board and placed In Class 4. Az Of
these cases 60 before the district board
automatically.
Already nearly 100 appeals Of men
who were married since May II have
been forwarded to the district board
It appears to be the intention Of the
district board to inquire carefully Into
these cases to ascertain whether or not
marriage was contracted for the pur-
pose Of avoiding the draft. 1t Is the
opinion In some quarters that many OF
these men will be placed in Class l.
especially in those cases where 1t is
shown that the wife Is capable OF sup
porting herself, or in those cases where
her parents are able to support her.
Married men, claiming dependent
wives. but without children, have been
classified by the local board in Class
4. 1t Is the evident intent Of the d!s-
trict board to review these cases for
the purpose Of ascertaining those cases
where the wife is, or would be able 10
support herself If given the aid OF the
allotment Of pay Of her husband and
Of the government allowance for wives
Of soldiers"
Single men claiming dependent par
ents have been placed in Glass by
the local board. 1t is said that many
Of these claims are without merit and
were made to obtain a low clasSitica"
ton. 1t is evident the district boaTl
intends TO review these cases and re-
classify into higher classes those where
1t is quite evident that the parents arc
not solely or mainly dependent upon
their son for support.
1t Is expected that It will require
several weeks before all these cases can
be prepared and forwarded to the dis
trict board and much longer time be-
fore the district board reviews ana
passes on them.

Heart Of PAM German Conspiracy
Of World Conquest
Whole Scheme Of Prussian Dominion Based Upon Absolute
Control Of Middle Europe From Hamburg to Bagdad
BY HARRY PRATT JUDSON. President Of University Of Chicago

The pan.German plot to dominate
the world has been worked out with
characteristic German thoroughncss.
There Is no land on the globe in which
the web of intrigue has not been WOW
On. Every country has It's place In the
scheme ana is expected to fall into It's
place at the proper time and In the
proper way. Bribery AT one point, flat
terry ut another, the dcXtcrous use Of
innocent ~viSlonuries, the careful en-
enlargement of disscnSlons every
where, the Industrious dissemination Of
falSchoods tending to embroil nations
with one another, class with class, and
all to weaken and dcmorulize any pco-
pies who might by union become
strong-this sort of thing for years has
been going on In the hands OF German
agents everywhere.
The progress of the world implies
the growth OF good will and mutual
helpfulness wherever men make their
homes. Pan-German intrigue foments

dlstrust and III will /; seeks out all the
d%iscordant elements OF life with tire
less m~alevolence. German agents are
found stirring up anti British senti-
ment In India and South Africa and
Ireland; anti-Amerlcan sentiment in
Mexico and Colombia, in Argentina and
Chile; anlmoslty against the whites
among southern negroes; dislike Of
Japan In America and dislike Of Amer

man military power finds German in.
trlguc and trcachcry It's handmade.
Hamburg to Basdad.
But the basis Of the whole scheme OF
Prusslan world dominion Is absolute
German control from Hamburg to Bag
dad. This implies n fortress In the
center of Europe, from which light
ming blows can be struck In all direc-
lions. 1t implies an intrcnchcd posi-
ton oil the North sea, on the Baltic,
on the Adrlatic. on the Aegean. on the

nation Of Asia and Africa. IL means
as Napoleon said, Constantinople, the
empire of the world. There might be
the simulacrum OF an alliance with
Turkey and Bulgaria, Serbia, and
Greece. But, throughout all, Germany
would everywhere absolutely control,
for German political power and for the
development Of German capital and
German industry. For all practical
purposes II would be u German empire
from the Baltic to the Persian gulf.
But In order to carry out this vast
scheme, grandiose as II may appear,
but quite real and definite, ms II Is in
point of fact, the first condition, with
out which all would fall to pieces like
q house Of cards, Is To secure complete
control by Germany over the dual mon.
archy, Austria-Hungary. The alliance
at present and for so many years In
force must be exchanged for n much
closer relation, one which, whatever It's
form, will mean that Germany has the

words Prussia, which will really gov
