Diet Believes Measure Unnecessary But Wishes to Avoid Internal
 Political Conflict.

Copenhagen Oct, 6.-The last ob- stacle to the reform of Prussia's an tiquated three class franchise has been removed by the adoption unani- mously of the following resolution by the conservative faction in the Prus- sian Diet:
 Tn the hour of the father1and's greatest distress and in realization that we must be equipped to fight hard battles for the integrity of the fathcrlands soil, the conservative party of the Diet considers it a pa 'triotic duty to lay aside all internal conflict and be ready to make heavy sacrifices to attain the ends in view. The members of the party believe that d far-reaching radicalization of the Prussian constitution will not ad- vance the welfare of the PruSSlan people, but are nevertheless prepared to abandon their opposition to the equal franchise in Prussia. in accord- ance with the latest decision of their friends in the House of Lords, in or der to assure harmonious front against the outside world

Committee, Y. M. c. A. The work of the county committee is new to this county the organization having been effected at a County Convention held in Hartford June with representa- tives from all the towns of the coun- ty present.
 The field of the County Y. M. C. A. is the smaller towns and villages and rural communities of the county that they may have the benefit of the As SOciatiOn program in the development of their boyhood and young manhood. The Association works in these com munitles on a strictly equipment basis, that is 1t does not have build ing Of it's own but attempts to work through the equipment of the church es and other institutions already in the communities. While the associa- ton has a definite program of work that program is in reality a commun- ity, inter- r-denominational program of moral and religious education for the boyhood of each community. Instead of attempting to draw the boys away from the organizations already at work the county committee lays as a cardinal principle cooperation and working through the already existing
 
 ation with the Boy Scouts, the Farm Bureaus in their club work, the Old CT Boys Working Reserve. The State Council of Defense, the War Work Council, Village and rural schools, the community programs of the vari- ous villages. the homes, State and County Sunday school Associations, etc.
 There will be a controlling princi- pie running through the whole work, that each item in the program may contribute something to the develop ment of the boys into a high type of manhood. The work will be a real educational asset to the county, as it will supplement in a unique way the forces of education already playing upon the boy life.
 Already some definite details of the program are taking form. It is planned to organize in the communi- ties that have already requested the work, groups of boys into distinct groups or clubs with a well defined, all-around program under adequate adult leadership. The program will cover physical development and will lay especial stress on a1l-around physical efficiency there will be edu- cational features, addresses, trips, discussions, etc.; there will be detin- ite provision for the development of the deeper sides of a boys life with discussion groups covering moral and religious problems etc. His social nature will be developed so that he can meet men when he has matured in a. free way. Much stress will be laid in the groups upon personal and community service, The whole pro- gram will be vitalized in the provi- sions for training the leaders that will be established by MT. Thienes.

Herald Reader Asks Consideration
 For "Courant'' Editorial Writer. To the Editor of The Herald:
 In your issue of last night you, at considerable length, criticise the Hartford Courant or as you style it, the ''old lady of State street,, for it's editorial comment on President Will sons reply to Germany. You even go so far as to hint at senility, and you speak openly of old age-all be- Ing directed at the Courant. | wish in my feeble way to protest and to say that l am forced to the conclu- SlOn that the stern realities of war have caused you to so steel yourself that you are losing your patience and are hitting heads without paus- Ing to use the calm discernment which in more peaceful times l am sure you would use. Even though the Courant on it's front page yester- day and today lauds the presidents reply, even though the Courant's front page today shows that the greatest minds of Europe applaud the presidents masterly reply, the Cour- ant again-alone among all papers, further criticizes his verbiage. This being true-don't you think, MT. Edi-
 
 concede that the business conditions which confront all enterprises, old as well as young, exist in the plant of the Hartford Courant, and that it, like all others is exceedingly short of help? And having gone thus far wouldn't it be only fair to go a step further and admit that in such stress the Courant has been com pelled to draft some grammar school boy to write it's editorials? Does not the editorial page indicate that this is ahe true situaton? And under these conditions may I ask you to extend your charity and your sympathy to the Courant? 1 am certain that am correct in my diagnosis of the Courants ailment-juse as certain as I am that the Courant's editorial crit is would require an aeropIane to ele- Nate him sufficiently to permit him to peep into Woodrow Wilson's mind.
 The "old lady, of State street, is fast becoming a termagant, peevish, ault-fnding, fussy can't see with or without glasses, and is rapidly ap- preaching second childhood.

OFFICERS RE-ASSIGNMENTS
War Department Placing Men in Berths For Which Nature and In- teIligence Best Fit Them

Washington, D. C., Oct. 16-The War Department is conducting a viz orous campaign looking to the wedding out of incompetent officers.
 It has been found as a result of the investigation that many officers probably have been misplaced and can do we'll in branches other than those in which they are serving. A With a view to retaining officers who may have qualifications for val uable service in other branches, in- dividual cards and other evidence is being carefully studied.
 For example an effort is being made to discover in every instance under Investigation the qualifications underlying his greatest success in civilian life. It is announced also that cognizance will be taken of the officers physical qualities, his in teI1igence rating and all civil and mill itary experience.
 Tn this way it is believed, injustice will not often occur in disposing of the case of officers under investiga- ton. Whenever the average of a rat ing or revised rating of an officer falls below 45 points it will be re- view by the Personnel Board
 When the ratlng IS Nerlned as Iall- ing below the required point of eff ciency the commanding officer in each instance will recommend to the Adjutant General that the officer in question be placed upon probation until the next rating, transferred to another branch of the service or dis charged outright. Where a man is placed on probation and still cannot make a rating of 45 or higher he will be discharged.
 Efficiency is becoming the rule all along the line so far as officers are concerned, regardless of their rank. In the American expeditionary force Gen. Pershing has always made it an absolute rule and men who deliver the goods are assured of recognition and promotion as opportunity occurs.

 German ETnniPc


 New York, Oct. 16.-Simeon D. Fess, chairman of the Republican, Congressional Campaign Committee, who was one of those to criticise President Wilson's answer to the German communication of Oct s, yesterday approved the note made public the night before. Asked for his opinion. he said:
 Splendid. The demand for the elimination of arbitrary power in ir- responsible officials will test the sim cerity of the German government and people.
 'If the. German government is sin cere in it's desire for peace this last communication of the president opens the way to demonstrate it. We still have the problem of the future to work out since the president does not touch upon the question of restora- tion and reparation. He leaves the discussion open to the fourteen arr ticls and subsequent addresses, which, to say the least, are vague and am- biguous. These involve matters which must be open to the American people for decision"

OVERSUBSCRIBED.

It was foregone conclusion that New Britain would do it's share in the Fourth Liberty Loan, hence there is no great surprise expressed in the city at the announcement by the loan committee that our quota of $3,71S,- 900 has been oversubscribed. Never theless, we should not lose sight of che fact that this is an accom- pllsh- ment worthy of more than passing note Heretofore, this city had been called upon to raise two millions of dollars and yet, without any apparent exertion, ii has this time pledged an amount half as large again as that sum. There is every indication that before the loan campaign is con- cluded. New Britain's total will be nearer to four millions than to three. The residents of the city have given renewed assurance of their firm de- termination to support the Govern 1nent until victory has been won
