though they have enlisted for def
mite terms. Secretary Daniels stated
college men and young business men
who entered the war for patriotic
reasons and who desire to get back
into their peace-time work will be
given every opportunity to do SO as
soon as arrangements can be made.
/. He made it clear, however, that the
personnel of the navy will have to be
kept close to the present mark and
that recruiting for the merchant ma
rine must go at least until further
arrangements are made.
The navy has seventy thousand
men abroad. including marines,
Daniels said.
Work on battle ships and larger
war vessels which has been slack
ened because of urgent necessity for
patrol and destroyer craft, will be
resumed as part Of the permanent
expansion policy Of the navy.
The coastwise patrol will not be
demobilized at once, the secretary
said Plans will not be changed ex-
cept after careful deliberation in the

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Willfam
Hohenzollern, ex-supreme war lord,
is the first German to desert. The
day of the wars end finds him run
ming away from his army and nonchal-
antiy seeks asylum in the nearest
neutral country, with the blood OF
twenty-six million dead and wounded
men smattering his soul.
If ever guilt were personal, william
Hohenzollern is personally respon-
stble for the devastation that has
made Europe a shambles and so near
ly subjected modern civilization to
medieval reaction. His attitude to-
ward the world in general and as to
Germany in particular has been that
he owes no account.

WITH AMERICAN ARMIES, Nov.
11.--Shortiy before eleven o'clock,
the American gunners stood with
watch In hand, as the seconds licked
away. They fired right up. to the
last, saving the she'll cases of the
final rounds as souvenirs.
Several nineteen-inch naval guns
sent their final shells hurting far
into the German lines.
Little is known regarding events at
the extreme front lines, where the
men are dug in, in little "fox holes"
Just as unit commander started
to phone his forward lines that the
war was over, he was interrupted by
the announcement that another town
had been captured.
| sat In dugout northeast of Yer
dun when Marshal Foch's order ar
rived at 1O:4o. A captain began teie-
phonine feverishiy to all the batteries
in his sector. Immediately the fire
began to quicken until the fog was
pierced by veritabIe sheet Of flame,
the gun flashes melting into one.
As the captain finished reading the
order to each battery, faint cheers
came over the wire.
"What do the boys thing Of III" he
asked.
"They're crazy, plum crazy" WA
the response.
Owing to the difficulty of commune
cation, probably many Of the ad-
vanced units received the news after
10 o'clock although the officers work
ed like beavers to reach all detach-
ments.

DISAGREE OVER POLAND

London, Aug. 2l.-Vienna dis
patches deny that the conference be-
tween Emperor William and EN-
peror Charles resulted in an agree
ment between Austria and Germany
according to advices to the Daily
Mail from The Hague. 1t is said
that Germany appears to have
reached an agreement with the pro-
visional government of Poland over
the head of Austria. 1t is reported
that the Germans have rejected Aus
tria's plan for increasing the forces
on the western front, while Austria
rejected Professionally the German
solution of the Polish question. This
purpose does not mean. it is added.
that the plan to send a large Aus
trian force TO the western front has
been abandoned.

killed BY RED TAPE.

Washington Post: Owing to the
neglect of some one, 90 dogs, shipped
by express for experimentation pur-
poses to the gas and flame division
of the American University training
camp, were yesterday allowed to re-
main without water all day in crates
in a shed with a tin roof at the ex-
ress office at Second and / streets
northeast. Although the consignee
was Immediately notified, no atten-
tion was paid to the notice and the
dogs were allowed to remain there
all day without any relief until by 7
o'clock several of them had died and
the rest were in pitiable condition.
The attention of Postmaster NJ. o.
Chance was called to the dogs and
he phoned to Maj. Raymond Pull
man, who turned the matter over to
Inspector Evans who called up the
war department where he got in
touch with man by the name of
Armstrong at the American Uni
versity who said he would attend to
the dogs. Inspector Evans told him
that If the dogs had been consigned
to a private individual instead of
to the government that individual
would be arrested at once for
cruelty to animals.
When The Post called up Arm
strong he denied any knowledge of
the dogs. The police were again no
titled and once more Inspector
Evans called up Armstrong, who
then said that he couldn't get in
touch with the regular man who al
ways attended to moving dogs con-
signed to the gas and flame divi-
sion and there wasn't anything he
could do. The police are powerless
to do anything. as the dogs are con-
signed TO the United States govern
ment. The express company report
ed at late hour last night that they |
were still there. |

TO NAME SHIPS FOR
LIBERTY LOAN CITIES
TOWNS WITH EATE S 7
OVERSUBSCRIPTION TO
SHARE HONORS

Dallas, Texas, August 2l.-MrS
Woodrow Wilson has suggested that
twelve ships being built by the
Emergency Fleet Corporation be
named for cities or counties which
make notable records for oversub-
scription in the coming Liberty loan
campaign. There are twelve Federal
reserve districts in the United States
and this means one ship to be named
| for some political subdivision of each
of the twelve districts.
A letter setting forth this suggcs-
ton was received in Dallas from
Washington yesterday by J. w
Hopes, deputy governor OF the Dal-
las Federal Reserve Bank. The hon
or of naming the ship for this dis
trict is expected to excited spirited
competition. ii the last Liberty loan
had been the determining one, the
ship for this district would probably
have been named Orange, for the
town of Orange led all the rest. Sev-
eral Louisiana parishes also distin-
guished themselves in the matter of
oversubscription.
Advertising matter for the coming
loan drive is arrivig daily and plans
are under way. 1t is announced that
two Liberty loan trophy trains will
be operated again this fall. Larger
exhibits will be available for the
trophy trains this fall. John A. Lo-
max of Chicago, formerly with the
University of Texas Alumni Associ-
alton will come to Texas to assist as
he did in the last drive.
No announcement has yet been
received as to the quota for TexIS
for the fourth loan. Representations
are being made to Washington with
reference to drouth and genera.
conditions in Texas with a view to
scaling the Texas quota according ly.
Information is also being gathered
to guide ii apportioning the quotas
of Texas counties, some being more
prosperous than usual while others
are suffering severely from drouth.
