Summer homes" in Vermont are
becoming more popular each year,
and for enjoyment. rest, health CIV
ing ozone and beautiful scenery the
state holds first place. Throughout
the entire state there is no section
where the scenery is more charming,
the air and water more health giving
or streams and lakes more inviting
than in this northeastern section of
the state. With all these you get
the quiet restfulness of forest sur
roundings and that back, to nature"
atmosphere that so many seek in
leaving the constant strain of busy
city life. If you pass the summer
once in this section you will want to
come again. Essex county is on the
map and invites all health and pleas
ure seekers to come this way. Of
the good things in this section "the
half has never been told"

Vermont has every reason to be
proud of her National Guard. The
young men composing this regiment
are among the best any state can
show and their morale is of the high
est order. That they are not fully
equipped is not their fault or the
states, but is due to the lack of pre-
paredness on the part of the govern
ment. A regiment of guards that
could stand up under such a grilling
inspection as General Edwards put
the VermontNational Guard through
shows that the personnel of the
Green Mountain Boys is second to
none. Oh, we are proud of the Yer.
mont National Guard. individually
and collectively, and we are proud
of every Vermont lad who is taking

We wonder what those city papers
will say now about Vermont being a
Stacker" With over 400 men in
the national service and on the bat
tie front, one regiment of National
Guard ready for duty, its quota of
men for the new national army near
ly filled and over 80 Vermont boys
to receive commissions in the new
army, Vermont is doing her "bit."
She can point to those states who
have tried to discredit her record
and show up some happenings in
their work of selecting the new ma
tional army that are no credit, and
show conr,us,yeIy that it never pays
to play, Il am no Ter than thou"

Russian Reports Halt
Hollweg's Peace Move
Chancellor's Decision Sup
ported by Catholic
Centre

Copenhagen lyia London, April 70
DR.. Won Bethmann-H Hollweg, Ger
man Imperial Chancellor. has found
support for his policy of deferrirg a
definite formulation Of peace promo
sails. The support comes from he
Catholic Centre. now the most power
full party in the Reicnstag, which has
adoptcd his standpoint If this is still
his standpoint favoring the postpon-
ing Of a reform in the Prusslan fran
chise until peace is effected.
On the other hand, as was TO be ex-
pected. the Chancellor's declaration IN
the "Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung'
against any precise statement Of peace
terms now has evoked noisy protests
from opponents on both sides Of the
Chamber. The Socialists declare that
his refusal TO put forth definite peace
terms is evidence OF weakness and IN
decision, while the Pan-Germans are
indignant over the absence OF al
authoritative disavowal from the gov
ernment's side Of the Socialist propo-
sails Of no anneXations or lndemnities.
The renewed decision Of the govern
ment not TO commit itself with regard
to peace is said TO be due to fear
that such action would please nobody
but would cut away support from all
sides. and also to the belief that for
the present little is to be hoped for
from its missionary efforts in Russia
= field from which it is promptly and
extensively informed.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-04-27

Amsterdam, April 26.-The "T'jd'
correspondent in Germany says that
DR.. Won Bethmann-HOllweg, the I'M
perial German Chancellor, in his next
speech in the Reichstag, will specify
Germany's peace terms in greater de-
tail. The Reichstag has adjourned to
meet May 2.
The Wescr "Zeitung" fercely de-
nounces the Socialist peace propaganda
which Il says displays muddleheaded
and incredible misconception of Ger
many's victorious position on the West
front and the success of her sub
marine warfare. The newspaper frankly
indicates its expectation that Ger
many's programme. in the event Of
conclusion of separate peace with
Russia, will be as follows;
The East front armies would be
released for service in the West, to
strike terror among the Italians and to
relieve Samara and Mosul. while with
Russia dissolved into several autono-
nous republics we should no longer
need to guard against the Pan
Slavists."
The newspaper adds that now that
Germany is strong enough to defy all,
it would be an insult to the dead and
living heroes 20 show weakness.

German Papers Censored
Before Leaving Country

Copenhagen (via London, April 26.
The protests of a Socialist represen-
tative in the Reichstag committee yes
terday called attention for the first
time to the fact that German news
papers must now submit to a prelimi-
nary censorship before being permitted
10 leave the country. For some time
the Radical Socialist newspapers have
been markedly behind other publica-
tions in the time of their delivery here
The authorities have evidently re-
sorted to this means to block the chan
mel through which disagreesble news
and discussions have reached foreign
ears.
At the same meeting of the Reichs-
tag committee which was devoted TO
military questions. it was indicated
that all is not satisfactory in the man
ufacture of explosives. Deputy Gothein
demanded information as to the status
Of the production of explosives and
criticised as inadequate a confidential
report Of the Minister Of War on the
military situation in the west.

Big Loan to Give
Allies $4OO,OOO,000
AMonth from US.
Borrowed Funds To Be Spent
Here; Big Loan May Be
Spread Over Year

Washington, April 26.-Preliminary
reports to the Treasury Department
upon which Secretary McAdoo VIII
base his recommendation to the Pre-
ident as to the size of the first bond
issue under the $7000,00O,0OO war IL
nance law, indicate that the United
States will be called upon to finance
the Allies to the extent of at least
S4OO, 900 and possibly S5OO,OOO,OOO
a month.
The tentative programme also calls
for the expenditure of virtually every
dollar of the borrowed money in this
country for foodstuffs. munitions, coal,
clothing, railway equipment and other
supplies.
The estimates indicate the following
Entente needs: For Great Britain,
5000 900. 900 to S25O,OOO,0O0 a month;
for France, slOO,OOO,OOO to $125,OOO,-
600; for Russia, an amount undeter-
mined, but up to $iOO,OOO,OOO a month
depending largely upon the ability OF
manufacturing plants in this country
to meet her demands, mostly for sup
plies other than foodstuffs and munl-
tions; for Italy, S50,OO0,0OO a month.
May Last Year
Should these requirements be met
in their entirety, the s3,OOO,OOO,OoO
available for lending the Allies would
be exhausted in from six to seven and
one-half months. 1t is likely, however
that preliminary estimates can o.
pared down so that the loan can be
made to cover perhaps a year.
Secretary McAdOo and his assistants
devoted to-day almost wholly to q
study of Entente financial needs and
methods to be followed in placing the
money at their disposal. Callers ir-
cluded Lord Cunliffe, Governor Of the
Bank of England, with Sir Cecil
Spring Rice, the British Ambassador,
and other embassy officials; delega-
tion from the French Commission and
the Italian Ambassador. Count Di Gel
lere.
With French and Italian representa-
tiyes the needs Of those nations were
discussed in detail. France, it was
represented, was spending from $780,
100000 to s22O, 100000 abroad, one
half or more of which is being paid
out in the United States. One-quarter
of the French foreign spendings go to
Great Britain, her chief source Of coal
and other supplies.
The Nations Problems
II is understood that representations
were made to the United States that
a heavy burden would be lifted from
French shoulders if a way could be
found to furnish France with $780,
900. 900 to 1920, 100000 monthly, de-
signed to cover her expenses, not only
in the United States. but a part OF
those in other countries.
Italy's chief concern is with her food
stuffs and coal supplies. The situation
there is said to demand relief as soon
as it can be furnished. -.
Russia's immediate need for credits
is TO furnish her with foodstuffs, rail-
way equipment, to make effective her
military transportation system, and
other supplies, a study of conditions in
detail being contemplated by the Amer
lean commission, of which Elhu Root
will be chairman, soon TO visit that
country.

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 30.- The United States government will waste no time about the latest Ger man peace suggestions. These have been placed before the warning na- tions by neutral governments. Their receipt is admitted by the State De- partment which nonchalantly says that they carry nothing new and the only object is to open possibilities before the neutral nations so that they can aIienate the fast growing sympathy for the Entente Nations and the battle for world wide d. morcacy.
