Hope of Vote on Prohibition
Abandoned by Chicago Drys
Chicago, March 21. There will be so
v, -e April 2 on the question of making
Chicago anti-saloon territory, prohibition
leaders admitted today. After a two-
year fight officials of the dry Chicago
federation today admitted defeat on their
petition for a liquor election which they
hoped would have .wiped out the ctly's
6000 saloons and $140,000,000 annual
"drink bill."
The ballots for the April election are
being printed without the liquor ques
tion. Drys now have hopes of making
Chicago dry only by national prohibition.

FULL PUBLICITY
Total Sinkings Since War Be
gan 11,827,572 Tons; New
Construction for Same Pe
riod 6,723,623 Tons.
Washington, March 21. Abandoning
its policy of secrecy, the United States is
about to join with Great Britain in frank
discussion of the submarine menace.
To impress upon the people of this
country the vital necessity or individual
and united effort to beat the U-boat,
Chairman Hurley of the shipping board
haa prepared a statement to follow that
of Sir Eric Geddes, first lord of the ad
miralty before the house of commons
yesterday.
Hurley will openly show the great
tasks before the United States in
speech 'next Tuesday in New York City.
Today the British embassy made pub
lic striking figures carefully compiled to
show the tremendous inroads the Ger
mans are making on the world's shipping.
This statement, President Wilson and his
"war cabinet" had before them yestcr
day at the long conference in the White
House. Most of that conference was de
voted, it was learned later, to the . ton
nage problem facing the world. And ap
parently it was agreed Hurley should
make a statement on the serious work
ahead of the United States including
employers as well as laborers.
Figures compiled by e cperts of the
allied nations show that since the war
began, the total Iosb in world tonnage,
due to enemy action and marine risk, is
11,827,572 gross tons, of which the loss
in 1917 was 6,723,623 tons.
As againBt this the total output of
world tonnage in the some period was
only 6,606,275 gross tons, the total for
1017 being 2,703,355 tons.
In addition to the later the total ene
my vesels captured since the war began
amounted to 2,580,000 gross tons.
The figures given out publicly for the
first time by the British admiralty,
"speak for themselves," it is stated. It
is no longer felt necessary to hide the
facts, it is explained.' On the subject of
losses, the admiralty "disclaim any de
Bire to prophesy about so uncertain a
thing as war in its submarine phase."
The result of the last year, shows the
ability of our seamen to get on terms
with the submarine menace and gradually
to gain the upper hand.
It would be incorrect, however, to as
sume, the admiralty warns, that losses
by submarines willScontjnue to decrease
or that production-of merchant Vessels
will continue to increase it is 'emphasised
that the publication at this time of the
real facts regarding the U-boat threat is
merely to insure the "vigorous co-operation,
of. all concerned "in boming build
ing" while science Is placing at our dis
posal means of offense and defense of
which we have been in need."
With both the American and English
production records for January sad
hampered by bad weather and
thef factors, the British .figures
today and the forthcoming Hurley state
ment sound an underlying note of serious
warning to shipyard managers and work
ers. The point where production balances
losses "will be postponed to a danger
ous extent" unless more speed is shown
all around. The British statement warns
frankly. And besides meeting the con

the past must be made up.
Great Britain is about to introduce
more uuskilled labor both male and fe
male to meet the need for constant ac
tion.
If employers heeiate to play their
part," said the British statement, "it
men anywhere Mown tools' or go slow
for any reason, they are pre
judicing the vital interests of the com
munity."
The Hurley statement will offset
much of the over advertising of Amer
ica's sbirVilldlng plnns.
The Inst two quarters of 1917 showed
a decline In ahip losses, over the second
quarter, but the engineers were higher
than for any - other period except the
fourth quarter of 1916. , .,
Allied and neutral losses in 1915 by
quarters were:
First, 320,447.
Second, 380,419.
Third, 520,481. (
. Fourth, 484,373.

In 1917 they- were:
First, 1,619.373.
Second, 2,230,834.
Third, 1,404,473.
Fourth, 1,272,843. '' .
No attempt was made to furnish the
economic loss involved, but it runs into
startling figures for it is frequently the
case that a cargo is worth more than
l,00O,O0O.
The allied and neutral shipbuilding
was shown thus:
1914- 1,012,920.

REGISTRAR EXPECTS
FEW NEW STUDENTS
Believes University Addition
Will Barely Even Up for Men
Who Leave.
New students for the third term.
which opens Monday, April 1,- will, in
the opinion of Registrar Tiffany, be just
about sufficient in number to keep regis
tration up to its present standard.
The number of withdrawals has ao far
not exceeded ordinary expectations, nor,
on the othor hand, has the advance dope
on new seekers for high education any
thing startling in it; there are no signs
of a mad rush this- way.
It must be. remembered, however, that
under the present system a' single term
of college work is very short, and that
the third term begins in April; and the
thoughts, of the young are warranted
to turn to almost anything under the sun
but math and chemistry and English
'comp' when the spring days come.
Tiffany Is Optimistic
Mr. Tiffany, howevor, feels extromely
optimistic over the fact that two new
students have already slipped fO apiece
over the marble counter to Comptroller
Johnson, and snys that should be quite
enough to bhcer anyone up this time of
year. Furthermore, he considers the,
signs of the times not nearly so drab
as they might be legitimately expected,
which, in tb king's English, means that
not nearly s many students are taking
out withdrawal cards as might.
Many Register Early.
Tuesday, which was si t aside as of
ficial registration day, saw Johnson hall
lined with students completing their
registration, practically all day, and
present indications are that the comp
troller shoveled in many a reluctant S
from anxious vacationers.
The big idea is that you have to pay
the $8 enyway why not do it now and
get to stay in your own home town a
day longer? Fees paid before Friday
will make it possible for students to
remain away until time for classes to
begin, on Tuesday, April 2. Otherwise
they must be paid Monday, April 1, and
to pass April fool's day op will cost
j'ou a joker, of Just $2, before you are
accorded the privilege of settling down
to classes.

W. W. Brlstow, former Oregon track
star, and a prominent Eugene business
man, will take over the work 'of "Bill"
Hayward, and try to get the Varsity
track men in condition for the spring
meets. This news was given ont at a
meeting of the tract men, held in the
gymnasium Monday evening.
The So or 40 men who attended the
meeting are all that have turned out for
track, as yet, and as they have been
able to accomplish little without the
aid of an experienced coach, they re
ceived the newa of Brlatow's appoint

"The meeting Monday was intended
.to get a little pep aroused among the
track and field men," said Dean Walker
yesterday, "and with the services of
Bristow we are sure going to have aonie
track team. Bristow Is donating his time
and experience to the fellows, and lie
deserve all the support that can be
given him."
Bristow volunteered his services when

give up active work on account of his
health. He is out every night with; the

The new coach is confident that he

he thinks that there ahould be about

put in their appearance. So far
this sesson the men have spent moat of
their time getting the kinks out of their
muscles, and, while there appears to be

like consistent point grabbers, and theio

Bristow wss a sprinter and broad
jumper of considerable note during his
college career. He worked under Hay
ward long enough to get well acquainted
with his method of putting the men in
condition for the spring meets. Bristow
has no national or northwest records
to his credit, but ho wss always a
stesdy plugger, and could be counted on
to do his best in every meet. He in
tends to instil this plugging spirit into
the men who are ont this year and, while
Oregon may not get a single first piece,
he intends to see that she gets all of

fessor of philosophy, conservative from
top to toe, a friend of the junkers and
of tho priests. He dares Ho doubt the
love of peace of the Russian proletariat,
and ao doing, he reveala his whole hy
pocrisy. The German chancellor knows
well thst the government of the Russian
laborer loves and wanta peace abovo all;
he alao knowa that thla government can
again lead the Russian people into war
if any danger should (threaten tho Bus
sian revolution.
"When he pretends to lie skeptical as
to the love of peace, of the Russian gov
ernment, he does to only to divert the
attention of tho Gorman people from the
fact thsit the German government offer
ed unacceptable terms of peace to the
Russisn revolution. Hertliug did not
mention a single one of our protests
against the German conditions. By no
single word did he speak of the indigna
tion which these peace propoaala called
forth In Russia.
"The Imperii chancellor wanted to
make the tame tpeech which alnce 1015,
every German chancellor has made. The
fundamental idea of these speeches is
this: The German empire, In the con
sciousness of its' power, proposes a 'Just'
peace to Ita enemies, but the wicked ene
mies refuse to conclude this peace and
this proves that the enemies are aolely
responsible for the prolongation of the
war. .
When formerly the German govern
ment spoke of the 'just' peace those who
followed the German policy knew at once
on how mendacious a foundation ' this
policy was based, but the German peo
ple in those dayt had confidence In Its
government and credited Its explana
tions. V" -'
"But now this fairy tale bat forever
lost Itt meaning, for lately when the
German peace terms were made known
they read!
'The people of Couriand, Lithuania
and Poland are to be made tlavea of the
German jankers; the' Russian nation
aanat pay war IndeaaKy, thus causing
this poor land to bear the whole burden
of German ImperltHsm.
If the German peace propoaala found
no echo among the astttet In France,
Itslv. and England, it was simply and
aolslr because these nations hsd long
ago teen through the shameful construc
tion the German government ia capanie
of putting on the sxpresaion 'a just
