REJOICE At
.. PEACE WITH RUSSIA
Concluded from Page y

Ukrainians have concluded with the
Central Powers is on the basis of
large concessions to the Slavs.
A despatch from Stockholm says that
information there is to the effect that
the Ukrainian peace provides for the
granting of n large portion Of East
ern Galicia to Ukrainia, and a large
loan secured by mineral lands which
the Central Powers have granted for
the development of facilities.
There is, however, as yet no full
confirmation that the Ukrainian peac e
will be effective. Both the Bolsheviki
papefs, and the Petrograd correspond
ents a outside; papsrs are silent re.
gardi4g the supposed peace pact sr',
! An official B1Ssian wireless declares
that Kiev' is in the hands of the Boil
sheEiki and concludes by saying that
at ten O'Clock on Friday night "noth-
ing remained Of the Rata but a sad
memory.
This seemed to make it clear that
the Ukrainian delegation from Rada to
Brest- Litovsk represented a non-exist-
ent authority and discounts the an
nOuncement of O Ukrainian peace.
The Russian wireless news agency
officially stated that France and Great
Britain have recognized the Ukrainian
republic and have sent diplomats to

PACKAGE RESTRICTIONS
CAUSE ARMY PLANT
United States Military Authorities,
However, Explain Why Cur.
tailment Is Necessary.

| AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN
I.ence of the Associated Press).-The
restriction of parcel post or express
packages to the soldiers in France
from folks at home has caused some
complaint from both the men over
there and generous friends and rela-
tiyes in America This order, issued
in the early spring. provides that no
package may be sent to soldier in
France except when specifically re-
quested by the individual and ap-
proved by his regimental or higher
commander.
It was promulgated after a careful
well as the needs and requirements of
| the men, and, notwithstanding some
reaction from home in the shape of
complaints from soldiers relatives
Army authorities feel it is justified.
They point out that if each soldier
in an army of a million-and the
American expeditionary forces are
now far in excess of that-should re-
ceite one five-pound package month
i it. would involve the handling of $500
net tons month and require approx
mately 5000 ship tons for transport
overseas. This would mean the ex-
elusive use or TWO falr sized cargo
ships a month
Translated into military needs, the
same amount Of ship space would
maintain in France three full regi-
Iments Of infantry completely equip
ped and ready for fighting. Overseas
Transport, however, they explain, is
Hess formidable than the problem in
lvolved in handling and distributing
such packages after they have arrived
here. The men are not located in a
lefty of streets. but are scattered all
over France, in cities and towns and
villages, in cantonments and in the
trenches. and no soldier in war has
a permanent address.
At present the authorities are de-
l.yoting every effort to the prompt
transmission of letter mail, and they
feel that this is far more important
10 the happiness OF the men and their
anilies than chocolates, cigarettes,
41Dfhers and other presents.

TWO APPEALS FROM
DRY" Law. DECISIONS
Government Asks 0. $. Supreme
Court to Speed Cases as Prohibi-
ton Enforcement Is Affected.

Two appeals from federal court De
cisions nullifying in part the Reed
amendment prohibiting Interstate
shipment of Intoxicating liquors into
dry states for beverage purposes have
been filed in the United States Su-
preme Court by the government Be-
cause Of the Importance of the act
in enforcing prohibition the court
was asked to expedite consideration
of the cases.
In one case the lower court held
that the act does not prohibit trans
portation of liquor through a dry
state In the other proceedings, ap.
pealed from West Virginia, the court
held that while the liquor was trans
ported into dry state from another
state, it was not transported in in
terstate commerce because intended
for personal use, and not for purposes
of trade"
In asking for the reversal Of the
decision affecting shipments Of liquor
through a dry state this government
in its brief, declared that whenever
liquor is being transported In inter.
state commerce, and not Tor one OF
the excepted purposes, and crosses the
line of a dry state into that state
the Reed amendment has been vio-
lated, whether such liquor be intended
lur consumption or sale or only for
further transportation or for any
other purpose"
Relative to the West Virginia case,
I the government contends that tine
Reed amendment is an absolute pro-
Eibition against the movement, in
interstate commerce, of Intoxicating
liquors except for scientific. sacra-
mental. medicinal or mechanical pur-
poses." from wet" state to pro
hibition" state, and as such super
sedes so-ca1led ''quart-a-month' laws

ment directed to state, district and
county chairmen and all republican
workers saying that 'the success of
the fourth liberty loan shall be the
republican party's supreme motif of
thought and action until that object

He pledged the republican party

clared that everything else than max

the loan lis chores" The statement
i follows:
! THE mission of America is about to
be accomplished.
American soldiers in France are at
this moment demonstrating to the
world the reason for America and the
stuff OF which this republic is made.
Their complete success and the con-
sequent eternal establishment every

of American rights, interests and
honor, and the right Of men to gov
ern themselves. are all assured with
| the proper performance Of the plain
est duty of the citizenry at home.
| THE fourth liberty loan is our next
objective.
Ready to Die for Flag.
There is no geography. political
or physical. in the patriotism of this
:. country. Democrats and republicans
alike love their flag and are ready to
| die for it. We continually insist for
all parties that the war be kept out
of partisan politics and that parti-
/ SanShip be kept out of the war.
Just as in Congress the republic
cans led the fight that made possible
! the passage of the great war meas
ures, so now the party membership
and organization has an Immediate.
! definite war task in the accomplish
ment of which it can fully function.
1 repeat. let there be no contest in
| this country as to anything that

who best can serve, who most can live.
THE success of the fourth liberty
loan shall be the republican party's
supreme motif of thought and action
\ uhtit lLdl oUJcClltc Is dlldlISU-

tribute most to the wars success, SO

shall be determined entirely by how
we can make certain the quick over

This is united country's next

THE entire republican organizat ton
in every voting precinct in this coun-

Alliance for Labor Speaks.

The American Alliance for Labor
and Democracy also issued a state
ment last night Sin behalf of Amer
ica's call to her people" to support the
liberty loan.
Urging that to no others does the
loan mean so much as to the workers
| of America, it calls attention to the
| declaration of the American Fedora
I ton of Labor that this is labor's war
! Labor must by every device and
by every effort help to bring it to q
victorious conclusion" it adds.
Commenting the federation slogan,
DO nothing that cannot be justified
to the man risking his life on the
firing line in France" the alliance
declared that tabor must shirk no OBJ
legation, or duty, go in lethargy about
no task"
INC working man who understands
this war and loves liberty will fail to
do his share, because he who fails
cannot justify his failure to the men
on the firing line in France" the
statement added.
t Failure to do ones duty, in what
ever capacity it may be, while this
FaRar lasts, is unjustifiab1e.
9'Let US look forward with eager
ness and joy to this new opportunity
to lend strength to our nation and
our cause. Let US overwhelmingly
support the fourth liberty loan. Let
US presage the triumph of our armies
with the triumph Of our dollars"
