military SCHOOLS
RESENT CRITICISM
Association to Combat
Propaganda Emanating
From PaCifiSt Sources.

Resenting what they consider un.
fair criticism OF the military schools
OF this country from pacifist or unin.
formed sources, the Association OF
Military Schools and Colleges of the
United States, at its thirteenth annual
convention In the Washington Hotel
this morning. decided to appoint a
committee II investigate the feasibii-
ity Of awarding scholarships in Amer
lean military schools to European
boys in an effort to combat this
propaganda.
Several speakers emphasized that
the military academies are first OF all
sound academic institutions, prac-
tically none Of whose graduates FOL
low the life Of a professional soldier.
BY devoting the spare time to mill
tary training, these speakers asserted,
the boys are not only greatly bene-
flted physically, but the military train
ing would be of great value to the
country in the event OF war.
Beliving that most Of the propa
ganda had its origin in Europe and Is
then spread over this country by
paciflsts using uninformed persons as
their mediums, the association feels
that awarding scholarships to Euro
pean boys in these academies will gn
a long way in combating the Idea
that these schools inculcate a
militaristic tendency.
The convention. which will last two
days was opened this morning with
q report from the committee on ad
vertising and publicity.
This was followed by reports from,
the committees on relation with the
War Department. academic standing
and establishing an honor society.
Several addresses dealing with Snm.
mer comps. combating contagious
diseases and advantages OF the mill
tary schools Will be given this after.

DEATH CAUSE FOUND.

An autopsy at the District morgue.
performed by Dr. Herbert E. Martyr.
deputy coroner, revealed that Mrs.
Mary NJ. Loesche. 20 years old. pa.
tient at st. Elizabeth's Hospital. who
died suddenly there yesterday morn
ing, came to her death as the result
of a rupture of the heart.
Coroner j. Ramsay Nevitt ordered
an autopsy when he learned that the
woman had fallen to the floor Of a
corridor while she was being sup
ported by two nurses. Physicians at
the hospital were unable to ascribe
the definite cause OF death, believing
that either a stroke of apoplexy or
the effects Of the fall could be re-
sponsible.
DR.. Martyr discovered that the
heart muscles had given way.
