Germans Want Indorsement.
The German delegates evidently
hope to secure indorsement of the
Gorman Assembly on every step they
take. It was learned that the Ger
man delegates expect speedy action
ind will not attempt to debate a
length. At the same time, it was in
timated that if the actual peace terms
ppear extremely hard, the (;--mmn}
Government probably will earry into
effect the threat to refer the terms to
the peopie and decide by popuiar voge
whether they shall be accepted or re
jected. It Js unlikely, however, that
the Allies would grant sufficient time
for such action,
The Allied and assoctated govern
ments are growing more and more
tdetermined to Insist upon immediate
acceptance of the treaty. If the Ger
mans refuse, the armistice wiil be de
clared null and void and the armies
will assume the initiative to compel
acceptance,
The plenary session of the eonfer
ence on Monday will be devoted not
only to the league of nations eov
enant, but to the clearing up of vart
ous clanses of the treaty. It is possi
ble that the session may last several
days, followed by an executive ses
sion at which the treaty will be con
sidered in its entirety. The Italians
were invited, but failed to intimate
whether they would have a repre
sentative present.
In official circles it is now learned
that Premier Orlando did not carry
any definite proposal from the “big
three” to Rome for a compromise
agreement.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-—More
than $650,000000 is known to have
been subscribed to the Vietory Loan
during the five days of the campalgn,
it was announced at the Treasury
Department today. This is practi-)
cally one-seventh of the amount be
ing sought.
The figures announced today were

many of the Federal reserve districts,
and officials pointed out that the ac
tual total probably is much larger.
The Cleveland district reports un
officially today that it had soid $119,-
355,000. This was an advance of
about $77,000,000 over its latest offi
cial report. In this distriet 145 com

;pondln‘ stage of the Fourth Liberty
Loan.
Columbus and Toledo both expected
to attain their quotas before the cloge

Enormous oversubscriptions still are
being reported from Michigan and
Towa. |
The Kansas City District reported a
“slow but consistent” campalgn. Okla

Oklahoma City already has exceeded
‘ts quota. The tank, which plowed
twelve miles up Pike's Peak to ad
vertise the loan recently, will on
Sunday elimb Lookout Mountain at

late Colonel William ¥. Cody (Buffale

G. A. Wait, chairman of the Sioux

merely by permitting persons te go
to the voting precinet headquarters
and subscribe what they thought to be
their fair share of the loan.
An oversubscription of $300,000 was
recorded in the first twelve hours,
making the third time Sioux City has
gone over the top in a single day.
Oregon is leading the States of the

McCord Defends
Vietory Loan |
| AMERICUS, April 26— Amerfeus
ihuulneas men yesterday heard Joseph
A. McCord, chairman of the board of
directors of the Federal Reserve Bank
at Atlanta, defend the Victory Liberty
L.oan and refute criticisms of the
manner in which the Government
spent money during the war,
Mr. McCord, who stopped over here
for a few hours en route to lorida,
wis the guest at luncheon of George
R. Ellis, chairman of the Sumter
County Victory Hond campaign com
lmm«‘. and the 30 business men whe
met him all heartily approved his re
marks.
Referring to the complaint of many
people that the Government had
wasted money derived from previous
loans, Mr. McCord said:
“l grant you that money has been
spent freely and lavishly—even reck
lessly, we might say. But I want to
ask you, when it comes to a question
of pouring out the life blood of our
boys in Filanders or in pouring out
money, if it is not a thousand t¥nes
better to have poured out our
money ?"”
Continuing, Mr, McCord sald that a
splendid public policy is invoived in
securing the widest possible circula
tion of Victory Bonds. “Before the
war began,” he said, “there were only
229,000 Government bond owners in
America, and at the close of the
Fourth Loan there were 22,000,000
bond holders. This has improved our
citizenship, for money-saving makes
good citizenship and provides the

WASHINGTON, April 26.—The
fate of Poland now depends on the
final disposition of Danzlg, the u-‘
clent Polish seaport, by the pm‘
conference, according to a ttatomonti
today by John F. Smulski, president
of the National Pelish Department of
America. |
“If Danzig is allowed to remain in
German hands, or even if it 1s inter
nationalized, as has been proposed,
Poland will become a weak, interior
state, dependent on Germany for its
economic existence,” said Smulski. “It
is In recognition of this situation s {
on Sunday mare than 3,000,000 Pelish
people throughout the United States
will meet to pray and petition that
the Pelish claims be allowed.
- "It is not oniy for Poland they are
asking, but for the peace of the
world. Poland desires not only to be
free, but to be a strong arm in the
preservation of peace of mankind. If
the peace conference leaves Poland
with its rail and,water connection
with the friendly nations wholly in
German control, the task of sustain
ing life and order will consume all
of Poland’s energy “
Smulski pointed out that Dansig
was taken from Poland at the time
of the first partition, and that the
German population in Danzig is
thereby reason of deliberate coloni
zation by the Germans, supported by
the Government and the expatriation
of the Poles.
“If these methods are to be consid
ered as confirming title to stolen
property, real peace and justice are
far removed,” Smulski asserted. ‘

Take notice, citizens, both men and

of eleotion, but United States taxes and
bonds must be met. Your goverument
is in the market to borrow some bil
lions of coin. Yes, your “Uncle Sam'™
is a borrower, using his credit to meet
the cost of war and governmenta] ad
ministration. And that's the way ALIL
the big business of the warld is done
—on' CREDIT. Big and little business
houses operate on credit. Rich -and
poor families buy and furnish the homes
they live in on CREDIT, taking time
to pay for household furnishings as
well as fer the house and lot. Here
it is almost summer and you haven't
bought those new curtains and dra
peries yet, Nor the rug you need. Nor
suitable new bed covering for sprlmi
and summer. And you never got tha
set of silverware which you so greatly
desire for your table. Why not? Your
credit is good. Any of these articles
may be purchased from Home Art Sups
yly Co. on the easiest terms, just 25e
o $1 a week on each item, H-A-S-
