SAY GERMAN
 ARRAY HISTORY
 IS PROPAGANDA

Washington, Aug. 30 - Senator Chamberlain of Oregon yesterday ap- pealed in the Senate to patriotic American newspaper publishers to refrain from presenting to their readers the history of the world war written by General von Ludendorff of the German army, which many news papers have announced they are about to publish serially.
 General Ludc 1dorff's book, Senator Chamberlain declared, is Teuton' propaganda, handled in the style Lu- dendorff made most effective in Eu- rope If American newspapers will not voluntarily withhold it Senator Chamberlain hinted that government action might be asked to prevent it's dissemination. He was joined by Senator Lodge in the expression of the hope that the German story of the war should be given no Circula- ton in this country.

$500 TEMP ORARY OFFICERS STAY
 IN THE ARMY
Congress Approves Plan Until 1920 and Votes
 Money.

Washington, Aug. 3O-The threat ened crisis in the army which would have been brought about through a shortage in officers. if provisions of tho Army Appropriation bill reducing the s;rerizth'of the army should re main In effect. is believed to have been averted through the action Of the House late yesterday in passing the Senate bill authorizing the re- tention of 1S,OOO officers on the ac- tive list of the army until 1920.
 There are $500 regular officers on inc active list, and tho bill will per init the retention at an extra cost of SIP, 2,50O,OOO of about $500 officers who were appointed for emergency duty only. Without such legislation all emergency officers would have been discharged from the army by Sept SC, 1919.
 The cost of the plan which the army now has is S6,5OO, ,OOO, 900, and if no legislation were enacted per .nilt'ng the War Department to re- tain the services of about $500 emer- gency officers, it is contended # would have been absolutely impossi- ble 10 take care of this plan. Certain branches of the service, notably the Medical Corps. which has some 35,- OCo convalescent and wounded sol diers to care for, and the air service would have been greatly handicap ped. if the legislation sought was not Cranted.
 While the House, in passing :he Senate bill yesterday, made some amendments, they were not of such a character as to prevent a1 agree ment when the bill is considered in conference.

Men MIuht Try This

The New York University has a novel women's law class. composed in large part of women of means who manage their oW nestateS and other business interests. The attendance is about fifty.
 The class was unique when it was first organized. and even now there are fcw others of it's kind in existence There are no compulsory entrance re- cuirements for it's students, no exam nations and no final awards of diplo- mas except by special arrangement The women are merely there to learn legal details which will enable them 10 avoid being taken advantage of in business transactions.
 They never expect to take fee for legal services or to try a case in court. but the ydo expect to be able to dis cover a doubtful clause in any busi- ness contract that may be presented to them. They also expect 10 know what their rights are in a real estate deal or the settlement of mortgage. When they have finished the course, they will seldom need to stop in the midst of d business conversation, as many a man has to do. and say, "I will have to con suit my counsel
 The idea was the outgrowth of a movement started nearly tirty years ago by the Womens Legal Education society, whose members felt that wom- en should be equipped for conducting large bushes separations without feel ing a lack of knowledge due to previous inexperience. It grew from a small beginning until now there is a fund of S25,0O0 which permanently endows a lectureship chair. Scholarships in the class amounting to s1o.0OO also have been esta blished.
 Some of the women members have been exceptionally wealthy. and these have been in many cases particularly keen to learn.

ITALY OWES BIG
 DEBT TO THRONE
tScribner'S.)

Italian unity, the dominant preoccu- patton of all patriotic Italians the last three hundred years, owes it's actual accomplishment to the strong hand and daring inittiVc of the royal house of Savoy.
 It was the head Of the ruling house, guided by the wise counsel of his able minister, Count Cavour, who presented the question of Italian unity to the at tention of Europe thus securing the active assistance of Napoleon III and the cooperation of the French, without which the task of driving out the Aus trians would have been impossible.
 This is the debt that Italy owes it's present ruling dynasty. And, though republican sentiment is still strong throughout the peninsula. and the im- polling force in the creation of united Italy, love of liber'y.' still remains. the kings of the house of Savoy have rcconciled themselves so well with this modern spirit that today they are not to be considered constitutional mon- archs in the much diluted form, as in { England but rather wha- may justly be called representatives of royal re- publicanism."
