By Fred 5. Ferguson

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the Americans on the Metz
front, Sept. Is. = Prtsident Wilson S
sharp reply to Austria clearly reflects
the sentiments of the American army
toward peace negotiations.
From he highest generals to the low
est doughboys, the determination is
to whip the boches soundiy. The only
fear expressed since July is that the
Germans may escape licking by some
trick.
The Austrian proposal is regarded
as such a trick-the first squeal from
the central powers diplomats, the same

Dayonet.
The American soldier is determined
to get on German soil. In other words,

Buy good clothes
for true economy

'The best is the cheapest" IAN ancient
wisdom; the deep truth of it is now be-
ing made clearer. Clothes made of right
materials in the right way last longer
and look better; you pay more for them,
but they cost less than poor stuff.
The reason we talk about
Bishop All-Wool Clothes
$2Oto $40
Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes
$25 to $50
And say that if you need clothes they're the
ones you ought to buy, is because the long
wear and satisfaction you get makes them
the least expensive clothes we know of.

Jim BAGBY WANTS
$4,000 SALARY IN
LONG-TERM PAPERS

NEW ORLEANS. March 1.-sarGe
Jim Bagby will not be a member OF the
Cleveland Indians this season All he
has demanded of Jim Dunn is three
year contract at $1,000 a year. That's
why he will not be with the Indians, at
least not until he changes radically his
ideaseof big league salaries In these
days Of European warfare
It's true that Bagby led the Cleveland
twirlers in games won last season. but
fits also true that II the Indians had
scored as many runs behind Stanley
CovelesIde as they did for Jim. it's
doubtful II the Pole would have lost
half the number OF games charged
against Bagby. In other words, the In
diaps were unusually generous to Jim
in scoring runs. especially in the TWEEN
ty-fiye victories credited to the Sarge
IN which they averaged better than
six counters to the contest
It's only natural that Bagby's team
mates would be glad TO have him rejoin
them as he is looked upon as a consider
able asset to the cause OF the Cleveland
club in the pennant fight, but knowing
how far and square Jim Dunn treated
them all last season they regard Bagby's
stand in the light Of ingratitude and jim
isn't getting any sympathy from any OF
his fellow Indians in his demand for
more money.
