RESIGNING PROFESSOR RAPS TRUSTEES OF UNIVERSITY XKU' YOHK. Oct. fi.- ('hales A Hoard, professor of politics at Colum bia university, .resinned from the faculty today. In a loiter to 1'resi dent llutler, ho declared It was be cause the university "was, really un der tho control of a small and active i;rtiup of trustees, who have no st.md tiiK In the world of education, who nro reaclionary and vlslonloss lu pel Itlcs; narrow In rolitrlon." "If. these were ordinary tl.ncs,' Prof. Heard wrote, "one minhl more readily Imiore the unhappy position In which the dominant Ki'oup in Ihe botird of trustees has placed the toucher", but these are not ordinary : Ilium, Wo nro lu the midst or a Brent war and wo stand on the thi'Odhold or ait era which will call for all the einanclpalrd thinking that Amoricn run command." WKIl Medford trado U Modtord mad THE SECOND TTIR United Ktates goveniinpnt litis hrgun its energetic eniiiptiign to f'loat'tlio seeond of the Itlierty loans necessary tn make this country effective in the world war. The specific goal is three billion dollars, but it is hoped the subscriptions will far exceed this, and that the subscrib ers will total one-tenth the population. The loan should appeal to every man, woman nnd yes, to every child in the land, 1 1 is not enough to say that one has subscribed to the first loan.' The loyal American should subscribe for every loan if possible. And in many cases it will be possible, by dint of economy. 'Die second liberty loan has got to be a success. Every liberty loan lias got to be a success. If the nation can't float its loans, the money will have to be secured in other and more drastic ways, and this would unsettle the entire economic, financial and industrial fabric of the country. lint there is something else, too, quite as important: A failure on the part of this fabulously rich country to over subscribe each of its war loans would be worse than a dozen failures in a dozen gigantic offensives in France or Flanders. It would be a sign to Germany that all her ol lenses had failed to arouse The Germans would sav, Americans condoned the Lusitania assassinations; that we cared nothing about attacks upon ships flving the Ameri can flag; that we were indifferent about the proved Ger manic plots to blow up our factories. More they would say, with every sign of truth, that the people were not sup port mg their government; that the people were pro-peace and even pro-German. Thef ailure, or near-failure, of any of our liberty loans would do more than a dozen victories to ginger up the waning morale ot the Uerman armies and people. To the soldiers in the trenches, , weary of the war and hopeless of success against the allies, the message would e 11 l t t I A 1 i l Till 1 rm a go loriti: --Jioiu out vet a are not coining into this war with their full power." To the people back home, cold nnd hungry, and pray ing for peace, the kaiserists would say: "Endure yet. a little while and crushing victory will be ours. The Ameri cans nre not coming." Is'o American with red blood, no American who believes in democracy and freedom, can afford to let any such message go back to Germany. We are sending our best bovs to France. It is up to us to stand back of them with all we have of money and supplies. lliey are there to It is our part to see them thru are betraying them. The American people have unbelievable that thev will be is every reason to believe they will make of this second liberty loan a tremendous success. It can. only be such a success if every man, woman and ciiiid maices it ins or ner personal nusiness to help, it can onlv be such a success if the scribed, and if those proffering nunilier ol people ol modest means. Such a loan would bear to the German rulers in unmis takable tones the news that the American people en masse were backing their government with blood and gold to remove forever the teriible menace of Prussian crime.

At the time of tho latest reports they had again pushed forward. The latest meager report says the Germans are counter attacking beav. Hy astride the Vpres-ltoulers rail way. The British were sending back largo numbers of prisoners at an early hour. The combined attack of the French and British met with great success In the first few hours .of fighting. It is reported the British have achieved success In a small operation in the region of Routel and Polder hoek. ' Assoclatoxl Press Summary Without regard to the highly un favorable weather conditions prevail ing and in a surprisingly short time after the successful British thrust of last week, the British and French forcos in Belgium have launched an other heavy attack on the German lines. The blow fell early today in tho region east and northeast of Ypres, where Crown Prince Rupprechts' lines had already been dangerously bent hack by the previous British thrust. The British commander early re ported satisfactory progress on all parts of the front of the attack which he announced was made in conjunc tion "with onr allies on our left." French Co-operut!nK. Shortly afterwards tho Paris offi clal statement lndlcatod clearly that the French forcos In Flanders were thoso alluded to by the British com mander in chief. The launching of an attack in coifcert with the Brit ish was announced and the favor able development of the attack re ported. A considerable force of French troops took part in the beginning of the Flanders drive on July 31 and in the subsequent fighting that consol idated the ground won by them from a point northeast of Langemarck as far north as Dixmudo. This section of the front remained comparatively quiet while the Brit ish to the south were renewing their drive last month. Apparently the time Is now considered opportune for bringing the line to the north more nearly on the level with the advanc ed British front. Tho French attack today extended as fur to tho north as lloutholst forets, about five miles townrd the coast from Bixschoote. TMvo Toward Railroad. It has heen pointed out that with tho salient parts of the Passchen-dnele-Ciholuvelt ridge in their hands, as tho result of their success last week, tho British wero In admirable position to push further eats towards the Mcnln-ltoiilers railway line. This invaluable line of communication for tho Oormnus between their bases In southwestern Belgium and northern France and their Belgian coast po sitions was already commanded by tho British guns. Tho renewed push is In the direc tion of this lino which before this morning's attack bet;an was about five and one-hnlf miles distant from tho point of tho British wedge at Broodselutlo. Numerous indications hnve been found, according to reports from the Klunders front, that the Oormnn nior alo In this sector had notably deter iorated under the crushing attacks of tho past few days.

Chancellor Mit huelis in un address to the reieh- stni; inuin committee yesterday, nst reported in Berlin dispatches, replied to the chnrg-e that officials had un ilcrtnken propuftantln for the new fill hci land party which is currying on n movement ill fuvor of n "Oennan pence.'' The chancellor laid down the principle, which applies to Prus siun officials ns well ns those con nected with the impcrinl (rovernment, that all nre free in their political opinion nnd nre permitted to belon; to any pnrty so lonir ns tho ompire is not endangered thereby. In their political activities officials should observe reticence, so that the public mny not lose faith in their ini- pnrtiulity. To force or induce suh ordinntcH to adopt an attitude in fn- vor of any pnrtv, the chancellor con tinned, would he to nbusc offieiul positions. This will not he permit ted, tho chancellor said, nnd obedi ence to this principle will he enforced in eases brought to his attention. After the chancellor's speech the committee adopted a supplementary budget for tho offieo of vice-chancel lor, only the social democrats voting against it. T WASHINGTON, Oct. ft Adminis tration of tile trailing with tho enemy law was one of the 'irineipnl subjects for consideration at today's cabinet meeting, and intlicntions were that the president's proclamation distrib uting authority under the net among various government tlepurtinents might not be issued for several days.
