cabinet of President Wilson, make ap-
the fourth liberty loan by full and
oversubscription of the s6,ooQ,00o.o 900
called for by the United States Treas
ury Department.
This appeal is urgent at this time,
when the influenza epidemic has caused
a suspension of almost all personal
solicitation propaganda, except such
as is published through the press.
Premier Clemenceau's Message.
The statement by Premier Clemen-
ceau of France, issued by the liberty
loan publicity bureau, says:
"The people of the United States are
preparing to win new victory.
ST send them the cordial greetings OF
France.
"You know what has to be accom-
plished. Fighting does not alone bring
victory. Gold is needed.
France, invaded and mutilated, has
done it's best. The French people dur
ir:: the war, nave Gra.v: Oh the:r own
resources - the amount OF twenty
four billion dollars.
You have subscribed over ten bill
lion dollars to the loans. You have ad-
vanced almost seven billion dollars to
the allies. Today new appeal is made
to you. feel certain Of your re-
SponSe."

NJ. klotZ. French minister of finance,

merce, also were issued.
Mr.: Bryan Urges Prompt Action.
William Jennings Bryan has issued
the following appeal:
"a failure of the people to respond
to the call for money. now would be
disastrous. 1t would encourage the
enemy more than a successful battle.
The supreme moment has come. no
one can fail to see this Importance of
prompt action. OverSUbScription at
once will be an announcement to Ger
many that the American people stand
back of the President, the govern
ment and the Army, and are ready to
furnish the money necessary to win
the war.
"Those who lend money to this gov
eminent have the easiest task of all.
This money they advance is returned
with interest.
1.-THE money needed should not only
be furnished, but furnished promptly.
The moral force of loan reaches its
maximum when it is subscribed i'm
mediately. The fourth loan comes at ::
time when our soldiers are advancing
VIGOROUSLY and when the retreat of
the enemy assumes more and more
the nature of a rout. Germany is SO
hard pressed that she proposes peace

 This firm of well known shirt man ufacturers, which owns and operates mills in New York, Brooklyn, York, Pa, and Middletown, Conn.,, will con- duct its Westerly branch under the name of the LenoX Shirt company.

 The new industry is now looking for the necessary labor with which to conduct it's business It would seem that there should be little trouble in obtaining the help needed, since there are experienced shirt makers in the town, many of whom were formerly employed in the same plant by the Pequot Shirt company.

 The Hellanic Races.
 Continuing. M. Carapanos speaks in favor of diplomatic action to clarify the opinion of the allies on the nec- essitieS for the existence of the Hel- lanic races and the aims of Greece in this war. He says the allies are at present insuficiently informed con- cerning the rights of the Greeks.
 'The aims of the Creeks he says, ''are inspired. not by egotism. but by the necessities of the existence of Greece and her independence in the community of nations"
 In conclusion, NJ. Carapanos ex- presses the conviction that the rights of Greece and the equitable disposi- tion of the allies guarantee that she will be freed from all danger.
