University Notes

''Collegc Men and Community Lead
ership' was the gist of Raymond Rob
ms adress to men only in the univer
sity chapel last night. In part he said,
"We are going to do things with
folks in the future. The action Of
the community win condition life
even if lived on the most secluded
ranch in eastern Oregon. AS illustra-
tive of his theme the publication OF
America S life he gave a vivid account
of his experiences cleaning up the sew
enteenth ward in the west side of Chi
cago. He characterized a foreign com
munity in a great industrial center as
a point where stress is greatest in the
breakdown Of the social welfare The
fight in this was chiefly directed II
gainst "Buck" Server, the political
boss of the ward. To fight him the re-
formers did not need to tell the peo
Il pie he was CRATER, they knew it,
but honored him all the same. In this
: the Christian method was used. The
| little band that initiated the reform,
found some vital point in the life Of
the people, where good work would
mean the most. at won t do any good
to talk about Things, guess about
things, you must know things"
With this idea in mind the party
conducted a scientific investigation Of
the ward S food and sanitary condi-
tions. While discovering that the milk
and meat was rotten, and that the gar
bage was seldom hauled away, they
found that the ward was honeycombed
with graft Realizing that actions
speak louder than words, means were
provided that the poor could get pure
milk for their babies. After cleaning
up one thing another was attacked, un-
til Robins and his co-workers entered
politics to get control of the social life
that modern society demands. After a
hard bitter fight, that was greeted
first only by defeats, the corrupt polit-
zeal machine of the community was
| broke.
Another lecture for men only has
been arranged for tonight at 1870 in
the chapel Robins farewell address
will be at mass meeting in the Meth
odist church, Wednesday night.

Activities Of Braun
Arouse Suspicion

New York, Mar. 13.-Questioning Of
seamen regarding Gustav Braun, secre
tary of the Atlantic district, Interna-
tional Seamen's Union Of America, led
marine circles here to the belief today
that the department of justice is taking
an active interest in the strike for 70
per cent wage bonus by seamen who
were to have taken the Atlantic trans
port freight ship Manchuria from New
York to London.
Unknown men appearing on the docks
have thoroughly questioned these sea-
men regarding the activities of Braun
and his connections with the union.
Braun has threatened to call out other
seamen when efforts are made to move
other American-dwned ships.
Braun declares he is naturalized
American citizen from Sweden and that
he has voted in this country for IA
years. He frequently receives mail ad-
dressed to Gustav Brown.

ORDERS ARE READY
FORGUNNERS ON SHIPS
Rules Of Conduct for Navy
Men On Merchant Ships
Adopted
BY Carl D. Groat

UNITED Press staff correspondent
Washington, March l3.-Instructions
to American navy gunners regarding
their conduct in defending United
States armed merchantmen from Ger
man submarines in Germany s barred
death area. are completed and approx
ed, and will be issued whenever need
ed"
Secretary of the Navy Daniels drew
the orders and then in two conferences
with Secretary of State Lansing, made
some changes, believed to. be minor.
Daniels, who announced today com
pletiOn of the instructions, declared
they would be secret and said he had
control of the situation so that the
contents would not be made public
from any source.
There will be little delay in forward
ing the instructions, ii is assumed.
Daniels, however, declined to give the
exact time ON the ground that this
would serve as a means of showing the
sailing dates of the armed ships
President Wilson, it is understood,
saw the orders when they were com
pleted and with secretary Lansing ap-
proved them.
Secretary Daniels made the specific
request that newspapers refrain from
any speculation or inference as to the
contents of the order.
The United States government is moi
placing armed guards aboard the mer
chant men to protect eontraband ear
goes.
The official announcement to thC
world yesterday, confirming the armed
guard plan, specifically omitted men
tion of protection of the cargo, saying
only that the guards were placed aboart
to protect lives and property.
This was taken to be notification
that the government wishes it clearly
understood that it recognizes the righ
to destroy contraband, but insists tina
this be done. in accordance with inter
national law-not through unwarned at
tacks.

COMMERCIAL CLUB TO
CONSIDER MOVING
Matter Of Getting Quarters In
SteusIOf Building Up
Wednesday Night

Members Of the Commercial club will
have something of vital interest to talk
about at the special meeting called for
Wednesday evening of this week.
AT the meeting of the directors last
evening, plans were submitted for the
securing of new quarters for the club,
as the present lease expires within a
few months.
The proposition to be placed before
the members is whether to secure quar-
ters in the new building to be erected
by Steusloff Bros, for the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company, on
Liberty street just opposite the Elks ,
temple.
The plans as submitted give the sec
ond and third stories of the building
to the Commercial club and the building
to be known as the Chamber of Com
merce building
The building is to be SO by 90 feet
social or reading room, 20 by SO feet j;
a billiard room 36 by 80 feet; the three
offices of the club; kitchen 10 by 10
which is necessary on account of the
number of banquets served coat room
10 by II and ladies' parlor 10 by 10
feet.
On the third floor will be located the
auditorium 40 by 90 feet with coat
rooms and serving kitchen On this
floor also are five offices to be rented.
There will be an elevator and also stair
ways.
Figured from financial standpoint,
it will cost the club more than the rent
that is now being paid. Those in ia
vor of the change feel that one of the
principal advantages will be that of
having an auditorium for the use of the
various conventions that come to the
city and for the use of the clubs and or
ganizations that are in need Of a suit.
able place for special meetings.
All sides of the proposal are to be
brought before the members Wednesday
evening and as this is the biggest
proposition that has come before the
club for some time, the indications arc
good for live and interesting session.
