National Guard that all employees Of
the bank who are members OF the State
militia win in future receive leave OF

porationS which have announced that

who undertake military service
THE Lincoln National Bank In very
effective manner has contributed to tho
preparation which the troops are now
undergoing" said Gen. ORyan. 'In the
past the National Guard has been
greatly handicapped, not by the antag.

OF employers. Those not in the military
service can he OF distinct aid to that
service and to the country by making
easier the lot of those actually per-
forming military service. The best

This was one OF the MANY notes made

alton Is pronounced hopeless. Dut there
are as yet no signs that President Will
son has made UP his mind TO take any
drastic action. The situation IL even
worse than IL was n year ago, when the
Administration had under consideration
proposals for strong measures In Hayti
which would end revolutions and restore
law and order.
The Government at tho time was
under some pressure from Germany. but
the war In Europe convinced officials
here that there would be no further
anxiety about Hayti from that quarter.
In recent months. however. the French
and German Governments have renewed
interest In Haytian affairs and have not
waited for the United States to lead the
way.
The present Government headed by
Guillaume Sam, which the United States
refused TO recognize. has been recognized
by the French and German Governments
and has been also supplied with money
by European business interests in Hayti.
A recent report to the state Department
stated that the Government would be
penniless within two months and that
its collapse seemed certain.
All efforts OF the United States under
Mr.. Bryan's direction TO persuade the
Haytians to accept the aid of this Gov.
ernment have been rejected. The Hay
tlans have even spread the rumor that
the United States was about to enslayc
the people.
officials here are satisfied that nothing
less than intervention by the United
states with the establishment of
stable Government. rehabilitation of
Haytiau finances and creation OF an
adequate c0nstabulary Or similar force
will suffice TO make Hayti a region In
which foreigners can live in safety and
commerce can be conducted under nor
