ernor OF the club, fled with Secretary
Of War Baker charges aimed chiefly at
Major William Mitchell, second In COM
mand Of the aviation section. An In
vestigation resulted, and report was
made, stating that the Federal aerial
service had been found satisfactory

MUNSTERBERG'S
NOTE ASSAILED
Harvard Colleague De-
mands Inquiry Into
Mediation Letter

Boston, Oct. IA public inquiry
into the statements in the letter con-
corning mediation written by Profess
sor Hugo Mdnsterberg, OF Harvard
University, to DR.. Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg, Chancellor Of the German En-
pire, was demanded to-day by Profess
sor William Ernest Hooking, col
league Of Professor Munsterberg in
the Harvard Department Of Phil
osophy.
In an open letter TO DR.. Minister
berg, Professor Hooking implies that
his associates activities appear to be
prejudicial TO the German cause in
America, and asserts "the natural in
ferences from this letter as published
are so grave as to justify this public
inquiry"
Professor Mdn.terberg's letter,
which was intercepted in the mails by
British authorities several weeks ago,
but the author of which was not dis
closed until last Monday, reported to
the German Chancellor that propa-
gandists were slowly interesting Pres
ident Wilson in the idea Of media
ton. "Once he works himself into the
idea of being the arbitrator OF the
world" the writer said, "he will De so
intoxicated by the Joy OF playing a
historic part that he will give himself
up 70 il with his whole soul"
The communication Of professor
Hooking, in part, follows:
my dear Professor Mdnsterberg-
CbarcaIIor Won Rath-
mann-Hollweg, recently made public by
the British government, is one in which
every American has an interest, espe-
cially those who are closely associated
with you in academic work and who
feel q natural pride in the honor OF the
university and of the department IN
which you are now the senior member.
"Ostensiblv your report TO your
Chancellor IS a simple report OF facts.
You say that there has been slump in
the German American cause, meaning
BY this that there has been "a tendency
10 accentuate Americanism, and 70
avoid what might be construed as IA
voring Germany You speak OF pa
triotic wave in this country, which has
swept along with IL all the weaker ele-
ments, meaning perhaps the elements
of weaker character, or Of weaker Ger
man attachments.
"You assure the Chancellor that
many of the German-A Americans who
are now beginning TO emphasize their
LOYALTY 20 America are indeed against
war with Germany, but in Americas,
not Germany's, interest. Do you regret
that these American citizens are doing
their thinking in Americas interest
rather than In the interest OF Ger
many?
"Bv what name would such activities
be called in your own fatherland"

ron Of the New York National Guard,
explained yesterday how the aviation
section purposes to use the Guardsmsn
aviators.
"The Guard will be taken into the
Federal service by units" said he. "The
ideal unit is one, not in which every
man Is a hier, but consisting OF about
thirty mechanics, helpers, etc, and
six hiers. The aviation section will
have $4,000 approximately - TO
spend upon aviation. They can spend
as much Of that as they like upon the
Guard. The government purposes TO
train two men at the San Diego school.
send them back TO their state, and let
them train the rest Of the squadron
II the Guard Is used, they will De takel
into Federal service as unit. not a.
