Prominent New Yorker Concludes Fatherland 0utclassed by Men

PEOPLE WILL FIND OUT
Nation Also Staggering Under the Financial
 Burden That Is
 Too Great.

NEW YORK. May 22.-One of the leading German bankers in the me tropolis says:
 II regard the war as approaching an end. Germany cannot go much further. She has now assumed a if nancial burden under which she is staggering and she cannot match the Allies war machine on her west ern front. She is outclassed there in men. munitions and supplies.
 Germany today is financially stag gering under a war burden. the in terest on which is greater than the five per cent. levy she made upon the entire capital of the empire pre- ceding the war. and it took her three years to collect that five per cent. levy.
 For more than two years I main tained that Germany could not be licked. but know different now. Germany is licked. It is only ques- tion of when her people will find it out. It is the business of finance to know it little in advance"

Road Commission Clears Slides AWay-Road Work Progresses
 Elsewhere.

The road work in this section is rapidly going ahead and the roads are being put ineeetcxnll cmfwyppmwfy being rapidly put in excellent shape for the seasons business under the direction of J. c. Hayes, superin. tendent of roads for this section.
 MT. Hayes stated this morning that after the crew have been working for five days they have completed the work on the Perseverance road and that thoroughfare will be opened for traffic between Juneau and the mine tonight. The road was in fair ly good shape considering the fact that a number of snow slides Oc- cured during the winter which cov- cred it in places to a great depth. Around the Cape Horn section the road was covered with debris from the rock bluffs above.
 Tomorrow morning the crew which has been working on the upper end of the road will be moved to the town end and the sidewalk to the ball grounds, which was carried away by the air draft from the big slide last winter, will be replaced. The planking on the Juneau end of the road will also be renewed.
 Tomorrow the crew which has been working on the city end of the Mendenhall road will be moved to Salmon creek where they will go in to camp. The work has been com pleted and the crew will labor be- tween Salmon creek and Menden- hall. Later the work of building up the new section of road from Men, denhall to Aux Bay will be taken.
 The repair parts for the big truck which has been out of commission will arrive on the Admiral Farragut and the car will soon be in commis- sion again. While carrying a large load recently the truck stripped it's differential gear and it was neces- sary to send to Seattle for repairs for damaged parts.

Tho G3tua ton reveals how well intelli-
gent, honest and progressive men and
women can serve the race, especially
u 34nsural sectiouo OF the south,
where he masses are In need Of 1 loyal
leadership
The Pender county commencement Of
the colosed schools, which was recently
held here, showed that the influence Of
the Burg1w Normal and Industrial
school has effectively brought about
such results that the relationship and
cooperation between the races are bet
ter. There Is tendency on the part Of
the educational officials to give their
Afro-American patrons better school IA
As an evidence OF these facts during
this school term, the schools among
our people had an efficient supervisor
for the county in the person of Mrs. s.
F. Smith, who did splendid work. She
has shown what we, can accomplish II
given-a fair chance.
There were about 1900 children In
the parade on the commencement day.
and tho exhibits, literary contests and
enthustastic demonstration on the part
Of over 1000 farmers and their fami-
lies from every section of the county
showed the result Of helpful and intel
ngent leadership. Following this event
were the closing exercises Of the Bur
gaw Normal and Industrial school.
Again q wholesome demonstration was
made, and registered the untiring zeal
and Efforts OF the better element Of the
race to go forward.
The man who Is largely responsible,
for this constructive work in eastern
North Carolina is the Rev. G. F. Pope,
who Il unassuming, Intelligent and
strikingly forceful In the activities
which have resulted In procuring q
progressive supervisor for the rural
schoolA New impetus has been given

The Rev. G. F. Pope is a native Of
this state and was reared In Hertford
county. After graduating from Waters
Normal institute, Winton, N. c., he en-
tered the college and theological de-
partnents Of Shaw, university. After
graduating from this university he
taught two years at Waters Normal In
stitute and later specialized at Chicago
university. He taught theology at
Shaw university for eleven years. In
1916, he accepted the principalship Of
the Burxaw Normal and Industrial
school. which has greatly increased In
influence and efficiency the past year.
