Rhine. the effect upon the Russian
army will be electric.
Russia then will stick through thick
and thin with the entente and the
Germans will not be able to spare q
single man from the east front, fol
the Russians will make one more
tremendous onslaught in an attempt
to defeat the Germans.
But if the kaiser's lines in the west
are only bent back, not actually
pierced, not rolled up; if the battle Of
Arras resolves itself into another bat
tie of the Somme, then, before the
end of the battle is in sight, Russia
and Germany will be at peace. In
that case, and in that case only, Will
the prediction Of Albert Ballin that

come true.
Such are the conclusions reached BY
E, a highly placed neutral diplomat as
given to the correspondent Of The In
ternational News Service today IN
connection with the new peace furry
which is preoccupying the minds OF
observers here.
The moment that Field Marshall Won
Hindenburg is certain beyond the
shadow Of q doubt that Russia Is
about to drop out of the conflict ne
is expected to send to the western
front the bulk of his heavy artillery
in the east and the bulk Of his eastern
| armies.

nications in the laying OF which speed
has been the dominating factor, has
! been spread across the empire, con-
Meeting the two fronts for this pur'
nose. But the moment in which Hin
denburg can press it into service Wil'
not have come until it has been dem
onstrated-also beyond shadow o.
doubt-that the German lines in the
west cannot be pierced, but only ben'
| back.

Meanwhile, German, Russian, Aus

making swift headway in laying the
foundation for concrete peace nego'

doing and propose to do was thrown
today by the Copenhagen correspon-
dent of the Dutch Socialist Press
! who is Socialist member of the
Danish parliament. Other significant
sidelights came in dispatches from

many, provided the loan IS made
while the United States is at war
with Germany.
All efforts to make material modi1-
cations int he bond bill failed. Amend
ments accepted by Majority Leader
Kitchin, in charge Of the measure,
limited the loan to the enemies OF
Germany and provided the loan must
be made while the United States IS
at war.
Another amendment, proposed by
Representative Fitzgerald, OF New
York, reduced from one-ffth Of l per
cent to one-tenth Of l per cent the
fund appropriated out Of the BOND
sale for the expenses of floating the
issue.
An effort made by Representative
Towner, of Iowa, to separate the bond
proposal into two measures was de-
feated. Representative Howner want
ed the congress to include the allied
loan bonds in a separate bill IN order
that congress might prescribe the
exact conditions Of the loan, rather
than give the president and secre-
tary of the treasury broad discretion
in the matter. The Towner effort
failed without record vote.
Representative Moore, OF Pennsyl-
vania, varied the desu1tory debate
when he suggested that an ironclao
business arrangement to insure the
repayment Of the loan to the allies
should be incorporated in the BILL

sentative Madden, of Illinois, Repub-

MUST PERSONALLY FILE
REQUIRED AFFIDAVIT

Columbia, April 13.-Persons order
ing the medicinal quart OF liquor or
the sacramenta1 gallon of wine pei
month, which is the limit after April
25, must personally file the required
affidavit with the judge Of probate uu-
der an opinion rendered by the attoT-
ney generals Office this afternoon.
The affidavit may be made before
any officer of the State qualified to
administer an oath, but in the event
the probate judge is requested to
make the affidavit, he must do so, the
assistant attorney general holds.
The opinion is as follows:
"Hon. G. R. webb, Judge Of Pro
bate Aiken, S. C. Dear Sir: Your
letter Of the 10th inst. to the attor-
new general relative to your duties IN
connection with the enforcement OF
the quart-a-month act has been hano-
ed me for attention.
"You ask to be advised as to W'heth-
er or not, under the terms OF the act,
you are required, when requested 10
do So to take the oath In connection
with the affidavit required to be filed
by persons making application to you
for permits to order liquor. You ask
further to be advised whether or not
the affidavit required to be filed
should be filed in person by the appl-
cant.
In reply thereto I beg to advise
that the AFFIDAVIT required to be FLED
may be made before any officer OF
the State qualified to administer an
oath, but, in the event the party
desiring the permit should request
that you take his affidavit, it is your
duty to do so. You may, however,
charge and collect a fee Of rs cents
for administering the oath.
LAS to the question whether the al
fidavit should be filed in person by
the party desiring the permit. am OF
the opinion that it Was the Intention
and purpose of the legislature to re-
ouire parties making application for
the permit to appear in person before
the Judges of probate and file their
affdavits, and that you should SO
rule. The act in this regard is not
specific. This point, however, could
be determined by the court on the
relation Of the parties aggrieved by
this construction.
yours very truly,

gTCPENDOTS WAR LOAN
Is FAVORED By HOUSE
Bill Authorizing Issue OF Seven Bill
lion Dollars in Government Securi-
ties is Passed Without Dissenting
Vote.
(Bv F. r. Sartwell.)


Washington, April 1.-THE most
stupendous war loan ever proposed
in the worlds history started on lts
way to the statute books today when
the house of representatives, with
mo dissenting vote, passed the bill
authorizing the issue Of seven b:l-
aions in government securities for
war purposes.
Three hundred and eishty-nine
members of the house were recorded
in favor of the bond bill, the admin
istration's first war measure.
Majority Leader Kitchin and Re-
publican leader Mann announced thai
all the absent members Of both par
ties would have voted for it, had
they been present.
Representative Meyer London Of
New York, conscientiously opposed
to war, announced himself as pres
ent," but would not vote against the
bill.
The representatives OF the people,
without regard to party lines. gave
their full approval to the administers
ton plan for financing Americas par
ticipation in the war against Ger
many, and for extending fnancia! aid
to the enemies of Germany across the
Atlantic.
On Monday the senate will take up
the war-5ond bill! and administration
leaders declared tonight that it would
be rushed through the upper house
with little debate.
1t undoubtedly will reach President
Wilson for his signature early next
week and the actual cash resources OF
the nation then will be available for
war.
AS it passed the house tonight, the
bond bill accomplishes these results:
It authorizes the issue of long-term
bonds of the government at ? 1-2 per
GENT interest for s5,O00,000.00o.
It authorizes the issue of one-year
treasury certificates at the same in
terest rate for $4,000, 100000.
1t gives the secretary Of the treas
ury and the president wide discre-
ton in the details of the bond aud
certificate issues.
It authorizes the loan Of SS,000,-
100000 of the money raised by the
