berlin HOPES TO
BECLOUD ISSUES
Italian Statesman Urges Allies To-
Keep Real Issues Before
the People
GREAT FAITH IN AMERICA

London, March 10, (Tuesday)-Re-.
meo Gallanga Stuart, a member Of tho
Italian Chamber of Deputies, and rem,
rcsenting the the Italian cabinet, in ah
address before the American Lunch
con Club today, after ascribing the
Italian disaster last autumn to the
herman paciflst propaganda, declared
that the Central Powers now we're
launching still more insiduous dip}o-
matte offensive against the Entente
Allies by which they hope to becloud
the real issues of the war and thereby
weaken the allied purpose and effort.
"Let us keep the real issues steadi~

put all these ideals into effect. 1t is
certain that we cannot put them jntg.

Let us concentrate on the work inn
mcdiatcly before us lot us untedlp
convince Germany that the Entente is
gong. on with it's whole strength untn
the aims and false ideals Of the Gen.
tral Powers are entirely defeated.
The alliance with the United States
is a great factor in the morale 9! lia'hy
today. The majority of Italians, par.
ticularly the lower classes, know
America better even than they know
England or France In The old days
we used to say we admired Germany
but we loved France, and we some
times added that we both admired
and loved England. The feeling toward
America was like the latter, only morq4
so.
"When you ask an italian what he
thinks Of the situation since Russia
dropped out, he invariably answers:
"But the United States has come in"
"If an Italian had ever been aske6
which he would choose. as an alE>
the United States under President
Wilson, or Russia, under either the
Car or Lcnine, he would have voted
unhesitatingly for the former"
The former French minister OF mis-
sion abroad, Henry Franklin Bouillott
spoke of the detection Of Russia from
the alliance as "thc greatest treason
the world has ever known"
The situation at the prcscn. time,
M. Franklin Boullon believed, is the
gravcst since the war began, ana he
declared there was no doubt that the
Entente is face to face with very
long war.

This is a Friendly Contest

Political rumors of all descriptions
are going the rounds nowadays. One
rumor is that if the present mayor is
reelected he will turn off the fire
company, with one or two exceptions.
Another is Mayor COffey was not born
in Manning. And still another the
Mayor had the seats that were used
by the weary Willies" knocked down.
OF course, all of this is politics, but
sensible people pay no attention to
such rot. This has the appearance of
a drowning man grasping at a straw.
We hope our people will vote as their
Judgment dictates, and not listen to
political tricks that might be pulled.
Everybody in Manning knows both
candidates that are offering for the
mayorship. They also know they are
both gentlemen, and to resort to any
trickery would show bad taste. This
is no state election, but merely CON
test between home folks. SO let's say
nothing disparaging about any candi-
date, and we will remain friends for
all time.

FEDERAL SURVEY SHOWS
MORE SUGAR CONSUMED

Returns from the first war emcr
gcncy food survey made by the u. S.
Department Of Agriculture Indicate
that the amount of sugar consumed in
1917 was about 1873 pounds per capita
whereas the average annual consum-
tion for the 5-year period ending in
1916 was 84.7 pounds per capita. The
evident increase in consumption, says
the Department, is due in part to the
increased manufacture for export of
commodities like condensed milk and
to an increase in population coupled
with an increased consumption by in
dividuals and to an increase in con-
sumers' stocks.

AMERICA WILL AWAIT
ANSWER FROM HOLLAND
Reply from Tie Hague to Allies De-
mand for Datch Ships Expected
in Washington Today
NO DELAY BEYOND TUESDAY
If Holland Answers Unfavorably

Raised over 100000
Tons of Shipping

Washington, March 17.-Holland's
reply to the American and British de-
mand that voluntary shipping agree
ment be put into effect despite Ger
many's opposition, in default of which
the Dutch vessels in American and
British waters would be seized under
ancient law, will be awaited before
further action is taken by the United
States Government.
Dispatches from The Hague tonight
indicated that the reply was en- route,
but probably would not reach Wash
ington before noon tomorrow, when
the time limit set expires. AS it is
believed now, Holland will assent to
the Allied proposals, officials here de-
sire to delay action SO that transfer
by agreement may be substituted for
seizure, although in either case they
would be entirely within their rights
under international law.
Tuesday the Limit
At any rate the addition of 1,OO0,-
900 tons Of shipping to the resources
engaged in the fight for world free
dom will not be delayed beyond Tues
day.
The American flag will be raised
over the 100000 tons in American
waters as soon as the transfer is made
and the vessels will be put into the
food transport service.
1t was stated officially tonight that
there has been no change in the terms
of the American ultimatum, which Of
fered Holland ample food supplies and
sufficient tonnage. Whether or not as
sent is given to the terms, the ships
will be acquired by the Allies tomor-
row or Tuesday.
Concessions to be made by Holland
to Germany in the matter of barges
for internal commerce were not dis
cussed by officials.

are best suited for the position of
principals. Then again many of the
teachers have qualified for govern
mcnt positions, and are continuing to
look IN tina tdirection. Also, the vari-
Gus business departments are calling
young ladies. All this will tend to
create a shortage in the number of
our teachers, and which must be large

Let all who are capable take the

The increased cost of living as a re-
suit of the war is out of ali proportion
to the usual salaries paid our teach
ers. This is tending 70 drive many
from the profession. TO meet the con
dition, trustees in most places will be
called upon to make very considerable
raises in salaries. This they are not
well able to do for the lack of suff-
cient funds. The funds must be in
creased, or the terms cut down.
The latter is not best, for the reason
that our terms are not long enough
at best. More money then will be
needed. Taxation is and has been the
popular and proper way, hence unless
your districts are already levying it's

Generous Offer

London, Friday, March 15.--In view
of the decision of the Entente Allies
to make use Of Dutch shipping now in
Allied ports, Reuters Limited pub
fishes note comparing the generous
offer with the Allies, before deciding
to take over the ships, made to Hol-
land, with the German practice of
either bottling up Dutcn ships or if
they came out, sinking them with no
replacement being promised or in
tended.
"In considering the decision of the
Allies the note says, "some reference
IS needed to the past course of the
British commercial negotiations with
Holland. Early in the war Holland
ceased to supply us with any of her
products except at exorbitant prices,
that it was only after prolonged nego-
tiations that she agreed to sell us a
fair share on terms which could be
seriously entertained.
Locked Up Her Ships
"When the German unrestricted
warfare was announced Holland alone
OF all the northern neutraIs did moth
ing to counteract these lawless Ger
man methods, but locked up all her
own ships in her own ports or other
ports.
"As is known, chiefly owing to the
action of the 'Netherland Government,
negotiations for the use of Dutch
ships has been drawn out and delayed.
The British and Allied Governments
feel the time now has passed for such
dilatory negotiations.
"The Allies offered the Dutch as
liberal a measure Of rationing as the
world shortage and the Allies require
ments will permit, against number
of concessions from Holland, of which
the most valuable was the use of
ships.
at should be stated that the barge
tonnage to be replaced at the disposal
by the Dutch is at any rate equal to
the ocean-going tonnage which the
Allies would get under the proposed
shipping agreement. Germany has
some barge tonnage, but not crews
enough to work it satisfactorily and
so wants Dutch crews.
"In view of all these circumstances
the Allied Governments have no
course left to them but that indcat-

A canvass of the schools of this
county was made some days ago in
the interest Of organizing them into
membership in the Junior Red Cross
work. Several schools have raised the
necessary amount and have applied
for membership which will be com
pleted in few days.
The other schools should take steps,
if they have not already done so, to
organize. When any school has raised
an amount equal to twenty-five cents
for each pupil on it's register, send to
Mrs. j. X. Breedin, or f. J. Browne,

OF Interest to Teachers, Trustees and
Others

Teachers and trustees throughout
the county arc urged TO give the pro-
per attention to the filing of the an

reports should be correct, and not
mere make-shifts in order to get the
last paywarrant cashed. The county
superintendent can rafusZ to paw the
claim unless the report required is
properly made cut and sCnt in with
last claim. Trustees should see that
the last claim is so marked that he
may know what is the last.
Field Day programs are being sent
out to each school this week. All
should read the suggestions and act
promptly, in case the school desires to
have any or all Of it's pupils carry
flags in the parade. These flags can
be bought very cheap.
Everyone who is competent to teach
school, and who desire to teach the
coming year should take steps to dual
ify at the examination in May. The
war has called many of our young
men teachers into service, and will be
calling more. The positions filled by
them must OF a necessity be filled by
