Petrograd, Oct. 25.-Civilian evacua-
tion of Kronstadt, the main naval
fortress guarding Petrograd, was be-
gun today, according to official an-
nouncement. Removing of the civil
population is taken as a military
measure, preceeding the moving of the
Russian . capital from Petrograd to
Moscow.
Simultaneously with the announce-
ment of the evacuation of Kronstadt,
comes word from Berlin telling of the
withdrawal of the German army along
a wide front between the Bay of Riga
and the Dvina river.
Berlin fails to explain the extent
of the retreat on the Russian front.
London believes' that the troops
have been moved from the Riga Bay
region to the Italian front in order
to co-operate with the hard-pressed
Austrians. German official communi-
cations issued last night indicates that
the receding movement involves only
the far advanced protecting troops,
which it says have prevented the
Russians overlooking German forma-
tions since the beginning of Septem-
ber.

"We look for an avalanche among
the societies and other organizations
tomorrow," declared S. S. Atwood,
'18E. "Ann Arbor itself will be sur-
prised at the University spirit in the
city."
Some of the loan committee of the
University expect that a large over-
subscription will be reported Friday
night, from the various canvassers'
list totals. It is not certain what the
entire oversubscription will be.
At noon yesterday the Ann Arbor
committee announced that her quota
was slightly oversubscribed. Sub-
scriptions to the amount of $866,M0
were made, this including an individ-
ual subscription of $100,000 from the
Ann Arbor Savings bank. Washtenaw
county now lacks $700,000 to fill her
quota, a total of $1,773,350 having been
reached.
In the county Ypsilanti is second to
Ann Arbor in the amount raised, $312,-
000 and Chelsea is third with $177,000.

Washington, Oct. 25.--President
Wilson today gave full endorsement
to Woman Suffrage as an immediate.
issue in every state.
Addressing a delegation of 100
leaders of the New York State woman
suffrage party who called at the White
House to obtain an expression in sup-
port of the campaign in that state,
the President in emphatic terms de-
clared that woman suffrage is one of
the fundamental questions of democ-
racy, the proper settlement of which
is demanded by the issues of the war.
He praised the spirit, capacity and
vision of American women in the war.
"I believe," he said, "that just be-
cause we are quickened by the ques-
tions of the present crisis, we ought
to be quickened to give this question
of women suffrage our immediate
consideration."
Speaking as "one of the spokes-
man of a great party," the president
pledged his hearty support and added,
"I want to speak for myself and say
that it seems to me that this is the
time for the states of this Union to
take this action.
The suffrage delegation returned to
New York tonight confident that the
President's enthusiastic endorsement
would have its effect on the election
November 6th. Special significance
was placed by many of the New York
delegation on the fact that the Presi-
dent's advocacy of suffrage had not
affected by the tactics of militant suf-
fragists of the women's party. The re-
cent defeat of suffrage in Maine was
ascribed by some workers as due to
unfavorable impressions created' by
the so-called pickets.
MANY JOBS STILL OPEN AT
UNION EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
Numerous openings for specialty
men are reported by the Michigan
Union employment bureau. There is
a great demand for jewelry men, candy
makers, druggist's clerks, and student
canvassers. Quite a number of these
positions are still unfilled, and stu-
dents who can qualify and who want
such work are urged to report at the
desk of the bureau.
It is very difficult to describe without
mentioning places or dates, my trip
from "somewhere in France" to "some-
where in France," .but I will attempt
the task.
After a restless night, we arose ear-
ly expecting to make an early start,
but in this country the people do
not open their shops until after the
hour when an American would have
accomplished a half day's work, We
finally found ourselves leaving on the
main road in a caravan of Fords. The
roads are splendid all over France.
Many of them are stone, others asphalt,
with the result that we made excep-
tionally good time.
We went through one village after
another, saluting the inhabitants with
an occasional toot of the horn, without
accident. The fields are beautiful;
harvest is in full swing, fruit is ripe
and everything seems prosperous. I
stopped under a tree alongside the
road and plucked a number of delic-
ious apples.
Motor Gar Smashed
After leaving the city of we
had what might have been a very
serious accident. While coasting down
a hill at a terrific rate and attempting
a hair pin curve a peasant was en-
countered in the middle of the road
in a large two-wheeled wagon. In
order to avoid a collision and the death
of both the peasant and myself, I
attempted to- turn to the left. The
rear wheel skidded and struck rocks
alongside the road, the left rear wheel
gave way, every spoke splintered, the
tire and rim flew down a precipice and
my car came to a sudden standstill,
wedged between two large trees. The
front wheel was on the edge of a
very steep incline, which might be
termed a precipice.
My first thought was that I had
carelessly left my camera in the bot-
tom of my trunk and that this picture
might some day prove interesting to
a few in the United States. Upon ex-
ploring the precipice a number of
dugouts and trenches were observed.
One of the greatest battles in his-
tory had been fought on this very
ground.
Many Graves in This Section
Many graves can be seen over this
area of the country and the ground is
hallowed by every Frenchman. The
leading cars soon came back; the tele-
phone wires were tapped by a French
officer, the accident reported and the
wrecking car ordered out. The tele-
phone girl, however, did not deliver the
message and it was necessary for me
to walk nine kilometers in order to
attend to the details and get my car
back in the garage.
I then procured a new car from my
starting point and proceeded without
accident until I reached my destina-
tion, a distance of nearly kilo-
meters.
We are now busily engaged in a most
interesting and important piece of
medical work. It Is with considerable
regret that I am forced to omit the
information regarding this latter.
Description of French City
This beautiful little city of
inhabitants is situated on the side of
a hill. It is a typical quaint little
French village; the houses are all
attached one to another and the streets
are narrow and crooked. There is an
air of mystery about the place, due to
the doors being heavy, many of them
barred, and the windows being heavily
shuttered The people go to work late
in the morning, but notwithstanding
his, the place has a spirit of prosperity
and hospitality.
Many soldiers are on the streets
during the day and there are more
children than I have noticed elsewhere
in France. We expect to enjoy our-
selves very much. The food is good
and we are quite comfortable. As it
is late, will bid you au revoir.

EXPECT YALE LIBERTY LOAN TO
REACH $350,000 BY SATURDAY.
New Haven, Conn., Oct. 25.-Liber-
ty Loan subscxiptions at Yale will
probably total $350,000 before the end
of the week. The cause for this high
estimate was laid to the fact that Yale
increased her Liberty bond subscrip-
tion to $325,000 Liberty day. The
university raised $250,000 and $75,-
000 was subscribed by members of the
university community who are em-
ployed by the university.
Kazoo Scores on Camp Custer Team
Camp Custer, Oct. 24.-The officers
all-star football eleven here was scor-
ed on this afternoon fyr the first
time since their team was organized.
Kalamazoo college, coming here to
fill an engagement which Notre Dame
had cancelled, turned the trick, but
the officers came out on the long end,
of the score, winning 34 to 7. The vis-
itors score came in the final period
when they pressed and smashed
through the army line with a series
of rushes by Strome and Fautsch for
a touchdown. Strome kicked goal.
