Nations Appeal to World.

Examining the present war with this
object in mind. we can already see
signs of very great progress in the
DEVELOPMENT of the science. II we are
70 believe the published documents of
the different governments we fnd most
of the European powers proposing and
urging a recourse to The Hague tri-
bunal, or to an informal conference of
interested powers, to avoid war, and
when war was not prevented in this
way we find every belligerent govern
ment, without exception, publishing Its
reasons LAYING the documents in Its
ease before the world al large and ap-
pealing to public opinion in all quarters
OF the globe to Justify its actions. Such
an appeal. on such a large scale, has
never before been made, and We are
justified in the belief that the public
opinion of mankind-which is the great.

uized even by monarchs not supposed
to be responsible to popular approval
for their actions.
We find again that the greatest bur-
ten that some of the belligerents have

that they have violated treaties and dis
regarded the rules of international law.
1t is curious to note in this connection
that the country against which this
charge is most frequently and violently
made. had not. up to few years ago.

system exclusively devoted to the teach

The congress of Westphalia, which
ended the thirty years war, marks an
epoch in international relations, and it
may well be that the peace which ends
the present unfortunate war. and the
means taken to prevent the violation of
its terms, will likewise mark new era
in international relations. II interna-
tional law. in the sense in which We uIl-
derstand it. entered into the practice of
I.ations with the peace of Westphalia, the
enforcement of international law may
date from the peace which We hope may
not be long deferred.
1T is. therefore. the well considered
judgment Of the director that the Euro
pean war will make it necessary, when
the war Is over, that the work Of the
division Of international law shall be

German View Of Loan.

BERLIN, September "a. by wireless
tc Sayville, n. Y.-The Overseas News
Agency says today:
"A committee representing a COM
binat ation of the largest Industrial asso-
Citations has published a statement
dealing with reports from New York
that banks which have London con-
INJECTIONS with German houses intend
to participate in the Anglo-French
loan which is being raised in the
United States.
'The statement says there is no room
for doubt that German industrial and
mercantile circles would regard direct
or indirect participation in the loan as
Intentional support of our enemy. 1t
states that 1t is the natural and hon.
orable duty of German firms doing an
American business to break off all con-
nections with the loan.

mark that the English papers again
mention Kuhn. Loeb & Co. of New York
as inclined to participate in the loan.'

Voice Protest Against Loan.

a protest against the proposed An
Slo-French loan was sent to President
Wilson, the treasurer of the state of
New York. the state banking depart
ment and the mayor, controller and
chamberlain of New York city today by
the American Truth Society. The pro-
test WAS expressed by resolutions
adopted last night at the first of Sc
ries of mass meetings held for the
avowed purpose of blocking the loan.
The meeting was under the auspices
of the American Truth Society. AL
phonse G. Koelble, president of the
German-American Alliance of New
York. was one of the speakers.
The resolutions characterize the pro-
posed loan as 'unsound. hazardous and
improvident, subversive to the interests
of depositors and corruptive of the
purpose of our federal banking laws"

Russia Out of New Reckoning and
Must Establish Her Credit by
Independent Arrangement.

NEW YORK, September 24.-Both
parties to the proposed big credit loan
to Great Britain and France were re-
ported to be negotiating today on the
basis of s500,000,000 as the maximum
amount.
The Anglo French commission. it was
said. was still inclined to insist that
the loan should be greater than this
amount; American financiers were re-
ported to have informed the commits
sion pointedly that this sum would
not be exceeded.

the loan should be greater than this
amount: American financiers were re-

sion pointedly that this sum would

Russia Out Of Negotiations.
Russia appeared to be out of nego-
tiations as participant. If it should
appear necessary that she, too. estab-
lish credit here it seemed likely that
Independent arrangements would have
to be made for her. Final decision on
this point. however, was said to be de-
ferred until such time as definite word
should reach New York from Pierre L.
Bark, at present believed to be in Lon
don comforting with Reginald Nc
kenna. chancellor of the excheQuer.
Originally 1t was suggested that Rus
sia be included in the plans for estab-
fishing the American credit.
The reported positive stand of Amer
lean fnancierS to lend no more than
$500, 100000 was said to have played a
leading factor in the virtual decision
not to include Russia as a. participant
With Russia in, it was said, the need
would be for more than a half billion
dollars.
Satisfactory Progress Reported.
On behalf of both parties to negotia-
tions, it was said today that matters
were progressing smoothly and satis-
factorily. The commission and its
American associates were said to be
drawing near an agreement again, and
an announcement stating that a definite
plan had been agreed upon was expect
ed within few days. But for the va
rance in views as to the size of the
n
be OF minor nature, it was thought
that such an announcement would have
been issued last Wednesday. 1t is the
reported plan of the commission, when
an agreement is reached, to conduct
negotiations with few big banking
houses in this city as representatives of
the American bankers in general. Here
tofore the negotiations have been char
acterized as conversations
Formal negotiations, in the British
definition of the term, will not be OPEN

have been reached.

During the winter most persons eat
considerable heavy food; even more
meat, fats, bread and potatoes than the
cold weather requires. As the winter
draws to close it finds the body more
or less overloaded with food poisons
from unused food. and the vital organs
more or less ovsrworked a. result of
handling the heavy diet needed in cold
weather. Furthermore, as warm
weather takes tho place Of cold weather
many people fail to leave of their win
ter diet, but continue it over into the
spring months when the warm weather
makes It impossible for the body to
burn up the heavy food necessary to
keep warm during the winter. Thus
overeating during the winter and
winter diet in spring fills the body with
food poisons and overworks the vital
organs when they should be having
spring half-holiday. In this way ID

rsctly most Of our spring disorders,
