which is to promote tennis playing
among women here, was tentatively

reach players who now do not have
facilities for playing and to aid in
plans for the construction of tennis
courts throughout the city
1T was decided at the meeting last
night that all woman players should
be active members of the league; that
women contributing to the league but
VINO did not play should be associate
members, and that man players should
be honorary members, but that they
should not participate in the league
tournaments and matches. The league
has in contemplation plan for bring
ing boys and girls into Its membership
as junior members. hoping thus to
develop players at an early age.
Dues will be paid by active members
to the central organization, and also to
sectional organizations. according to
arrangements made in the various sec
tons These sections will represent
schools and government departments
Courts will be provided by each section
organization on which practice and
tournament matches may be played by

Leaders Make Protests.

me leaders of the various parties
protested against the remarks made
by Deputy Ledebour. Maj Ernst Bas-
sermann, national liberal member
said
We regret the necessity for such
reprisals. but IL the Russians burn on
all sides and violate women shall we
consider that this does not demand
such action from our military authori-
ties as will put stop to the inhuman
warfare waged by the Russians?"
Herr Gretchen of the center party
said that If the military authorities
were compelled, in view of Russia's
actions. to take the severest reprisals
in the shape of measures which are
permissible under international law,
they should not be hindered by the
representatives. Of the people.
Places Responsibility.
Philip Scheidemann, socialist
deputy. declared in the name Of his
party that Herr Ledebour was invit-
ed to speak only on the language Of
the question; his other remarks were
made on his own account and he alone
bears the responsibility for them"
asserted that he would not be worthy
his present situation If he replied to
Herr Ledebour's speech.
For every one present today" de-
clared the minister. this hour will be
among his bitterest memories. Herr
i.edebours criticism is unconstitutional
and insulting in form, and Is directed
d gainst the most honored army leader.
Cites German Invincibility.
The war has taught US that We
are materially and morally richer than
ae believe and that the German faith
erland is a holy treasure for every
German, without consideration of re-
iIgion or party. Matters which divided
US in times of peace now have been set
aside in this imperishable success,
which offers new proof to the enemy

OF the German people"
