IRepubIican A. P. Leased WireI
WASHINGTON, April ga nation
wide advertising campaign of extraor-
dinary proportions has been decided
upon by Secretary McAdoo as the most
effective means of disposing quickly of
the $4,000 100000 bond issue soon to
be offered to the public.
SO many patriotic offers of aid have
poured into the treasury department
recently that practically every method
of publicity will be at the governments
disposal without charge.
Newspapers, magazines, street car
advertisements, even the billboards,
soon may be summoning every Amer
ican to do his duty by subscribing.
Large advertising agencies have Of
fered their services, free of charge, in
writing the advertisements.
Many newspapers have opened their
advertising columns with no charge.
Officials have welcomed such offers
and expect others. There will be no
general campaign of paid advertising,
1t was said authoritatively tonight,
nor the incurrence of any items of eX-
essential, the administration desire
beng that the issue may be placed at
the least possible cost.
Five million dollars will be available
for all items of expense, including the
high-priced distinctive paper upon
which the bonds will be engraved and
the mechanical and clerical expense in
cidental to their issue. A force of
approximately 1000 persons will be
added to the bureau of engraving and
printing, and at least 200 clerks will be
employed in the clerical work This
force will be obtained through the
civil service
The appropriation of $4,000 is
one-tenth of one per cent of the issue.
For meeting the expenses of issuing
the $500, 600, 900 bonds first authorized
in the war with Spain, an appropria-
tion of one-fifth of one per cent was
consumed
Offers of assistance have been re-
ceived from many unexpected sources.
Department stores have offered not
only to accept subscriptions, but to
solicit them, and in some cases, to
make subscriptions easier for their
customers by buying bonds outright
and accepting installmenl payments for
them. Express companies have offered
the service of their money order de-
partments free. Chains of stores deal
ing in various commodities have asked
if they might not be authorized to re-
ceive subscriptions.
Patriotic societies, civic organiza-
tions, fraternities and hundreds of in
dividuals have urged the department to
permit them to conduct an active SELL
ing campaign. The chief burden of
distribution will devolve upon the
banks.
There probably will be at least $780,
600 places in the United States where
her bonds may be purchased, including
banks, internal revenue offices. GUS
toms houses and the long list of post
offices.
Indications are that the big issue
may be offered to the public by June 1.
Should one suggestion before the de-
partment be adopted, as seems likely,
subscribers will be given 80 days in
which to make final payments. This
would make the proceeds available fer
the government about July l.

GERMANS ABOARD

LONDON, April 22-The British hos
pitaI ships Donegal and Lanfranc, with
many wounded aboard, have been tor
pedoed without warning. They were
sunk on April II. OF those on the
Donegal 29 wounded men and 12 of the
crew are missing. The Lanfranc car
ried German wounded as we'll as Brit
ish. OF those aboard, 19 British and
IS Germans are believed to have
persisted.
The story of the sinking of the hos
pital ship Lanfranc will rank with the
undying histories of the Brkenhead
and Tyndareus, according to a British
officer. The British soldiers stood at
attention while the ship was slowly
sinking beneath them. Their conduct
was in marked contrast to that of the
Prussian guardsmen aboard, who in
the moment of danger rushed for the
life boats.
THE lanfranc was attacked by a
submarine about 7:30 o'clock Tuesday
evening"" said the officer. "The crash
shook the liner violently, the explosion
sending splinters of wood and glass
flying in all directions. Within few
minutes the engines stopped and the
vessel seemed to be sinking rapidly,
but to our surprise she steadied her
SELF and after while remained mo-
tionIess. We had aboard prisoners of
the Prussian Guard and many British
wounded, including some serious cases.
"The moment the torpedo struck the
Prussians made a mad rush for the
life boats. When they were ordered to
await their turn, many showed cow
ardice by dropping or their knees and
implorng pity.
The crew and staff went to their
posts. The stretcher cases were low
cred first to the boats. Meanwhile, in
response to distress calls many vessels
came hurriedly to our assistance. Even
while wounded and helpless Tommies
lay unaided in their cots, the cowardly
prisoners made another attempt and

GERMANS TRYING
FOR PEACE WITH

COPENHAGEN, (Via London, April
%, 1850 p.m)-Saturday's Berlin
Vorwaerts which has been received
here, contains a detailed report of
the big socialist conference, showing
plainly that the German majority
socialists, under the leadership of
Philip Schneidemann, despite all de-
mails, are working for a separate
peace with Russia, If a general peace
is not obtainable.
The resolutions adopted were
framed to encourage the Russian rad
icals of the council of workmen's and
soldiers deputies in a peace pro-
gram Herr Schneidem9n and others
stating openly that citations from the
Russian councils appeal had been in
serted textually in the German resolu-
tions to emphasize that fact that these
were in answer to the appeal.
Herr Scheidemann sharply con-
demned the Anglo French socialist and
labor representatives for crossing the
German plan by sending mission to
Petrograd.
Naturally" said Herr Scheidemann.
our efforts are directed toward a gem
eral peace, but if they are unsuccessful
then, naturally, we are for a separate
peace"
The speeches at the conference
/ brought out the interesting fact that
naturalization of the munitions indus
try was being contemplated in Ger

insnstence on immediate internal re-
forms was expressed. ~It was declared
that unless the socialists insisted upon
the fulfillment of the emperors promis-
es now, they probably would find
themselves again cheated of any gem

Prussan diet said that, as it was. the
chances for franchise reform were
