Fargo, N. D., July DIR. E. II.
Ladd, president of the North Dakota
Agricultural college, in a signed state
ment given to the Forum this morn
ing, makes positive statement to
the effect that Lewis F.! Crawford,
president of the board of regents, de-
manded his, Dr. Ladd's resignation at
the May meeting of the board in Far
20; that Frank White of Valley City
admitted having made inquiries aim
ed at getting a new man for the pres1-
dency of the Agricultural college;
that Charles Brewer, secretary OF the
board of regents, made a personal
application for the position of food
commissioner, and that a third par
ty'' interceded with DR.. Ladd in be-
half of Mr.. Brewer, asserting that
his appointment would Smooth over
other matters.
Expressing sincere regret at the
turn of affairs, and declaring that for
seven years the college has been
made the football of politics, exempt
ing no faction or party from guilt, DR..
Ladd's statement admittedly creates
new crisis in college affairs that
will have an important effect upon
the institutions immediate future.

PARIS CROWD
Independence Day Gives French
Opportunity to Show Grat-

FANI0NS AND FLAGS
GIVEN TO AMERICANS

Paris (Delayed), July 4.-When
the 23Oth regiment Of French terri
torials, with it's band, escorted the
battalions picked from the regiments
or United States infantry into the
court of honor as part of the lnde-
pendence Day celebration, the court
sounded with the prolonged acclama-
ton of the massed spectators, who
left Just enough room for the troops
to form hollow square.
In the center were descendants OF
the soldiers of the American Revolu-
ton, with 2fanions in United States
colors and the colors of a major gen
eral of the United States army-a
flag of red ground with two silver
stars-embroidered by French wom-
en-, and American veterans who
fought with the French in the war Of,
1870, with the flag 3of the American

lean band struck up the march. The
simultaneous appearance of Poincare,
General - Pershing, General JOffre,
American Ambassador Sharp, and
other dignitaries, was the signal for
tremendous cheering.
Present Flags.
Hats off again and impressive ST.
lence prevailed when the fanions and
flag were presented to the American
troops. General Pershing was grave
and apparently moved.
Thousands of French soldiers on
leave from the front were among the
spectators. Hundreds of people left
the wide walk and went to- shake
hands with the American troopers.
Hundreds of French soldiers in stain.
ed trench uniforms joined the march
ing troops. Everywhere along the
route sounded the acclaims of the
French people, calling out affection
ately: "Sammies'' and "Teddies"
French military men commented on
the snappy marching gait and the
soldierly air of the American soldiers.
Ambassador Sharp, Minister Whit
lock, NJ. Painleve, and Colonel Stan
ton and General Pershing made ad
dresses. r.
The battalion of American troops
which paraded in Paris yesterday has
gone to the permanent training camp.
The other units of the expeditionary
force, which are now at French
port, will leave shortly for camp in
struction
1t is expected the entire expedition
will be encamped by July Is.
For the first time in it's history this
seaport celebrated Fourth of July.
The majority of the inhabitants
scarcely realized what they celebrat-
ed, but they were told that Fourth Of
July corresponded to their Fourteenth
of July, the greatest of all French
patriotic holidays, and they did their
utmost to give the town festive air.
Such American soldiers and sailors
as were allowed about, numbering in
to the thousands, were welcomed ev
erywhere. Countless families gave
dinner parties to the soldiers. The
day was passed with relaxation from
drills. Baseball games were played
and other athletic sports were in
dulged in.

CHINA STAMPS OAISERISM IN ASIA
OF KUT NEST
(By Charles Hodges, Expert on ORR
entail Affairs.)

entail Affairs.)
Germany has played her last card
in the Far East-and lost.
China's declaration of war upon
Germany came as a climax to the
failure Of the Manchu counter-revolu-
ton to destroy the Chinese republic.
This act ends the Teutonic schemes
to throw China into commissions.
Until China ended intercourse with
Germany-mainly because Of the
stand taken by the United States on
diver warfare-German ~welt-politik
used China as a safe ground to plot
trouble for the allies from one end
of Asia to the other.
Even when the German legation at
Picking was closed, the hand of the
Teutons worked through their Austro-
Hungarian ally. They tried to put
war-using 1t to help feed the trouble
between the north and south.
Chang-hsun's attempt to restore
the boy emperor of the Manchus
bears the marks Of German support.
The corroboration of guilt comes
from the fact that part Of the fallen
dictator's munitions had the stamp of
Germany's Observation-Disclosures.
The immediate effects Of China's
entrance into the war are small.
Because of China's internal condi-
ton, h is of little military power
and the trouble between the north
and the south promises to keep the
republic weakened. But the d%eclara-
ton Of war makes it easier for the
allies to draw upon China for sup
plies and labor. Furthermore, Ger
many will be rooted out Of h east in
consequence.
China's great gains at present come
from the ending Of the turmoil
growing out of German schemes to
use China in the great war. =,
