troops into Siberia. There is NO

ways, some authorities holding that
she will enter Siberia, -inasmuch as
the Allies are agreeable. while others
believed the American lack OF assent
plus objections at home in influential
quarters would halt the Intervention

II is fully realized here that japan

DECIDES TO FIGHT AGAIN
Young Russian With War Medals and
Certificates Of Bravery Tries for
Aviation Corps.

San Francisco.-Carrying war med
ais and certificates of bravery from
the Russian army, Paul nj. Iogolevtch,
sixteen years old, walked boldly into a
recruiting station and applied for en-
hstment In the aviation corps.
"But you're too young" objected the
recruiting officer. 'We'll have to de-
cline your offer with thanks"
Whereupon young Iogolevich pro-
duced a st. George medal, the highest
honor which Russian soldier can win.
He showed citations for bravery In va
rious battles, notably in the Russian
retreat at the Debussy river, when he
remained after the rear guard had
gone, spiking batteries and recovering
valuable military maps and papers.
Incidentally" he said, 'Tm the son
of Brigadier General Iogolevich, and
I'm going to fight some more, whether
you think I'm to young or not. I've
seen three years of service and I've
still got plenty of scrap I'm me-"
The recruiting officer decided to put
the case up to Washington.

New Haven, Conn.-Yale university
has taken a long step toward making

course will be given a chance to take

Men taking this course are enrolled
as members of the reserve officers
training corps. There are now over
700 of them in college, and Ii is their
demand for intensified instruction that
led the authorities to take the new
step. 1t will still be possible for men
to take some of the old courses, but
every department of the university will
throw Its main strength into war train
ing.
"The underlying idea of the action
was this" President Arthur L. Hadley
said: "Any course of study, TO be eff
fective, must have motive. In times
of war the interest of everybody CEN
ters on military activities. The one
way to keep cur classroom work alive
during these years is to connect stud
les with the work in which the nation

Washington, ID. c., March s.
Based upon the three line method of
trench warfare evolved in France, the
war department, it was learned today
has approved a plan of organization
which fixes six divisions as the
strength of an army corps.
Three or more corps will constitute
a field army and the immediate pur-
pose of the department is to COM
plete the organization of the first
field army in France in the shortest
possible time to give Gen. John j..
Pershing the strength to hold fully
"Americanized" sector of the front.
The plan leaves to Gen. Pershing the
determination of the number of corps
and the number of field armies need
ed and also authorizes him to recon-
mend commanders.
By the six division army corps plan
each corps will occupy front sector
with two divisions, while two replace
ment or reinforcement lines of two
divisions each will back them up.
Replacement troops sent from the
United States are fed into the war
machine in France at the third line.
They move forward in regular order
as their training progresses and ar
rive at front line trenches to fill in
casualty gaps only when they have
been thoroughly seasoned. =.

ice battalions for work on the COM

A similar organization of about 130,-
900 men is necessary for each field

Wichita, Kan.-Some weeks ago the
Kansas supreme court ruled that cer-
tain cities did not have to collect q
poll tax. Wichita Is one Of them.
Then the Salvation Army officers
here conceived bright idea.
"Why not ask the men for their
poll tax, and use the money In fur.
thering the war work overseas of the

Now accredited solicitors Of the
Salvation Army are collecting the poll

able that in future years newspaper that
in regular publication before the war
and survived this ordeal will have badge
of soldity"
"The Philadelphia Public Ledger"
adds to this statement that "newspapers
are as a general rule less identified with
individuals now than in the days of
Greeley, Dana, Raymond, Grady, For
ney, Mcclure, Pulitzer, Bennett and
Bowles; though no change of conditions
can eliminate the personal element alto
gether"
In the case of "The Courier Journal
the change was from one set of owners
to an individual owner, with the famous
editor still held in an advisory position.
But the sale of '"The New York Evening
Post" drew attention to an arrangement
by which the owner deposited the direc-
tion of the paper IN the hands of trus-
tees, with careful regard for the inde-
pendence Of the editor, who continues in
charge. "The Charleston News and
Courier" remarks On this occasion that
ut will be interesting to see how this
curious plan will work out. The trus-
tees are men Of liberal views, and Mr..
Sedgwick, especially, has impressed us
as sound thinker who faces the front.
At the same time it is difficult to see how
the scheme which Mr.. Lamont has de-
vised can prove other than clumsy in
operation, and we are at loss to know
why any man should wish to own a
newspaper if he is not going to control
it's management The ideal situation in
the case of newspaper such as The
New York Evening Post would be very
different from that which is contem-
plated" The New York Tribune wrote
somewhat in the same tenor:
'We think it absurd that such conccs-
sions require to be made to the Wall Street
prejudice of people at large and to the

that he should not have retired. Both in
law and in sound public policy a natural
lied American is as good as any other
American. Many men of German
birth are sealing on the battlefield their
devotion to the great republic and the
democracy Of which it is the colossal
apostle. 1t is not good thing to have
even the most indirect recognition of the
principle that an American citizen Of Ger
man birth is per Sc not to be trusted Any
who clamor for discrimination may be zeal
Gus in their Americanism, but not broad
or intelligent.
$50 it is regrettable that in his answer
the President did not seize the occasion to
repudiate the idea that man of German
birth, even though proving his loyalty by
the most conspicuous merit, is not to be
trusted.n
Writing before it was known that the
President would decide to let Mr. War
burg go, "The Indianapolis News" OBJ
served:
"There is no man on the board who has
enjoyed the confidence of the country in
greater degree than Mr. Warburg
mere mas, as 1ar as we KNOW, Deon no
criticism of him or his work. His appoint
ment was highly praised when it was made
and the best opinion is that he has, by his
work on the board, justified all that was
said of him. The President should esteem
himself fortunate if he can retain the serv-
ices Of Mr.. Warburg."
'SThe Philadelphia Inquirer" recall
ing his original appointment to the
board, says: "Through the exceptional
abilities which he had displayed he had
achieved recognition as one of the fore
most Of authorities on all questions of
finance; and of his service on the board
it says that during the four years over
which his membership of the Federal
Reserve Board has extended he has done
such good and faithful work as amply
vindicated the Presidents Judgment in
his selection and fully realized the ex-
pectations of those who had always
known his worth.
The comment of "The Washington
Post" was put thus
"Mr Warburg's part in the establishment
of the new banking system under the direc-
tion of the Federal Reserve Board has been
an important one. His genius and his
energy have been devoted wholeheartedly
to his official duties and the Administration
is fully aware how valuable he has been.
Under ordinary circumstances there is no
doubt the Pres ident would have been con-
strained to retain him in Office and he
would have been glad to stav since there
is yet much work to be done"
