SPEEDING UP MEDICOS
BELIEVED BAD MOVE
TborOushness and Interne Practice Cur
tailnent Indorsed BY Defense Council

''Thoroughness Is an absolute require
ment OF all doctors graduated AZ tne
present time" declared william Z. BOT
den, dean Of the medical department OF
the George Washington University. yes
rterday. in reference 10 the decision OF
the deans OF medical colleges o. the
United States when they met here for
the purpose OF considering plans 70 speed
up the graduation OF Juniors
He said that the torpedoing OF hospl-
tai ships OF the allies by the Germans
has created . demand IN Europe for ooe-
tors, therefore medical school euthon-
ties had contemplated the holding OF
summer sessions that would enable jun
iors TO complete their courses about hair
year In advance OF schedule
But the American Medical Association,
1f which George washington University
IL a member. strongly oppose the speed
nE-up plan because OF the possioiiity OF
nefncieut teaching and lack OF adequate
experience tn inferno work The medical
board of the Council Of National Defense.
which issued the call for doctors, has
announced that after careful consioera-
ton II advises all medical schools 70
abandon the speeding-up plans OF con-
tinuous sessions as being undesirable and

GERMAN PEACE MOVE
DENOUNCED AS SHAM
Merely Playing to Discontinued Teu-
ton Populace, Officials Here Say.

Rr,tish. French and American officials
|here Yesterday denounced as a sham
the reported move for peace by Germany.
II was made plain that should such a
movement be made along the lines fol-
lowed by the imperial government during
its initial request for a peace convention,
Il would receive scant consideration by
the entente allies and the United States.
That such a movement will be made
within the near future was considered
uncertain here last night. In face Of the
deniaIs by certain German newspapers
Of the earlier Berlin story that Chan
cellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg would re-
veal Germany's peace terms in, an adj
dress in the Reichstag today, officials
here believed that the chancellor mad
charged his plans after learning that no
"In1perfect peace would be considered
by his enemies.
Anv expression of desire for peace
bv Germany at this time would be in
sincere and meant for home consump-
tom only, officials believed yesterday.
'aThe purpose of the German govern
ment is to keep the German people in
the belief that the war will last only a
little while longer" one American official
stated, and continued:
.'The German government is leading the
people along by false hopes Of an early
ending of the war In much the same
manner that a mule might be coaxed
along by walking along in front Of him
with straw"
The real reason Germany has never
publicly recognized that a state of war
exists with the United States, is that the
German people would then recognize that
an early peace is impossible without the
downfall of the German autocracy, State
Department officials SAID yesterday. Thus
do oficials account for the reported order
of the German government that Amert-
can citizens still in Germany be removed
from the list Of enemy aliens.

Hogs as Food Supply Aid
Calls Bankers Cooperation

The Department of Agriculture has en-
listed the aid OF the bankers throughout
the country to aid in the production of
pork. Their aid can be most valuable,
says the department, in financing the
pig clubs" which are for the most part
composed of farm boys and girls. Pigs
afford the quickest means OF replenish-
ing the meat supply OF the country and
bankers are asked to furnish the money
to the members OF pig clubs so that they
will be able to purchase pure bred sows
and boars. The department has suggested
to the banks a practical method of dealing
with these juvenile farmers, not only on
the hog question but for the purpose Of
enabling them to have calves, chickens
and other small livestock that they are
capable of raising and bringing to mar
keting age.
