GERMANY DENIES
DRIVE ON RUSSIA

Weimsr, March 2S S--(By A. PD-Re-
plying in the National Assembly today
to q question regarding the message
sent to Budapest by NJ. Tchitcherin. the
Foreign Minister Of the Russian Soviet
government describing the position of
the Russian Soviet army. Gustave Noske.
The Minister OF Defense, said that the
Russian statement was untrue SO far as
ii referred to the German troops. The
Let's and the LithuanianS we're mainly
involved in the fighting in the Baltic
countries, Herr Noske declared. ard the
Germans had only occupied th, railway
line to safeguard the bringing up of
supplies. The German authorities, he
stated. had agreed that no offensive
should be undertaken in Courland or
the Ukraine by German forces.
.It IL certain that the safeguarding
of the eastern frontier will unfortunately
still be necessary" the Minister OF De-
tense added, but the government only
entertains a lively wish to live in peace
and good neighborliness with Russia"
In his wireless message to Budapest
NJ. Tchitcherin was quoted IN press dis
patches as asserting that Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg was carrying out an
advance on Kovno. which lies directly
east of East Prussia and Immediately
TO the south Of the Baltic province or
fsourland.

RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS
RESUMED NEXT FALL
Elections to Oxford, Post
poned During War to Be
Continued Again

Provost Smith announced today that
eIection Of Rhodes scholarship to Ok
ford postponed on account of the war.
will be resumed next october. Doctor
Smith expressed the hope that by fall
Rehabilitation will be so far completed
that intending candidates who have
taken military service will have an op-
portunity to compete.
Accumulation OF postponed scholar
ships raises at oxford certain difficult
ties owing to the inability of the col
Iege to receive more than a limited
number Of American scholars at any
one time.
1t is proposed to fill up in october
OF this year only the 1918 and 1919
postponed scholarships. The scholars
elected then for the year 1918 Will be
expected to come into residence, so far
as possible. in January. 1920: those
elected for the year 1919 will enter in
October. 1920.
In the same way the scholars for
1920 and 1921 will be elected in Octo-
ber. 1920. the former coming into res
idence. so far as possible. in January,
1921, the latter in October, 1921. After
1920 the elections will resume their
normal course.
II has been decided that candidates
in the United States, who are other
wise eligible, shall no longer be re-
ouired to pass a qualifying eNamina-
ton. but shall be selected with due
reference to the suggestions OF Mr..
Rhodes. on the basis of their univer-
sity or college standing, subject to any
further test which the committees Of
selection may in their discretion im-
pose.
Y AS a temporary war measure oxford
University has decided to exempt from
the responsions examination men who
have been on military service for six
months or more.
Next fall there will be an election in
each state. The Rhodes will provides
for two scholars constantly at oxford
from each state. Each scholar stays
three years and receives $500 year.
Candidates must be nominated between
the ages of nineteen and twenty-five,
and must have completed at least two
years in college.
Selection in the future will be made
merely on the mans college record
judged according TO his scholarship,
character. interest in outdoor sports
and instincts for leadership.

the United States surrendered a part OF
It's sovereignty by entering the league.
IL has now become evident. however,
that neither the United states nor any
other nation surrenders any sovereignty
ana tha the tleague Is not government
and has no sovereign powers.
Third. Objection has been made that
the United States abandons the Monroe
Doctrine In the doctrine the United
states proclaims that It will treat as an
unfriendly act any aggression by force
by any country of the old world against
any American country. How can that
doctrine be abandoned by joining a
league which proposes to put stop TO
aEgressions by force against every ma
ton including those in America!
Fourth. Objection has been made
that British self-governing colonies. like
Canada and Australia. may be admitted
to the league. which it is claimed would
give Great Britain five votes to our one.
II 1t were true 1t would not matter. be-
cause all important questions must be
decided by a unanimous vote. 1t may
also be said, however. that Canada and
Australia are almost completely inde-
pendent Of Great Britain and are grow
ing more 50 constantly. Canada espe-
clally has many interests in common
with the United States and gives us
more of her trade. New York Is her
financial headquarters more than Lon
don.
League Questions Oniy International
Fifth il has been objected that Japan
might insist on having the league settle
the immigration question. and through
the leaue force us TO admit japanese
immiration. If she could, she would
also force us to change our laws of
marriage and divorce, taxation or any
other purely domestic question. The
eague deals only with international
questions. II has no telation to domestic
questions like immigration. The absur-
dity of the suggestion is all the more ap-
parent when we reflect that not single
member of the executive council could
possibly sympathize with Japan even If
she asserted such a claim.
But enough with these objections.
They will be brushed aside. Men must
meet the big issue squarely. Yes or
no-shall We join in an effort to pre-
vent war or revert TO the old system
with its sacrifices and it's horrors"
There can be but one answer.
