How Claims May Be Pressed.

All the points might technically be
pressed by the allies under the peace
conditions already agreed upon, except
numbers 9 and II, which exceed the
conditions thus far named in the public
interchange n1ee.sca Of notes. Examining the
allied nations, it is seen that France
may press all the claims mentioned.
There is also movement for the resti-

Germany In the Franco-Prussian war Of

Tampa, March 18.-Florida ma

after leaving the ways, men must
be assembled to man them, and
this is the task of the Sea Service
Bureau.
A call is sounded from Atlantic
to Pacific, from the Gulf to the

ward as volunteers. Unusual OPP
pOrtunity for good pay and higher
rating is offered Seafaring men by
the creation of the great United
States merchant fleet. And the
names of the men, who can be
shipped aboard the vessels now be-
ing rushed to completion, are
wanted today, in advance of the
need. To those who make appli-
cation, with request for immedi-
ate service the Sea Service Blu
reau promises to do what it can to
ship them right away.
Philip Shore, Franklin Square
Building, Tampa, is handling the
Sea Service Bureau applications
from points along the Gulf coast
of Florida. Tampa has been des-
lgnated as an assembly point, to
which the men will be called when
crews are needed for the Emergen-
cy Fleet Corporations ships.
Many applications have been re-

Wonderful Progress of the South

The transformation within
twelve-month of certain sections
of the south in agricultural and
business conditions seems almost
unbelievable. These were por-
tions of the central south at this
time last year that were in the
slough of despond. Crops of all
kinds, owing to the boil weevil and
excessive rains were almost COM
plete failures. Negroes, the sta
pie agricultural laborers, were
leaving in thousands for the north
and the east, and the future seem
red to offer nothing but that grim
endurance which the southern peo-
pie have so often experienced and
practiced.
Today the reports throughout
the same regions are optimistic be-
yond expression, and indicate that
the boast of the south that cit is
the land of opportunity" is in
reality a sober truth if some crops,
such as rice and sugar cane, were
not as large as in some years past,
these products now bring great
prices which more than make up
the difference to the producers. 1t
is true that the same September
freeze that hurt corn so badly last
year likewise blighted a large area
of cotton in Tennessee, Mississippi,
Arkansas and Alabama. But a.
gain, the appreciation in price of
this great staple brought its COM
pensatiOn to the farmers and
planters. An interesting side
light on cotton is that it is being
successfully raised, though in a
moderate way, as far south in
Florida as the bay Of Tampa.
In it's experience of diversified
ton the south is learning the value
of seemingly unimportant things,

Hens Not to Be Sold
(Oficial)

The prohibition against the sale
of live or freshly killed poultry
does not apply to broilers weigh
ing two pounds or less each. The
prohibition against the sale of this
stock was put in force in an effort
to increase the potential egg pro-
duction of the country. 1t re-
mains effective until April 30.
This was done in order to prevent
rapid dinintegration of the poul-
try industry by the selling of lay
ing hens, In some parts of the
country large proportion of them
have already been sold because of
the high price of live poultry.
These hens should be kept on the
farm. They should lay about 80
eggs each before May l. These
eggs may be sold or set for hatch
ing. On and after May l, the
hens may be sold as usual.

BY Frederick, NJ. kerby.

W, n. Il. A. staff Correspondent. ~
:. New York, Nov. 15,-"The industries
of the United States stand on the
threshold of the greatest opportunity
iRthe worlds history"
Charles II. Sabin, president of the
Guaranty Trust company of New York,
London and Paris said this to be at the
conclusion of an interview in which
he discussed the probable effect OF
peace on business and labor in the
United States.
BUSINESS MEN CAN BE

II am an optinist on the general
outlook" he declared. "There is not
the slightest reason to believe thac
panicky conditions may follow the
peace settlement. We may expect, of
course, a period Of readjustment in
which Industries that have been on a
purely war basis will be transferred
to d peace basis. buh beyond some tenn
pOrary dislocation and redistribution
of labor, we have nothing to fear. r.

"All building operations not of Il
purely war character have been sus-
pended during the war. There is Il
great deal of work Of that kind To
be done. Abroad, Of course, there is
much more to be done, and, no doubt,
we will be called on to do our share
Of that, though naturally the French,
thrifty; highly skilled and intelligent,
will want to utilize their own indus

rather Than owe us for additional ma

ing this, there is vast deal for us to
do in helping these countries rebuild.

can nance by purchase Of Freich, Brit

soldiers back into industry will be Il
gradual one, SO that no unemployment
problem will be presented. There will
doubtless be downward trend in the
average wake scale where this has
been pushed very high by war de-
mands5 but, on the other side, there
will be . decline in commodity prices
also. The two things always 90 hand
in hand, and the important thing is
not what the nominal wage happens to
be. but how. much it can purchase. Both
wages, and price levels are unduiy
high now, and both will decline gradu-
ally.

peace conference and the international
organization that must follow. it do
We need the wisest kind of leadership
there. We are standing on the threshold
of the greatest opportunity the United
States has ever faced. The world has
Become a much smaller place than it

met at the hands of the folks south of
