To Credit War Drill.

National preparedness received an
other boost when the board OF
regents of the University of Michi.
gan voted unanimously to follow the
recommendation of the faculty of the
engineering college and grant credit
toward graduation to all students of
the department who regularly enroll
in and attend any of the summer mill
tary camps this summer.
The resolution as adopted provides
that students OF the college of en-
cheering who shall present q gov
eminent certificate that they have sat
isfactorily completed the prescribed
course of military training, requiring
q flve-week period during the summer
Of 1916, shall receive two hours Of
credit toward graduation, with an ad-
ditional hour to those who shall be
formally reported to have qualified
before October /, as expert rifiemen."
The University of Michigan is the
second university in the United
States to take such direct step in
recognition of the summer camps.
Dartmouth having passed similar
resolution several months ago.
The board also accepted the offer of
Detroit motor car company to pay
all expenses of two Michigan students
at the Plattsburg camp this summer,
and President Hutchins was instruct
ed to make the appointments.
Steps were also taken which will
make possible the use of university
books and library equipment by
high schools and societies throughout
the state in debates.
The annual budget OF $1,916,154.99
was apportioned among the colleges
OF the university. The budget
shows an increase of per cent. or
approximately 100000 over the to-
tai expended last year for mainte-
nance OF the university.
The board decided that the presi-
dents residence On the campus,

Dalrymen Organize.

Four hundred farmers. repres eating

college and organized the Michigan
MIX Producers association.
The new organization will have as
it's object the Improvement OF dairy
conditions throughout Michigan and
the increasing of the price paid the
farmer for his milk.
Officers were elected as follows:
President, N. p. Hull. Dimondale;
vice president, r. G. Reed. Howell;

Plans now arranged call for a state
wide organization. backed by numer-
GUS local groups. which will cope with
local conditions. Definite plans for
action we're not submitted, but are be-
ing considered by members of the
board Of directors.
II Is said by those in charge that
It Is probable a state leader will be
employed.
Although the meeting was really
called to take steps to increase the
price received for milk. no action was
taken towards fixing any price.
Figures showing the cost of milk
production are being compiled by the
Michigan Agricultural college and will

o short time.
The meeting was one OF the most
enthusiastic ever held at East Lans-
ing.
Resolutions we're unanimously
adopted calling upon congress to lay

said to exist because dairy products
are the only canned foods not pro-
tected by tariff.

Denmark.

The Chicago Herald comments as
follows upon the story recently pub
lished of proposed sale Of the West
Indies to the United States: Den
marks agreement to sell the Danish
West Indies to the United States may
not inaptly be described as stretching
a hand OF friendship to this country.
1t is an act the more appreciated be-
cause of knowledge that it Is against
the known desires of a very great Eu-
ropean power-desires which In the
past were able to thwart such an ar
rangement This is by no means the
first time that Denmark has stretched
a hand of friendship to the United
States. Harry Cramer Of Chicago
sends the Herald clipping from Har-
per's Weekly Of May 20, 1854, which
tells how Denmark, at that time en-
gagged in the war over Schleswig- Hol-
stein with Prussia and Austria, gave
a most striking sign of friendly regard.
Though then controlling the North sea
against Prussia, Denmark granted the
request OF the United States that the
Bremen and hamburg steamers, en-
envy merchant vessels plying to New
York, pass free of seizure by her cruis-
ers. The article In Harper's Weekly
rightly characterizes this as a most
unusual act of amity. and says 1t is
done by Denmark. as its government
expressly states from her friendly feel
ing for this country. Nor is 1t likely
to be soon forgotten"

One Of the busiest men In all Swe-
den today IL the American minister.
Ira Nelson Morris. He has taken
over the task of locating Russian and
German prisoners and arranging for
their exchange. Because Of the cold
weather and the frozen conditions
which have prevailed In the North this
has been halted for several months,
but now greater activity is again the
order of the day. The prisoners ex-
changed by Germany and Russia are
usually men who have been so badly
injured that they are no longer Mt for
military service. Trains carrying the
exchanged prisoners run the length Of
Sweden, crossing the Russo-Swedish
border at Haparanda. The German
representatives usually meet their
countrymen at Hallsberg. Often the
members Of the German legation In
Stockholm are present. including
Freiherr Won Lucius. the German min
lister to Sweden; Major Aveyden. the
military attache. and Baron Freys,
counselor of the legation. The Swe
dish Red Cross agents minister to the
soldiers on the way. Prince Carl,
brother of King Gustaf, is official rep
resentative of the Red Cross and &C
