Roswell N. NJ. Dec 14--Although
ordinarily cadets at the New Mexico
Military institute have but little time
for social functions, they are antici-
pating very enjoyable time of it
during the Christmas ball. which will
be given this year on the evening of
December 90. The ball will be the
beginning of the holiday vacation at
at the institute. Glasses will be sus-
pended from December 20 to Decem-
holidays at their homes, but it is eX-
pected that at least 200 will remain in
barracks For the boys who remain
there will be plenty of entertainment.
All day hikes, athletic contests and
holiday events are being planned.
The students army training corps
unit, organized at the institute at the
request of the war department is now
being mustered out. 1t is probable
that all the army students will be
mustered out by December 20, in or
der that they may be home for the
holidays. It is almost certain that in
no other institution in America has
the sudden mastering out of the S. A..

Always operating on what may be
termed war basis. the institute took

The institute will not suffer in the

1t is believed that many of these will
desire to return to school and resume
their studies with graduation as their

Berlin, Dec. Ia (by the Associated
Press) The resignation of Dr. Solf
the foreign minister, which has not
yet been accepted. places the majority
socialist members of the German gov
eminent in a dilemma.
Virtually all the trained officials of
the foreign office. it is learned, have
served notice that they will leave If
DR.. Solf goes, Premier Ebert and
Herr Scheidemann are said to be fully
aware that it is impossible to replace
these officials at this time, and that
their designations would disorganze
the foreign work of the government.
Herr Haase and Barth, two Of the
minority socialist members of the
cabinet, however, insist that Dr..
Solf shall go, irrespective of con-
sequences Their opinion is said to
reflect the attitude of the Independent
socialists and the Spartacus group. An
official who is closely informed as to
the internal situation in the cabinet,
said today to the correspondent
Ebert and Scheidemann do not
mean to be ignorant to the wants of
the majority of the people behind
them, but the socialists always have
opposed government by force and
they cling to this doctrine. They have
refused to employ force as being in
consistent with socialist theories.
Hence. they are powerless and, | am
afraid, they will remain powerless.

republican, at a committee hearing
on an amendment proposed by him to
correct It, Soon after the war started
the bureau, Mr., Treadway said, made
many allowances which it found later
were not fully justified. In such cases
dependents were asked to return the
money and when this was not done
the amount was taken from the SOL
dier's pay.
This has worked great hardship
upon thousands of families" Mr..
Treadway said when they received
the money they understood they were
entitled to 1t and did not hesitate
about spending it, Now when the
government asks it back, they are not
able to pay it, | received a letter to-
day from a mother whose son is in a

she could do it, she said would be by
