Illinois Co-Eds Assail Badger Lads Jf/fo Spurn College Wives JNiaxF Chicago, May 2K.—They all ca pitulate sooner or later. This, summed up. is the opinion of pretty University of Illinois co-eds of the Wisconsin university male stu dents who have organized a society to discourage marriage of college men and college women. "They're afraid of their equals,” said Miss Isabella Minis. "Men can't put tilings over on college-educated women.” Sentiment of the entire student body, while not quoteri as strongly as some individuals express them selves. is in disfavor with the Wis consin organization. Both male and female students at Illinois agree that the college woman will make a good wife. But Miss Veronica Haering gives the "bird" tq the Wisconsin college woman haters. "Mo matter how noble their inten tions,” said Miss Haering. "they will 1 flop sooner or later. I'\p made six1 fop already. Perhaps they don't want college women ‘because they | can t cope with them.” Feel Inferiority. All the women agree that the basic j reason for the Badger organization is that the college men feel their in- i ferlority to the college-bred women. "A man who doesn’t want his wife to be his equal Isn't worth much.” de clared Miss Millie June Goelitz, pretty ingenue of "Holla Wild Oats," the fall production of the university lramatic association. "Any man who hasn't any more | will power than to let a girl make a fool of him doesn't deserve a wife with a university education. Men. being naturally inclined to play the part of a fool, are afraid of women who have the ability to show up this propensity." So much confidence Is placed by the girls in the male students at Illinois (or possibly they feel they have their boys better trained) that they fear no such organization i among their fellow students. Abso- , lutely no chance for such a move- : ment there, they say. Thinks Scheme Funnr . Miss Charlette Woodward thinks j the whole scheme is funny. “It's just a group of notoriety seekers,” $ she said. "Absolutely ridiculous to [ ADVERTISEMENT.

Wisconsin university girls have come out with denunciations of the mere male. Some of the hoys don't know their stuff, Miss Kitty Callahan, one of the girl leaders at Wisconsin, de clared. "The men 'dale' only with the frowzy headed. bobbed haired girls who get their 'lines' from Life and who do not have to display a great amount of common sense to please their partners,” said Miss Calla han, Girl lias No Chance. “I'nless she is a fusser a giri has no chance to get a ‘date.’ The men do not know the nice girls on the campus. Why, some of the lead ers in the school takeout tiie most undersirahie girls.” Miss Mary Cunningham,1 elected "most beautiful girl” in Wiscon sin. dismissed thought of the organ I Ization with.

Rangoon, May '26.—Miss Jane Ad dams, American sociologist, noted as the founder and head of Hull House, t'hicago, has corpe to the conclusion in a six weeks' tlyur of British India that racial feeling Is still strong and that the problem of harmonizing the various antagonistic elements is not being adequately faced at present. WJien Interviewed here by a repre sentative of the Associated Press, Miss Addams said: "The question of the relation to the races is very acute in India, arid has not been perfectly studied. We need to approach It with an_o[g*n mind us we have approached economic and other problems. In many cases these racial prejudices are due to differences in religion. As a rule, racial antagonisms have their basis in the minds of the people, rath er than in any inherent inability to live hi harmony with each other. "In the larger cities,” said Miss Addams, "the housing situation con stitutes another difficult social prob lem. This is especially true of Bom bay and Calcutta, where the prob lem has got beyolid the power of the civil authorities. In this respect, how ever, cities are very much alike the world over. In each Indian city I have met small groups of people who are making conscientious attempts to mret the situation and to promote j a higher standard of living.” Modern Styles Preferred by Ohio University Co-Eds 1 Athens, O., May 26.—Modern styles of dress are preferred by coeds at Ohio university here, according to a recent letter canvass.

Germany lo PJaee Lien on Property for Reparations Mortgage of 2.) Per Cent \\ ill Be Placed on All Private Holdings to Cover Cuarantees. Hy t nlv^rKiil Spniro Berlin, May 26.—The plan of the German government to encumber Ger man private property .with a mort gage of 25 per cent of its gold value to cover the reparations guarantees, will be put Into effect. The plan has been under discussion for a forthnlght by the executive hoard of the National Assication of German Industries, and late Friday night the board Informed Chancellor: t'uno of its willingness to support the ! government's plan. As this will necessitate the taking of an exact estimate of the gold value of every single indtistrial enterprise , In Germany, which is obviously Im possible to do at a moment's notice, the following provisional estimate will be made: Every enterpirse will be esetimated on the baBls of the number of work men employed, each employe being ap praised at 100 gold marks annually. The nutter of these is estimated at 15.000. 000, thus the result wilt he 1.500.000. 000 gold marks annually to cover the guarantees. In other words the National As sociation of German Industries pledg es itself to guarantees amounting to an effective of 1,500,000,000 gold marks. The new German note will .there fore, contain double guarantees, those offered hy tho state and those sup ported by German industry. The state 1 guarantees consist of, first, customs; second, revenue derived from the al cohol and tobacco monopoly; third, profits accruing, to railroads after the present deficit has been eliminated by increasing passenger tariff, 100 per cent, freight and freight tariff 50 per cent, beginning June 1. Although It is impossible to say when the new note will he sent. It 1 is generally believed that the a£ree: rnent of the government and the asso ciation will speed action. It is also - believed that the new plan will be ac- ' ceptable to the British cabinet, be- 1 cause of its businesslike basis. A concrete tower 600 feet high is to be erected at Wembley. England.

Berlin Is Hot on Trail of Dogs Vi itliont Licenses Berlin, May 26.—In a determined effort to add to the city revenues the tax authorities, aided by the 'log catcher, are hot on the trail of digs roaming the streets without licenses.

Most of the dogs apparently hie of the famous German i>olice dog breed, with daschunds second. Notes of 17W Found in Tree \ncienl Hill* Crumble Into l)u*t When Oak Felled— orlli a Fortune. | Canton, O. May 26.—Three hun dred dollars in United States notes, a century and a third old. were found in the heart of an oak tree by Harry Smith and James McGhee, Augusta township farmers, when they cut down ihe aged monarch of the forest recently. The money Is believed to have been j hidden away by army couriers in the j early days of the American republic I when hard pressed by Indian foes. | The notes were found in a cavity, but ! as the air reached it the paper crumpled into dust, although a frag ment, show-ing the date of the blllj— 1790—remained. Authorities upon ancient currency said that if care had been exercised the 30 $10 notes found would have been worth at low estimate $1,000 apiece, and collectors might even have bid higher? The theory entertained is tiiat the money was sent to pay some of the soldiers in this tcritory then engaged in quelling Indian outbreak*. The tree stood close to the famous Tub- j carawas trail that ran from Fort I Uuquesne, Pittsburgh, to Marietta. Training in Citizenship at Colleges Advocated Washington, May 26—The im portance of training in good citzen 1 ship was stressed at the sixth annual meeting of the American Council on Education in Washington, when the council passed resolutions advocating such training and authorized the ap polntment of a committee to co opei* ate |ri developing these courses. Commissioner of Education John 4 Tigert, speaking of the work Bking done by the Federal Council on Citi zenship Training, said that a canvass Is being made of the citzenshlp status ! of communities throughout tj>e coun try. The survey is made through competition, each community keeping a score card showing its citzenship I rating according to certain rules laid down by the Federal Council on Citi zenship Twining. ^ The scoring is based on five poitns; general Intelligence, technical fitness, physical fitness, attitude toward gov \ eminent, and questions of a moral and social nature. These cards will 1 lie tabulated into a comprehensive report, available for all educational agencies that they may have flrst i hand knowledge of citizenship con . ditions in the country.
