ADVISE AGAINST
RELATIVES GOING
TO CANTONMENTS

St. Louis Aug. l0.-At a conference
Of Red Cross workers held in st.
Louis a decided stand was taken
against relatives going to canton.
ment towns to be near soldiers. It
was pointed out that the practice
injured the morale of the soldier,
brought about impoverished eondi-
tions in his family and in some in
stances created a condition that
threatened to disrupt the family.
It was agreed at this meeting to
ask chairmen OF all Home Service
Sections to warn relatives against
visiting camps. This may hest be
done by telling men about to depart
for camp the danger Of having rela-
tives visit them and asking that they
advise relatives against it,
The Red Cross has been called on
to aid thousands OF stranded wives
and mothers who left home and rela-
tives to visit camps. The efforts
thus expended by the Red Cross could
be diverted to aiding dependents who

GERMAN FINANCE


The German war debt is now
so large that all the money raised
by taxation does not suffice to
pay the interest on it. says the
McAlester News Capital The
German financial situation, there
fore, is plain enough, just figure
out what happens to any business
institution when it hasn't enough
income to pay the interest on the
money it owes.
The imperial ring of freeboot-
ers in Berlin worked out Il very
simple solution to the problem
They were going to make their
enemies pay off the principal, in
the form of Whopping big in
demnity. At present even the
imaginative kaiser is probably be-
ginning to class that indemnity

all who have bought German war
bonds-mostly deluded German
subjects, of eourse-and vaguely
wonder who will lend Germany
