VATICAN SUBMITS PEACE PLAN

Another Appeal for Peace From
Pope Standardization of Ar
mament, Freedom of Seas and No
Retaliatory Struggle After the
War for World Commercial SUI
premacy Are Foundation Stones of
Pontiff's Plan
Press Summary, Aug. Is.
To the warning nations of the earth
has come another appeal for peace
from Pope Benedict.
The foundation stones of the plan
of the pontiff for world tranquility
are reduction of ornaments and free
dom of the seas and that there shall
be no retaliatory struggle after the
war for world commercial suprem-
acy. Specific proposals made to the
belligerents, unofficial reports say,
include the restoration Of Belgium,
Serbia and Rumania. The questions
of Alsace-Lorraine, Trent, Trieste
and Poland, it is suggested, should
be adjusted peacefully. The pope's
plan also calls for the return to Ger
many of all her colonies.
In July, 1915, Pope Benedict made
his first appear for peace. At that
time the pontiff invited all friends
of peace to join with him in his de-
sire to bring hostilities to an end.
Almost simultaneously with the
latest appeal of Pope Benedict, Chi
ma entered the ranks of the bellig-
erents by formally declaring war up
on Germany and Austria-Hungary.

FLOUR TO BE CHEAPER
And Farmers Will be Paid a Fair
Price for Wheat-Wheat to be Con-
trOiled From Producer to Baker

And Farmers Will be Paid a FAN
Price for Wheat-Wheat to be Con
troiled From Producer to Baker
Washington Dispatch, Aug. 10.
Plans for controlling the distribu
ton Of wheat and for regulating the
manufacture and sale of flour were
completed today by the food admin
istration. Creation of a wheat con
troll board will be announced as soor
as President Wilson has approved its
porsonel.
This board, comprising officials of
the food administration and leading
men from the grain and milling in
dustries, will be made responsible for
putting into effect measures an
nounced last night by the food ad-
ministration. Regulations governing
the control Of wheat from the time it
leaves the producer until il reaches
the baker will go into effect Sep
TENDER 1.
In fixing a price to be paid pro-
ducers for wheat, the food admins
tration, it was said today, will seek
to give the farmer a fair price and
at the same time name a figure which
will permit the public to receive
bread at price much below that now
prevailing. Licenses will be granted
to flour mills only on condition that
they charge a fair and reasonable
price for their product.
AS soon as the wheat and flour in
dustries have been put under regu-
lation the food administration plans
to extend it's control to bakeries,
hoping to reduce the price now paid
for bread. There is no present plan
to put cereals other than wheat un-
der immediate control, although su-
gar may soon be under government
supervision.
The price of the 1917 crop of wheat
to the farmer will be fixed by a COM
mittee Of which President Garfield
of Williams college, will be chair
man. Congress set a price of 81 on
the 1918 crop.

GENERAL NEWS ITEMS
Figures made public by the Dep:

Figures MADE pubic by the depart
ment of Commerce at Washington
last week Of gold imports during the
fiscal year ended June 80 last show
that in that period the United States
received more than $977,000,O00 Of
the metal. These are said to be by
far the largest receipts of any SINH
lar period in the country's history.
They exceed the total gold imports
for the entire 12-year period before
the war. The hugh total for the
1917 fiscal year probably represents
a climax which terminated with the
entrance of the United States into
the war, for with that entrance there
came sudden change.
Considerable damage to property
was caused at South End by the near
ly 40 bombs dropped upon the town.
Two men were injured at Rockford,
but four bombs dropped on Margate,
in Kent, did little damage.

9 BILLION MORE NEEDED
Additional $4,000, 00CS0O0 Must be
Raised for War Expe lditures to
June 80, 1918

June ~, 1918 ..
Washington Dispatch, Aug. Is.
Congressional leaders were in
formed by Secretary McAdoo today
that it would be necessary for them
to authorize at this and the winter
session of Congress an additional
$9,000,000,000 for war expenditures
to June 80, 1918, including further
loans to the Allies. Five billions in
bonds already have been authorized
and a $2,000,000,000 war tax bill is
pending now in the Senate.
Within an hour after the Secre-
tary had conferred with Representa-
tive Kitchin, chairman of the House
Ways and Means committee, plans
were under way for raising the mon
ey. A meeting of the Ways and
Means committee was called for Au-
gust %, and arrangements made for
the House, now taking three-day re-
cess, to resume the regular meet
ings on August n and expedite fin
ancial legislation.
Issuance of between $4,000, 100000
and $4,OOO,0OO,O0O in bonds to meet
new allied loans, authorization of an
additional $5O0,O00,000 in taxes to
be added to the bill before the Sem
ate, probably will be proposed by the
committee and agreed to by the
House. No delay in either authori-
cation is anticipated. The bond is
sue will be agreed to within day,
Mr. Kitchin predicted, ard the $780,
100000 probably will be added to the
revenue bill in conference with the
approval of the House.
The plan to have the remainder of
the $9,O00,OO0,O00 authorized at the
next session Of Congress, beginning
in December. Whether it will be
raised by bonds or additional taxa
ton Or in what preparation of both,
! is undecided.
Announcement that authorization
of bond issue to meet an allied
! loan was desired came as a surprise
to most of the congressional leaders.
They thought the conference the
Secretary sought with Mr.. Kitchin
was for the purpose of discussing
raising possibly an additional ST.
! 900 100000 or $2,000,000,0O for
emergency domestic needs. They
planned to authorize it, go home and
raise the remaining $4,000,000,00
or 100000 it was estimated
the war would cost this fiscal year
at the next session.

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply a few drops then lift corns OF
calluses off with fingers

calluses off with fingers
no pain
No humbug! Any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without
a particle of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
trifle, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn Or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. In
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callus will loosen
and can be lifted off with the fling
ers.
This drug freezon~ doesn't eat out
the corns or calluses but shrivels them
without even irritating the surround
ing skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no
soreness or smarting when applying
it or afterwards. If your druggist
don't have freezone have him order it
] for you.

LNRST let US learn something Of the
l. American Institute Of Architects. This
is an association of representative members
OF the profession from all parts Of the
country. It has done much to assist the
American public in all its efforts concern
ing the beautifying or improvement of its
land. 1t has helped us to see the financial
beneht in well-designed buildings, the in
crease in property values by relaying out
cities with a thought to the beautiful. It
has made popular a high ethical standard
OF practice in the profession and has clari-
ned the relations between the public and
the architect by painstakingly arriving at a
minimum schedule Of charges for the serv-
ices OF an architect for various classes Of
building This schedule has been adjudGed
fair and is accepted without question by the
Government bv corporations and by in
dividuals who have been brought into close
touch with the working of the architects
The purpose Of this schedule is not to
impose certain charges on the public or on
architects but rather is suggestive in its
intent. II furnishes a general basis on
which the owner and architect can more
easily work out their financial agreement.
II an architect makes the customary
charge for his work and goes to the usual
necessary expense to do this work properly,
he Will have remaining as a profit an
amount which is conceded to be anything
but large. 1t follows that when an archi-
tect will take work as a rule for less than
this usual charge, he is dishonest or else
is not acquainted with the kind and amount
or service which the owner needs and which
the architect can and should give
We quote the following from the schedule
Of the American Institute of Architects:
The architects professional services con.
sist of the necessary conferences, the prep
araton OF preliminary studies, working
