Patronize the advertisers MILHII WOULD GET STATE RECOGNITION Battalion Not Liable to Ser i vice; Merely Means Uni versity Could Obtain Supplies Easily. Enlistment for Two Years Only But Commandant Could Qrant Absence. Contrary to general opinion, the se curing of a section of atate militia for the University of Oregon will not in any way binder the men from pursuing their daily habits and daily work, aecoriug to Lieutenant-Colonel John Leader. “I want to correct a statement which appeared in the Emerald several days ago,” he said last night, "stating that the University battalion would be under the control of the state and liable to im mediate service. It would mean nothing more than that we would have recogni tion by the government, and as an organ ized body under the government, we could more easily obtain guns and am munition in the future. Enlistment for Two Years. “The time of enlistment would be for two years, which means that at any time the ocminnndant could grant a leave of absence to anyone who might be leav ing the University. This leave could be extended to cover even the period of two years, which is the length of time that the students would be obligated for ser vice.” It is the opinion of Colonel Leader that with this state militia at the Uni versity, the obtaining of an appropriation for a summer camp, and summer train ing of arms and ammunition would be greatly expedited. Must Swear Allegiance. The men must swear to support the consitution of the state of Oregon, and also the constitution of the United States which in his belief, is no more than any man in the University is willing to do. The troops could not be taken outside of the state, nor would they be liable to service in the national army until mem bers were drafted into the service through the regular channels which are now in force for all men between the ages of 21 and 31. "I want it understood that in no way would the obtaining of the state militia tie the students up in any way. They would be perfectly free to do as they saw fit, the regular commander of the battalion being able to grant them leaves whenever necessary.” ROSENBERG’S ORATION GOOD, SAYS PRESCOTT Speech to Pro-Germans Remarkable; Delegates Chosen for State Con test at Salem. The address of Abe E. Rosenborg, *21, who will represent the University at the tenth annual oratorical contest, held at Salem, Friday March 8, is very remarkable, according to Professor Rob ert W. Prescott, instructor in public speaking. The speech is addressed to the 30,000 pro-Germans who are living in the United States. The title is, “Your Name—Honored Yesterday—To day Loathed—What Shall It Be To morrow?” Mr. Rosenberg states that the old Germany was honored for her great finalities of character—the very quali ties for which the allies are now fight ing. He aim* to show that the old Ger many has been betrayed by the mad despots who have reversed the old Ger many and made its name a word of hiss ing and scorn. The greatest service the people of Germany, who are living in ihis country, can do for their fatherland Is to join with their motherland, America, and help her Have Germany from the men who are ruining her. The people in Germany are helpless under the spell of these men, and it is up to the ones who are her<*. and still sane and free, to raise the name to the old place that it once held. Delegates who will represent the Uni versity are. from the senior class. Wait er Meyers and Harold Cake; from the junior class, Dwight Wilson and Mane Iiadura; from the sophomore class. Jesse Garner and Merritt Whitten; from the freshman class, .Sam Lehman and Aileen Tompkins. After the contest the visiting delegates will be entertained with a banquet.
