LONDON STATIST SAYS UNITED
STATES IS GREAT NAVAL
POWER
"The condition of financial prepared-
ness in which the nation finds itself
gives confidence to the business
world," says the Bache Review. "This
is reflected in the calm records of the
stock exchange."
"In an article on America's war ef-
ficiency the London Statist reviews the
results which might ensue if the Un-
ited States entered war," continues the
Review. "After calling attention to the
fact that this country is the producer
of a vast amount of materials needed
in war, it rates this country as a great
naval power which has been adding
considerably to the number of her
ships and will be able to put a con-
siderable force to sea. If the Amer-
ican naval forces are added to those
of the Entente the consequences will
be very serious to the Central Pow-
ers."
Result of British War Loan
Out of $5,000,000,000 asked for in the
British war loan, only $110000,000
were classified under tax exemption.
This might be ascribed to patriotism.
At any rate, the new British war loan
with its stupendous totals to which
nearly one-fifth of all the individuals
in the entire nation contributed, marks
the determination of a great people
to win the war.
Debts of Warring Nations
The war debt of the Entente has
reached the enormous figure of $53,-
700,000,000, an increase of $36,300,000,-
000 since the month of August, 1914.
The debt of the Teutonic forces is
smaller, being $26,400,000,000, with an
increase of $17,800,000,000 since the
war started. Adding up the totals the
war debt of all the belligerents is
$80,100,000,000.
Dvidends for Much
Interest and dividend disbursements
for March this year are the largest
ever distributed at this period. They
total $182,000,000, compared with
$154,400,000 for a year ago. The ini-
crease in amounts paid out by indus-
trials is $20,000,000. Railroads have
increased their disbursements only
about $1,000,000. In addition, 24 com-
panies are paying larger or extra div-
idends this March as* compared with
last.
Market Situation
Nothwithstanding the grave interna-
tional situation, stocks are not for
sale. Owners have concluded that they,
are worth keeping at present prices.
Good securities are worth the prices
asked for them and war will not make
them worth less. War will create add-
ed demand and thus raise prices.
DARTMOUTH STUDENTS VOTE ON
NATIONAL CRISIS QUESTIONS
Consider Proper Stand in Present Sit-
uation of the United
States
Hanover, N. H., Mar. 7.-The stand of
the student body at Dartmouth in re-
gard to the attitude the United States
should take in the present crisis is
beingdetermined by a questionaire

iversity. The actual balloting took
place Tuesday, but the results have
not as yet been announced.
Several questions were presented to
those voting. Would the United States
be justified in declaring war, andI
shoulds itdeclaredevar, were the pri-
mary questions asked. Should the
question of war be first submitted to
the people by referendum before con-
gress declares war, except in case of
actual invasion, was another. Ques-
tions involving the attitude the in-
dividual voting would take if war were
declared and his stand on the prepar-
edness question were also submitted. I

PERFFCTION a r e
synonimous thoughts
in the minds of those
who plan to purchase
the foxiest in spring
clothes.
Monday, March 19, has been set as
the final date for those who wish to
be considered as applicants for the
fellowships offered by the National
City bank of New York, to hand in
their applications to Prof. George W.
Dowrie, who will be in room 209, econ-
omics building.
These applications must contain
both a detailed account of experience
in banking or business establishments
and a complete statement of all
courses pursued in this University or
elsewhere which have a bearing on
preparation for foreign banking. Tes-
timonials from the bankers or busi-
ness men by whom the applicant has
been employed must also be furnished.
All applicants will e judged on
three points, of which personality will
count for 50 per cent, university train-
ing for 35 per cent, and probable bank-
ing fitness for 15 per cent. A general
academic training and clear thinking
are some of the mental requirements,
while banking and general business
experience are the important factors
of the 15 pa ent demand.
Intercollegiate
Minnesota: A course for student
dietists, open only to normal or uni-
versity graduates from the domestic
science department, is being offered
by the university hospital. The time
devoted to the course is divided be-
tween work in the special diet kitchen
and planning diets for the various
patients.
Harvard: As a re ult of a decrease
in the resources of Harvard university,
a campaign has been started among
all Harvardites, past and present, to
raise the sum of $10,000,000 for the
unrestricted use of the university.
Minnesota: Football was the only
sport not showing a deficit last year,
according to the annual report of the
Athletic association of the university.
The gridiron sport showed a profit of
over $20,000, track lost $5,000, and
basketball lost $2,000.
Columbia: Columbia men have or-
ganized a Home Defense league to aid
in taking the place of the regular mun-
icipal force, which has been detailed
to guard the water supply system of
the city.
Indiana: Five hundred students of
the university vowed their loyality
to the nation in case of war in a mass
meeting held a few hours after the
news of the German plot became
known.
Indiana: Coach Stiehm is giving
his football squad work-outs on Jor-
don field every day this week that the
weather permits.
Indiana: Indiana's hope for a stu-
dent council will soon be realized if
the enthusiasm aroused by the last
open meeting of the Union is not per-
mitted to cool.
Iowa: Students who have defec-
tive voices and foreigners unfamiliar
with the English language may enroll
in a course in corrective work in pub-
lic speaking now offered by the oratory
department.s
Oklahoma: With a view to increas-
ing the efficiency of the Oklahoma .
Daily, a plan has been instituted this
semester whereby students in some
of the journalistic courses will assist1
the issue editor as a part of their1
required work.l
Illinois: A Venetian fete, similar
to those held in the Beaux Arts in
Paris, is being planned for March 10,
by the students in architecture, archi-
tectural engineering, and landscapet
architecture. Everyone attending5
must appear in some oriental costume,
without mask.l

the party for women of the university7
given last Saturday by the Women's

WISCONSIN JUNIOR PLAY HALTED
BY SCARLET FEVER EPIDEMIC
Madison, March 7.-A scarlet fever
epidemic at the University of Wiscon-
sin has caused unlooked for difficulty
in the productipn of the junior play,
"Green Stockings." The star of the
cast is quarantined at her home, due
to a case of the disease that has ap-
peared in the building.

made possible by the recent $30,000
campaign, was begun last night when
a pool committee was chosen by the
executive committe of the campaign.

Brooks, chairman; T. A. Lowry, H. J.
Abbbtt, E. A. Schaeberle, and William
Purfield.
FLOUR SURPASSES POTATOES
FOR NUTRITION AND ENERGY
Iowa City, March 7.-The substitu-
tion of flour for potatoes, as a means
of reducing the high cost of living, is
the plan suggested by Dr. E. W. Rock-
wood, head of the chemistry depart-
ment' at the University of Iowa. He
states that wheat surpasses potatoes
in nutrients and energy, in the ratio
of five to one, and that its adoption as
an article of food in place of potatoes
will materially lessen expenses.
Kansas: As the result of the in-
stallation of a free jitney service for
students by the University of Kansas
tardiness has decreased 50 per cent.
Oregon:. Faculty and student war
relief committees predict that $1,500
or $2,000 will be raised among Oregon
students for the relief of men held in
European war prison camps.;
Iowa: The war department has
granted Iowa on infantry unit of the
Reserve Officers Training corps. This
means that Iowa cadets il receive
free uniforms and equipment, which
will results in a saving of $16,000
annually.
GRADUATE GETS NEW RESULTS
IN BOTANICAL EXPERIMENTS
Clinton A. Ludwig, grad., is carry-
ing on experimental work in the bot-
anical department, in which he is try-
ing to determine the effects of illum-
mating gas on bacteria and fungi.
Some interesting results have been
obtained which are not altogether in
harmony with present accepted ideas.

bearing on laboratory practice.
