get at any price. That is the ex-
planation the press gives the public
for the increase in price of one cent
papers to two cents a copy.
Paper pulp in the Scandinavian;
countries costs seven times more than;
In 1914, it costs 20 times as much to
bring it to France by sea, the insur-
ance is from 8 to 10 per cent, of the
the value of the cargo, the port dues
are from one to six per cent, labor
costs 60 per cent more and coal is
seven times as dear as before the war.
The government sees no other solu-
tion of the problem than a decrease in
the consumption of paper. That is
the reason why it obliged the publish-
ers to cease selling papers at a cent
unless they were willing to reduce the
size of their 'sheet to infinitesimal
proportions.
The result of the increase has been
almost a disaster to political organs
that are made up more of opinions
than news. When they sold for a
cent, readers would buy two or three,
or even more, of different political
complexion, sometimes out of curios-
ity and sometimes in order to keep
posted on the different sides of all
questions. Now they have reduced
their purchases of papers.
The circulation of the most import-
ant newspapers has been affected but
not seriously, as everyone wants at
least one paper in the morning for the
latest news.
