GERMAN TRADE
REORGANIZI

BERLIN. Sept. 15.--(Correspond'
ence of the Associated Press) The
much discussed reformation of the
foreign Office has begun with the
creation of a foreign trade bureau
that is a decided innovation and a
radical alteration of the old-time
methods of doing business, -
The whole basis of the foreign
trade bureau is that Germany must
on the one hand have a very exact
and accurate news report of every
thing concerning foreign trade, from
official and private reporters. Such
information must flow directly into
the Office of man trained and fitted
to understand precisely the impor-
tance of given piece of news. Men
will be trained to study given coun-
tries. News from such countries will
go directly to the experts of each.
The bureau is headed by an ad-
ministration board of council of 25
to 80 members, all of them experts
in various business lines, and half
a dozen imperial officials. likewise !
experts. will belong TO the council. |
No one, not even the foreign office. |
will have veto right over the de-
cisions of the council.
For the benefit of German bust
ness, reports from abroad will be
published weekly or bi-weely in the
publication, News of
Trade, Industry and Agriculture. In
reports of especial value
will be published in pamphlet form
and distributed.

Broadway Startled by
Columbia Glass Rush
Wild Scene in Columbus Circle
as Freshmen EnIiyen Sopho-
more Dinner

AT $3.50 O'Clock last night things were
much the same as usual in and about
Columbus Circle. One minute later
even the most blase of New Workers
would have been startled by what he
saw.
Where minute before everything
was orderly, two groups OF shouting,
maulin, fighting young men struggling
back and forth across the Circle. In a
twlnklng thousands of passersby it
seemed. jammed in to enjoy the melee.
Broadway trolley cars stopped. Po-
lice reserves came rushing from the
West Forty y-seventh and West Sixty
eighth Street police stations.
While fists. occasionally police
club, many hats and an interminablo
end of language flashed back and forth
among the lighters, speculation ran riot
among the SPECTATORS Nothing less
exciting than an attack by Bolsheviki
was 0iiered as possible explanation
until it finally filtered through the
minds of the crowd that q goodly por-
ton of New York had unconsciously
been drawn into nothing more than a
good, old fashioned college boy rush
Last night had been chosen by Co.
iumbia sophomores as the date for
their annual class dinner. They had
persuaded the management of Rcisen-
weber's to rent them IL room.
In some way, known best to a fire sh-
mans mind, the youngsters at the uni
versity had learned both the time and
the place of the banquet, and, being
true to the best traditions of all fresh
men, they had set out to break it up.
At the conclusion of what is certain
to go down in history at Columbia as
the Battle of the Circle honors rested
fairly easy. The dinner was given with
the four officers of the freshman class
as captives.
On the other hand, exactly seventeen
places were vacant, that number Of
luckless youngsters having fallen into
the clutches of the freshmen and been
spirited off into Central Park.
