LONDON PROH|B. WINS IN HARD
 FIGHT

LONDON, Dec. 10.-The efforts of the liquor interests to secure greater liberty of trade relations during the war met with a severe check today, when Samuel Durk, postmaster-gen- eral in the present government, was reelected to parliament despite the active opposition of the liquor inter ests, who feared Durk because of his outspoken endorsement of the pro hibition movement, especially during the present military crisis. Durk was opposed by a man named Knight, a printer, who made a campaign backed with plenty of money, and claiming that he was the candidate of the la, bor unions. Knight was overwhelm- ingly defeated.

The essential feature of the profes- sor's invention, according to the Austrian newspapers, is a method of weaving electric heating threads into soldiers pants and coats, and then connecting the threads with a bat tery or supply wires at a distance of from 100 yards to a quarter of mile, It is asserted that the current can be regulated so that any number of sol, dlers in the trenches can be kept warm simultaneously.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. Dec. 8. - Emil Hurja, of Fairbanks, Alaska. writer and editor of the Uni. versity of Washington Daily, left Se- attle at o'clock, November 30, for New York, to become a member of the Henry Ford peace commission to Europe. MT. Hurja was nominated by President Suzzallo as representa- tive of the student body of the uni versity in response to a telegram re- celved from MT. Ford.
 The Washington delegate was a member of party of students from sixteen representative American uni versailles, according to the telegrams, and will be the guest of Mir. Ford for a six weeks tour of neutral Europe. The first party left New York on Saturday, December 1, but Hurja went with the overflow, sailing De- cember 8. He reached Gotham too late for the first ship.
 Mr. Hurja was nominated by Presi- dent suzzallo after a special session with the board of deans. The nomi- nation was made on the same basis as the Rhodes scholarship awards A belief in international understand ing and federation was made a re- uuisite, and a knowledge of a foreign language was declared to be an as set. MT. Hurja speaks Finnish.
 Mir. Hurja is a junior at the uni versity, and is a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity.
 A spike pulling test on Douglas fir cross ties was conducted recently at the government testing station at the university, under the supervision of C. w. Zimmerman. The idea of the test is to determine the holding force of the wood when used for railroad ties as compared with other woods. There is always danger when spikes work loose, and wrecks are often caused by the shifting of the rails.
 The test will be of interest to  Alaska. because a large amount Of the wood that will be used for ties on the new government railroad will be native fir.
