UNITY RESERVE
 BANKS FOR BOND !. SALES IN FUTURE

Washington, Nov. 9-An entirely new plan of organization for handling not only future Government bond is- sues but War Saving Stamps and all Government issues for popular sub scription is under consideration by the Treasury Department as the re- suit of a two-day session of gover- nors of the Federal Reserve Banks, chairmen of Liberty Loan Commit tees and representatives of the Wo- mems Liberty Loan Committee.
 While the details of the plan have not been finally determined it was learned from authoritative sources last night, after the adjournment of the conference that a practical agree ment was reached by all represented and the plan in general contemplates twelve unified organizations with the Governors of the Federal Reserve Banks at their heads, these organiza- tions reporting through the gover- nors to the Treasury at Washington.
 Each governor, according to the present plan, is to be responsible for the form and results of the organiza- ton in his district. This would obviate, it is pointed out, the neces- sfty of various state, women's and other independent organizations, each reporting to Washington.
 A definite form of organization un- der each bank governor, one which he must follow, is not contemplated, but he is expected to be the responsi- bIe head of whatever form of or ganization he may choose to establish in his district.
 Another feature of the plan, it was learned, is to make a continuous sell ing organization throughout the coun- try. The twelve district committees, or whatever their name shall be, are to be assigned quotas of War Savings Certificates and other Government is- sues. to cover periods of three or six months. If at the approach of the end of any period, it shall appear that the district is falling behind in it's quota, special drives are to be or ganized, but the idea is to keep the Government issues constantly before the public and avoid as far as possi- ble periodic drives.
 An official announcement of the new plan as soon as 1t has been re- viewed carefully by the Treasury of ficials is expected.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S
 RESPONSIBILITY

President Wilson is responsible for his decisions to the whole American people; to the peoples of the Allies; to the neutrals, whose future happi- ness depends upon a stable peace, even to the democratic fragments in the enemy peoples who will be crush ed or set on the road to power ac- cording to the wisdom of his decis- sions. That the President recognizes the tremendous weight of responsibil- ity resting upon him there is not a shadow of doubt. There is not a shadow of doubt that he holds in his mind information as to the condition of our enemies and of our Allies in comparison with which the best knowledge of any other citizen is blank ignorance. There is not a shadow of doubt that the President is in closest communication with the governments of our Allies, that he is elaborating with those government plans of action representing the in terests of all the associated peoples. Nevertheless, he may err. But his judgment is the best that is available to us-The New Republic.

BISHOP MILAN APPEALS TO l
 FLOCK FOR WAR WORK AID|

John J. Milan, Bishop of Hartford, has addressed to the clergymen of the diocese the following communication, asking for full Catholic support for the United War Work drive:
 ''The United War Work Campaign will open November 11th and close November 18th. The names ot mem bers of your parish who are available as committee chairmen and team workers are now in the hands of Mr. George c. Hubert, the Director of the State Campaign, and they will be placed at the disposal of the chair man of your district. The latter will be free to select from this list for special duty as many as he may deem advisable.
 Next Sunday and the following Sunday kindly call the attention of your people to the demand which is to be made upon them and advise them to respond promptly and cheer fully for any service which may be required for the successful issue of this most important work and 10 con- tribute generously to the fund of $170, 900 which 1t is desired to raise in order to promote the welfare of those engaged in United States ser vice. Impress upon your corgrega- tion especially the necessity of united action. Seven organizations are to receive an equitable share of the pro- ceeds of this drive for the judicious expenditure of which they will be re- sronsible to the government. The sum to be realized is large, but not large enough to accomplish all that we should like to see done for the
 well-being of our soldiers who are now counted by millions, and it re- 1 quires the unstinted interest and cor

TRUST COMPANY SUES TO COLLECT
 ON UNPA|D NOTES

Action claiming $15,OOO damages for non-payment of four promissory notes has been filed in the superior court by The Empire Trust Co.,, of New York, against Melville P. Hall of Stamford, the case returnable to the December term of the court.
 According to the complaint March 1, 1910, the Ovington Manufacturing Go. of Boston issued four notes tE4 $1,80O, $2,500, $2.3OO, and $2,11O. Hall, according to the allegation, to induce the Trust Co. to purchase the notes entered into an agreement whereby he was to pay the notes with interest, to waive all demands, and take them up at maturity. Under this representation the Trust Go. pur- chased the notes.
 The notes were renewed from time to time until September, 1912, when they matured, and payment was de- manded of Hall. He refused to pay. There is now due, according to the al legations, the sums of S1,897.23, $2,856.82, $2,54O.63, and $2,274.22. Payment is demanded.

Harrington Speaks For Social Justice
at Governors Conference.

at Governors Conference.
Annapolis, Dec. 17.-Governors from
thirty-fve states opened the tenth an
nual governors conference in the hall
of the Maryland capitol.
There George Washington resigned
his commission as leader Of the Amer
lean forces in 1888.
Standing where Washington stood,
Governor Emerson c. Harrington,
Maryland, welcomed the visitors. He
outlined reconstruction problems to be
discussed. States must cooperate, he
said, in promoting legislation to in
sure social justice. He added:
"Bolshevism must never be permit
ted on the western continent. The
surest way to avoid Socialism Of such
a character, or anarchy, is for US to
have such forms of government as
give equal and just rights and equal
and just opportunity to every citizen.
LET us find out the causes for Boil
shevism, for Socialism. for anarchy.
and remove the causes. Nearly all
'isms' have some element of right and
are caused by some element of Unjust
ice When we dig into conditions we
find most of the causes are social.
Thus we come into new light. We
have the miracle and the gospel of
he new day Of our new world"
