COLUMBIA SCIENTISTS
READY FOR WAR SERVICE
Professors Pupin and Slichter Actively
Aiding Preparedness Plans

Scientific instruction at Columbia, In
case of war, is to be subordinated to
pressing national needs. Ii has been
planned TO send several instructors TO
the New York Navy Yard to take the
places Of officers who will be assigned
TO ships. An announcement concern
ing this and other features Of the pre-
paredness work at Columbia probably
will be made by President Nicholas
Murray Butler this week.
Already members of the faculty are
devoting much OF their time to the
perfection Of combustion engines for
submarines and aeroplanes. Professor
Michael l. Pupin has turned over to the
government an invention facilitating
wireless communication and is at work
on other problems.
Walter Irvine Slichter, professor OF
electrical engineering, was instru-
mental in having electric turbines IN
stalled in the New Mexico and other
battleships under construction. Pro-
lessor Slichter declared that for
four years Columbia has been training
Annapolis men in electrical turbine
work and that there is hardly a first
class ship in the navy that has not one
of Columbia's graduates aboard at
present.

Nationwide Move
To Organize Women
For War Is Begun
Suffragists at Mass Meeting in
|. Note to Wilson Pledge Sup
port to Country

Washington, Feb. 25.-A nationwide
movement TO organize women for war
service was planned here to-day at a
mass meeting called by the National
American Woman Suffrage Association,
addressed by Secretary Baker and at
tended by Secretaries Daniels and Nc
Adoo. A note adopted by the executive
council of the association to be sent
to President Wilson says:
1--WE devoutly hope and pray that our
country's crisis may be passed without
recourse TO war We declare our be
lief that the settlement of interna-
tional difficulties by blOodshed is I'M
worthy of the twentieth century and
our confidence that our government is
using every honorable means TO avoid
conflict.
"If, however, our nation is drawn into
the maelstrom we stand ready 70 serve
our country with the zeal and conse-
Grafton which should ever characterize
those who cherish high ideals of the
duty and obligation of citizenship. With
no intention of laying aside our con-
structive, forward work TO secure the
vote for the womanhood of this coun-
II
we offer our services to our country in
the event they should be needed, and.
in so far as We are authorized, we
pledge the loyal services of our more
than two millions of members"
To unity the efforts of all women's
organizations and cooperate with gov
eminent authorities, the association
plans TO form a central committee
composed of representatives from
leach national organization of women
willing to aid in war work, if the
need arises" The suffrage association
itself expects TO establish a bureau to
work out plans for employing women
in positions left vacant by men who
might go to war.
Secretary Baker in his address dis
cussed the elimination of waste, which
the war in Europe had effected. There
is no people so wasteful as we are" he
said.
Other speakers we're Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, president of the associa-
ton. DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, honorary
president. and Mrs. Harriet Taylor Up
ton. Of Ohio.

Of the tasks for the extra session. IN
deed. the desire for this is one OF the
guiding motives in bringing forth the
call for the session.
Description of the effort Of the
President TO force ratification of this
treaty on the plea that it was mill
tary necessity as "blackmail' by SEN
ator Lodge on the floor yesterday gives
an idea of the temper Of the Senators
opposing the treaty. This feeling is
shared by a large number OF Repuoh-
cans in the upper house, and il is not
at all unlikely tina, the Administration
may not be able to muster the neces-
sary two-thirds vote TO ratify the
treaty.
Another question for the extra ses-
sion which Will result in much discus
sion is the Grayson confirmation. The
opposition 10 The promotion of the
Presidents physician to medical direc-
tor Of the navy, with the rank of rear
admiral, is so strong that only strenu-
Gus efforts will result in confirmation
by the Senate.
The President is most anxious to
have the rules Of the Senate so revised
that filibusters will be impossible. For
this reason it is probable that the first
step of the extra session may De an at
tempt TO force through a cloture rule,
as the adoption of that, could 1t be ac-
complished, would greatly simplify the
Colombian treaty and Grayson fights
There would be a most vigorous fight
on this, however, as many Of the older
Democratic Senators are as strongly
opposed to cloture as are the old line
Republicans. Indeed. on the question
of the merit Of the proposition there
are more Republican than Democratic
Senators who favor cloture.

Boston. Feb 25.-0pposing decla-

"How many Mexican soldiers were
shot at the taking of Vera Cruz? The

continued, IAN injury has been done,

Had we not better stand by our
selves than stand by the President"
He criticised newspapers as being
mot perfectly honest" saying that
some were subsidized BY munitions
makers. LET the American people

think that newspapers portray public
opinion. And for Gods sake, keep
these meetings going"
The meeting was held under the
auspices of the Emergency Peace Com
mittee of Massachusetts to protest
against war.
Representative Galloway is the man
who charged that twenty-five news
papers had been subsidized BY "the j.
p. Morgan interests, the steel, ship
building and powder interests" in
order to control their policy on pre-
paredness and militarism. He refused
to divulge the names of the newspapers
concerned when "The New York
World" offered $1,000. He declared he
would name the newspapers only be-
fore Congressional investigating

PLANT MORE CORN

The most effective way to remedy the probable shortage in the wheat crop is to plant corn, says the United States department of agriculture.
 Ordinarily the quantity of corn pro- duced in the United States is from three to four times the quantity of wheat, but only very small portion of the crop-from 5 to 10 per cent has been used for human food. This amount may be estimated in normal times at about 200,000,000 bushels a year. Not over per cent has been exported in peace-times. A relative ly slight increase in the corn acre. age, therefore, will place many mill ions of bushels, more of human food at the disposal of the world without interfering in any way with the feed needed for the support of live stock.
 In the past, with an abundance of grain of other kinds, corn has not been in great demand for human con- sumption. But with other grains no longer abundant, circumstances will compel more general recognition of | the value of cornaas human food. The department is urging strongly the wider use of corn in the diet. It is the best substitute for wheat that we have and can be utilized in breads, mushes and variety of other ways. We should make every effort to avail ourselves of it..943of1t
 "Plant corn,' then should be the motto of every farmer in section suited to the crop.
