be of service to the country and are
now appearing before the boards ask
ing to be sent in the first five per
cent quota Enough men have made
this request in the Fourth district to
fiill the quota an4, if it is possible to
use them Chairman Brady says they
will be allowed to go.
First to Be Non-Coms.
By going with the first detachment
the men are liable to be given non

with experience. These men will be
given offices, and when the troops ar
rive they will be in line to care for
them.

will have everything in order for the
cooking and when the second quota
arrives will have meals in waiting
for them.

Regardless of where others may go,
the western delegates of the People's
Council of America for Peace and
Democracy are going to try and hold
their convention in Minneapolis next
week. If the police permit, the con
vention will convene Monday morn
ing, otherwise it may be later.

cars left for Minneapolis over the
Great Western. Those in the party
were from Colorado, California. Ore
gon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada and
Utah. They refused to discuss their
plans, merely saying they were for
peace. Half a dozen cities have
barred their convention, but they
hope to be able to get together in
Minneapolis.
The westerners asserted that they
have not head from the eastern dele
gates, but are of the opinion that they
will be in Minneapolis next Monday.

PAPERS OF BERLIN
SCORE WILSON NOTE
German Press Derides Idea of
Teuton Democracy; Say
President Gives Them
No Choice.
Amsterdam, Sept. 1. President
Wilson's reference, in his reply to
Pope Benedict's peace proposals, to
the German autocracy as distinct from
the German people are commented
upon unfavorably hy th? German
press. The, Tageblatt of Berlin says:
' "President Wilson speaks of de
mocratization of Germany, which we
also desire, but it is an internal ques
tion and one we consider forbidden
territory for foreigners, as a condition
of peace."
The Lokal Anzeiger says:
"The whole fallacy of President
Wilson's argument is clear from the
sentence i.. regard to the freedom of
nations which are themselves to decide
their own fate. President Wilson will
not give us freedom to decide for our
selves, but would take it from us."
"The German people will not fail to
return the answer which already has
been made once ey the president of
the Reichstag with the unanimous ac
cord of the members of Parliament,
which is elected on the basis of the
most liberal franchise in the world.
This time, however, the answer will
be clearer, much clearer."
The Vossische Zeitung says:
"Probably President Wilson does
not know anything about the declara
tions of General Soukhomlinoff (for
mer Russian minister of war now on
trial for treason), and of General
Januschkevitch (former chief of the
imperial general staff of Russia), con
cerning the real proceedings which
led to the outbrtak of the war. Other
wise he would have changed his tactics."

Voters' Conservation league ''an

South Side High school are filled to

"Dad" Weaver's Condition
- Is Very Much Improved
J. D. (Dad) Weaver, secretary of
Ak-Sar-Ben, injured in an automobile
accident Wednesday, is reported to
be resting easier today. Following
peritonitis, which developed Thurs

sion by relatives and friends, the
veteran Ak-Sar-Ben secretary began
to improve and his chances for re
covery are considered much better.
