"WHlLE l rejoice at the over

cial part of this Y. NJ. G. A. cam

what appeals to me as even a great

Thousands who had no idea of
the really vital part which the Y.

been enlightened. And as they know
more of it, the wonder will grow
upon them of the marvellous extent
and influence of the work.

AMERICA ALTERS
 WAR PERSPECTIVE FOR WHOLE WORLD
Entrance of United States Transforms It Into Stu
 pendous Revolution.

Philadelphia, Pa., April 21.-The grand alliance" between the United States and the democracies of Europe against autocratic agg: ession as prac- ticed by Germany, gives rise to +re hope that the war will lead to fed eration of the world, in the opinion of Walter Lippmann, of New Yor'; as sociate editor of the "New Republic" :" expressed today in an address on "America's Relations to .he World Conflict" before the American Acade- my of Political and So:.aI Science.
 'T know it sounds little old fash toned to use that phrase, the Tedera- ton of the World" sad MT. Lipp- mann, "because we have use! 1t so long in empty rhetoric. But no other idea is big enough to describe the al- liance. It is no longer an offensive defensive agreement among diplo- mats. It is growing into union of peoples determined to end forever that intriguing, adventurous national ism which has torn the world for three centuries.
 'The war is resolving into a stu- pendous revolution. A few months ago we still argued about the Bagda1 corridor, stragetic frontiers. colonies. These were the stakes of the dipl)- mats war. The whole prospective 's changed today by the revolution in Russia and the intervention of America. The scale of values $ transformed, for the democracies are unloosed.
 "We are at war to defeat the Ger man government. to destroy it's pres tige, to deny its conquests,. and to throw it back at last into the arms of the German people, marked and dis credited as the authors of their mis- cries. It is for them to make the final settlement with it.

Clearing H ouse Decides After Brief Discussion
 and Amount Subscribed.
INTEREST RATE IS
 ONLY 3 PER CENT.
Government Officials Show That Al. though Bill Has Not Yet Normally Been Passed by Congress, Amount
 Needed Is Over Subscribed.

The Pine Bluff banks, acting through the Pine Buff Clearing House association, yesterday complet- ed arrangements to subscribe for S13O,OO0 of the treasury indebtedness certificates, to be issued by the gov ernment in the amount of $2,OOO,0OO,- 900 as a means of obtaining funds for war expenses, pending the flow into the treasury of receipts from war taxes and sale of the big proposed bond issue.
 The matter was favorably decided upon after brief discussion at the Friday meeting of the clearing hous association, at which time it was as- sured that s5O,0OO would be sub scribed by the local banks. Yester- day, however, the sIeral banks in creased their subscriptions, and the aggregate amount of the war certifi- cates that will be handled by the To- cal banking institutions, therefore, is $15O,000.
