ENGLISH COLLEGES
PREPARE FOR WORK

London, Feb. 17.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press. English
universities are preparing for
heavy invasion of American and CO.
lonial students Immediately after the
war. The invasion will not only be
welcomed, but invited, and the gov
eminent plans to give its coopera-
ton in the establishment of uni
form system of postgraduate courses
IN institutions of higher education
throughput the country.
DR.. H. A. L. Fisher, the minister
OF education, in an appeal urging coz
operation between the universities
and the government, says: "oxford
is considering some new courses of
advanced study especially attractive
to students from the colonies, from
Allied countries, and from the United
States. There will be great practical
advantage if the other British uni
versities establish courses roughly
uniform with this program.
II have recently been approached
from many quarters by foreign gov
ernments which desire to ascertain
what our English universities are
prepared to do for students of their
countries after the war. I have no
obvious means of shaping the course
of university policy throughout the
country, but hope the univers cs
will combine in some common scl1sa:e
for attracting foreign students to
advanced courses.
Something more ought to be done
to encourage the exchange of teach
ers between the universities in the
Dominions and in the mother coun-
try. There would be a real practi-
cal advantage if the universities
could come together with common
scheme, - interchange VIA India
and the eGsJnies.a

WAR DRAFT MAY Be
ACUTE QUESTION
States Have Power to Enroll
Citizens in the National
Guard.

Drafting or conscription of men for
service in the national guard when
the guard is called into the Federal
service may become an acute ques-
tion il. many of the States II war
c JEes.
Governor whitman. of New York,
recently said that he had power to
draft men for military servtoe, ana
could do so under State law.
Under the army reorganization acf'
provision is made, when national
guard forces are called into Federal
service, for the formation Of a re-
serve battalion for each regiment go
called out. Thus, IL a State sent
three regiments to the front 1t would
be supposed to form a reserve bat
TALON for each regiment. From the
reserve battalion of a regiment men
would be sent from time to time TO
make up for depletions and keep the
regiment at war strength.
Under the army law the States can
exercise CONSUMPTION to keep the re-
serve battslions full, II this is neces-
sary.
In the last political campaign there
was some OlSCuSSlOIA VI NhN -
a conscription provision was put into
the army law. Socialist speakers de-
nounced it. But otherwise little has
been heard of it.
, Senator Chamberlain, chairman OF
the Military Committee of the Senate
referred to the draft provision today.
| saying there had been some discus
sion of IL in his State. As Senator
Chamberlain had a large hand In the
army law, there has been some crit
4 icism of him. The provision has been
denounced as a joker by some OF Its
critics. Senator Chamberlain holds
/ there was no joker about 1T, and that
! Congress knew what it was enacting.
The reserve battalion system is not
a new thing in this country. Wiscon
sin had It in the civil war, and Sena
| tor Chamberlain said today IL worked
we'll and kept regiments in the feld
at war strength. y

TO MAKE LUNATICS
WORK IN GERMANY
All But Violent Could Be En-
pIoyed In War, Says
Thomalla.

Writing in Die Zukunft of February
10. DIR. Karl Tho<aalla, OF Breslau,
makes a strong plea for the enroll
ment of all the able-bodied inmates
of German lunatic asylums In the
ranks of the "home army" created by
the auxiliary service law, enacted last
December, except those unfortunates
who have to be constantly kept under
restraint. DIR. Thomalla points out
how much labor power is being vast
cd through the failure usefully to en-
pIoy the thousands OF persons in Ger
man asylusm who, while not really
dangerous maniacs, must be controll-
ed because of fear of the recurrence
of "brainstorms" and similar out
bursts. and then outlines his plan as
follows:
Let us establish a new institution
in an Industrial town. The institution
must be located near factory in
which skilled and unskilled workers
may find employment and with which
an agreement regarding the use OF
the inmates is to be made. A Govern
ment munition or arms factory would
be the best The men will be uni
formed. They will live, eat, and sleep
in the institution, from which they
are to march In solid ranks back and
forth to work every day. The estab-
lishment is to be regulated on the or.
der OF a barracks, with a sentry at
the door and military discipline, rem
dered less severe by having asylum
nurses as the attendants in authority
'The management is to rest exclu-
sively in the hands of physicians. The
doctor is to superintend not only life
in the institution, but also during
working hours i'm the factory exer-
cising his influence upon the civilian
authorities. bosses, foremen, and the
normal workers in the plant. In the
institution there are to be canteens,
reading rooms. etc: there are to be
lectures and entertainments, and fur
Tough are to be granted to groups. and
even to individuals, in case they are
greatly improved. The inmates will
not be subject to military punishment.
l'as offenses will be regarded as indi.
eating a return of their ailment. So
there Is to be a hospital department
equipped like closed insane asylum
from which those who recover again
will be allowed to return to work
while those who are incurable will bc
sent back to the asylums.
