U. S. MAY FIGHT
GERMANY ALONE

CHICAGO, May 18-Declaring that
should Germany be successful in the
world war and dominate all Europe
the issue then would be reduced to
war between Germany and the
United States, William G. McAdoo,
secretary OF the treasury, said that
prompt financial assistance to the al
lies might gain for them decisive vic
tory before American soldiers would
be sent to France.
The occasion of McAdoo's statement
was a speech before bankers, finan-
ciers and businessmen of Chicago. in
which he opened his western cam
paign In behalf of the liberty loan.
The secretary arrived at noone and
was entertained at luncheon by the
Chicago club. A delegation OF Min
neaDolis and st. Paul citizens met him
here and accompanied him after his
speech to the northwest.
McAdoo asserted that the slowness
OF country people to understand that
the United States was engaged in the
most colossal war of history was tc
be regarded as a serious defect Of
democracy as they could only be
aroused after some great disaster.
! Every man and woman who buys
liberty bonds. according to the secre
tary, will contribute in the most i'm
mediate and directly helpful way t
bring the war to a quick conclusion.

INVESTIGATING
TREATY RIGHTS
Congressman Writes Tuck
er Relative To Joint
Resolution

County Auditor w. r. Tucker who
stopped long enough during his
working hours in connection with the
recent draft exemptions to roast
some foreigner who would place a
claim for exemption from military
duty on the ground that he was a
foreigner, feels that he has been
repaid for his remarks.
The auditor, who is clerk OF the
local draft exemption board. has re-
ceived information from a congress
man that the friendly aliens ques-
ton has gone to the foreign rela-
tons committee for investigation
during the adjournment OF congress,
during which time treaty relations
win be studied between neutral coun-
tries and those allied with the Unit
ed States in the world war.
The congressman advises Auditor
Tucker that If the matter is report
ed out favorably. congress will
pass the joint resolution adopted
early in October. This resolution
provides that all aliens. Germans OK
cIuded, who have been in the United
States for a period covering one
year, will be given 80 days to leave
the United States and return to their
native land upon refusing to join the
Yankee colors when called by draft
