MISSOURI DRUMMERS

R. A. Bradley, Of this city, was
elected president of the Missouri
Drummers' Association at the annual
meeting in Boonville last week. Mr..
Bradley, who represents the Purina
Mills, is one of the most popular trav-
cling men in this State as well as in
Mexico.
He extended an invitation for the
next meeting to be held here, but Co.
lumbia forestalled him and secured
the 1918 gathering. He had an in
vitation from the Mexico Business
Mems Association, as well as one
from Mayor j. F. Harrison.
The first meeting of the Missouri
Drummers' Association was held in
this city a number of years ago. 1t
was a most successful session and re-
ports state it has never been equaled
by any other town. The Ledger joins
Mr.. Bradley's many friends inextend-
ing congratulations and also felicia
lions to the M. D. A. upon their
choice for president. He will prove

ALL AMERICAS TO ARMS
Western Hemisphere to Unite Against
Germany in Year

BALTIMORE, Md, June s.
John Barrett, director general of the
Pan-Amerisan Union, in a speech here
yesterday before a Liberty Loan mass
meeting, predicted that within a year
all the Americas will be fighting to-
gether against Germany.
"If Brazil enters the conflict, as to-
day seems eminent" he said, "two-
thirds of the entire population and
five Fights Of the total area from the
Western Hemisphere will be at war
with the common enemy. Can the re-
manning one-third of population and
three-eights of area stand against the
psychological, sympathetic and eco
nomic appeal of their sister people
and countries having similar inter-
ests, similar institutions, similar
governments and similar destiny?
"That the whole Western Hemis-
phere will be directly engaged in the
war before another year passes in not
only possible, but very probable.
Speaking unofficially, for n can
speak today in this crisis for all
America, but basing conclusions OH
the consistent attitude of the Latin
American press and the expressed
opinions of the Latin American
statesmen, it can be said that, despite
the justifiable and even praiseworthy
neutrality Of some Of the Latin
war before another year passes is not
question whatever that it now looks
as if events inevitably would cause all
of them to align themselves with the
United States and our European AL
lies and even take such steps as will
be equal to a declaration of war.
"The preponderating public senti.
ment everywhre in Latin-America un.

REQUEST THAT BELLS
Be TOLLED 8 NIGHTS
City Hall, Court House and Church
Bells to Be TOlled in Behalf Of
the Liberty Bond Loans
is MRS. MeADOo's REQUEST
Strokes at Nine O'Clock Each Night
Will Announce Number of Days
Remaining for the Loan

The bell in the City Hall, in the
Court House and in the Churches of
| Mexico will be tolled each night at 8
o'clock as a warning of the short time
left in which to buy your Liberty
Loan Bonds. This request came to
the local Bell Telephone exchange late
Monday afternoon and is to be a part
rof the windup campaign throughout
this country. Tonight the bells will
toll three and Wednesday night two
and Thursday once.
The following is the request re-
ceived here:
"Please arrange, through your or
%ganization and through connecting
company organizations to have all
church, school and court house bells
in your territory ring at 900 o'clock
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday nights. They should be
tolled four times on Monday, three on
Tuesday, two on Wednesday and ono
on Thursday, representing the num-
Der of days left in which to buy Lib
erty Bonds"
This request comes from Mrs. W.
G.. McAdoo, chairman of the Wom-
ans Liberty Bond Committee, and
the significance of the liberty bells
ringing in every city, town and village
is to serve as a challenge to Ameri-
cans of today sent down by the lovers
of liberty who signed the Declaration
of independence.
