Rome, Aug. 15.-Peace proposals
made by Pope Benedict have been de-
livered to all the belligarent govern
ments.
The Pope suggests restoration Of
Belgium, Serbia and Rumania, and
peaceful solution Of the problems Of
Alsace-IIorraine. Trent, Trieste and
Poland, according to reports received
from Vatican sources.
The Pope's peace appeal proposes
that there be no annexations and no
lndemnities except in special cases,
such as Belgium and Serbia; the re-.
turn to Germany Of her colonies in ex-
change for the occupied departments
Of France; freedom Of the seas; dis
armament, and the formation Of q Su-
preme Court Of Arbitration for the set.
tlement Of future international dis.
putes. -
Washington, Aug. 15.-An unofficial
outline of Pope Benedict's peace pro-
posals received here discloses that tho
pontiff includes some of the princi-
pies of world peace for which Presi.
dent Wilson has declared.
Among the Pope's proposals are re-
duction of armaments, freedom of the
seas and that there shall be no retail
atory struggle after the war for world
commercial supremacy These are re.
garded as the foundation stones of the
Pope's plan.
In eloquent language the pontiff de-
scribes the terrible condition existing
in Europe, which he declares is head
ed for destruction unless the bellig.
erents are willing to listen to the ap-
peals Of disinterested friends to cease
q suicidal war. Such conditions, the
pope feels, amply Justify him in TAX
ing the present opportunity to suggest
what may be. he hopes, at least q
foundation upon which peace negotia-
tions may be initiated.
At best Pope Bsnedict's proposals
are only suggested ~ = rough basis
for such negotiations and he realizes
that the details in all their complexity
must be worked out patiently and in
a spirit Of Cancellation by the belliS.
erents themselves.
Unqualified approval Of President
Wilson's plan for the avoidance Of fu.
ture wars by some form Of interna-
tional Organizations which shall have
behind 1t the necessary power to en-.
force its Judgments, is given by Pope
Benedict, who declares that along
with such 4 splendid project must 90
an effective arrangement for reduc-
ton Of ornaments to point just suf-
ficient for defensive purposes or to
carry out the mandates Of the world
court.
1t is inconceivable. the pope holds.
that any permanent peace can be
maintained unless the various PED
pies are willing to gather in an amity
founded upon a recognition Of ma
tional rights.

Dr. c. F. Rathbun to Spend Week in This Section Di-
 recting Campaign

! c. F. Rathbun, D. V. S., of the .bu-
 reau of animal industry of the Unite1
 States department of agriculture, has
 arrived at Pine Bluff, and is doing some work here in the tick eradica- ton campaign, preliminary to the
 establishment of his permanent head quarters in Little Rock to direct the campaign in this and adjacent coun- ties.
 pr. Rathbun will devote virtually all of next week to a tour of the northern portion of the county, where some progress already has been made in the fight against tie Texas cattle fever tick, and he plans to so con-
 duct the campaign that all that por-
 ton of the county will be provided
 with dipping vats'. so that every head
 of stock in that section may be
 dipped and protected from the rav- ages of the tick, which consumes 30
 per cent. of the nourishment received by the cattle.
 With the northern end of the coun- ty fully protected, Dr. Rathbun will
 carry the campaign into the other
 half of the county, and into the couri- ties of Lincoln and Grant, gradually
 extending his field of operations until
 all the Pine Bluff territory is receiv- ing the benefits of the most modern methods of fighting the costly pest.

 Loan to Allies Popular.
 All doubts that may have been en- tertained as to the popularity of the proposed loan to the allies were swept away with the voting down, 217 to 3, of the proposal of Representative TOwner made at the outset of the ses- sion, to strike out the $3,O00,OO0 900 loan feature, with view of having it authorized later with provision for congressional participation in it's ad- ministration. MT. Towner was not opposed to the loan, but drew the fire of the supporters of the plan as much as if he had been.
 Representative Rainey assailed the proposal and pictured France, a friend in need of the United States, suffering while congress quibbled over the terms of the loan. Repre- sentative Fitzgerald followed with the declaration that the question of main taining American rights and not the possibility of the loan being returned was the question that faced congress. Representative Mann urged that this country could not help the allies with men or naval equipment now, but could help them with money. and should do it.
