AMERICANS OF GERMAN BIRTH SUPPORT LOAN
 
Every Trace of the Hyphen Eliminated by These Pa
 triotic Citizens.

Every trace of the hyphen has been eradicated by those unpatriotic citi- zens who are using their influence and standing with American citizens of German blood to obtain universal support for the Third Liberty Loan.
 The leaders in the circles that were oAce called German-American but that have proclaimed themselves straight-American since the declara- tion of war, have thrown their whole strength into the Third Liberty Loan campaign. These leaders have reject ed the use of the word German in any form in connection with their work. As Americans they formula ted an appeal to all Americans and to all persons in America, no matter what their blood or citizenship, to support the Third Liberty Loan to the utmost.
 The twenty-five men who formula ted this appeal bear names that testi- fly as to their blood only less strong ly than their actions testify as to their Americanism. They are the committee of twenty-five men select ed by Ludwig Nissen at the request of Benjamin Strong, Chairman of the Liberty Loan Committee.
 MT Nissen is chairman of the com mittee. Karl Wilhelm is secretary. The members are: John F. Becker, vice-president of the Uulmer Brewing 1 Co.,; Borough President Henry Bruck- | ner, of the Bronx; Hubert Cillis, president of the Guardian Life h. surance Company; Rudolph Erbslch; | Charles Froeb, president of the Ger man Savings Bank; William Forster, president of the German Liederkranz; i A. Greine, president of the United Singers of Brooklyn; Justice Leonard Giegerich, of the Supreme Court; Ju- Illus Holz, president of the German Herold Co.,; Edward H. Henrici, pres | ident of the Freie Presse Co.,; Public | Service Commissioner F. J. H. Kracke; Adolph Kuttroff; Lieutenant-Co Herman A. Metz, of the Fourteenth | Regiment, New York Guard; Dock | Commissioner Henry A. Meyer; Karl | w. Neuhoff; BsEoard H. Ridder, president of the New York Staats- 1 Zeitung Co.,; Hugo H. Ritterbusch, president of the Arion Society; Bor- ough President Edward Riegelmann, of Brooklyn; F. A. Ringler; Oscar Seitz, president of the German Jour nal Co.,; George Semler, president of the George R. Borgfeldt Co.,; Dr. G.
 B. Seyfarth, president of the Arioin Society of Brooklyn; Arthur Seyfarth, managing editor of the German Jour nal; Frederick Weidner, president of the Weidner Publishing Company.
 The committee voted unanimously to make it's field of activity as broad
 one as is indicated by the name adopted, '"The Liberty Loan Commit
 tee Associates"

OUR DEFENSE

Our boys are defending this country on the high seas and on the land. Our own defense against a common enemy is to keep the system clean by ridding the body of the toxins, or poisons, which are bred in the intestines. When you feel tired, sleepy, headachy, when your breath is offensive, or pimPles ap- pear on the face and neck, 1t is time to recognize the danger and protect your bodily health by taking a good laxative or liver medi- cine.
 The machinery of the body needs to be oiled, kept in good condition, just as the guns or machinery of a ship. Why should a human person

SCHOONERS TO PASS OUT WITH
 RAISE IN PRICE

The knell of the big beer schoon- CTS has been sounded and while schooners will be served across the bar, they will be mere shadows of their former selves. And the reason for that is that the brewers have gone up on their prices to the deal CTS. There was a time when a bar rel of beer cost $4.13.
 The price has mounted steadily, until it got to $s a barrel. On Apr&l 1, the price was boosted one more 6offar, making the cost per bar rel of beer, almost double what it was before prices began to climb. A prominent dealer said yesterday that the price for each glass of beer will not be raised but It will be necessary to cut down the size of the glasses probably about a half.
 Nor is this all. Dealers can not ge,
 much beer as they want now. The amount which a dealer is permitted ! buy is 80 per cent. less than he

THIRD LIBERTY LOAN TO MATURE
 IN TEN YEARS

Here are the terms of the Third Liberty Loan:
 Everybody will be interested in them for they show how payment will be made by all people who subscribe under the governments plan.
 When your subscription blank is turned in, if you expect to follow the governments terms, you will make payment of per cent. of the total amount of bonds subscribed for.
 On May 2S you will pay an addi- tional 20 per cent. and S5 per cent. on July IS while the final payment of 40 per cent. will be due Aug. 15.
 This plan of payment is the one which will be followed by all so-call- ed large subscribers.
 But the average man in the factory and store will take advantage of the plan inaugurated on the first loan by the Bridgeport banks and will pay for his bonds in weekly sums.
 Each of the savings banks will ex- tend the weekly payment privilege tc all corners for the Third loan. It will make easy the work of paying for a S1O0 bond; $2 per week for exmaple How is the loan going to go II Bridgeport?
 Great; that is certain. From Saturday on the button o1 the Third Loan is going to be the true American decoration. Look for it l note it on the policemen and the fire | men-and then turn in your subscrip. ton and wear it yourself.
 Even better-turn in that sub scription at the meeting at City Hal eReen Saturday afternoon.

may want. For instance, Ii a dealer puts in an order for 50 barrels or beer, the brewer will cut 30 per cent off the order before shipping 1t. Brewers claim that they have been forced to raise the price and to cut down the supply sent to each dealer because of the war conditions. They are unable to get as much grain as +hev need to make the beer, as it IS used in larger quantities for 1000 than ever before, and they must pay higher prices for it as well. These two facts, the brewers say, warrant them in their action toward the deal CTS.
 Beer is not the only kind of liquor that is jumping, however. The price of whiskey is climbing with the eel erity of the mercury on a hot sum- mer's day. A dealer said yesterday that on March T he was paying just 65 cents less a quart for whisKey than he was compelled to pay for the same quality of whiskey on April Z.
 Truly, these are sad times for the drinking man.

LAST OF BRITISH
 ROTHSCH|LDS IS
 DEAD IN LONDON

London, April 5-The late Alfred de Rothschild, the last of the Brit ish branch of the great banking family, was one of the best known characters in London society. His part in the work of the ancient house which has now passed into the back ground as @ power in British com merce was only nominal. He was principally an art collector and cul- tivator of friendships. He never married, and his will which was pub lished this week carries out the gen. eral ideas of his career. His estate amounted to $7,500,000, which was not much for a Rothschild, but he had given away money freely in his lifetime.
 This amount, with the exception of small bequests to nephews, goes to his personal friends. The main part is left to Lord and Lady Carnarvon who were associated with him in his art hobbies. Lord Dorchester and Lady Herbert each receive $125,000, and Lady Curzon, the Kentucky widow of ! an Argentine magnate, who was mar ried to Lord Curzon last year, is re- membered with $50,00O, with 75,OOO for her three children.
 There are large gifts to some twen- ty other persons including the Mar quis Several who was a friend of King Edward and the last Minister to Great Britain of the Portuguese monarchy.
 MT. Rothschild's town house and | art works go to the Countess of Car
 narvon, and his country estate to his | nephew Major Lionel Rothschild, f who is head of the third generation l of the family.
 MT. Alfred, as he was called, was l a we'll known figure because he wore
 more old-fashioned clothes and clung
 to old fashioned WaYs of living
