Every county which as a whole
subscribes it's apportionment of the
Third Liberty Loan is entitled to a
liberty flag, and each town which
subscribes it's apportlonment is like
wise entitled to a liberty flag. The
county of Bamberg, and the towns of
Bamberg, Denmark and Olar are en-
titled to liberty flags, and the county
chairman has telegraphed to head
quarters that We are lover the top,
send the flags
The treasury department is hav-
ing list made of every subscriber
to this loan and when completed,
each county will be supplied with
list of county subscribers, and it is
the request of the treasury depart
ment that each list be considered a
''Roll of Honor" and as such be dis
played in each school house in the
county, and be preserved as record
of those persons who aided the cause
of America by giving of their sup
port when it was needed. Every one
should have a place on this Roll
of Honor" so that as the years go by
no one need have to explain to some
boy or girl why their name is not
recorded.

COVER THE TOP"
Bamberg, Denmark and Olar Get
Liberty Flags.

Bamberg county has gone lover
the Top" in subscriptions to the
Third Liberty Loan. Let the good
work continue. There are numbers
of people who have not yet subscrib-
ed, whose names should be added to
the "Roll of Honor" Bamberg
county has made a larger per capita
income tax return than any county
in the State, according to unofficial
estimates. Bamberg county should
therefore take the lead in the State
in per capita subscriptions to the
Liberty Loan. If the members of the
Third Liberty Loan committee, work
ing in conjunction with the banks of
the county, will make personal
appeal to every citizen of our county,
there is no doubt that the loan will
be we'll over-subscribed. There are
many who want an opportunity to
take bonds, and all that is necessary
is that the matter be explained to
them. AS an example of the kind Of
work that counts, both in dollars
and in the number of persons that
subscribe for bonds, we are informed
that Mr. D. A. Gardner, committee
man at Embree, has reported twelve
subscriptions from his. community
which were made through him, and
doubtless there are others who were
induced to subscribe through his ef-
forts. There are number Of in
stances of just this kind of individu-
al effort which will count as greatly
in securing numbers of subscribers
to the loan.

No Suggestion of Terms Made

ceau Is View of Diplomats
at National Capital,
AUSTRIAN DECLARATION
PROMOTED IN BERLIN
No Proposal of Teutons to End
War viii Be Considered al
This Time; Must Be Beaten
With Arms,

Washington. April 3.-American
government officials and the entente
embassies saw another Teutonic peace
offensive today in the reported
speech of Count Czernin, the Austro-
Hungarian 70 reign minister, declar-
ing that recently negotiations were
near between the Austrian and the
allied government.
The movement, evidently conceived
in Germany, they said, was made just
as 1t became certain that the German
drive in the west had failed of its
purpose and was intended to bring
discord among the allied powers and
to cause discontent among their pop
Ulations.
The foreign minister's statement
that Premier Clemenceau of France
had advanced a suggestion of peace
discussions and his reference to
Alsace-Lorraine as a stumbling block
II was declared here, were designed
to create the belief that the allies
desire to recover Alsace-LorraIne for
France, is the only thing that stands
In the way of peace.
Officials and members of the
diplomatic corps were unanimous in
their declaration that CZernin's state
ments had no basis of fact and fur
ther that no peace suggestions COM
ing from the Teutnoic powers would
be given consideration at this time.
There was no disagreement in the
defeated by force of arms before the
question of peace is taken up in any
way.

In the republican counties, where
the La Toilette foiiowing Is, strong.
the republicans who voted for Hust-
ing in 1914, appear to have given
their support to Lenroot this year
One of the reasons for decreases in
the Davies vote, it was believed, was
that in German counties. normally
democratic, voters switched to Ber-
ger and in some cases to Lenroot.
The approximate vote indicated by
returns received up to tonight give
Lenroot 143,000, Davies $4,000 and
Berger $1,000. Complete returns may
swell each total considerably.
In 1914 when Husting, democrat,
was elected, he received 1895;

Seidel, socialist. 29,774.

the situation materially.
Mayor Daniel w. Hoan, socialist,
was reelected in Milwaukee by about
$500 over Percy Braman, non-partis-
an. However, the balance of the city
ticket went to the non-partisan can
didates. AS at present the common
council will remain politically as be-
fore, with nineteen non-partisans and
twelve socialists, according to avail
able returns.
Mr.. Davies tonight sent a message
to Mr.. Lenroot, congratulating him
on his election. The message read:

gratulations upon this great oppor-

short $4,000 tons of steel which
should have been at the plant two
weeks ago for laying keels for new
ships, the senate commerce commit
tee was told today by George j. Bald
win, chairman of the board for the
American International Shipbuilding
corporation.
The attention Of the shipping
board has been called to the shortage
and 1t also has been presented to the
war industries board and the priority
board. Baldwin said.
The committee adopted motion
by Senator Harding OF Ohio, for
Chairman Fletcher of the committee,
and Chairman Hurley Of the shipping
board to call on President Wilson to
urge that steel be sent to Hog Island
Immediately.
Senator Jones of Washington, ask
ed Balwin whether the government
agencies do not realize the import
ance of ships.
Yes he replied, but there seems
to be inertia all along the line; there
seems to be lack of centralized au-
thority. We should have q bank of
steel at the yards from which we
could draw
Baldwin declared there were twen-
ey ways at the Hog Island yards now,
at which steel for the laying of keels
should have been on hand two weeks
ago. Hog Island he added, is not the
only yard at which there is a short
age.

Washington, April 3.-Representa-
tives of every state, including more
than a dozen governors, met here to-
day at an Americanization conference,
called by Secretary Lane of the in
terror department, to draft recon-
mendations to congress for legislation
providing for a national campaign
against illiteracy.
The opening session was given over
largely to denunciations of the Ger
man language press and the teaching
Of enemy tongues in the elementary
schools
In a speech Of invective against the
disloyalty he cSAimed was prevalent
to great extent in some sections of
the middle west, former Senator La
fayette Young OF Iowa urged that the
federal government take immediate
steps to protect school children from
the malignant effects of German
propaganda. The singing of "Deutseh-
land Uber Allies" and die Wacht am
Rhine" he asserted, marks the clos
ing of the days session even now in
more than 1000 middle western
schools. Diverting from an excorcia-
tion of the German language press
the former senator said:
Should EXpel La Toilette.
"If the United States senate would
expel Senator La Toilette il would be
like driving whole German division
from the western front"
Up to thirty Gays ago in some Ne
ibraska schools the American national
anthem was unknown, German hymns
always having been the accepted pa
triotic songs, according to r. L. Met
calf of Nebraska, former governor of
the Panama canal zone. In a few
counties OF Nebraska, Mr. Metcalf
said, the German-born population pre-
ponderates so greatly that the Eng
disappearing schools are practically
unattended. In assailing the foreign
language press, he declared that one
of Nebraska's enemy tongue news
papers gave way on July 4, several
months after America entered the
war souvenir spoons bearing the
likeness of the kaiser and Won Hin
denburg.
Why Italy Lost Ground.
Will Irwin, war correspondent,
recently returned from the battle zone.
told the delegates that Italy's failure
to guard properly against German
propaganda was the dominant reason
for her overwhelming defeat last fall
on the Isonzo front.
Resolutions of Levy Mayer of Chi I

foreign language newspapers during
the war and to require all aliens to |
take out first citizenship papers by
