Prince Max
Resigns as
Chancellor
- -
German Wireless Dispatch
Announces End Of His
Brief Ministry

LONDON, Nov. S.--Prince Maxinlil-
ian Of Baden, the : Imperial German
Chancellor, has resigned, according to
a German wireless dispatch picked up
here tonight. fs
The wireless says that Prince Max
rendered his resignation in view Of the
altered parliamentary situation, but
that acceptance of it is still outstand
ing.
Prince Maximilian of Baden was
appointed Imperial German Chancellor
on October ( last, succeeding Won
Hertling. "Germany's Lansdowne," as
Prince Max has been called, is a
wealthy man who has been a so-called
pacitist. He has made many moderate
speeches and came from the liberal
stronghold of Germany, but his ac-
tions since his elevation to the Chan
cellorship have exhibited some rcac-
tionary tendencies.
Max's duplicity in handling national
policies came near unseating him sew
eral times in the month that he held
office. On October 13 and again on
October Ia his resignation was called
imminent in press dispatches, chiefly
because Of conflict between his re-
puted democratic" qualities and his
actual autocratic actions.
Soon after taking office letter he
had written some time before to Prince
Alexander of Hohenlohe was made pub
lc. In this Max admitted that, while
pretending to be democrat and lib
eral, he at heart favored reactionary
principles.
His sympathy with the ideals Of the
militarists was clearly expressed in his
speech to the Chamber Of Deputies of
Baden last December, in which he said :
"Not hatred of our foes, but rather
love Of Germany should be the soldiers
true motive in fighting. The sword
alone cannot overcome the opposition
Of our foes If the world is to be rec
onciled to the greatness of Germany IS
power, it must be made to understand
that behind. our power stands not
merely a national but world con-
science. True, the whole history Of
spiritual Germanys feelings shines
like beacon. This is the sign we
must inscribe on our standards. BY
this sign We shall conquer"

FRATERNAL MEN
WILL AID LOAN
Representatives of All South
Bend Lodges Meet
at c. of l..

Representative of all the South
Bend lodges met in the Chamber Of
Commerce last night at o'clock TO
Liberty loan campaign which starts
on April 8, the anniversary of Amer
ica's entrance into the war.
l.. w Hammond acted as chair
man of the meeting and offered sew
eral suggestions as 70 the best
manner of securing the interest cf
the members of these organizations.
He stated that many lodges had
funds in their treasures which were
lying idle, and if the subject Of in
vesting that surplus money in Lib
erty bonds were properly put before
the meetings il would result in a
substantial swelling Of the amount
of money which South Bend is eX-
pected to invest. For those socie-
ties who have no money in their
treasures il would be fitting if the
members were urged TO invest in
Liberty bonds on the installment
plan. and in cases of this kind those
in authority should see that every
member in their society is solicited.
not only because it is the essence
Of patriotism, but because il is a
sound investment, one that viii
yield Il per cent interest and S
free from all tax.
Stuart MacKibbin. a represent"~
tive Of the Masonic fraternity,
speaker of the evening, said: We
are in this war 10 the last dollar,
the last man and the last resource.
The least we people can do who
seay at home is 10 back the bows
over there with our money. I help
ed 1S6 men till out their question
naires. and l met with one fact
which amazed me. 1t was this: OF
all that number of men who were
between the ages OF 21 and 30,
there were about a half dozen who
were saving: the rest were spend
ing every cent they earned. This 5
a startling fact, one which shows
that young Americans are not
awake to the sacrifices which they
may be called upon TO make"
Frank Jeffries said that speak
ers. music or anything else that
would tend to aid this movement
would be furnished to the various
societies free. Any society desiring
these may call Arthur D. Baker at
the Indiana club, which is the Lib
erty loan headquarters, and speak
ers who are informed upon this Sub
ject will be assigned TO address
them.
Societies are also reouested to re-
port their progress to a member OF
