Striking Booklet Proposed.

One Of the most striking booklets
to be used in the campaign is based
on a poster which the German gov
eminent recently distributed among
it's people in an effort to belittle the
significance of the entrance of the
United States into the war. 1t is a
forcible example of the falsehoods to
which Germany will stoop in order to
brace up the tagging morale of its
people.
Thousands of soldiers will partici-
pate in liberty loan demonstrations
throughout the campaign. The War
Department has issued an order re-
leasing soldiers from training camps
for short periods that they may aid
in advertising the loan, and the Navy
Department has asked it's personnel
to Cooperate as fully as possible with
the liberty loan committee. Wound
ed soldiers and sailors also have been
released from hospitals to aid in the
speaking campaign.

that, SO far as Turkey was concerned
the war would end this winter.
If Bulgaria throws up her hands she
cuts the vital cord which connects
Germany and Asia. She deals a death
blow to Germany's Asiatic ambition.
If Turkey also raises the white flag
she will enable the allied armies in
Macedonia and Palestine to be shifted
to the western theater of war. The
detection Of Bulgaria alone would
make it possible for the great allies

PATRIOTIC APPEAL
AT LOAN MEETING
Vice President Marshall
Makes Stirring Address.
Miss Farrar Sings.
PRESS CLUB IN CHARGE

With great enthusiasm the fourth
liberty loan drive in the District Of
Columbia was Informally opened last
night at great meeting under the
auspices of the National Press Club.
in the auditorium of the new Central
High School. The large hall was filled.
Vice President Marshall made stir
ring address in advocacy Of the gov
new bond issue, in which
he wildly pictured the present war
and the necessity for the
successful fotation of this loan. Ger
aldine Farrar, grand opera star, who
shared the honors with the Vice Pres
ident. sang the national anthems OF
this country and France.
Film Show Feature.
The entertainment included also the
first showing in public of a number
of films made for the liberty loan
campaign by motion picture favorites.
These films will be exhibited through
out the country during the next three
weeks with the view to stimulating
interest In the loan.
Brief addresses were made by Frank
the fourth loan; Labert st. Clair. as
sistant director. who personally man
aged the meeting last night; Gus
KarRer, president of the club, and
Earl Goodwin, in charge of the clubs
loan campaign.
Vice President Applauded.
When Vice President Marshall
touched upon the peace talk he was
loudly applauded as he said:
II have nothing to do about making
the terms of peace. Nobody has any,
thing to do about making the terms
of peace but the sober judgment and
conscience of the American people.
When it is made, it will be made as
Grant made it with Lee. There we
fought with Christian. He pillaged
no home. he violated no women. he
killed no little children, he ravaged
no sanctuaries. He fought like a
gentleman, and yet when it came to
the question of the terms for peace
the question was unconditional sur
render. And now when the offer of
peace comes from an iron-shod despot,
who kicks 5helpless children and de-
crepit age with the hobnails of his
boots, what shall the answer be? 1t
can only be unconditional surrender.
If this thing does not wind up so THAT
he can never again bring fear and
desolation to the human kind, then
this thing will not wind up right.
The Vice President, referring to the
fourth loan. said: TT is a shame that
anybody is compelled to say a word to
have the last dollar of it taken to-
morrow morning. What is this war
about? It is moro than the mere SEN
timent of democracy. 1t Is the senti-
ment of comradeship. and fellowship,
and good will.

time has been given to preparing

well into the night ever since that
time. and the opening Of the fourth

l. Of Resolution by One
Vote Forecast.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The senate
failed again today to reach a vote
on the house resolution proposing
submission to the states of the Su-
zan B. Anthony woman suffrage
amendment to the constitution. Al
ter a day of conferences and debates
the senate adjourned until tomor-
row, but with little likelihood of a
vote before Saturday, if then.
Absence of senator's favoring the
resolution and defections among its
advocates were reported to have suf-
fered an unexpected protraction of
debate contributed to postponement
of action and to the disappointment
of the immense throng of spectators.
Some senators supporting the
resolution admitted tonight privately
that without any further change, the
resolution would be defeated by one
vote. They said the latest private
polls showed that the senate stood
"a to SO in favor of the resolution,
lust one short of two-thirds ms

Forms Basis Of Test
Case in Police Court

"Mogey' Bernstein, was arrested
on the carnival grounds last night
and brought to the station, where
he was charged with operating a
gambling device. He was imme-
diately released on bond and or
dered to appear in police court this
morning.
The device" referred to is the
paddle wheel, which police heads
say, according to city ordinance, is
prohibited. "Mogy" was indignant
over his arrest, as he says he has
operated similar devices before for
the benefit of various war activities
and the Red Cross, and asserts the
proceeds of the wheel on the
grounds were to 60 toward financing
the military parade next week.
This is considered a test case,
however, and will come before
Police Judge Fitzgerald for de-
cision.
According to Bernstein, this is
the kind Of "stuff" the people want.

GERMANS DAzED
BY FEROC|TY OF
AMERICAN dash
Huns Fail to Discover Intent
to Attack Until They Are
Overwhelmed by Rush
Of Troops.

With the American Army on the
Champagne Front, Sept. 26.-The
assumption of the general staff that
the Germans had not discovered the
intention of the Americans to at
tack was proved by the earlier
phases of the fighting today. Ap-
parently dazed by the suddenness
and ferocity of the artillery pre-
paration, the German artillery reac-
ton was slow in being registered.
1t never recovered its balance.
From the minute the Americans
swarmed forward the inferiority of
the enemy resistance was marked.
Early this morning the enemy had
laid down artillery fire calculated to
cover local raid. That incident
was quickly forgotten in the mag
nitude of the operations that fol-
lowed.
One division reports the capture
of twenty II guns and plentiful sup
plies of ammunition. The check on
the amount of booty has not yet
been taken. but every report indi-
Gates that the amount of it will be
large.
Officer prisoners say there was
much enemy perplexity as to the
exact point of attack, but they say
they were unaware that one was i'm
pending.
