As running mate for King, the Harvard left half back, Boles, the right half, has been showing some re- markable line plunging ability in practice and will probably get into the game against Yale.
 Although Enright has been play ing with the substitutes there is be- lief that he will be sent in during the first part of the game in place of Boles. Enright was out of the game most of the season and is not expect ed to be able to stand the grueling fight of the Yale game, so Boles will be held in reserve.

Head of Navy

LONDON, Dec. S.-Lord Charles Beres-

clared today that conduct of the war

conflict indefinitely. He sharply criticised
what he called the "mismanagement."
holding the Cabinet responsible for pres
ent conditions.
I'VE are in a tangle or mudde of mis-
management" said Lord Beresford. "Our
military campaigns are being conducted
without objective or plan. Policy only
is considered, The war staffs have not
been consulted as to whether they had
men and material for enforcing the diff
ficult policies inaugurated by the Cabinet
I'VE have not taken full advantage of
our mastery of the sea. In every depart

IN BOY-ED CASE
Ambassador Absolved Of
Any Connection With
Plots or Improper
Activities
GERMANY TO GIVE IN
WASHINGTON, Dec. s.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.
The United States will procure safe
conducts for the German attaches, Cap
tains Boy-Ed and Won Papen, as soon
as Berlin issues the formal notification
of their recall. The German Foreign Of
flee will accede to the demands of the
United states without further parley, it
was reported today.
The controversy between Secretary Lam
sing and Count Won Bernstorff concern
ing the charges or reasons that led to
the request for their recall has been set
tied Captain Boy-Ed has gone to New
York and is not expected to return to
Washington. With Captain Won Papen he
will begin at once to arrange his affairs
in preparation for his trip across the At
lantic under British and French promises
of protection
The arrangements for the withdrawal
of the naval and military attaches of
Germany without further controversy
was brought about through an exchange
of notes between Secretary Lansing and
Count vor Bernstorff. Shorn of diplo-
matte verb.age. the compromise may be
stated as follows:
Secretary Lansing gave count yon
Berns:orff a clean bill of health in every
particular and absolved him of any con-
necton whatever with improper activi-
ties in this country.
Secretary Lansing assured Count Won
Bernstorff that the United States Gov
ernment has not charged, intimated or
suggested in any way that Captain Boy
Ed or Captain Won Papen has been In
volved In any political activities against
the United States or any of the indi-
vidual States.
As far as the records of the Govern
ment are concerned the attaches have
been held blamable only in relation to
the Hamburg-American case and in the
Archibald Dumba incident
This diplomatic disclaimer on the part
of this Government in writing appears to
have satisfied the German Ambassador In
every detail. and he is now content to
part with his naval and military aides.
It is probable rhat Secretary Lansing
will make formal application today to
the British and French Ambassadors for
the safe conduct 1t Is assumed that he
has sounded the diplomats already.
Diplomats are supposed to be immune
from arrest by their enemies In the cir
cumstances under which the two Ger
man officers will leave the United States.

The men in the ranks, the workers who
have to toll hard for bare livelihood,
hold varying views regarding President
Wilson's message.
Those who are working in the industries
fear the adoption Of the Presidents sug-
gestion regarding a tax on oil, iron, steel
and other things would affect their
wages. They figure that employers would
endeavor to retrench in some direction
and think OF their payrolls first.
Small shopkeepers also expressed their
dsapproval of the tax feature, because
they believed 1t would mean additional
burdens Many also expressed the belief
that the suggestions for preparedness
were out of order. ana contended that we
needed more schools and other public in
stitutions. In some cases the opposition
views were held for selfish reasons. The
waiter and the barber, for instance, said
their tips would be cut down If their pa
irons had to pay more taxes.
Following are some of the opinions ex-
pressed:
GEORGE T. POWERS, bank clerk, s73o
Frankford avenue.-The only thing l
can say Is that the proposed tax on
checks will add to the work of the bank
employees. l don't see anything wrong
in taxing gasoline and engines. Let
the rich pay the bills.
THEODORE j. HOPKINS, farmer and
trucker, Camden County, New Jersey
! voted for President Wilson, but
won't do II again. There is nothing
Just In making the farmer pay the def
cts of the Government caused by the
war If these deficits are to be met,
let us tax the ammunition makers who
are profiting from the war, and not
the farmer who is unable to stand
further taxation.
FRED MUELLER, saloonkeeper 2347 Or
thodox street.-All this talk about hy-
phenated Americans makes me sick.
What about the Anglo Americans?
They are the ones who are making the
most trouble for the country. If Presi-
dent Wilson means what he says, why
doesn't he arrest the English agents in
this country. This ill-advised message
will be answered next November.
PAUL NJ. MELLON, carpenter, $40 Ben
son street. Camden-I don't approve OF
the Presidents message. What do we
want with a bigger army and navy?
After this war there won't be anybody
left to fight. And as for taxing auto
mobiles. 1t makes no difference to me
