FARM AND ARM!"
T. RS BATTLE CRY
Colonel Applauded When He Tells Au-
dience Grain Must Not Be Wasted
in Intoxicants.

Chicago, April 30.-"Farm and srml"
With this battle cry Theodore Roosevelt
entered Chicago Saturday and in two
stirring addresses urged that every en-
ergy of the entire nation be directed to-
ward making the potential might of the
United States felt in the war against
Germany. He demanded that not an hour
be lost in dispatching troops to the
trenches. His first speech was made at
luncheon at noon; his second Saturday
night at mass meeting in the immense
amphitheatre at the stockyards, where
ten thousand who applauded his words
were numerically exceeded by the hordes
turned away in disappointment when it
became necessary to close the doors.
Colonel Roosevelt advocated universal
training as a permanent policy; he ad-
vocated CONSUMPTION, but he pleaded that
he should BE- allowed to reerliJ a division
for immediate service With the allies. be
VAS roundly applauded wien he urgea
that during the war the use of grain for

bic moment to show our allies that we
are as ready as they to shed our blood
for the cause of democracy" he said. H
said that he wished TO find service for
those efficient men who wnald De lef.

could not get conscripted.
At the luncheon Harry Pratt Judsoh,
prcsid"nt of lie University OF Chica,a
introduced resolution to be forwarded
to Pres dent Wilson requesting that the
colonel be allowed to raise division and

interrupted to ask If he might amend

At the Council Table.

For the first time in history, the
United States is officially at the council
table with other tirst-rate powers, for
mulating plans TO ensure the future
peace of Europe and of the world. This
is the exact meaning of the present in
ternational conference at Washington.
1t is nominally a war conference, but
ultimately peace conference; for it il
conference, az Foreign Minister Bal
four of England declared on his arrival,
ito make cooperation easy and effective
between those who are striving with all
their power to bring about lasting
peace by the only means that can secure
it-namely, a successful war" The sober
and serious albeit thoroughly hospitable,
reception accorded the European con-
ferees is quite in keeping with the CRAWL
ty of the occasion. 1t is no junket that
has brought these eminent European
statesmen 10 our national capital. They
find that we recognize, as they do, the
vital necessity for crushing beyond any
chance of resusctation the menace of
Prussian militarism.
Nor are the foreign governments rep
resented in this exchange of counsel to
be regarded merely as our allies. They
come to us with the accrued wisdom of
nearly three years experience in the war,
and the benefit of that wisdom and ex-
perience is freely ours. That we, through
our government, shall avail ourselves OF
it is foregone conclusion. 1t will en-
able us, as Premier Lloyd George so
aptly put it, to start where the allies
are now, not where they were three
years ago" In other words, it will give
us three years start in a war upon
which we have but just entered.
1t is not to be assumed, either, that
the exchange of wisdom will be all one
sided Unquestionably, our government
has ideas which will be welcomed by
our allies; and the formulation of plans
for prosecuting the war, based on this
exchange of ideas, is destined to make
co -operat ton easy and effective" The
emissaries of England and of France
will carry back to their respective coun-
tries and armies now encouragement and
new inspirations as result OF this
conference with the United
States. The government and people of
the United States will have derived
similar courage and inspiration from the
conference. The net result will be an |
effective, cooperative, co-ordinated ALI |
ince which must forever put an end to
Prussian "frightfulness." God speed the |
lay l-Manchester Union.

What Hale Has Done.

The newspapers, principally those out
side the second district, who see sinister
motives in the criticisms of the st.
Johnsbury Caledonian, Barre Times,
Brattleboro Reformer and others of the
congressman from that district, Porter
II. Dale, may know more of what they're
talking about than the newspapers of
Dale's own consistency, but the pre-
sumption is to the contrary. OF course,
no great things can be expected from
new Republican congressman in a
Democratic administration. But from
this distance, speaking from an absolute
ly disinterested standpoint, it doesn't
appear that Mr.. Dale has thus far
emerged above the level of sub-medioc-
rity. And, naturally, Vermont is jeal-
Gus of its record in Congress. Mr.. Dale,
an educated Vermonter, probably has
as far as can be seen he
has not proven it to a justifable de-
gree, and it is not to be wondered at
that the folks in the second district are
impatient. The presumption
is that there are a score of men in the
eastern half of the state who would
have made a more creditable record.
That being the case, dissatisfaction may
be taken as a matter of course.-Rut-
land News.

LIBERTY
LOAN OF 1917
Is Name Chosen by Secre-
tary of Treasury
McAdoo
FOR THE BIG
BOND ISSUE
The Terms Are to Be An
nounced Within Forty
Eight Hours

| Washington, D. c., April so. - The
great loan which the United States is
about to raise by bond issue will go
down in history, Secretary McAdoo an
nounced Saturday night, officially desig-
rated as "the liberty loan of 1917"
This name was selected by Mr.. Nc
Adoo because the money derived from
the loan will be spent to the last dollar
in the fight which democracy is waging
against autocracy. No more suitable
name could be found, Secretary McAdoo
! believes. Many have been suggested,
tut the one selected, Mr.. McAdoo said,
mol only characterized the purpose to
which it will be devoted, but brings to
rt::nd a vivid and clear cut mental pic
lure of Americas purpose in entering
the war.
The treasury department issued the
| following statement.
secretary McAdoo to-day decided
that the great bond issue which he viii
sool begin offering to the public will be
known as the liberty loan OF 1917 The
money to be raised by this loan is for
the purpose of waging wal against au-
louacy. 1t is to supply The sinews of
battle in the interest OF free govern
ment. 1t is peculiarly appropriate that
as The negotiation of this ioan will con-
stitute the first great ster of the United
States in the prosecution OF the war it
should be issued in the name of free
DOM"
The terms Of the liberty loan viii be
announced within 4S hours unless pres
ent plans are changed. Were it not be-
csuse Mr. Ne Adoo and his assistants are
nearly exhausted from the long hours OF
the past week, spent in speeding the
program, its terms might have been an
nounced yesterday. Tentatively they are
almost ready for the public,
There has been no let-up in the work
since the war loan first went to Con-
gress. Hundreds OF persons have con-
ferred with treasury department off
Gals relative to the loan and thousands
Of letters and kilograms have been re-
ccived.
Saturdays conferences were devoted
largely to investment bankers and the
heads and representatives of other finan
eial institutions. Besides these, the Off !
cial representatives OF Great Britain. |
France and Italy called at the treasury |
to outline their needs in further detail. |
At about the same Time as the terms of |
the loan ar maic public, announcement |
is expected to te made regarding the
first loan to Italy and France.
A further offer Of treasury certificates
of indebtedn ,ss, possibly S250,000,000
more, probably will be announced soon.

FERTILIZER FROM
TARRED STREETS
MAY BE HARMFUL
Oil and Tar in Sweepings Are Injurious
to Plants, Specialists Warn--Col-
lect Manure Carefully.

Those who use street sweepings to fer
tilize gardens should avoid manure that
contains oil or tar. Either of these sub
stances is harmful to plants, specialists
in the Z. S. department Of agriculture
say. Sweepings from tarred provements
or oiled roads are likely to contain them.
Oil droppings from motor cars often mix
with such waste, also. If sweepings are
collected with some care and before rain
or water from street sprinklers have
reached them and washed out the ele-
ments of fertilizing value, they can be
used advantageously
In connection with the spread of the
city gardening movement, now popular
throughout the country, the department
OF agriculture believes warning in re-
gard TO oil and tar damage should be
given. A specialist in the bureau of
chemistry cites an instance of damage
done to garden near Silver Spring,
Montgomery Center, Maryland, on which
unsorted street sweepings from the Dis
strict of Columbia were used This gar
den, according to the specialist, was
ruined by the tar products in the fer
tilizer and it was necessary to remove
the soil and resurface the entire plot
with new soil 1t is suggested by this
official that with some attention to de-
tail it might be possible to collect sweep.

and perhaps from other public places.

IRISH HOME RULE.
Congressman Send Cablegram Urging
Settlement of Problem.

Washington, April 30.--A cablegram
urging a settlement of the Irish problem
was sent from Washington to Premier
Lloyd George Saturday night by 200 rep
resentatives in Congress, headed by
Speaker Champ Clark. There is great in
terest in this country in the situation
and the Irish home rule question has
been discussed by American officials with
members of the British commission now
visiting the United States. The mes
sage sent by the representatives follows:
"You are quoted as saying that settle

for the peace of the world and for
speedy victory in the war.
"May we, members in the American
Congress, suggest that nothing win add
more to the enthusiasm of America in
this war than settlement now of the
Irish problemf"

A CENTRALIZED RED CROSS
Is the Plea of Herbert Hoover to Eliot
Wadsworth.

! An appeal for Capitalization of the Red
Cross administration is made by Herbert
Hoover in the following communication
Eliot Wadsworth, ESQ.,
Acting Chairman,
| American Red Cross,
Washington, ID. G.
| My dear Wadsworth:
With regard to our conversation to-
day on the subject of European expert
ence in organization of the Red Cross,
would like to repeat that there has been
one result of two and one-half years of
experience in Red Cross work in all the
European countries and that is the vital
necessity for total Capitalization un-
der the Red Cross executive of the whole
of the civilian volunteer effort connected
with the comfort of those in the service
of the army and navy. Every country in
Europe has gone through an era of dis
integrated overlapping effort, the multi
plying of thousands of committees and
tons of useless, inapropos and wrongly
destined material. There was long
struggle on the part of the military and
Red Cross officials to get these matters
onto a systematic and effective basis.
They have come in the end to one form
of organization in every country in Eu-
rope, by which the Red Cross executive
centralizes executive control of all such
activities and decentralizes its various
phases into local chapters and these
again are divided into divisions for the
provision of money, of surgical and med
zeal supplies, OF nurses, of base and con-
valescent hospitals, the creation, collec-
ton, transportation, standardization and
redistribution, etc, of all sorts of sup
plies. The grouping of these various di-
visions must be varied with national me-
cessity, depending upon geographic and
transportation questions. The work of
the women, which is very large factor
in Red Cross work, must be co-ordinated
through the central agency and a repre-
sentation of the women in that central
agency has proved the only effective
method of securing this. In England and
France especially, the erection of special
committees has been fruitful of
the most extreme difficulty until they
accept direct control, after which they |
nave become OF the utmost use ana pur- !
pose. The already established women's
of various kinds can find |
their best purpose in instructing their
local bodies to place themselves entirely |
at the disposal of the local chapters of |
the Red Cross.
In general, the one fundamental factor I
in war organization generally, is central
cation of executive and such centraliza-
ton cannot be effected if there are lot |
Of national semi-independent boards or
operating outside, or par
tally outside of the direct control of the
Red Cross executive.
In any event the general principle
must be that the Red Cross itself is the
executive operating by in
ense decentralization of its productive
ind distributing functions, and this has
,een arrived at as the only possible solu
ion after an enormous lot of plain, tur
noil and waste.
Yours faithfully,
tSigned) Herbert Hoover
