LITTLE AGENTS GET
 RESULTS QUICKLY

Few agents get as quick results as the little ones on the classified ad mage of The Graphic. A lady came into the office late Saturday evening and inserted notice that she had a desirable house for rent Last night she 'phoned to please take the ad out, as I rented the house th's morning, and have been answering telephone calls about it all day Shortly afterward gentleman who had advertising several cows TOT sale. ordered the ad out, eXplainln5 that he had sold tEe cows. dlsposlns of one to colored man for Sl2o, Be- tween these two stop orders, ah- other classified ad was cancelieo oe- cause the place advertised for rent had been rented. All of which tends to indicate that The Graphic is read by people who are able 10 pov or rent what they want.

Washington, April 7.--Word that the American endorsements are mov- Ing to the support of the allies in Plcafdy has revived argument in Ger many over the efficacy of the sub marine, and drawn from Captain Per slus, military critic of the Berlinel laeeblatt the comment that after be- ing persuaded to underestimate Amer lea, German opinion is undergoing q change.
 An official dispatch from Switzer- land today, reviewing the latest dis cusslon. quotes Captain Persius as fol- lows:

BOYS SCOUTS START LOAN CAMPAIGN OF
 THEIR OWN MAKE

The Boy Scouts, not to be outdone by any of the various organizations of the city that are working in be- half of the Third Liberty loan cam paign, have actively begun on their own campaign. and they are such an enthusiastic bunch of lads that their friends expect flattering reports of the amount of bonds sold. Should they fail to sell large number of bonds, it will be mostly the fault of the other fellow.
 Monday large number of the boys started on their tours. Some weeks ago their leader, T. c. Roberts, called a meeting of the boys and they en- Enthusiastically pledged their strength to the loan campaign. They have thrift gardens, thrift stamps and thrift hab. it's and there is little possibility of their falling down in the campaign for subscriptions to the Thrd Liberty loan.

HardWick and Poindexter Clash Over Proposed
 Amendments to Measure
MANY FEAR USE FOR
 POLITICAL PURPOSE

 Authorities ior Iuactis-

Washington, April S.-Another live lv day of lively senate debate on the sedition bill, which would publish dis loyal, utterances and attempts to hin- der the azinv draft and Liberty bond campaign resulted in the adopt ion of amendments designed to meet the ob- jection of some senators that the meas ule might prevent legitimate critic ism in the war. The changes were in the clause penalizing "disloyal, pro- fame, seurrilous. abusive CT contem- tuous language" directed at the form of government, constitution. flag or uniform of the nation, and calculated to bring them into contempt or scorn. There were objections that convictions would be difficult tc secure under such language, but the amendments we're approved with partisan lines dis regarded.
 An amendment urged by Senator Hardwick of Georgia, which led to controversy between the Georgia Sen ator and Seratcr Pcindexter. of Washington, proposed that the words "cause of the" could be eliminated from the latter's amendment penaliz- ing those favoring "the cause of the German empire" It was rejected without record vote, but not until the two senators became so pointed in their language that the chair called them to order. Senator Hardwick in- sisted that millions of people honest lv differ on the cause of the war. Senator Poindexter retorted that the Georgia senator had not particularly supported "the war; and cited his opposition to the draft law.
 Senator Sherman of Illinois took oc- casion to denounce the recent lynch ing of a German at Collinsville, Ill.,. as "a disgrace" and criticised town of ficials for failing to protect the mob's victim. Senator Gallinger, the Re- publican leader. urged that prohib- iticn should be limited to disloyal ut terances and suggested that as drawn the clause might be construed to pre- vent legitimate criticism of the pres ident in the approaching political cam paign. Later he introduced his sub sttute bill.

Washington, April S-Estimates

Washington, April S.---Estimates of daily Liberty loan subscriptions will not be given out during the cam mnaign by national district or local headquar- 1GrS under instructions issu2d tonight by Secretary McAdoo instead the treasury will gather from each fed eral reserve bank figures on subscript- ions actually filed with them togethe, with receipts from the initial five per cent payment and a tabulation of these will be made public each day. Local committees may compile sim liar reports of subscriptions turned in to local banks, and give out the result This method of supplying informa- tion the day by day plan of the loan campaign, adopted today by the treas ury after long discussion, is intended to prevent the publication of inaccu- rate estimates which might not be borne out by actual subscriptions. Secretary McAdoo requested newspa- pers and Liberty lean committees to observ the new rule.
 ''Profiteer" on Flag.
 From several cities today came word that an attempt was being made to commercialize the honor flag idea, and that flag manufacturers were so- lciting orders for large quantities of the specially designed banner. This was met by warning from the treas ury that the flag has been copyright ed and can be obtained legally only from the Libert'- loan organization.
 About 60 additional communities re- ported today they had subscribed their quotas and won the flag, making more than 200 names on the honor roll in the two days of the campaign. Among those reporting today was Piggott Ark.
 Secretary McAdoo today named Apli! 2l as Liberty Loan Sunday, and in letter to 11400O preachers asked that special sermbons be preached on that day.
 Samuel Gompers, president of the federation of labor, in a statement today, urged workers to subscribe generously to the loan, even if it meant great economics, and to do all that you can for the common cause of democracy and freedom the world over."
 Our country calls for service" said Mr. Gompers. "Each and every man, woman and child has a personal duty to perform-an obligation accompany ing the opportunities freely accorded to all."
 If official reports are made at the same rate this time, the treasury an nouncements will be from five to ten days later than the days work they
