Note of the German
Reich to the Greek
Government

Since the commencement OF
hostilities which were forced
upon Germany by the declara-
tons of war on the part of Great
Britain and France the German
government has always express
ed in clear and unambiguous
terms their intention to limit the
military conflict between the bel
ligerent states to these states
themselves and in particular to
keep the Balkan peninsula out of
the war. They have repeatedly
declared in equally definite terms
that they would oppose any Bri
tish attempt to extend the war to
other countries Immediately and
with all the resources at their
disposal.
When the British expedition
arv force was destroyed and it's
remnants were driven out of Nor
way and France our continent
was completely cleared Of British
troops. All of the countries OF
Europe then had a common inter
est in maintaining Britains COM
olete exclusion from the CONT
lent as the most certain guaran-
tee Of peace in Europe and in not
permitting single British soldier
TO set foot on European soil.
This question existed for the
Greek people in exactly the same
form as for the other continental
peoples and it was clear that the
Greek government would to
these circumstances be we'll ad-
vised to adopt an attitude Of SIM
cere and strict neutrality. Such
an attitude would have been an
entirely natural one for Greece
and would have served her own
proper interests particularly be-
cause none of the belligerents
could have had a really vital in
terest in involving country stu
ated far from the actual theatre OF
war in the conflict in which thew
were engaged. For this reason
Germany and Italy have never
demanded from Greece anything
other than the preservation OF true
neutrality.
1t is therefore all the more in
comprehensive that the Greek
government should have never
theless abandoned the course
which was clearly prescribed for
them and have proceeded on lines
which were liable to bring their
people sooner or later into ser
ious danger. AS If you know
Greece abandoned her neutrality
in fact when the war broke out
in September 1899 and began to
side with at first secretly and af-
terwards openly with the nemies
OF Germany j. e. principally with
Britain. To what extent Greek
policy had been influenced even
before the outbreak OF war by the
sympathy iorBritain which exist
ed in government circles is shown
by the mere fact that i'm April
1899 Greece accepted the political
guarntee of the western powers.
She must have clearly under
stood from the wellknown con-
sequences OF British guarantees
that in this way she would neces-

Contract For
Water Voted

Ypsilanti city council Monday eve
ming approved a contract for supply
ing the Ypsilsnti bomber plant with
water. The plant Is to use 100000
gallons a day and whatever excess
amount is practicable.
Rates to be charged are: a sery-
ice charge OF $50 per month, for
which quantities OF water up TO
$4,000 cubic feet per month will be
allowed; for all amounts In excess
OF $4,000 cubic feet per month and
including 10000 cubic feet per
month, the actual quantity is to
be metered at 81 per 1000 cubic
feet; for amounts In excess OF 2OO,-
900 cubic feet per month, at So cents
per 1000 cuDic feet.
Harvey c. Holmes. city clerk,
said today that the bomber plant
is now using nearly 20 per cent OF
the amount pumped by the water
department. During November, he
said, the department pumped 49,.
$4,000 gallons. OF which the bomb
er plant used about 100000 gal
Ions.
Because much OF this water is
used in construction work now. the
bomber plant quantity is expected
TO drop when the plant is com
pleted.

To this house come all the chill
dren OF the school with cherished
toys which they have outgrown or
books which they have read or
things which they give just be-
cause they want to give.
Each year Mr.. and Mrs. Santa
Claus and their elfin helpers from
the first grade plead for presents
to fill the Giant Stocking and the
Gift House. Children are chosen
daily from the lower six grades to
receive the gifts that are brought
to the house that day. These are
later distributed among the needy
Of Ypsilanti.
This custom Of supplying gifts
for the less fortunate was con.
ceived in 1894 by Miss Margaret
Z. Wise. then first grade supervis-
ing teacher In the old Training
School. According TO the original
plan q gigantic red stocking in
which children could drop their
toys was hung in the first grade.

In giving grew. So much vas

a serious police problem growing
out OF the construction OF the Ypsi-
lanti bomber plant two miles east
OF the city. This plant Is to en-
ploy between $4,000 and $4,000 men.
Guided by statistical figures this
means that q new community OF
100000 citizens are going TO locate
within committing distance of the
factory where many OF them are
employed. Consequently. Ypsilanti
may expect an influx OF many thou
sands OF new citizens and will at
any rate become the center OF
rapid development, both east and
west OF the city. with enormously IN

problems. The new police station
should be built to accommodate
the burden that such an increase
in population demands Of the COM
