GERMAN PAPER
Savants and Professors Who
Signed Manifesto, Now
See Mistake

Berlin, Dec. 19.-Thirty- of
the 90 German savants and profess
sors who signed on October II. 1914
the famous manifesto attempting TO
justify Germany's course in the war
now realize that they made a
tragic mistake" Sixteen, however
adhere to their belief that the man
ifesto was drawn up in accordance
with facts.
This has been disclosed by a can
vass of the rs living exponents of
German culture who signed the
manifesto. This has just been con-
Quoted by DR.. Hans Weinberg.
Paper Misunderstood.
DIR. Weinberg reports that 80 sign
ers of the celebrated document have
admitted to him that to-day by no
could be maintained. Many of them
he says. insist that they did not cor
rectly read or understand the paper
when they affixed their signatures
to it or allowed them to be attached.
Some of the 80 already expressed
'heir regret that they signed the
statement and eight of them have
withdrawn their signatures since
DR.. Weinberg began his inVestiga-

Regrets His Action
Writing to DR.. Weinberg. Herbert
Gutenberg said that the SO men who
signed the manifesto at the begin
ming of the war then believed that
Germany had been attacked under
handedly and that the country mere
~ avaiIed itself to its right of self
defense.
Professor Brentano has declared
that he was urged by telegraph to
allow his signature to be appended,
that he assented only TO regret it
bitterly after he saw the text of the
paper. Felix Weingaertner writes
IN a similar vein.
OF the IS living scientists and
professors, DIR. Weinberg received
replies from So. Sixteen who stood
by their guns and declared their ad-
hcrence to their original standpoint
include Siegiried Wagner, Eduard
Meyer, Doerfeld and LenZ.
one of the sixteen replied that he
had read the manifesto again,
sentence by sentence, and had not
found n single one which, according
to his knowledge OF the situation

three OF the si@ners did not reply to

SCHOOL CHILDREN DEMAND
THE METRIC SYSTEM

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 25 The
World Trade Club is daily receiving
evidence as to the growing strength OF
public opinion thruout Britain in fav-
or of metric standardization. Just the
other day word came from one of their
co-workers in England of an interesting
episode that took place during one OF
his lecture tours.
At kiugsbridge he spoke before a
gathering of enthusiastic schoolboys
from the local grammar school, tell
ing them Of what adoption Of the met
ric units of measurement would mean
to the school children of the world
how easy metrics are TO learn, how
simple to apply-in short. that it
would lessen the necessary time spent
on arithmetic by three years.
At the close of his talk, the boys
unanimously adopted resolution urg-
ing other schoolboys to go on strike
with them against the British weights
and measures and demanding that
only metrics be taught in the school.
These English youngsters realized
the increase in efficiency, and the
immense saving of time and labor
obtainable thru meter-liter-gram.

TO DANCE OR NOT TO
DANCE Is QUESTION
Montrosc People Taking Questionnaire
On Problem. No DECISION Yet

Montrosc, Nov. 2l-A large number
of earnest, anxious parents of high
school students gathered at the cen
tral school building last night 10 dis
cuss the question Of what is TO be
done to provide the young folks with
amuscmcnts that shall have the best
effect iu character building and mini.
mizc the growing tendency of the
girls and boys Of high school age to
seek recreation by attending pubic
dance. where. IL ia said. there is a lack
OF supervision by those who ar"
thOroiy trained and intensely interest
ed IN guiding the amuscmcnts Of the
young along lines that shall have the
very bes, mental and physical effect.
The net results Of the anxious
mothcrs was the appointment of a
committyo Of five with instructions to
mail to all parents Of high school chill
drcn a Vurstlpunairc in the endcavor
to ascertain what course to take.
From The ramarks maar !. seemed
to be the couccnauf OF opinion by the
majority something about as follows,
That dancing should either be pro-
hibitcd or regulated.
That 1t can be prohibited.
y
an official part of the high school
curriculum and hence be at public ex
pcnsc without mourning opposition by
influential taxpayers who are opposed
to dancing altogether
That 1t is the legal and moral right
of parents and all or any other people
to join together in a society to make
and conduct such arrangements as
they desire to inaugurate and super
wise the amusement of their children.

appointed by the chair to prepare and
mail the questionnairies: l.. d. High
