WOULD LIMIT FOREIGNERS
IN GERMAN UNIVERSITIES
(Correspondence of the Associated Preaa)
OOLOONK, July 27. With the com
plete figures of the number of students
from neutral fore'gn slatea who visited
German universities during the last !
rseme.ter. now at hand, th noeiniscne i
Zeltung, foreseeing a tremendous Influx ;
when peace shall hav come, decides
that some restriction should be placed on j
foreigners In the Interests or uerman
Students.
Khcrtly before the war ther was such
a large number of Russians at th Uni
vyrsiiy of Halle that th would-b Oer
man students could, find n lc for
themselves. Such a thing must never
happen again, th Koelnlsch declares,
In. arguing against unrestricted admis
sion to the German Institutions of learn
ing. It also cites the case of th Rus
sian student at th Vnlverslty. of Rer
un, sunnected of espionage at the out
break of the war, who openly ahouted
words of contempt of all things German
Tills should teach a lesson for the
future, the paper declares.
Notwithstanding the war, th ' Univer
sity of Berlin had during the semester
no lees than l.i'M students from foreign
countries. Including Austria. The ma
jority were Swiss, Roumanian. Bulgar
ian, Greek and Turkish. Only a few
Americans were left, principally, the
Koclniache msgc'ts. because they be
lieved what the American papers eakr-1
about "utarved-out Germany."

FRENCH TRAI11 DOGS
FOR WAR SERYICE
Are Used in Ambulance Corps,

Carriera and Trench
Guards.
PERFORM THEIR DUTIES WELL
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
PARIS, July 16. The National
Society of Ambulance Dogs of France
now haa eight kennels, where experts
are busy preparing dogs for service
at the front They are training pa
trol dogs, dispatch carriers and
trench guards, aa well aa ambulance
dogs, with such success that the army
Is calling for more than they can sup
ply. Two hundred and twenty-five
patrol dogs have just been aent to a
part of the front that cannot be dis
closed. These dogs accompany pa
trolling and reconnnoitering parties
at night and carry messages back to
the lines when necessary. The dog
is able to perform this duty much
quicker and In far greater security
than a man. The service is ot great
value, as It permits a patrolling party
that has urgent news to send back,
to use the dog to maintain communi
cations with the main force while
continuing a reconnaissance.
It takes only ten days for a dog ot
ordinary Intelligence to learn this service
so that It may be relied upon to perform
It like a trained soldier.

Th trench dog la taught first of all,
to maintain an absolute silence until the
approach of strangers to the trench; not
until the enemy Is within 200 yards must
the dog make a sign, then he gives
warning by a low growl. Many attempts
of th enemy to make a surprise attack
by creeping up to tb trenches In the
night hav been detected by their Use.
The service 1 quite as exposed and aa
dangerous as that of an advanced sentry
or lookout, and he often shares their
fate. 'cWlon," a remarkably Intelligent
sentry dog that became the glory of his
company before he was killed by a frag
ment of a bomb was burled with pomp
and honored with a cross to perpetuate
his service.
"True," a little fox terrier who sought
out 1W wounded men In concealed places
during the battle of the Marne, was one
of a number of ambulance dogs Just sent
back to the front after a . well-earned
rest "True" stuck to hla post during
the pursuit of tha Germans until his
master was killed, then. In th confusion
of th advance, lost his company. Ha
turned up one morning exhausted and
footsore at the kennel of tha president
of th society of ambulance dog at
Malsona Lafltte, where ' he had been
trained.
All that dogw are doing and have done
at the front will not be known until after
the war; the censor finds som of their
service so Important that ha says to
disclose It would give valuable hints to
the French enemies.

TO C0NTR0LJ00D SUPPLY
Germany Adopting Measures to Pre
rent Advance in Prices and Keep
Necessaries at a Minimum.
C0UBT ' TO SETTLE QUESTIONS
(Correspondanc of the Associated Press.)
BRRLIN, July 18. The War Grain
company, which for the last six months
has had charge of th organisation and
purchase of food supptlew In Russia, la
to disappear ahortly. It will b super- i
seded by a central body acting under the :
direction of the Imperial government and ;
composed of equal numbers of producers !
and consumers. The main purpose Is to j
Improve th economic war machinery i
during th next harvest year, especially j
as regards the fixing of maximum price
and th control of the food supply.
Th closing sessions of Lhe Prussian
Diet, which adjourned June 24, were de
voted to conomio problems. Extended
reports were presented by a special com
mittee which has been considering th
matter from all point of view, and th
Diet endorsed th committee's various
recommendations. ,
T Coatrol Prices. '
Th German government Is now pre
paring to establish a systematic control
of prices of all goods necessary to th
conduct of war, taking all matters of this
kind out of the bands of the Individual
states. Practically all raw materials and
half-finished goods are already liable to
confiscation, but the machinery for regu
lating prices Is Inadequate and It is neces
sary to establish some adequate means
of checking systematic effort to force
price upwards. This Is to .be done
through a central court of arbitration,
whioh la to settle all queetlon concerning
th value ot goods. While It Is admitted
that war prices must Inevitably be higher
than peace -price, the court -will aettle
exactly what amount ot profit is per
missible.
One of the reports presented to the
Prussian Diet by th special committee on
the economlo ontlook had to do with the
Industrial situs lion. It emphasised the
Importance of coal and Iron production
as decisive means of exerting political
Influence.
The Coal g apply.
Oermany, It waa explained, waa able by
drawing on tha Belgian supply of coal
to prevent her neutral neighbor from
becoming entirely dependent on England.
Coal, moreover, la the foundation of tha
manufacturing of explosive, according;
to the report, and In many ways serves
the most vital needs of the navy.
The Iron Industry la equally Important
according to the committee. Since the
beginning of the war the production of
Iron ore has been Increased by about
1,000,000 tons a month, and tha manu
facture of finished iron and steel has
been doubled. Rut even with this Increase
there la no excess of these products, "for
th manufacture of hells has been larger
than anyone dreamed possible before the
war." Rut In the words of the report
"It has been proved that we. can supply
all the labor that Is necessary without
In any way diminishing the strength of
the army. It has also been proved that
Germany can get over all the difficulties
caused by the Interruption of importation
of raw materials, and we are confident
that Germany will emerge from th war,
both economically and politically, more
Independent and stronger than ever be-'
fore."

TODAY'S BEAUTY KELFS
Nothing excites more criticism than
a woman with her face all daubed with
face powder In her desire' to hide a
faulty or an aging skin. Instead of
using powder, which clogs and enlarges
th pores. It la far better to use a good
face lotion that will improv and per
manently benefit the skin. By dissolv
ing four ounces of spurmax In a half
pint of hot water you can make an ex
pensive lotion that will do wonders aa
a skin whltener and complexion beaiitl
fier. It removes all shlnlness, sallow
ness and roughness, and gives the skin
a smooth, velvety tone, while It dcrt-s not
rub off easily like powder, nor does It
show on the skin.
. By washing th hair with a teaspoon
ful of canthrox dissolved In a cup of
hot water, afterwards rinsing thorough
ly with clear water, one finds that It
dries- quickly and evenly, Is unstreaked,
bright soft and very fluffy, so fluffy,
In fact, that It looks more abundant than
It 1 and so soft that arranging It be
come a pleasure. This simple, inexpen
sive shampoo cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly of all dandruff and dirt, and
leaves a clean, wholesome feeling.- 'All
scalk Irritation will disappear, and the
hair will be brighter and glossier than
ever, before. Advertisement
