THE ALLIED CONFERENCE

Representatives of all the Allied
nations will soon gather at Paris to
discuss the important questions deal
ing with the prosecution of the war
against the common enemy. The safe
arrival of the United States CON-
mission at British port has been an
nounced and the great task of lay
ing plans for future action will soon
be started upon.
While the exact matters to be dis
cussed are being kept secret, it is
known that the general aim of the
conference is to secure greater CO.
operation between the Allies. The
keynote to the success that has at
tended the German and Austrian arms
has been the close unity of action
since the very outset of the struggle.
In contrast to this, the Allies have
been hampered by the lack of central
authority, resulting in loss of eff
ficiency and many defeats.
A full and frank discussion" of the
plans and needs of the various bellig-
erents is desired by the United States,
according to Secretary Lansing who
realizes that the vast resources of this
nation will not bring the results that
they should unless the Allies are in
harmony in each war move. The fact
that the conference is to be held for
the discussion of only war matters is
of special significance. Tangible re-
suits that will be followed by greater
activities by Allied arms on all fronts
are predicted.
After three years of fighting, the
Allies have learned the truth of the
maxim United we stand, divided we
fall" The calling of this special con-
ference is one of the most momentous
steps taken to bring the war to a
decisive close. Each move and word
Of the commissioners will be eagerly
noted by the millions of persons who
stand for the rights of humanity and
small nations.

Demonstration E. c. O'Nelll to Rolla.

E. c. O'Neill, who is acting as an
emergency county demonstration
agent, left yesterday for Rolla in
Phelps County. Here he will con-
duct a campaign for the rest of the
week. During the first three days of
next week, he will conduct a similar
campaign in Pulaski County. The OBJ
ject of the campaigns is to urge the
farmers to select the proper kind of
year so that better seed will be as
sured. These campaigns are particu-
larly important now because of the
early freezes and the consequent in
jury to late corn.

Not more than twenty per cent of
the revenue necessary to run the
country in 1918 will come from taxes.
The remaining eighty per cent will be
bonds. The greatest question the
new Congress will have to decide will
be how to meet the necessity for a
broad and comprehensive system of
taxation to pay the bonds and at the
same time finance the country.
