BANKERS ENTITLED TO GREAT
CREDIT.

For the success of both issues OF
Liberty Loan bonds, no class of citi-
zens is entitled to as much credit as
the bankers The bankers, both big
and little, in every city and hamlet in
the land, worked without compensa-
ton to procure Liberty Loan sub
scriptions. They did more, they help
ed those who were unable to pay for
bonds on the terms prescribed by the
government. to borrow money on easy
terms and longer time to complete
their payments for bonds.
AS rule bankers do not like to
have deposits withdrawn from their
banks. but at the country's call the
bankers waived their individual in
terests and worked like Trojans to
sell bonds, knowing full we'll that
practically all bond purchasers would
have to withdraw deposits from some
bank to pay for the bonds they pur-
chased
The federal government has power
to protect the banks of the country,
and keep them supplied with the nee
essary circulation medium, AND 1T
MUST DO so.

NO SEPARATE PEACE
FOR THE RUSSIANS
Foreign Minister Says SIavs Will
Fight On.
FOE WOULD EXPLOIT COUNTRY
Terestchenke in Address Declares Ger
many's Aim Is to Separate
Russia From the
Entente.

Petrograd, Oct. 31.-Foreign Minis
ter Terestchenko in addressing the
preliminary parliament said separ-
ate peace was impossible, and that de-
Tense of Russian territory was one of
the fundamental needs.
"There is a rumOr that the allies
wished to leave Russia to her fate"
the foreign minister continued, but
l state officially that it is untrue.
"Germany'S aim is to separate Rus
STA from the allies, and If possible to
do this by peaceful means, in order to
use Russia economically afterward.
Plans to Exploit Russia.
while the other nations at war are
unable to continue civil industry, Ger
many has been so well organized from
the beginning that s'se has been able
to continue her efforts to carry on
trade. She looks upon Russia as her
market.
Therefore the defense of Russian
territory is one of the fundamental
needs now, for if Germany gets into
Russia commercially after the war we
shall have no self-detinitiOn after
ward" ,.,., ~4--, -.-,~"
The foreign minister said the abso-
Lutte independence Of Courland, and,
perhaps, of Poland and Lithuania, was
impossible, as it would mean that Rus
STA would return to the days before
Peter. He also asserted complete de-
mobilization and disarmament and
naturalization of canals and straits
were impossible.
RuSsia's foreign policy had not
changed, the minister continued, since
the first statement enunciating the
principles Of no indemnities, no an
nexations and the right of nations to
self-definition.
''The people must understand that
the war is being carried on not by gov
ernments, but by nations" he added.
''As the nations began the fighting, so
they must end it. Russia and France
first held back the foes, and so they
continue"
NJ. Terestchenko declared that the
offers for separate peace and the
sentiment in favor of them We're
strongest last May, when they were
followed by the Russian offensive.
The Cossacks' army union at Novo
