London, Nov. 30.-The seat of the Roumanian government has been moved from Bucharest to Jassy, according to a Reuter's dispatch received here. Berlin, Nov. 30.-Campulung, Rou- mania, has been captured by German forces, the official statement declared today. The statement pointed out that, by capture of this Roumanian city, the road across the important Toersburg pass was now opened for the Teuton forces. Seventeen officers and 1,200 men were captured by the Bavarian troops, and seven canon and much baggage was taken. "In Wallachia our advance con- tinues," the Bulgarian official state- ment said today. "Near Giurgin two officers and 200 men were made pris- oners. A hostile attack against heights near Monastir on the Macedonian front was repulsed by our fire. Relative calm is reported in the Cerna dis- trict, "Hostile advances failed," said to- 4lay's official statement detailing ac- dvity on the Macedonian front. From the west slope of the Roin mountains near Bruiste, where the summit has been repeatedly and vdlnly attacked by the enemy, the Serbians were driven off again. Petrograd, Nov. 30. - Julga fan troops fIghting from the Danube to- ward Bucharest attacked Roumanian forces near Gurgauzi, the official war office statement announced today. The statement claimed the capture by the Russians of Rukada heights in the southern Carpathians. Bucharest, Nov. 00.-Violent fight- ing on the northern and northwestern fronts from the Buzu to the Praciova river valleys was reported in the Rou- manian official statement today. The situation along the southern front was reported unchanged. Treasures of All Lands in America The Rev. John Mason Wells, pastor of the Baptist church, was the speaker at the union service held yesterday in the English Lutheran church. Mr. Wells' subject was "America, God's Chosen Country." Mr. Wells pointed out how America had received the treasures of art from Greece, the government of Rome, and the religion of Israel. She is popu- lated by a people coming from all countries of the world. This gives her a cosmopolitan spirit that is unknown anywhere else on the face of the globe. Because of this fact America is in a position to understand the struggle that is occurring in Europe now from every angle. In showing how America may lead the world to the altar of peace, Mr. Wells said, "There is a spirit of war in Europe that is caused by the edu- cation of the children in warlike ways. The children can be educated to walk in the path of peace." He referred to the book by G. W. Criel, "A Mechanical View of War and Peace." This showed how the education of the European nations ncw engaged in conflict pointed toward war. In closing Mr. Wells showed how the "octopus" of war had everything vile in its make- up and none of the Christian ideals. The sermon was attended by a large congregation and the collection taken will be devoted to the work of the Associated Charities in Ann Arbor. ShIpbuilders Get 10 Percent Raise Quincy, Mass., Nov. 30.-Employes of the Fore River Shipbuilding cor- noration will receive a 10 percent in- Student Council. *1 * * * * * * * * * * TECHNIC TAKES STAND FOR ALUMNI RESEARCH Backs Plan to Throw Engineering College Laboratories Open to Outsiders The Technic has undertaken an educational and editorial campaign for the furtherance of industrial research work in the laboratories of the engi- neering llege. For this purpose 2,000 reprints of the article in the Decem- ber Issue of the Technic which dealt with this subject, have been ordered, and as soon as the order has been ful- filled the reprints will be distributed among the alumni of the engineering college and others interested in this matter. A movement to open the University's laboratories to engineers and scient- ists not connected with the University but who are engaged in research work, has been initiated by the Chicago alumni of the engineering college. and it is in support of this movement that the Technic has adopted its editorial policy for this year. The Chicago alumni on their part have presented to the regents a me- morial in which they ask that a system be created whereby the above reform can be carried out efficiently. At present any engineer or engi- neering firm wishing to conduct ex- tensive tests or experiments has to do so in the laboratories of the consult- ing engineers. In this way the re- suIlts of experiments which in many cases would be of great importance to the scientific world, are kept secret or unpublished. This would not be the case if the laboratories of the Uni- versity had been used. Furthermore engineers of insufficient means with which to conduct research work in private testing stations would be en- couraged to experiment at a univer- sity. To make a system of "industrial" laboratories of real value to the en- gineering world a printing bureau for the purpose of publishing research bulletins would have to be established. At presentmost of the research work of engineers is published in the trans- actions of the various engineering so- cieties. An example of the increased prestige the University could gain by this means is shown by the importance attached to the reports of experimental work performed in the naval tank, which reports are generally published in the transactions of the Society of Naval Architects of New York. The results of these experiments are often so important that they are quoted in technical papers all over the world. At present there are six research fellowships esteblished in the Univer- sity by private firms, and the results of this system of industrial research have been so satisfactory that an agi- tation is being carried on for their ex- tension, as well as for a liberal policy in the utilization of laboratory facil- ities by outsiders. Kiss Sets Xenophon Back $1,000 White Plains, N. Y., Nov. 30.-A kiss from a bride of two weeks- and stolen at that-is worth just $1,000. That is the price set on it by a jury here: Xenophon Kuzmier, whose first name is Greek whose last is German, and who himself is a French chef, was the miscreant. Mrs. Julia Nish said Kuzmier, who was her landlord, forcibly stole one of her kisses after she had been married just two weeks, She sued. C. W. Whitehair, general secretary of the Cornell University Y. M. C. A., will be one of the speakers at the mass meeting for interesting students in prison camps. M. W. Welch, '17, chairman of the committee received a telegram from Mr. Whitehair yester- day stating that he would be pleased to come and speak to the students. Mr. Whitehair has spoken to univer- sity students all over the country and is especially interested in "Y" prison camp work. During the past two summers, Mr. Whitehair has spent his time abroad working in the trenches with the sold- i' rs and visiting prison camps. It is said of him that he has a wonderful knowledge of the British arms in re- gard to its general conditions of life and habits. He has spent much time with the British troops in Egypt, India, and Mesopotamia. Ile knows their movements intimately and also is in close touch with their needs in their life among the closed confines of the prison camps. Five Million Men in Camps There are now over five million men and boys, among them hundreds of students and professors, in the prison camps in Siberia, Germany, Russia, Austria, England, France, and Italy. They receive for food, shelter, cloth- ing and other needs only what can be spared by the fighting nations after soldiers and civilians have bcn taken care of. Early in the struggle the warring powers gave the international com- mittee of the Y. M. C. A. full per- mission to do all in its power to make life a little more bearable for these prisoners. For more than two years this organization has carried on a comprehensive program with funds secured by private appeals, but the coming of the third winter has so in-- creased the size and the urgency of the task that the project can no long- er be financed in that way. The first public appeals are now being made, and university commun- ities are being asked to lead the way. All over the country, the colleges and universities are raising funds for this purpose.. John R. Mott, on his return from prison camps In Europe, stated, "My solicitude is not primarity for the bel- ligerent countries, but for the United States of America, lest, in this moment of the world's greatest need, we en- ter not sufficiently into fellowship with the suffering and sorrows of the European peoples." Dean A. H. Lloyd Gives Interview. Dean Alfred H. Lloyd, of the gradu- ate school, in an interview on the sub- ject of raising money for work in the prison camps of Europe, said: "Asked if I think any appeal should be made to the University of Michigan for money to aid the International Christian association in its work of relief among the prisoners of the war- ring nations of Europe, I certainly can not say no. The University ought to take some real part in the war. So far it has done very little. Often, ex- cept for the interest of a few individ- uals, it seemed even indifferent as well as inactive. In this work of relief, however, which is nothing less than a great work of-humanity, the University has the opportunity to participate in the war and its issues in a large way. The work is of course bigger than any organization, but we should be glad that an organization exists fitted for the task of relief and already granted entrance and privelege in the different countries concerned. The need is undoubted and is very great. The response, then, ought to be very generous, gifts being made on the principle that there can be no. real generosity without real sacrifice. Upon readiness to sacrifice something must depend the success of the pres- ent appeal. The giving, moreover should be more than just that of in- dividuals. It should be a University's giving, affected with the University spirit, the spirit of a great body of in- dividuals loyal to a single purpose and that purpose a high purpose." istic of Michigan than any previous year book of the University. Although the 1916 Michiganensian ranked among the best books of its kind in American colleges, the editors of the 1917 book will strive to set a new mark in this year's production. In the past, although the year book has possessed many commendable characteristics, it has lacked in many places true expression of student life. Many pages of class records have pre- sented a rather staid appearance while the cuts of campus celebreties have been made too formal. In their search for material for the class records this year, the staff of the Michiganensian has raided scrap books and uncov- ered all sorts of hidden information to liven the pages of records. Further than this an absolute ban has been placed on "posing" for snap shots. Another feature to this ye.r's book will be the printing of pictures taken on various trips made by students and the Michigan teams during the year. Prominent among these will be a number of snap shots taken on the Cornell trip. New arrangements have been made for the class photos so that the class officers instead of hav- ing group pictures taken, will have their individual pictures on the class page., Art work selected so far for the year book has been of a very high standard. The John and Ollier En- graving company of Chicago has charge of all of the art work on the page borders and the senior page de- sign, while the remainder of the page decorations arerbeingdcontributed by students under the leadership of Rob- ert Frantz, '17A. Owing to an early start in the edi- torial work, the production of the 1917 year book will come in advance of the productions of former years. While no definite time can be set, the present schedule calls for delivery in the first week of May. Already the work on the book is several weeks in advance of that of the same time last year. SANTA CLAUS NUMBER OF THE GARGOYLE HAS MANY DRAWINGS Hurricanes of laughter are prom- ised by the Gargoyle staff to all those who secure copies of the "Santa Claus" number which is scheduled to appear on Dec. 15, just in time to per- mit students to take copies back to the "home folks." All the holiday humor that the cam- pus wits and artists have been able to gather together is to be displayed to advantage in this issue of Michi- gan's funny book, and the indications are that it will be one of the snap- piest yet produced. Among the many features which will distinguish it from its many pre- decessors are ten minimum size sketches, double page zinc etchings, full page half tones and pages of ar- tistic advertising that will attract the most listless reader. Lawyer Leaves $10,000 for Aeroplanes New York, Nov. 30.-A bequest of $10,000 to the Aero Club of America to encourage aviation with machines using power other than gas is pro- vided in the will of Samuel H. Valen- tine, a lawyer. Mr. Valentine was a member of the board of governors of the club. Victim of Bullet in Brain Contented San Antonio, Nov. 30.-With a pistol bullet imbedded in his brain, T. W. Hopper, 37 years old, retained con- sciousness and told surgeons he felt no pain. He was taken to a hospital following an unexplained shooting Tuesday night. He was shot squarely in the back of the skull. Berman Sub Sinks Fishing Trawlers London, Nov. 30.-Without warning a large German submarine Tuesday afternoon attacked the Brixham fish- tng fleet, sinking three trawlers, a Lloyd's dispatch today asserts. After the trawlers were sunk, the enemy !indersea boat shelled the remaining' vessels. All ,the crews of the fishing fleet were safely landed. * :* *: *: Penmsylvania 23, Cornell 3.

Deplorable conditions in the repub- lic necessitate this action, the secre- tary said. He does not plan, how- ever, to send more marines there and Captain Knapp will not take the title of military governor even though hel assumes the powers of such an office. Under the American - Dominican treaty, the United States is responsi- ble for payment of the interest onI Sauto Domingo's foreign debt. Be- cause of the disturbed conditions the United States has been unable to meet. this obligation. The present action,' however, Daniels said he believed,' would clear the situation and Captaint Knapp will supervise a regular pay- ment of interest. Thanksgiving Day Quiet for Wilson1 President Carves Giant Turkey and Enjoys Old Fashioned Din- f ner at home Washington, Nov. 30.-President and Mrs. Wilson spent a quiet Thanks- giving with their immediate family today. They attended services at the Central Presbyterian church this fore- noon and later took a long automobile ride. This evening the president carved a, giant turkey when the family sat down: to a good old fashioned Thanksgiving1 repast in the White House. There were present Miss Margaret1 Wilson, Mrs. Helen Woodrow Bones, Mrs. W. H. Bolling, mother of Mrs. Wilson, and other relatives. Today Mrs. Wilson sent flowers to friends? who through illness were unable to enjoy the holiday. Tonight the pres- ident and Mrs. Wilson attended the] navy rgl ;igall. FRENCH GOVERNMENT DECIDES TO RECRUIT 150,000 GREEKS Berlin, Nov. 30.-German newspa-] pers today stated that information re- ceived from reliable sources indicated that the French government contem- plates "further coercive measures against Greece." The newspapers make the charge that in order to fill gaps in the French army; France will re- cruit 150,000 Greeks. In order to at- tain this objective it is stated the French government will suppress all papers which are antagonistic to the Venizelos provisional government. Director of Mint Urges 21-2 Cent Piece Washington, Nov. 30.-A two and one-half cent piece is demanded by the country, according to the director of the mint, whose annual report rec- ommends passage of a law authorizing coins of that denomination from cop- per and nickel. So declared .the imperial chancellor, van Bethmann-Hollweg, in the reichs- tag today while introducing a new Rill for a national auxiliary service- "the mobilization of civilians." "The war continues with its de- structive forces," the chancellor de- clared. "Thus our enemies desire it. They are celebrating the past sum- mer as a period of victory. But did they obtain what they wanted? Our lines are unbroken, and Roumania, in which a great change of events is ex- pected, now atones for what it did. The almost superhuman heroism of our troops, and .the clear conscience that we have as the first and only ones who are ready to end the war by a peace guaranteeing our existence and our future, gives us a moral right to such confidence. "But gentlemen, this right ought not to make us forget our duty. They have superior numbers at their com- mand and almost the whole world de- livers them war materials." The chan- cellor argued that ithwasnecessary for Germans to do everything in teir power to increase the manufacture of war materials. "Hands that are idle assist the enemy," he said. He explained that the bill which he introduced had been discussed with the interested trades and in the reichs- tag's main committee. "On behalf of the confederated governments," he de- clareds, "I ask you to assist in this work which will bring us new strength and which will guide us to victory and peace." Berlin, Nov. 30.-"Not to be heirs of England, the mistress of the seas, but to maintain a position of equal rights in the world," was Grand Admiral von Tirpitz's aim in using German naval forces, he declared in a telegram of thanks announlcing his nomination as an honorary member of the German navy forces. "For more than 20 years I have felt certain that German life could not con- tinue without holding its own in the 'world and at sea and as a conse- quence of this could not make its way without a strong navy. As far as time and general conditions and the means at my disposal permitted, I used my best forces for the same. Not to be the heirs of England but to make a position of equal rights in the world was this aim. "If this object Is made impossible through the damages we have suf- fered, then German life will be dwarfed and will perish." POSTAL OFFICIALS PLEAD FOR EARLY MAILING OF PACKAGES Washington, Nov. 30.-"Do your Christmas mailing early and that means-do it now." Fearful of a rush of business in the several clays before Christmas which will jam the postal system so that some mail will necessarily be delayed, officials today made the above warn- ing. "It is absolutely urgent," said one, "that mail going to foreign countries get away at once if Christmas deliv- eries are hoped for. The censorship of the belligerent countries spells de- lay and even countries not at war are having trouble with their mail." Postal employees are looking for- ward with dread to the Christmas parcel post load. If those who usual- ly wait until the last minute will only hurry up, mark the package, "Not to be opened until Christmas," they will confer a series of joys, one to the recipient and one each to every postal employee who has to handle thepack- age.
