WAR AIMS ARE
NOT REVEALED
German Newspapers Complain That
There is no Frank State
mont Regarding
Future,

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. J
THE HAGUE, April 26.-Dissatis-
faction over Germany's failure frank
ly to announce her war aims, IS open
ly expressed in German newspaper
editorials reaching here today.
1T is deplorable," the Tageblatt
declares, that all declarations Of the
German government regarding war
aims are unintelligible, artificial, In
distinct and of many meanings. We
have remarked this nearly every time
the chancellor has spoken on this
subject. In all these cases we have
protested that such language was
more harmful than beneficial to the
cause of the German people; that it
confirmed or permitted to continue
unchecked annexationist aspirations
which must afterward be disappoint
ed; that in foreign countries 1t could
not win us the good will of the paci-
fists, but would be used against us
by our war-mad enemies.
ut was also a mistake, as it since
has been proved that President VIII
sons direct question concerning our
war aims was evasively answered by
the statement that they would COM
municate the moment we should be
seated at the green table with the
representatives of the entente.

Chairman of Committee Said To-

THERE RAIN OR SHINE

Dollars are going to loom up as
big as battleships on Saturday, Keo-
kuk Dollar day. The bargains which
the local merchants are going to give
the trade on that day will be just las
big, too.
Tell the people to come rain or
shine, weather won't make any diff
ference with the big bargains we're
going to give" was the way J. B.
Klein, chairman of the committee
put things today.
Keokuk merchants have been
noted for their bargains on Dollar
day, and Saturday will be no excep-
ton to the rule, in fact the local
merchants, according to the commit
tee, are going to give the finest line
Of bargains ever put out.
The bargains will be found in
every line of merchandising, too.
Everybody will be doin' it Saturday,
and dollars are going to look like
they were made out of India rubber,
when it comes to measuring their
purchasing power.
Local trade and visitors, as well,
from the surrounding communities
will find plenty to interest them in
the line of bargains that will be
handed out by the local merchants.
It would be good idea to come
early and be prepared to buy often,
because there's going to be some lay
out Of really truly bargains. For
further information 1t would be wen
to read the ads appearing in tonight
