It is necessary for the Nation as a
whole to save. Its people 40. gen
eral rule have been spendthrnts,
and now must learn to save, not on
" for themselves, but for their
country also.
At the end of this war there IS
going to be a great demand for mon
ey; prices are going to jump sky
high" and the laborers' wages are
going to be very low, consequently
those who have a little money saved
IN will be the ones who will get
along best when "hard times" come.
Money is not the only thing that
should be saved. Coal, right at the
nrescrt time, is very short on &C
count of the congestion Of freight
Every one should use just as little as
possible, until the shortage is re-
iieved.

very l:,tle, if any at all. They ne"'
it me re than we do, yet we have
plenty. Therefore we should use
lust as little as possible so the sol
liers might get some very soon.
Wheat, beef, pork and other food
stuffs have to be saved. If they are
not saved here so that they NIGH

will have to draw on France and In

We are not in this war to see VIVA

Headess Monday Or
der Stands As Fuel
Stocks Ebb

Washington, Feb. with the
East facing the most acute coal
shortage of the winter and in the
grin of the coolest weather in
generation, the government decided
today that the heatless Monday pro-
gram cannot at this time, be aban-
doned as had been hoped.
The conclusion to continue the
closing was reached at conference
between Fuel Administrator Garfield
and Director General McAdoo at
tended by a dozen state fuel admin
istrators. There was no official an
nouncement but a join statement
probably will be given out tomorrow.
There had been every indication
up to last night that the Monday
HOLIDAYS were over, but reports to-
night brought to Washington by the
state fuel administrators that
throughout most of the East there
is on hand one days supply of coal,
coupled with the weather situation,
were accepted as convincing proof
that the present is no time to lift
the closing order. Even Mr.. Nc
Adoo, who up to this time is under
stood to have opposed the closing
plan, was said tonight to have
agreed that until weather permits
an Improvement in railroad trans
portation the order should be con-
tinued in force.

in July to do so, and the books OF

1918:
The Washington herald., 1918-03-14

London, March 13.-The Paris war
Office in its communique. today laid
stress upon the increasing intensity
of the American artillery fire at sew
eral vital points. It announced the
destruction by American shell fire Of
five groups of German gas projectors
that were about to be used in at
tacks on the American positions.
Hits were scored by American bat
teries on German ammunition dumps
and confiagrations were observed
considerable distance back of the
German lines. The occupants Of an
enemy airplane that had fallen in the
Chemin des Danes sector are now
prisoners in American hands.
Gun Duels Rage.
The big gun duels at Verdun con-
tinue unabated. On the British front
there was lively raiding activity. both
Field Marshal Haig and the Berlin
war office reporting successes.
A large-scale raid into the French
lines netted the Germans ninety
prisoners, the German statement
averts, while twenty-three English
and Portuguese prisoners were taken
in enterprises east of Zonnebecke
and west of Formelles.
The British on their part repulsed

a German sortie at Armentieres and
made a successful raid north OF
Lens. The German guns replied to-
day to yesterdays British lombard
ment of Cambria and also were
active in front of the Paschendaele
Ridge.
Getting Lively.
Altogether the situation on the
whole West front is increasingly
lively, and talk of the beginning of
the spring campaign is consistent
Iy in the air.
It is accentuated by continual
aerial activity extending far back
to the rear of both sides of the
fighting line. The allies as well as
the Germans have begun a syste-
matte campaign of interior" raid
ing, taking into account the lesson
of the first three years of war, and
the peoples morale and nerves are
the most essential factor for the ul-
innate success.
The German raids on Paris and
London are in line with this policy
as are the entente attacks on I'M
portant cities such as Coblenz and
Treves. Berlin asserted today that
seventeen entente eirplanes and two
captive balloons were brought down
tby the Germans yesterday.

$3.50 RAISE PROPOSED
Borland to Push His Eight
Hour Amendment-De-
bate Limit Is Set.

Dissatisfied with the $40 flat in
crease allowed to all civilian en-
ployes of the government, includ-
ing those in the District, in a com
mittee amendment to the legisla-
tive, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill, which was presented
in the House by Chairman Byrns
late yesterday afternoon, Repre-
sentative Edward Keating, of Col
orado, will this morning frame an
other amendment providing for a
material boost in the $I2o flat in
crease. 1t is probable that his
amendment will set the flat in
crease rate at SI8o.
Limiting of debate on the
amendment was made in the
House before adjournment. One
hour will be given over to the
discussion OF the committee
amendment and one hour will be
given to debate on Representative

Representative Byrns will direct the
defense of the general amendment
and Representative Borland that of
his eight-hour amendment. Repre-
sentative Stafford, of Wisconsin, will
direct the thirty minutes allowed to
answer Representative Borland.
Assurance was given yesterday that
the House would take up discussion
Of the amendment Immediately after
il had disposed Of its regular morn
ing business today and it is expected
a favorable vote will be taken on 1t
soon afterward.
Representative Byrns further pro-
vided that after the lump time had
been spent in discussion Of the gen.

Borland's amendment that other de-
bate would be limited to bona fide
germane amendments only and that
no-member could thereafter hold the
floor for longer than five minutes.

M'ADO0 GIVES AMOUNT
OF JUNE CERTIFICATES
Total Indebtedness in Treasury
Notes Placed at $1,255, 100000.

The total amount Of Treasury in
debtedness certificates maturing on
June 25, 1918. is now s1,255, 600, 900.
Secretary McAdoo said yesterday:
About $75,000.000 of the certifi-
Gates dated February Is have been
sold to date, and are included in the
total. Certificates dated March Is
and maturing June rs. 1918, will be
made available rapidly. They draw
per cent and are acceptable in
payment of income and excess prof
its taxes.
They are identical with the issue
dated February Is, except as to date
of issue and from which they bear
interest. Until they are available
interim certificates will be issued
calling for definitive Treasury GER
tificates dated March Is, instead of
February Is. This will relieve sub
scribers from paying so much on ac-
count of accrued interest.
