President Assails Hughes for
Time in Indianapolis
Address.

First

(By Robert J. Bender, United Press
Staff Corespondent.)
Indianapolis, Oct. 12. -Assailing
Charles E. Hughes personally for the
first time in the campaign, President
Wilson today said, "any man who re-
vives sectionalism in this country is
unworthy of thetconfidence of the na-
tion." The great crowd cheered loud
for several minutes.
"I didn't come here to talk politics,
as you well know," the president said
during a plea for good roads, "but I
must say this," and he spoke of the
sectionalism issue raised by his po-
litical opponent. "The man who raises
this cry of sectionalism," he said,
"supports his own provincialism, his
own ignorance. It is the depth of anti-
patriotic feeling." The president said
that co-operation is absolutely neces-
sary for the new nationalism of Amer-
ica:
"With one body pulling one way and
another pulling another, we cannot do
anything for the world. The United
States must be ready with a united
force. We can no longer play with
the elements of our force. We have
got to combine the efforts of our in-
dustry under expert leadership, along
the new lines of a new age. I want
to see universal co-operation."
Again, however, the president
launched into politics, saying, "politics
as a means of running for office is
comtemptible. A man once told me
that most politicians talk through their
hats. Talking through hats should be
a dead issue. Politics should be fea-
tured by this slogan, 'put up or shut
up'." The crowd rose to its feet and
cheered for four minutes.,
At a luncheon given in his honor by
Governor and Mrs. Ralston, the non-
partisian atmosphere which the presi-
dent has tried to throw about all his
recent trips was strongly apparent.

New York, Oct. 12.-Eight hundred;

former U. S. Boy Scouts living on

an organization called the Junior Ma-
rine Scouts, for training in the duties

University Band to Furnish Music As-
sisted by Billy's Picked
Choir.
2,000 SEATS WILL BE RESERVED
Billy Sunday's meeting in Ann Ar-
bor, Mcnday, October 23, will, accord-
ing to plans, be in the form of a stu-
dent mass meeting. Not unmindful of
the cordial invitation tendered him
by representatives of the student body
sometime ago in Detroit, Mr. Sunday
has given instructions that seveal
features be added to his usual pro-
gram for the satisfaction of the stu-
dent delegation present at his meet-
ing.
The first instructions were given
out to Director Cody of the Sunday
musical staff and were to the effect
that Mr. Cody should secure the Uni-
versity band to furnish the music for
his Ann Arbor appearance and the ac-
companiment of his picked choir.
Further orders stated thatpart of the
usual list of hymns should be substi-
tuted by some of the most familar
songs.
Next a block of 2,000 seats was set
aside for the students desirous of
hearing the evangelist. In order to
obtain one of these seats it will be
necessary to exchange an athletic
coupon for one of the reserved tick-
ets. The block set apart, to be re-
served, is down front, directly in front
of the speaker's stand.
75 MILITARY MEN TURN OUT
Enlistment Stations to Be Placed
Around Campus.
More than 75 men turned out at the
military training meeting at the Union
last night. "This means that the suc-
cess of the movement is assured,"
said a leader of the movement. Every
man present promised faithful obed-"
ience and attendance at the meetings.
The meeting originated from the de-
sire on the part of a number of stu-
dents to see that the enthusiasm dis-
played last year on the question of
military training be crystalized this
year into a definite and permanent or-
ganization. A committee will be ap-
pointed at once to undertake the dif-
ferent details of organization, and it is
hoped to secure an active participa-
tion in the work on the part of sev-
eral members of the faculty who are
known to be in sympathy with the
movement.
During the next few days enlist-
ment stations will be established about
the campus and enlistment blanks
handed out to those men who wish to
enter the organization. The Daily will
publish the locations of these stations.
Next Thursday night a drill will be
held, the place of the meeting to be
announced later. In the meantime
time those wishing to secure informa-
tion of the movement or to join the
organization can call L. M. Lyons,
'19M, at 2303-M, or N. H. Schermer,
'19E, at 993-J.

tween Law and Standard Oil
Company Employees.
Bayonne, N. J., Oct. 12.-The second
fatalityof the strike ofthe Standard'
Oil company's employees occurred this
afternoon when Isadore Malipsky, 22,
a lawyer, was shot and instantly killed
when a fusilade of shots were ex-
changed between several hundred
strikers and nearly 300 armed de-
tectives, policemen and special guards.

Twenty-five strikers were wounded.
The rioting began when 55 special
guards, 150 policemen and about 100
citizen deputies and firemen marched

police who had been on duty there for
nearly 36 hours. All were armed and
50 carried repeating rifles.

Railroad Officials Declare Deliberate
Attempt Was Made to Derail
Candidate's Train
(By Perry Arnold, United Press Staff
Correspondent.)
Louisa, Ky., Oct. 12.-Charles E.
Hughes put Pikeville, Pike county,
Kentucky, on the map today. No pres-
idential candidate ever before honor-
ed the village with his presence. The
Republican nominee spoke at the
courthouse square on Americanism in-
cidently paying his audience a deli-
cate compliment.
"I know the strength of character
and the resolution of purpose of the
good people of these mountains," he
said. "I do not expect there is a
place in America where I have had
greater desire to visit than in these
Kentucky mountains."
What railroad officials believe was
a deliberate attempt to derail the
special train on which Hughes was
travelling was discovered just before
the train left Paintsville this' after-
noon. One of the rails had been
smashed apparently with a sledge
hammer, trackmen said. A new rail
was put in place and the candidate
was delayed only for a few minutes.
"PEACE WITH OUT MORE
BLOOD" SAYS GERMN
Socialist Leader Charges French
Censors Keep People in Ignor-
ance of Fat.
Berlin, via Wireless to Sayville, L..
I., Oct. 12.-"The French censors are
keeping the French people in ignor-
ance of the fact that they can have
peace, with French and as well as
Belgium soil freed of Germans, with-
out shedding another drop of blood,"
Philip Scheidemann, Socialist leader
and supporter of Chancellor von Beth-
mann-Holweg, declared in a most im-
portant address at today's session of
the reichstag.
The meeting was marked by the an-
nouncement from National Liberal
Leader Bassemann that the main com-
mittee of the reichstag had reached no
conclusion in its discussion of the
question of reviving indiscriminae
warfare, but had agreed that there
should be no public discussion of the,
question in the reichstag. Schelde-
mann's speech created great interest.
"What is French will stay French;
what is Belgian will stay Belgian, and
what is German will stay German.
Th s the main basis upon which
ce will be constructed," he said,,
'but since Lloyd George and Premier
Briand preach war until the bitter
end, the chancellor is unable to talk
peace. The nations want peace. If
the contrary is said in any country
then it is an absolute swindle."
OPEN GYMNASIUM DURING NOV.
Freshmen Fai to Register for Physical
Exams; Must Be Done Soon.
As yet no definite date has been set
for the formal opening of the gym, but
on dope everything should be in readi-
ness about the .middle or last part of
November.
So far scarcely two hundred fresh-
men have reported to Dr. May for
physical examinations. Those who
have not made arrangements for being
examined should do so at once by
stopping in the gym and making an
appointment with Dr. May or his as-'
sistants whereby they could be ex-
amined in the near future.

As in former years no one will be.
permitted to take gym work until they'
have successfully passed the physical
examination. It would be to the ad-'
vantage of all concerned if this was at-]
tended to at the earliest possible date
so that the classes can be arranged
and be ready to start by the time the
gym reaches completion.

PRESIDENT HUTCHINS AND
HINSDALE TO LEAD
PROCESSION.

OPPONENT RAPPED
BY LLOYD-GEORGE
War Secretary Supports Timeliness of
"Knock-Out" Interview Be.
fore Critics.
PAPERS APPROVE EXPRESSION
(By Ed L. Keen, United Press Staff
Correspondent.)
London, Oct. 12. - Lloyd-George's
crushing rejoinder to Richard Holt,
one of his critics in commons yester-
day, received equal attention in the
newspapers today with Premier As-
quith's statement that there must be
no "precarious compromise, mas-
querading under the name of peace."
Holt criticised the war secretary's
recent statement on peace. He com-
plained that Lloyd-George used sport-
ing terms like the "knock-out" ex-
pression, that his statements were un-
compromising, that the war minister
was not the proper person to express
the government's viewson foreign pol-
icies.
Turning directly toward Holt, Lloyd-
George said, "What you really object
to is not the manner, but the text and
purport of this interview." Lloyd-
George added that he was simply
elaborating what the British and
French prime ministers had said, and
what the cabinet and military advisers
believed. He spoke with impressive
emphasis, and said he wished he were
at liberty to "tell the honorable mem-
bers how timely the interview was in
its appearance."
The London papers particularly em-
phasize Lloyd-George's declaration
that the interview was timely and es-
sential, and not merely a personal ex-
pression but the opinion of the cab-
inet and war committee 'and also of
England's allies.
"Between these words," said the
Daily Telegraph, referring to the time-
liness of the interview, "even the dull-
est imagination can read. Plainly the
interview was expressed in time to kill
an intended attempt at intervention,
and it succeeded. There is no need
to say where."
H. KIRK WHITE, '17, RESIGNS
FROM THE STUDENT COUNCIL
H. Kirk White's, '17, resignation
from the student council was received
by that body and accepted at their
second meeting last night.
Other business discussed at the
council's second meeting was that the
present junior and sophomore classes
must buy another tug-of-war rope to
be used in the spring contests. The
old rope used last year has become
unfit for use in another contest.
Another feature of the meeting was
when the student council debated the
question of whether or not the stu-
dent body understands their actions
and expressed the wish that any stu-
dent having ideas for' any improve-
ment in student life inform the coun-
cil of his idea or attend the next meet-
ing of the council.
The student council meets Thursday
evenings at 7:30 o'clock in room 105
