The Impossible Comes.

Within year said the president,
eve have witnessed what We did not
think possible. a great European con-
flict involving many CT the greatest
nations Of t1e world. The influences
of the great war are everywhere in
the air. All Europe is in battle. Force
everywhere speaks out and from one
end of our own dear country to the
other men are asking one another what
our own force is, how far we are pre-
pared to maintain ourselves against
any interference With our national ac-
ton or development.
The president called upon men Of
ali shades of political opinion" to rally
to the support of the program. He said
it represented 'the best professional
and expert opinion of the country"
and gave warning that "if men differ
with me in this vital matter l shall
ask them to make. it clear now far and
in what way they are interested in
making the permanent interests of the
country safe against disturbance" E."

Generous and Courageous.

There is no need for the country to
feel panic stricken, the president de-
clared. because it stands in friendly
relations with the world. He spoke
of the United States as nation 100
big and generous to be exacting, but
yet courageous enough to defend its
rights.
Outlining the defense program, tae
president said it included an increase
in the standing army, the training
within the next three years OF
100000 citizen soldiers to be raised in
annual forces of $4,000, and the
Strengthening of the National Guard,
He laid particular emphasis on the
need of ample equipment.
The president declared that the
navy already is "a very great and ef-
fcient force" but that in order to bring
it to a point of extraordinary force
and efficiency definite policy must
be adopted.
In addition to speaking on national
defense, the president scored men
who love other countries better than
america and men who stir up re-
ligious and sectarian antagonism. 'e
He declared that such men should be
called to a reckoning.
Just before the dinner the president
shook hands with all the guests, in
cluding Charles F. Murphy.

GREEK CABINET, FAILS
TO GET VOTE OF CONFIDENCE
Fall OF Government Is Precipitated
by Dispute Over Proposed Mil
itary Laws.

Athens. Nov. 4 (yia London) After
its defeat in parliament today the cab
MET resigned.
The immediate cause of the defeat
was a remark made. BY War Minister
Yanakitsas, which was considered b.
Former Premier Venizelos as insulting
to the national assembly. M Xenizelos
demanded ali immediate apology.
Premier Zaimis thereupDn declared
the government stood behind the war
minister and demanded a vote of con-
fidence
A discussion Of proposed military
laws raised the question between the
minister of war, Gen. Yanakitsas> and
the majority party of Former Premier
Venizelos. On this issue Premier Zai-
mis- decided to ask a vote Of conf
dence.
The discussion then turned to the
foreign policy Of the government. M.
Venizelos declared it was impossible
for his party longer to sustain the
government whose policy ne consid-
cred harmful to the interests of the
country.
al the party leaders engaged in the
discussion. The final vote was 147
against the government to ia.
Premier Zamis has been in Office less
han a month, having been asked by
King Constantine to form cabinet
after the resignation OF Premier Ven
izelos on October 6. The retirement
of the Venizelos ministry grew out of
its policy in favor of entering the war
with Servia against Bulgaria, to do
which NJ. Venizelos maintained,
Greece was bound by her treaty obli-
cations. The king took the ground
that in the circumstances Greece was
not obliged to take up arms.
NJ Venizelos resigned the premier
ship in April owing to disagreement
with the king on similar question OF
foreign policy but won pronounced
victory in the general elections of
June and returned to Office in August.
His majority in parliament remained
intact after his retirement last month
and the Zaimis ministry was able to
maintain itself before parliament only
by the acquiescence of NJ. Venizelos.
In a speech on October 13 the former
premier said Greece should not allow
Bulgaria to crush Servia.

you rise cleanse the face with cold

followed by several applications OF cold

yourself quite rejuvenated.

DENY ANY HITCH
IN LOAN AGREEMENT
New York Bankers Inclined To Believe
That Rate of Interest Must Be
Increased

New York, Sept, 24--In disposing of
reports current in Wall street to the ef-
| feet that there had been friction be-
tween American financiers and members
of the Anglo French financial commits
sion, who are in this country to estab-
lisa a big credit loan TO Great Britain
and France, the commission issued an
official statement yesterday denying that
such was the case
| Under the caption Reported Friction
Between the Commission and American
Bankers" the statement read as follows:
"The commission wishes to deny en-
! phatically that there has been friction.
The report that there had been is not
500
Meetings between American bankers
and the commission were continued yes
terday. Men in close touch with the
negotiations said that they thought Off
cial announcement as TO the progress of
negotiations would be forthcoming in
about a week.
The six members of the commission
continued yesterday their deliberations
over the loan in the hope of concluding
this week their conversations with Amer
lean fnanciers. The CELEBRITY with which
negotiations had proceeded toward this
goal apparently had been checked on
Wednesday. With the commission meet
ing in continuous session from 10 a. m.
till early Thursday, and with their
American associates declining to COM
ment on the situation, Wall street fell
to theorizing as to whether there had
been hitch in negotiations and, if SO,
Upon what points.
For the first time since the negotia-
tions began, certain American bankers
were inclined to doubt whether the loan
would exceed S500.000,000. These bank
ers failed also to share the commissions
reported opinion that the big issue
would be eagerly taken by American in
yestors at 5 per cent interest rate. In
some quarters there was a growing de-
mand that the rate be made 5Ra per
cent, or that the bonds be offered to in
vestors at less than par in order that
they might be placed on the same at
tractive plane as certain high class rail
road and industrial domestic bonds.
The proposal that the interest rate be
fixed at per cent, it was said yester
day, was the commissions suggestion
and had been firmly adhered to in the
face of many attempts by some Amer
lean bankers to have the rate increased
Another matter upon which much was
believed to depend was whether Russia
would participate in the loan. No au-
thentic word as to this had been forth
coming up TO the present.

FAVORED PLAN WHEN

Ready to Report

Roanoke, Va, Sept. Ex-senator John
w. Kern of Indiana, who is staying at
his country home near here, issued a
statement yesterday declaring that when
the Senate adjourned last spring he
strongly favored the calling Of special
session of the Senate, but that he now
doubted the wisdom of such a step IN
view of the European situation. 1T
was my belief, said the senator, that
the Senate rules should be amended be-
fore the regular session; so there would
be no delay in the Senate's business lat
er. was of the opinion that an extra
session could be called in October. How
ever, since the European war situation
has become so acute, | am doubtful OF
the expediency of an extra session. |
think if the war situation is at all com
plicated it is doubtful whether we should
hold one" Senator Kern added that
the committee he appointed last spring
to revise the Senate rules, OF which SEN
ator Owen of Oklahoma is chairman,
should be ready to report by this time.
