COMPLETING PRIZE LIST
Awards in Children's Exhibit to be

Compilation of the prizes offered in

Encouragement due to the fact that
exhibits were entered for which no
prizes were offered and prizes were
provided for entries for which there
were no exhibits, had not been COM

A. Kibbe expects to finish it within
the next day or two.
In some cases, too, prizes suitable
for boys were offered for entries in
which girls won and this required
further Encouragement Of the list,
while the essays were sent to Super

entered articles in the exhibit that
they want to save may obtain them
by calling at his office.

FOREIGN NATIONS ARRANGING
CREDIT LOANS FOR VAST
PURCHASES IN UNIT
ED STATES

WASHINGTON, November g.
Viewing credit loans to belligerent
countries as private transactions. the
Washington administration will not
attempt to interpose its influence
against such transactions on the part
of the American bankers.
This has been learned on the
highest authority, after it became
known that German financiers were
contemplating the establishment of a
credit loan in this country, similar to
the $10,00O,0O0 credit fund just ne
gotiated by the National City bank
of New York City and other bankers
for the French government.
The decision of the Washingto.
administration may lead to the pur-
chase in the United States of abou:
100000 worth of supplies by
Russia and an equal, if not greater
amount by Germany. Details of tn,
expected transactions are lacking
here.
Presidents Stand Unchanged
High officials of the Washington
administration insist that President
Wilson has not changed his view, an.
nounced at the outbreak of the war,
that the loaning of money to belliger-
ents would be Inconsistent with the
true spirit of American neutrality
A distinction was drawn by Off
Gals, however, between the loans re-
ferred to at that timo-such as bond
issues offered for public sale-and
credit transactions intended as a
checking account against the pur-
chase by pelligerents of foodstuffs and
supplies from American firms.
" No Legal Right.
The president realizes that this
government has no legal right to op-
pose loans of any character, nor is
there any obligation of international
law forbidding them. During the
Russo-Japanese war loans were float
ed for Japan in the United States
through public bond issues. The
president is understood, however, to
be opposed to that form of loan as
liable to stir up i'll feeling and pre-
judice.
Under what is known as credit
loans, there is no intention, it is un.
derstood, to export any gold from the
United States.
Large funds will be established by
the belligerent countries with their
financial agents here, who viii. pay
the bills Of the European nations to
American dealers in munitions Of
war and supplies. The bankers will
be given short-time notes by the bel.
ligerent governments, with a i:uch
better rate of interest, it is said, than
ordinarily could be obtained. In re-
turn for these considerations Euro
pean governments will agree to spend
large sums of money in the United
States for supplies. Chicago bankers
who are taking part in the negotia-
tons of some of the belligerent ma
tons of Europe for supplies in this
country say purchases for cash have
reached large volume and there is
every reason to believe the demand
ers it was learned that there is on
deposit in the United States not less
than $50,0O0,000 of private German
capital, much of which was sent here
as a precautionary measure in the
early days of the war.

road, where the county again takes
charge and spreads and rolls 1t. The
county also does the grading and roll

structed of concrete which will last
an indefinite time without repairs.
