LARGE ATTENDANCE AT NORMAL SCHOOLS ;Bv T"NTTEr Press 1 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July S. -Normal schools of Indiana have an unusually large attendance this year and school authorities hope that the shortaye of teachers in many counties last year will be supplied when the term opens In September. Dr. Horrace Ellis, state superintendent of public Instruction, today declared that the main shortage last year was in the high schools. Some teachers were transferred from grade work to the high schools. There is need especially of manual training and agriculture teachers. "Word has been sent cut by Dr. Ellis to township trustees that they have the right to employ teachers to supervise vocational training or other war emergency work and pay them out of the general township funds. This resulted In the employment of many teachers during the. vacation period MS ?a rden supervisors, food instructors and In other capacities. Teachers are now being trained in state normal schools to take up vocational work In S-rterr.ber and the school authorities are confident that there will be a sufficient supply of capable instructors. JMany teachers, however, have gone, into other lines of work on account of the higher vases pa.'d. In Indianapolis alone scores of women who taught in the schools last year have taken tip work with industrial plants and they probably will not return to teaching in the autumn. Their places v. i hive to be filled by teachers fresh from normal. HUNS DEMAND CITY OF MOSCOW (T'NTTEO PF.FS CBLn.-,RAV.l STOCKHOLM. July K. Cermany will demand the right to police Moscow- and Petrograd under the Ruise of maintaining ordr, as the result of th assassination o.f its ambassador to Itussla, according to information received here tody through diplomatic sources. The Germans, who charge that the murder was the work of the entente, will further demand free p:issnee of troops to the Murrr.nn coast by way of Petrograd. The Bol3hoviki will either ncced to the German demand or abdicate. The former net is more probable as Premier Konine is reported to hue prepared an apology which will be forwarder) to P.erlin at once. P.ussian socialist revolutionists here relievo rm-rr.r.cr of their party assassinated the 'Jrmun ambassador. LTJDENDORF TO HELP AUSTRIANS n"v-Tr:r Pnns9 "Am.njr?AM 1 PARIS.
