The Chicago branch of the service has
let it be known that the greatest diff

instructors for high schools, the greater
part of those teaching forces has
hitherto been composed of young men
Numbers of these instructors have been
called to the National army or have
enlisted. The many special services
which the government has been or

this class of teachers; and on senior
college students, from among whom
are usually recruited the annual add

Educational authorities have viewed
with some concern the growing inroads
on their profession which the war is
making. They have, in many instances
started organized efforts to fill the
gaps in their ranks and have empha.

GERMAN ESPIONAGE PLANS
DISCOVERED IN HANDBOOK
Advises How TO Bribe Officials of
Enemy Ships.

Christiania, Norway, Jan. 11.-(Corre
spondence Of the Associated Press).-I
An official handbook Of German esplo
mage. one of the most remarkable docu
ments of the war, was produced as evil
dence i'm the course of the great Bergen
spy case, which has just been ended
in the courts with the conviction Of
six of the defendants.
The handbook was found in the safe
OF Herr Paasche one Of the employees
of the so.caned German Information
Agency. Its title page bears the in
scription, Duties of the Espionage
Service" and it contains, in the words
of the court, "the objects and methods
of the German information agency in
Scandinavia"
The introduction says that important
information can be obtained through
the neutral or enemy ships which come
to Scandinavian ports, regarding such
points as minefields, minebelts, changes
in lightships, etc. "By such informa
ton" it explains, "our U-boats can BE-
shown not only safe routes, but also
objects of attack"
The following is q summary Of one
chapter:
Through shipping only can we get
TO know the enemy's guardships, where
his ships are stationed, knowledge of
his cruisers and other information. The
best source is a ship captain, but they
are difficult to obtain. The younger
mates are easier to get, as their wages
are not high. But if neither Of these
is available, the most likely person on
n ship should be approached. Monthly
payment of so to 500 kroner is avail.
able. Captains on English passenger
routes are usually paid 800 kroner
Mates on neutral tramp steamers be
tween England and France, 100 TO lbs
kroner"
rMuch information can be gained
from passengers also" says the hand
book. The Importance is shown OF
maintaining a good connection with rep
resentatives Of the neutral press
The hiring of commercial or other
nersons who travel in the enemy''
country is suggested. ~The best per
sons" says the handbook, "are com
mercial travellers who have been &C
customed to travel for some firm, an(
who carry on an actual and continuous
business. Just now also walters

and ammunition factories, and nurses

The greatest danger is said TO be il
