ETANIBULIWSKY PEASANT
 LEADER SOUGHT.

London, Dec. 6-M. stambuIiwsky leader of the Peasants party and head of the New Peasants govern ment in Bulgaria, was among those who sought to prevent King Ferdin= and from committing Bulgaria to war on the side of the Central Pow CTS.
 At conference of party leaders held with the King at the palace, M. Stambuliwsky spoke his mind freely, telling the king that he was leading the country to destruction, and that he would pay for his crime with his crown and. perhaps with his head.
 To this the King replied that Stambuliwsky; need have no concern for the royal head, but had better take care of his own. Later Stam- buliwsky was imprisoned.

COUNTRY RESUMES
 PRE-WAR ACTIVITY

Washington, Dec. 6-Reaction from war time economy Is apparent in reports to various government agencies since the signing of the ar mlstice. War savings committees in all parts of the country have sub mitted statements tending to show that persons who abstained from buy ing unnecessary clothes during the war have rushed to shops within the past week or two and bought accord ing to pre-war standards.
 Retail businesses report stimula- ton of business by peace news. In some cases, the response was inn mediate, business showing a big jump within a day or two after Nov. Il. This reaction seems most marked among the wealthier classes.
 Reports gathered by the Fedora Reserve Board also show activity among wholesale houses to meet the demand of retailers. The whole sale business, however, is somewhat restricted by the desire of retail merchants to let their stocks run low while waiting for prices to come down. Thousands of retailers quickly arranged special sales of their stocks at lower prices, in view of the uncertainties of the future course of prices.
 Building operations have taken a sudden start after the long enforced period of sluggishness during the war, and building materials are now beginning to flow away from former war enterprises, toward peace time building projects. Private building seems to be holding back, however Municipalities and states have turned their thoughts to building roads anc bridges, held up during the war bJ shortage of materials, and within tho next month officials here look for q multitude of advertisements for bid! for these projects.
 At least eight billions of dollar: must be raised ill the United Statet next year from war bonds or wal savings. Officials argue that float ing of these loans withcUt cores bonding saving in money and ma terials merely servaJ to infate credit and tho a3ICal result of this int1a ton is a general rise in prices.
 The Treasury now is asking to de velop means of continuing thrif propaganda throughout the next fe7 years, to educate the public to tho duty of paying off indebtedness be fore relaxing war time economy. II fact, students of economy in tht Treasury declare that unless tn, American people learn lessons o thrift which populations of England France, Germany and other warlin. nations have learned during the pas four years, the country will be in position during reconstruction of ab sorbing much moro than it's share O the worlds available stock of food materials and labor, needed for tn phyRhaAs<Ha abuilding of devastated DOT tions of Europe.

w. S. S. FOR PEACE.
We Have Financed the War, We Must
Now Finance Peace Problems.

We Have Financed the War, We Must
Now Finance Peace Problems.
Some people are asking: Now that
the war is over and the soldiers are
coming home. what Is the sense in my
buying more w. s. s. and Certifi-
Catesf'
They feel that they have helped
finance the war. They forget that
they must help to finance peace.
Consider for q minute how many
ships 1t will take to bring the boys i'll
khaki home again. Consider how many
millions of dollars 1t will take to keep
American soldiers in Europe long
enough to see to It that we are not
cheated out of the victory we have
won. Also. consider that it will take
many months to get the soldiers who
are now in camps in this country and
abroad back into civil life and into
citizens clothes, back at their old jobs
in the mills, the factories and at the
pillow.
You have seen that phrase, THE
war Is not won until the last soldier
is back home" haven't you? These
men who fought for you, who have
given up their work and their families
and offered their lives for you, must
be fed and sheltered until they are
discharged from the army. And they
can't all be discharged tomorrow.
They can't all be home for Christmas.
This country has big job on its
hands in getting ready for peace. The
military machine that has been going
Full Speed Ahead" must now be re-
Versed, and the soldiers that were
must be the civilians OF tomorrow But
it will take time. Expenses will keep
going on. The money must be fur
nished. 1t can't all come out of Lib
erty Bond issues and taxes. Some OF
it must come from War Stamps. The
pledges that have been given should
be redeemed, and the man or the WON,
! an who can buy more stamps should
buy them.

Washington, d. C.-With the subsld-
ence of the epidemic of influenza the
attention Of health officers is directed
to pneumonia, bronchitis and other
diseases of the respiratory system
which regularly cause q large number
of deaths, especially during the winter
season. According to Rupert Blue,
Surgeon General Of the United States
Public Health Service, these diseases
will be especially prevalent this win
ter unless the people are particularly
careful to obey health instructions
"1'he present epidemic" said Sur
geon General Blue, has taught by Bit
ter experience how readily a condition
beginning apparently as a slight cold
may go on to pneumonia and death.
Although the worst Of the epidemic Ia
over, there will continue to be a large
number of scattered cases. many Of
them mild and unrecogniZed, which
will be danger spots to be guarded
against" The Surgeon General llkened
the present situation to that after a
