RETAINING DISABLED SAILORS.
Representatives of.Navy Yards and Hos
pital Work with Federal Board.

Washington, d. c., May 24.-The fed
eral board for vocational education has
prepared a plan establishing a system
combining curative workshops and sub
sequent vocational training, which has
been adopted by the navy department as
a standard to be used by all navy yards
in formulating their schemes for the re.
training of men in the navy and ma
rine corps who are entitled to the ad-
yantages under the law governing this
practice, The variety of occupations to
be found in a navy yard provide suffi-
cient means for the vocational training
of the men, and the fexibility of the
plan permits them to be trained for
short or long periods during the day in
any kind of work suitable to their physi-
cal strength. Vocational training is con-
tinued after therapeutic training is no
longer needed, the federal board bear
ing all expense Navy authorities are
in hearty sympathy with the plan, which
is already in operation at the Norfolk
navy yard. Commandants and medical
officers are cooperating with the repre-
sentatives of the federal board. Besides
the Norfolk navy yard, others which
are working with the boards in the re-
training of disabled sailors and marines
are those at Charleston, S. c., and Ports
mouth, N. H. Arrangements have also
been made for this work to be done at
the Philadelphia yard. Men in the navy
yards are now receiving training in the
following yocations: Machine ship work,
electrical, joinery, drafting, typewriting
and stenography, arc Welding, ship fit
ting, dental mechanics, barbering, and
gyro compass test work.

GERMANY TRIED BRIBE
FOR PEACE WITH RUSSIA
A Prince and Princess of Montenegro

Berlin, May % Correspondence Of the
Associated Press An alleged attempt
to bride prince and princess OF Monte
negro with $l5,000000 to S25,SO0,000 in
order to induce the princess to intereede
with the Grand Duke Nikolaievitch of
Russia for separate peace between
Germany and Russia, featured the close
of the trial of Captain Count Nayhaus
on charge of treason.
The bribery evidence was contained in
deposition made by Minister Erzberger.
Erzberger testified that he became con-
WINGED during the war that Nayhaus was
intensely anxious to serve his fatherland
in some capacity Questioned by Nay
haus how this might best be done, Err
berger said he told Nayhaus to try to
bring about separate peace with one
Of Germany's enemies, preferably Rus
STA Anyone who could do that, Erzberg-
er told him, would earn the gratitude of
the fatherland.
Nayhaust told Erzberger that Niko-
laievitch was the only man through
whom the plan might be accomplished,
and that the only person who was not
afraid of the grand duke was beautiful
SldHu uuthtSHy NOW a
Montenegro princess. 1t would be nee
essary, however, to gain the assent and
confidence of the Montenegro prince,
who at the time was in Strengthened
circumstances.
The deposition continues that Nay
haus suggested the prince could be won
over for $l5000000 and that Erzberger
replied that money was no object, that
S25,000,000 would be forthcoming if
needed Erzberger said he pointed out
to Nayhaus that the government must
not be known in connection with the
negotiations and that someone would
have to go to Montenegro. Count Nay
haus volunteered to make the attempt
Mayhaus planned, according to Err
berger's testimony, to land at quiet
spot on the Montenegrin coast from an
Austrian torpedo boat, or to enter the
country under false name by way OF
Italy.
Erzberger said he approved OF the plan
but warned Nayhaus he would be hanged
if caught Shortly afterward, accord
ing to the deposition, Nayhaus became
i'll and underwent an operation which
prevented him from taking any further
part in the scheme
He was brought to trial on a charge
