With camps at seven different points and an expected enrollment of 0,000 men, the "Plattsbuig idea" will loom large in national affairs this year. The "Plattsburg- idea" is plain plan for military training of Americans. It does not advocate militarism. It is simply a plan to frive young- men four or five weeks cf healthy, outdoor life and military training in the field under regular army officers and with regular army troops. The original Plattsburg camps will continue on Lake Champlain, where the first one will open June 5 nd continue until July 2. Four other camps will follow there in succession, lasting until October 5. The first camp, this year, will be at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga., from April 3 to April 30.

General Leonard Wood, head of the Department of the East, in a public statement, says, "The whole effect of the camps has been excellent, both from the standpoint of increasing the sense of each man's responsibility to the nation fcr service and his obligation to fit himself to render it effectively and efficiently.

TRAINING CAMPS i MACHINE, fcally and morally, and with a higher and better conception ot their duty as citizens." Foundation for National Army. Since, under preEent conditions, the men at the camps are obliged to pay their own way, no express obligation or enlistment under the Government is involved. Those who have followed the trend of the training, however, are. impressed with the possibility of the Plattsburg idea becoming the foundation for a national army, through effective help and recognition by the national governiment. Throughout the whole idea prevails uie spins 01 emciency, discipline, patriotism, and national service. The purpose of the training camps association is to develop the common aims not only of the several camps but to co-ordinate the Plattsburg work with results the students' camps' have accomplished. The student volunteer camps, which started at Gettysburg in 1913, have been merged into the general Plattsburg movement. The association, froia its headquarters at 31 Nassau street. New York City, has announced that it will send any applicant full details con- ' cerjHzy? jejuoHinent and instruction. ..

Women in Chicago Graft Case

IWSTO" i f

jster

The investigation in Chicago of the charges that Mrs. Page Waller Eaton, until recently Superintendent of the Bureau of Social Survey in the Department of Public Welfare, had to pay one third of her salary to Mrs. Louise Osborne Rowe, head of the Department, is attracting unusual interest because it concerns the first important case of alleged grafting among women in a state that has adopted woman suffrage. The charges are being investigated by the City Council Committee on Schools, Fire, Police and Civil Service and also by the Public Service Commission. The committee has recommended a Grand Jury investigation. -

CARRANZA AGREEMENT NOW CAUSE OF WORRY

WASHINGTON, Mar. 21 Although a very lengthy report was received from General Funston today, review ing the general situation along the border, its contents were withheld by the war department. It was staled that the dispatch gave no new details of the reported fighting between Villa and the Carranzista forces of General Canoq. Execution of the agreement to be drafted by the United States depends entirely upon the position taken by the Carranzista forces now massed along the American border. So far these troops have made no trouble for the Americans, but. their attitude is generally" described as "sullenly pissive," and it is admitted that it would not take very much to stir up real trouble. That is the one thing that th? state and war departments have been CANADA FEELS BOOST IN COST OF LIVING WASHINGTON, March 21. Cost of living in Canada is steadily soaring, according to consular agents' reports to the commerce department. ' Statistics covering the past year show that foods jumped in price, and a very steep advance was recorded in materials, chiefly metals and chemicals. The cost of a weekly supply of thirty staple foods rose from $7.79 to $8.13. Flour showed a slight decline, but butter, eggs, potatoes, etc., increased in price. O

working to prevent. If present conditions can be maintained until after Villa actually is captured or killed, the Americans will be withdrawn in . hurry. But officials are fearful that this will yet prove impossible. PEACE LEAGUE BEGINS WORK The League to Enforce Peace, of which William Dudley Foulke of Richmond is a member and committeeman, has started a movement to have political parties in the coming national conventions at Chicago and St. Louis insert planks in their platforms endorsing the proposal that a league of nations be formed to insure world peace. This to be obtained by the establishment of international tribunals to which international disputes can be referred, all nations to pledge their joint armed and economic, forces against any signatory which declares war on or begins hostilities prior to a recourse to such tribunals. An active campaign has been started in each state. Each representative ot the league is requested to acquaint the delegates to the state conventions of all parties with the uniform plank which has been prepared and urge upon them the adoption of the plan in local party platforms. Ex-president Taft is president of the league and its personnel includes many of the most prominent men of the United States.

The New Milburn Brougham

Never was any electric such an unqualified success as the new Milburn Brougham. Never before was there such beauty, such style, such comfort, such lightness, such speed and mileage, at anywhere near the price $1585, at Toledo. The Milburn is now faster than ever and now travels even more miles per charge. And many minor refinements make it a smarter and even more efficient car.

Though Milburn lightness caused a general lightening of electrics, the Milburn is still by far the lightest.
