GERMAN PEOPLE LOSE CONFIDENCE
 IN THEIR POWER
Frenchman in Very Con- servative Tone Talks of Changed Conditions in
 Prussian Empire

Paris, July 11.-'without assuming that Saturdays declarations by leaders in the Reichstag committee can in any way be interpreted as precursors of a possible revolution, 1t cannot be denied that there is a change in the public spirit in Ger many and 1t Is certain that the uneasi- ress revealed by these debates would have been impossible a year ago." said Jules Cambon. general secretary to the ministry of foreign affairs, to the Asso- ciated Press today.
 At that time" he continued, the faith of the entire people in the onnnipo- tence of Prussian militarism was intact and blind confidence in the ivincibllity of German arms was absolute. It is the re- sumption of the Russian offensive that Is provoking a definite collapse of the hopes the whole nation had placed in a sepa- rate peace. The submarine warfare, de- spite the damage 1t has caused us, also represents an undoubted check as the months pass and this form of piracy is shown more to be powerless to effect a blockade of the allies, and how can the Germans fail to feel defeat coming when from the other side Of the ocean the American menace rapidly grows forni- dable2
 However, on this matter 1t would be better for us not to indulge in exaggera- tons. We sometimes are prone to over estimate the resources, great through are they in men and material that the Unit ed States can put at the disposal of the entente, just as we sometimes underesu- mate the necessity for the arrival of this valued aid.
 Excessive dreams would be dangerous as preparing the way for disillusions and this would be criminal, for America is lending us powerful aid without limit, thanks to which it has become impossible for us not to triumph The simple truth is so fine that 1t is unnecessary to add anything to 1t"

ANOTHER LIBERTY LOAN
By HOLLAND

i dition to this voluntary service in aid of
 the liberty loan they were compelled to
 readjust the system of reserves which
 heretofore has been in effect; for Con
 gress by series of amendments to the
 federal reserve act established new system of reserves for the member banks. For instance, the so-called country banks
 are under this amendment required to keep reserve of per cent upon deposits payable on demand and Der cent upon time deposits. The reserve clty pankS are now compelled to keep reserve or
 10 per cent upon demand deposits and 5 per cent upon time deposits. The cen traI reserve city banks are required to
 keep a reserve of 13 per cent upon de-
 mand deposits and 3 per cent upon time
 deposits. Moreover, the banks are not allowed now to carry any portion of the legal reserve in their own vaults. They
 must deposit their entire reserves With
 the federal reserve bank of their district. Now the putting into effect of these amendments at the identical tune when
 the banks were so heavily burdened with
 their voluntary work in receiving sub scriptions and handling payments made
 on account of the liberty loan entailed vast amount of additional work. It was necessary to transfer all reserves to the federal reserve banks. Nevertheless, Tn Splt6 OI InlS VI NOAh eiAS national banks of the United States con- pleted their service in a most enlclent manner. In fact, so efficient was the work of the banks that Governor Hard ing of the federal reserve board deemed it pleasure as well as duty to send letters of warm commendation to the
 bankers who had greatly facilitated the tloa ting of the liberty loan and Secre- tary McAdoo was glad to wire messages of congra tuation to various committees whose work enabled him to report, few days after the subscription was closed, that it had been oversubscribed by more than a billion dollars.
