LOSSES OF GERMANS ON
AISNE REPORTED HEAVY

Paris, April 27.-The extent of the
German losses in the recent dispatch
fighting along the Aisne is partially
disclosed in the reference in today's
othcial statement to the capture of
$50 guns, of which considerable
number were of heavy caliber.
The German losses in men are esti-
mated at more than 100000. with the
probability that the total reached 235.-
5000, These figures include killed,
wounded and prisoners and constitute
ono on the most formidable totals of
the present war.
The number of German prisoners
aggregate approximately 100000 The
usual formula among military experts
is to estimate the casualties at FIVE
times the number of prisoners. but
this five to one ratio has not held good
in the present case owing to the ex-
ceedingly sanguinary character of the
lighting for the mastery of the stra-
tegic position on the Chemin-Des-
Danes plateau.

fore retiring at night. They cost lit

WAR ARMY BILL

is CHIEF THING To BE HAIR
MONIZED. HOUSE FIXES IT
AT FORTY YEARS.

Washington, April 29.-Congrcss
will go to work tomorrow to smooth
away differences between the drafts of
the war army bill as passed last night
BY the senate and mouse. Wish the
administrations plan for raising the
courtry's millions of fighting men by
selective draft accepted in both houses
by overwhelming najorities. it is re-
garded as certain that points III dis
pute can be disposed Of in conference
SO that the measure may go to the
president for his signature before the
end of the week.
The parliamentary tangle resulting
from the almost simultaneous action
by the two houses requires the next
move to be made on the senate Side.
The bill must be repassed there, with
Interpretation of the rules, Tor further
unlimited opportunity under strict
Interpretation of the rules, for further
debate and amendments 1t then will
go to conference with the principal
task that of harmonizing the two
houses on, the maximum CONSUMPTION
age, fixed by the senate at q and by
the house at 49,
After preliminary business tomor-
row, probably including some action
on resolutions regarding the railroads
application for increased freight rates,
the senate will take up the final bill
anew, with a motion to substitute the
draft section for that which came
from the house Technically the bill
will be subject to unrestricted discus
sion, but leaders hope it can be re-
passed without proatracted debate to-
morrow night or Tuesday.

The house burned belonged to Mr..

College Endowments
Should Be Exempted

Atlanta, Ga, April 3O-Direct ap-
peal to Georgia legislators to cast a
patriotic vote for state and nation
and pass bill for the exemption OF
college endowments would do far
more good if left in the treasures OF
being made by members OF the Medl-
cal Association Of Georgia.
Leading doctors have placed them
selves squarely on record as favoring
the lifting OF the tax on college en-
dowments, taking the stand that 10y
atty in the present cri-.s of the
United States demands such step
and that in the face OF the appeal OF
the Federal government to increase
the number OF medical graduates
Georgia no longer can afford to ham
per this patriotic service by taking
colleges and keeping down the stan
dard and that funds the state at pres
ent is deriving from the taxation OF
college endowments would far more
good if left in the treasures OF the
colleges than if taken into the treas
ury of the state.
At the recent meeting of the Medi-
cal Association Of Georgia in Angus
ia, resolutions introduced by DR.. S.
K. Roberts and seconded by DR.. W.
W. Pitcher were passed to the effect
that, 1T is the sense of this associa-
ton that the tax on college endow-
ments should be lifted, that, by so do
ing, medical education in the state
may be fostcred'
Said one noted and patriotic ply
scian III connection with this action:
Il hope an appeal to the editors OF
Georgia newspapers will result in
their spreading this appeal through
ali the state which will assuredly mean
an awakening to the Importance of
immediate action"
The raising OF standards by the
Medical Association and the
incorporation of these standards in
to the laws of most Of the States have
brought to an end very many medical
colleges and also reduced the number
of students attending these which
have been able to survive. In Geor-
gia this year the medical students
who will be graduated will not be suf-
ficient to furnish internes for the hos
pitfalls in the state, to say nothing OF
taking the places of physicians who
have died during the year, or who
have been taken into the medical and
naval service OF the Federal govern
ment.
''Not few Of the medical students
graduating this year have been en-
listed in the service of the army ant
navy, and the Federal government /:
asking the medical colleges in Geor
gia to do all they can to increase the
number of their graduates. But how
can this service to the country b.
rendered if the endowments of medi
cal colleges in Georgia are mulcted b!
taxation, a policy which is not fol
lowed in most of the state of thu
union OF all the Southern state

unwise policy.
The funds which the State derive
from taxation of college endowment
would do more good to the common
wealth if left in the treasures of tn,
colleges than if taken into the treas
ury of the state Such being the case
it is bad bushes for Georgia to con
tinue longer this policy which wa
not inaugurated until 1877, and which
has hindered education in Georgi;

Metlakatla is, Defeated By'a2S to 2 Score In Game LAat ;;
 Night

Nosing out the fast MetIakatla school team by one point in a hard and fur. ious struggle in; the most >streRuously- contested game ever played on the Moose hall floor. Ketchikan proved her supremacy over the native team for the second time during the past month and emerged the yictors over. Metlakatla g to 22.
 The first half looked dubious for Ketchikan as the local team did not play a great team game, but again, as in the previous game, ,aggresiveness and good guarding played the deciding factor. Metlakstla also shot. her foul shots with deadly accuracy while Ret chiksn threw away most of her chan. ces. and the first half ended with Met lakatla. six points ahead.
 The second half opened with Ketch- ikan determined to overcome the lead and the playing was rough and ready on both sides. Towards the end of the game two spectacular shots by Ketchikan brought them within point of Metlakatla and one basket only was required to win. Time and time again they shot only to have the ball roll tantalizingly round the rim and drop of the outside. The Metlakatla boys were unable to maks-any more baskets however. and just about two minutes before the end of the game. Kstchi. kan succeeded in 'caging the ball and held the lead of one point to the end.
 Metlakatla rooters. including the en- tire stan of the .Govespment school teachers, turned out in force coming over in three boats sad rooted vsli- antly for their team. Nearly three hundred spectators witnessed the hot contest.
