Washington Broker Main Witness in Probe of the
 Peace News Leak
CONNOLLY STATED HE SENT OUT TIP" ON TRADE ROOM GOSSIPS
Throughout Entire Examination In. vestigating Committee Unable to Get Definite Source of Where
 Stockman Received Knowledge

New York, January 3i.-Francis A. Con- molly, the Washington broker and part ner of R. W. Boiling. a brother-in-law of President Wilson, who. on December 20, gave E. F. Hutton & Co.,, New York brokers, an accurate resume of the Presi- dents peace note 10 hours before it was published, failed in two and half hours of grilling examina tion by the counsel inquisitorial committee today to name the exact source of his information. He spe- officially exonerated Boiling, however, from all blame for the Teak" on the note.
 GOSSIP AND RUMOR
 To the best of his knowledge. MT. Con- molly told the committee repeatedly his principally on gossip and runor' he gathered in his office and deductions he had made from speech he heard the President deliver at Gridiron club din- ner in Washington on December g. In vain did Sherman L. Whipple counsel for the committee. and all of its mem- bers, six of whom are attorneys, attempt to draw from Mr. Connolly the name of single person who gave him any of the information he forwarded to New York.
 Even declarations by Representative Bennett of New York that Mir. Connolly must have been possessed of a remark able gift of prophecy, and that he had strangely worded his resume lin the language of the highest form of states manship" failed to disturb him. Any tclever person., Connolly said, who would ninala in thes right circles in Washington with his ear on the ground could gather much information of great value

FOOD WILL.
WIN WAR
az MIS-. JENNIE WARD WHEELER.
(secretary Lake County Defense
Ccunsel.l

CROWN POINT, IND. oct. 1.-THE
food card campaign is still on; 1t closes
Oct. IS. and it is Jhe duty Of every
woman in the United States to sign one
Of these cards. If they have not already
done 50.
There seems TO he a great misunder-
standing IN regard TO them. They are
merely a pledge to show the food ad-
ministrator that the women of the
country are willing to do their part 70
leIp win the war by saving as much as
possible Of the foodsyuffs most neces-
sary to feed the brave men who have
gone out to fight for the honor Of our
country and the glory OF the flag. In
diana has promised 100000 signed
food cards by Oct IS. Lake county has
had fine record lnSall previous war
work and il viii surely keep up it's
record in this campaign.
The food cards and service cards are
being distributed throu ghout the county
by the women i'm charge of the work
through the schools. clubs and church
organizations. and every woman can
easily obtain them.
The food administrator viii send TO

q card a conservation outfit" consisting
Of a membership card to put in the
window, home card to hang in the
kitchen and a 64-page book Ten Les
sons on Food Conservation" which con-
tains some good recipes which any wom-
an will be glad to get.
One Of these membership cards hangs
In the front window Of the White House
at Washington, showing TO the world
that the first lady of the United States
Is doing her part to conserve the food.
similar cards are displayed in the homes
Of all the cabinet officers. A great
many are asking What are the men do
ing to saver" 1t goes without saying
that the men eat what the women pre-
pare for them and If the women con-
serve the food it necessarily follows
that the men ara doing their part along
chat line.
II you stiu have anything left to can.
dry, pickle or preserve. attend TO it
at once as that is good way to show
your patriotism, and the food admins
traitor assures US that food canned for
home consumption will not be taken by
the government as some are led to be-
lieve
In France, England and Germany the
Deople are not only told what they can
have to eat but how much they can eat
and it is the purpose Of this campai gn
to conserve the FOOD stuffs that no such
action will be necessary in the United
States but if the war keeps up and we
DO not willingly do our part. we may
reach the point as they have in the
warning countries, where we will have
TO stand in line to get a few ounces
of food for the days allowance. We can
hardly imagine such condition in our
grand old United States and with the
many brave men going forth to fight our
battles and the women all pulling to-
gether to furnish thYm with the nee
essary food and clothing. the hope is
that the war will be won before any
such drastic measures are necessary.
In a letter Mr.. Hoover says: The en-
rollment in this campa.Sn Is the yard
stick by which the patriotism Of each
state can be accurately measured. on
Oct. rs. may the word go out to the
million brave boys that every home in
your great state stands pledged to the
vital cause Of food conservation. May
we count on you"

SOME CLEANUP BY
THE UNITED PRESS

Why is The TINES a subscriber to
the United Press.
This has been a question that the
paper has answered often with the rea-
sons in the past five years.
(Ry United Press.)
As the German minister in Mexico
city remarked to the United Press cor
respondent this IS going to be damn
uninteresting" for the opposition.
BUT as fast as new Developments un-
fold in the world war. the United Press
IS SO consistently delivering beats and
scoops. that III spite OF our modesty we
have to mention a few Of them
The first american casualty list for
Europe came By United Press"
Phil Simms, accredited to the British
Armies, scored a complete scoop on the
details of the German air raid on the
American hospitals. and United Press
papers published the names Of the four
men killed three days before the Asso-
ciated Press had them from 4 state
ment given out in Washington Simms
went to the scene of the bombardment,
hled his story from there. and made a
complete cleanup.
The same day United Press papers
were publishing Simms story. the n P.
delivered its clients a story under a
Cambridge, Miss. date stating that a
cable received reading "AlI well" was
interpreted as giving assurance that
the men reported as killed or wounded
We're not members of the Harvard unit.
Unfortunately they were.
A. p. Sunday morning papers such
as the New York Times. World and Sun
reprinted Simms story with credit to
the U. P.
On Sept. q the u. P. had a complete
cleanup out Of Washington on the an
nouncenent revealing former Ambassa-
dor Won Bernstorf as an arch-plotter in
this country while the United States
was still at peace with Germany, and
disclosing his request to Berlin for 500
600 to influence Congress.
The A. P. was beaten more than nine
minutes on the flash; the Hearst service
was simply left at the post.
With the usual L. 2. speed. the Wash
ington bureau was cracking out a com
plete story while the A. p. was getting
out a brief incomplete bulletin. The
main story was followed out OF Wash
ington by q follow from Congress,
carrying statements from various con-
gressional leaders that gave e. p pa
pers a clean sweep over their opposi-
tons
After Pope Benedict issued his peace
appeal there was speculation every
where as to the Interpretation that

should be made of certain parts Of his
message.
When the Vatican amplihed the sp-
peal, it was BY United Press" in tho
form of a special statement from the
papal secretary of state to John Hear
ley the q. P. correspondent in Rome
The first news that the KorniloR re-
volt had collapsed in Russia came BY
United Press"
William G. Shepherd. in Perograd
had a beat Of several hours. and an ex-
elusive interview with Premier Keren-
sky to boot when Kerensky told hira
General KorntloR was ready to sur
render.
But that was only one Of Shepherds
beats during the days in which the fate
Of Russia hung in the balance. He had
an exclusive interview with Foreign
Minister Tereshenko and an exclusive
interview with the commander Of the
woman's Battalion Of Death" Prior 10
this Shepherd sent the first detailed
story Of how these women fought al the
front. after interviewing several of
them.
When the last push" of the British
began on the western front. Simms led
day after day with graphic descriptive
stories Of the lighting. and Of the pro-
gress Of the allied troops.
From the French front, the dis
patches of Henry Wood have told of the
fighting there well ahead of the oppo-
sition
Exclusive interviews such as those
with Andrew Bonar Law, chancellor Of
the excheQuer. beats on such announce
ments as that Of Lord Robert Cecil in
dicating that President Wilson's reply
to the pope would stand as England's
answer, have come from London. with
equally good action from Paris and
other foreign bureaus
On July 81, Ralph Turner, in Tokyo,
put over a clean scoop on the attempt
that was made TO wreck the train on
which Elihu Root and other members Of
the American Mission to Russia were
returning home.
From Washington cracking fast &C
ton is coming in the covering of Arneri-
can angles of the world war. Under
the direction Of Robert J. Bender. the
Washington bureau is maintaining
consistent lead on the big news break
ing there. Carl D. Groet is handling the
big stories from the state Department

SECOND LIBERTY LOAN SHOULD
BE GREATLY OVERsUBsCRIBED
BY A. c. BABIZE.
Manager Investment News, Chicago.

The nrst Liberty Loan was oversub-
scribed largely through patriotism. The
second Liberty Loan should be oversuh-
scribed ten times because no higher
grade, sounder. safer, better invest
ment can or will be ever presented
Compared to a neal estate mortgage, the
document with which the average in
dividual Is most familiar, 1t outclasses
IL as the booded stock outclasses the
common.
Subscription to a 4 per cent govern
mont bond Of the standing of the United
States is a privilege which wage earners
have never enjoyed in the past; il is an
opportunity unique in the history of
this country. That you may understand
let me first tell you what bond is:
A bond is a fractional part Of a mort
gage. An entire issue of bonds-wheth-
er the issue comprises 1000 or loco. 600
bonds-represents the mortgage and
that mortgage is secured by collateral
property frequently far in excess of the
amount represented by the bond issue.
But the bond mortgage applies equally
to each separate bond, whether that
bond be for 500 or for $4,000. Let me
see If can make this a little palmer.
The average mortgage taken by the
resents approximately so per cent of
the entire value of the property--that
Is, on a piece or real property worth
10000 the usual amount OF mortgage
taken would be $4,000; that is $4,000
would be the amount loaned on that
property. When a bond issue is fnan-
ced, however. the collateral property
given to secure the ultimate payment of
the bond issue at maturity is not infre-
quently three four, five times as much
as the amount Of the bond issue. Now.
then where does government bond Is
sue stand relative to ultimate repay
ment at maturity. First mortgage bond
issues rank higher according to the
credit Of the principals bringing out the
issue; also according to the amount Of
collateral property Experimentation
IL put up-to insure payment. This cor
poration bonds are good; municipal
bonds-bonds o. cities and towns-are
considered little better; bonds of state
rank still higher. the government bonds
rank highest.
Why? Because If limited number
of people in community pledge them
