MTDDLETOWN WANTS
 SCHOOL CIVIC LEAGUE
President George w. Carlson of Local Organization Goes There to Talk
 On Subject.
On Subject

President George w. Carlson of the Prevocational Grammar School Civic League at the invitation of the superintendent of schools in Middletown, visited that city this afternoon and delivered a talk before a student body on the accomplish ments of the Civic League here. MT. Carlson is a pupil in the Revocation al Grammar school and is an excep~ tionally bright young man. Yestcr- day he conducted the league eXer- ciseS in the school auditorium when Postmaster Delaney delivered a talk on the operation of the postal ser vice.
 The Civic League was formed last October and has proved more than successful. Its aim is not merely in structional, but it is designed to promote good citizenship and gives to the student body a large measure Of self government and personal respon- sibility It also aids in the develop ment of a good school spirit, The League is in operation at all times and has sub officers and committees who give material assistance to the faculty in the school administration.
 For example if a teacher is un avoidably absent from her room, an officer of the room division takes charge and at the close of the period a report is sent to the principal of the occurrence with notation of the conduct of the room during the teachers absence. If school property is lost or gets out of repair the League takes note of the fact and makes report. The Middletown su- perintendent of schools was so much impressed with the accomplishments of the League on a recent visit that he decided to introduce the idea into the Middletown schools and it is to explain the aims and purposes of the league that Mr. Carlson made his visit there this afternoon.

UNITED TO AMERICA
 BY TIES OF BLOOD
Progressive Party Leader in Reich stag Says He Hopes We Will
 Give Germany Justice.

London, April ', 12:42 D. m.- Friedrich Won Payer of the progress sive peoples party, touched upon German-American relations in an ad- dress in the Reichstag yesterday, from which Reuters Amsterdam correspondent quotes as follows:
 The political influence of America has risen with the duration of the war. Its growth lays the heaviest responsibility on those European states which caused the war.
 We must have the right to live and to be of some account. We feel ourselves united with America by ties of blood and we hope the American people will give us justice
 At the present moment America can perhaps render the world the greatest service by keeping out of reach of the flames of war.
 Common dangers and successes bind us to our allies. Cooperation in peace must follow comradeship in war"
 Herr Won Payer said the disposal of the submarine matter before the Reichstag was satisfactory to his party.

superiority over the American forces It was at Guerrero that the contrast between the manship of the two farces was demonstrated. There, the troopers of the Seventh Cavalry, shooting coolly and steadily, sent almost every bullet to it's mark, while General Hernandez's soldiers fired wildly as they ran, nearly all shooting high above the heads of the Americans As a result whe1, the smoke of the engagement had cleared it was learned that only four Ameri- can cavalrymen had been slightly wounded, while fifteen times that number of Villa followers had been killed and as many more wounded.
 A similar demonstration of marks manship at Aguas Ca1ientes con- firmed the suspicion already growing in the minds of the bandits that the ability of the Americans had been rnisrepresented to them, according to arrivals here.

 Army men here point out that, al- though important, the moral effect upon Villas command of the disl lay of American craftsmanship is a minor consideration as compared with the effect upon the peons of the district, where Villa is popular idol. Realizing this, General Per- shing has taken every precaution to prevent outbreaks among the Villa adherents and has placed small de- tachments in towns along the Ameli- can line of communication not gar r1soned by Carranza troops.
