Alexander Williams Speaks in Interests of Science Contes
American Chemical Society Interested in Promoting Public Knowledge
Alexander Williams, Jr., of New York city, who is speaking at 365 Chemistry building at 4:30 today, is secretary of the prize essay committee. The committee is conducting an essay contest throughout the country. Mr. Williamn is going about grousing an interest on the part of students, not knowing about to Dr. Ray Q. Brewner, professor of chemistry.
Mr. Brocaster feels it is not surprising that a man like Gargoyn, who has made a large amount of money through his interests in modern chemistry, should desire to further public interest in the science.
The prize essay contest is conducted by the Americas Chemical Society, which is the largest scientific organization in the world, having tens of thousands of subscribers. The purpose of the contest is to promote public knowledge of what the science of chemistry is doing for our modern civilization and is made possible through the generosity of G. Garvin, a New York capitalist.
In an interview this morning, Mr Brewster said, "Modern chemistry has made an immense am-unt of money for this world. A few years ago Iago had a project which are now being utilized in various ways." He cited the coat and cotton seed industries as illustrating his statement. Mr Brewster said, "Twenty-five years a coat tar was thrown away; now it is to make drys, medicinal products, yarns, textiles and munitions of war. A few years a cotton seed was a curse to the country; we couldn't do anything but bury it. Now it is used for cotton seed oil, for making soap, Snowdrop, Crispo and many other chemicals, which then left it made into cattle feed."

J. W. Weeks May Retire
John J. Pershing Possible New War Secretary
Washington, Nov. 17.—General John J. Pershing has been urged upon by President Cooleid for appointment as Secretary of War in the war of 1862. A report reported intention to retire from the cabinet, it was learned today.
Pershing's friends put him forward as the logical successor to Week's because of his unequalled grasp of the duties of the office and because it was felt that appointment would be a fitting reward for his war services.
The now retired general of the army has let it be known he would accept the post if it was proffered him.
Suppliers of General Pershing for the post, point out that it is the one way he can be given an opportunity to complete the national defense plan which he labored upon until he came back from France and his retirement.
Appointment of General Perching would not be in violation of precedents in spite of the long observed rule that a civilian should head the war department. General Grant and General Sherman each served as Secretary of War, Grant in 1867 and Sherman in 1869.
Pershing's friends are also quick to point out that General Pershing recently retired, while still in perfect health.
Washington, Nov. 17—The United States Supreme Court ruled today that ex-service men cannot sue the United States to recover compensation when the withholding of the pay does not appear an reasonable.

More than two thousand gallons of water a second has been diverted into the Owens river further down, which is spreading out over the sun-bake bank. Los Angeles estimates the water at $1000 per day.
The raiders were digging in today apparently ready to stand a long siege. Tents were erected at the gates and the semblance of military organization was maintained, with the band divided into sections, one standing guard while the other section slept.
Among them moved Sheriff Collin, who was received courteously; his plans listened to, but answered only with silence. He took the names of each man in the party. Seventy per cent of the men are ranchers. The other half are farmers and towns. Three are bankers. All feel they have a common cause.
