Parie, June 19th-There is direct autho-
rity for saying that very stern and strong
measures are to be taken almost immediately
by the Allies in Greece. Should the Greek
Government not comply with the Allies de-
mands, the measures will be drastic. The
measures decided upon after complete aere,-
ment by the French and British Governments
were planned recently when NJ. BRAND was
in London. A message from Salonica says
the situation at Athens is very unsatisfactory
from the point of view of the Allies. No
solution is in sight. The Rehabilitation of
the Greek forces is not a fact and the Skou-
loudis Government is maintaining a defiant
attitude.
Paris, June 19ih-The Economic Confer.
ence Of the Entente Allies before adiournino
Oh Saturday adopted unanimously resolutions
which it was decided to make public next
Wednesday in the Allied countries, Baron
de Broqueville, the Belgian Premier, in his
closing address declared the purpose of the
Conference had beeu entirely realized. The
immediate collaboration for which a basis
has been formulated, marked the opening OF
a new era, he said. 1t was a profound error,
he said, to admit that the Conference had
b. en- working for war while in truth it was a
preservative and beneficial union against war.
Liberty, honesty and justice would be safe
guarded, he asserteG and the Conference
ignored any other motive. The decision
taken was a new gauge of continuity, said
the Baron, which words were formally ap-
proved by all the delegates.
Petrograd, june 19-The Russians took

WILL HEAR GERMANY.

Washington, Dec. 14.-Arrival of both the German and Aus trian peace notes and broad in- timationS at the entente allied em mbaSSieS that the proposals of the central powers would not be fiatly rejected without examina- tiou were the outstanding deve- lopmentS here today in the peace move.
 Germany'S note, substantially the same as the published texts, arrived by cable in the early hours of the morning, and just as the state department was closing for the day, Austria's note arrived. Secretary Lansing said it was identical with Ger many's and that neither contain ed any change in meaning from the semi official versions.
 It was stated officially that neither Germauy's nor Austria's note would be forwarded before tomorrow, if indeed then, and there was no indication that the president had made up his mind what action, if any, he would take in transmitting the central powers proposals to the entente belligerents.
 With the announcement of the German proposals two days ago, it appeared that the entente allies were inclined to reject the offer flatly and it appeared very doubtful if President Wilson could find way to add word of mediation in transmitting the notes. With the apparent mo- derating of that first attitude, as reflected in the British news papers and among the entente allied diplomats here, the way seems easier for the president to express in some way the hope of the United States that the pro- posal for discussion of peace will not be rejected without con- sideration.
 In such step there is a likeli- hood of the United States being supported by some of the Euro pean neutrals. The minister of one of them today asked his government to authorize him to assure the president of endorse ment in such a move, and it is believed others are considering the same phase of the situation.

The SCHOOL ELECTION

When order is called tomorrow after
noon at the school meeting, held for
the purpose of voting on s45. 900 bond
issue, 30 much thereof as necessary to
be sold by the school board. to obtain 9
fund for the construction of new school
buildings, no single qualified elec.or
should be absent without good ex-
cuse. Local school meetings in the
past have not created the attention and
interest that should be forthcoming
from the progressive citizenship of
Hood River. We can recall meetings
when only the members Of the school
board we're present. Tomorrow meet
ing should be well attended.
The Glacier has refrained from max.
ing recommendations in the matter of
the bond issue. But we do urge every
taxpayer to give the matter the most
careful consideration. II you believe
the proposed movement one of extrava-
gance vote against it. IL you think it
economy vote for it. But do not re-
main Indifferent and stay away from
the polls. Let the decision of tomorrow
afternoon be a representative one.
You owe this much to the school board,
the members of which have put In
many days of conscientious work in
your behalf.

BLOSSOM AND GOOD
ROADS DAYS SET

At a meeting of the directors of the
Commercial club Monday afternoon.
next Friday, May 5. was set as the
official date of Blossom day in the Ap-
pie Valley. Orchardists declare that
from present indications the thousands
of acres of apple trees will be at the
height of their beauty on that day.
To prepare the Columbia river high
way for the numerous automobiles ex-
pected> from Portland and Willamette
valley points on Blossom day, Good
Roads day will be observed next Tues
day, when club members will journey
by automobiles over the road, each
worker armed with rake. Every
loose stone between here and Cascade
Locks will be raked out of the right of
way and every chuckhole will be filed
by the highway enthusiasts.
Every man who can furnish a car
and every man who will work the
highway on Tuesday is asked to assem-.

Funds for Highway Possible

Since Wasco county, which had been
promised the sum of $45, 900 for i'm
provement of the Columbia river high
way between Mosier and the Hood
River county line, provided a bond is-
sue were voted in the neighboring
county. has failed to take any steps
toward bond election, a reapportion-
ment of the State Highway fund will
probably result. HOOD River has asked
through Leslie Butler, who was in ses-
sion with the Highway Commission
Monday. for $33, 900 for improvement
of the road west Of the city and es-
pecially at Ruthton hill. 1t is likely
that the money will be granted as the
board is reported favorable to the ap-
portionment.
Mr.. Butler was accompanied to Sa-
lem by W. l., Clark and c. N. Ravlin.

Wenatchee Peach Trees Doe Up

Disguised at the returns on peaches
during the last four years many grow.
ers of Wenatchee are uprooting their
trees. All through the valley, particu-
larly in the East Wenatchee section,
peachssorchards are beingstaken out and
either reset with apple trees or planted
with alfalfa.
The: prices received for peaches have
been so low that they have usually
been harvested at an actual loss.
