The Americans have resumed their bitter struggle forward through the woods and across the ravines of the Meuse-Argonne sector. On some days they gain as much as three hundred yards. Occasionally they take farm or a small wood or a redoubt.
 Then they pause to withstand two or three counter attacks. Then on again. Machine guns bark at them across every yard of the twelve mile front and every day they put from three to thirty of these hornets out of commission killing the gunners and pressing on. The roads are rough and wet and muddy, the skies are gray, the rain drops seep from the clouds, death, poison gas and dissolution are everywhere about them, but they press on and on, these farm CT and factory boys and clerks and students and workers and merchants from the U. s. A. No glory or panoply of war on this particular front no brilliant dash or thrill ing gains. Just plugging in the mud and crawling up or across ditches under heavy machine gun fire or lying in the woods

Prince Max affirms that Germany will never submit to a violent peace. Why not? That Is the kind of peace she has inflicted upon all the small nations and all the cities she has conquered since this war began. And that was the kind of peace she had hoped to impose upon England and France at once and upon America later. What does Prince Max mean, "violent?' Six million bayonets are advancing upon the German borders They will continue to advance until Germany surrenders, un- conditionally. If that be violence, then let Germany make the best of it. for that is the allied war program to the end. And the longer a peace of unconditional surrender is put off the more violence Prince Max and Germany are sure to witness at close hand

MONEY THE MAIN FACTOR

Threat Of Repressive Measures in
Form Of Higher Rates Has
Marked Effect.

NEW YORK. August 31.-Money

even the stirring war news being
wholly subordinated to that issue.
Previous warnings against specula-
tive use of bank loans were supple
mented by the statement Of the head
Of the local money pool, which threat
ened repressive measures in the form
of higher rates. "
A few market leaders improved
upon the previous weeks high rec
ords for the year. notably United
States Steel and other industrials. also
Canadian Pacific and several other
high grade rails.
The vast improvement in the for
eign situation was expressed in the
strength of exchange on virtually all
the countries of the entente powers
remittances to Paris mounting to
highest quotations since the middle
of 1915.
It was accepted as more than ordi-
narily significant also that exchange
on the neutral countries meanwhile
worked steadily in favor Of this CEN
ter. the movement being associated
with recent political developments in
northern Europe and Spain.
The advent of September is expect
ed to bring the impending liberty
loan to the forefront. Outstanding is
sues were heavy on large transac-
tions. the 3hs relinquishing much OF
their recent advance.

BUREAU OF STANDARDS
HOUSING PLANS PLACED
Dom & Deming to Submit Draw
ings for Needed Dor
mitories.

The United States Housing Corpora
tion today selected the arm Of Dom
& Deming. architects at s03 nth
street. to'draw plans for the erection
of housing accommodations for en-
ployes of the bureau of standards.
The housing bureau Is not ready to
announce details of the project, but
it is probable that dormitcry struc-
ture similar to the buildings being
erected on the. Union station plaza
will be put within a short distance
of the bureau of standards, which is
situated at Connecticut avenue and
Pierce Mill road.
The testing and perfecting of nu-
merous war devices has resulted in a
continuous growth Of this bureau for
q year. Because the bureau is situ-
ated in the heart Of section devoted
almost entirely to private homes, new
employees have found difficulty in
finding living accommodations.
1t is probable that the housing bu-
reau's project will provide for several
hundred persons.

STATUS OF s0LDIER-P0LICE.
Furloughed From Strictly Military
Duty, Secretary Baker Says.

Secretary Baker, discussing today
the status of soldiers on duty with
the police force in Washington, said
these men are on furlough from their
strictly military duties, cooperating
as military police with the civil au-

he is trying to avoid as far as possi-
BILE use Of soldiers for civilian duties,
to prevent complicating the labor sit

ice men-that is, men not physically
capable for combat duty.

PLAN TO EDUCATE

NATURE OF INSTRUCTION
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Copyright, 1918. by the New York Evening
Post Company.)
So widespread is the desire for In
formation and data concerning the
training of boys of eighteen under the
new educational plans of the War De-
partment that conferences between
the heads of colleges and officers Of
the War Department are now in prog
ress to elucidate and explain the stu
dent army program.
Perhaps the most comprehensive
statement of the scheme is made by
Col. Robert 1. Rees of the general
staff of the United States Army. who
is chairman of the War Departments
committee on education and special

Nature Of instruction.

Tn view of the comparatively short
time" continues Col Rees, during
which most of the student soldiers
will remain in college and the ex-
acting military duties awaiting them,
academic instruction must neces-
sarily be modified along lines of
direct military value. The War De-
partment will prescribe or suggest
such notifications. The schedule of
purely military instruction will not
preclude effective academic work.
It will vary to some extent in accord
ance with the type of academic in
struction, e. g., will be less in a med
ical school than in a college Of liberal
arts.
The primary purposes Of the Stu
dents Army Training Corps is to
utilize the executive and teaching per-
sonnel and the physical equipment of
the colleges to assist in the training Of
responsibilities on the colleges and at
the same time creates an exceptional
opportunity for service. The colleges
are asked to devote the whole energy
and educational power of the institu-
tion to the phases and lines of train
ing desired by the government. The
problem is new one and calls for in
ventiveness and adaptability, as well
as that spirit Of cooperation which
ly shown.
'The plan contemplates the making
Of contracts with all institutions hav-
ing units of the Students Army
Training Corps for the housing, sub
sistence and instruction of the stu
dent soldiers. to take effect on or
about October 1, 1918"

terious assault last Thursday night.
it was announced today. He was
stabbed over the heart as he was
about to enter his home, but influen-
tial friends succeeded in keeping the
story quiet until his death at mid
night last night. Before his, death,
the police say. Mr.. Broadway men
toned the name Of a travelling sales
man as his assailant, but lost con-
seriousness before telling of a motive
for the assault.
Mr.. Bradway was the divorced hus-
band of Charlotte Mae Smith, daugh-
ter of J. w. Smith, discoverer of
Goldfield in 1908.

How Plan Will Work Out.

1.-THE new military program as out
lined by the Secretary Of War calls
for the increase of the Army by more
than 100000 men by July /. 1919.
This probably will necessitate the
mobilization of all physically fit reg
istrants under twenty-ore within ten
months from this date. With respect
to students, since they are not to be
made in any sense a deferred or Ia
vored class, this means that they will
practically be assigned to active serv-
ice in the field by June. 1919.
THE only exceptions will be certain
students engaged in-technical studies
of military value, e.g., medicine, en-
cheering and chemistry. Under these
conditions 1t is obvious that schools
and colleges for young men within the
age limits of the new law cannot con-
tinue to operate as under peace con-
ditions- Fundamental changes must
be made in college and school prac-
tioes in order to adapt them to effec-
tive service in this emergency"
AS yet the plan cannot be called a
complete system of universal military
training. 1t is a wartime measure de-
signed to get officers out of the eight
een-year-olds of today by taking the
whole age group and selecting care
fully through the educational insti-
tutions those whom 1t Is best to train
especially for commissions.

Contracts Already. Made.

Letters went out on Wednesday
last to all the colleges. giving the
contract basis of the new relations
between the colleges and the govern
ment, and urged prompt compliance.
SO that every institution could be on
a contract basis with the War De-
partment by October 1 at the latest.
Debate in the Senate would seem to
indicate that some senators have mis-
understood the purpose of the plan.
They seem to have gotten the idea
that all the boys of eighteen would
constitute class deferred Indefinitely
Neither the boys nor the War Depart
mont would want any such status
and, as pointed out in q previous
article, Gen. March expects to use
these new registrants to make up his
