MONEY TO WIN WAR
How Americans Can Defeat
Blood -Crazed Kaiser.
Small Contributions From All Who
Love Liberty and Appreciate Its
Blessings viii Save World
From Grave Danger.

Many are familiar with the fable
that appeared in the old school readers
about the king who offered a fortune
and the hand Of his daughter to the
man who could tell him a story that
would last forever in the telling, with
the stipulation, however, that in case
the story came 10 an end, the person
who failed to complete ii was to lose
his head by the sword.
A number of adventurous spirits lost
their heads in the attempt to keep a
serial going forever to amuse the &C.
centric monarch, but one young man
finally won the fortune and the daugh-
ter by wearing out the very soul OF the
king with the story about the locusts
carrying off the corn. "And then an
other locust came and carried off an
other grain of corn" etc, etc, until
the king decided he had had enough Of
the story.
America--in fact, the whole world,
IS dealing with an Eccentric monarch
today. This monarch wants the impos-
sble, and everyone who refuses to give
1t to him must lose his head There
is one'way to deliver the peoples of the
world from this menace.
Kaiser Wilhelm can be worn out, II
he cannot be crushed by one tremen-
dous blow. And the government at
Washington has pointed out the way.
Money will defeat the kaiser Small
savings like the lOcusts coming along
from l10,00000O American citizens,
will wear out the soul of the war-mad
monarch. American money can wear
ont any army in the world, because
there is great deal of American
money and there are many Americans
who have it, Just mere matter Of a
uuarte. day from every wage Garner
in the U'ited States would mean bill
lions of dollars every year to buy guns
and food for soldiers, and ships TO
carry them across the Atlantic to de-
feat the sinister purposes of the kaiser
and his rev.
A quarter, like the grain of corn, is
not much in itself. but millions of quar-
ters every day mean victory for right
eOusnesS and humanity.

Excerpt from the Hooverized food
experience of the man who edits the
Missouri Notes" column in the Kan
Sas City Times:
"The friends who entertained us
warned US that they were living very
frugally and proved the assertion at
every meal For example, for break
fast one morning we had nothing but
cereal and real cream, homemade
sausage. fried potato cakes. Stewed
fruit, hot biscuit, two kinds Of pre-
serves and coffee. The menu for the
next morning, as announced the night
before. was nothing but wafiies, and
that's all they had, with the exception
of bacon and eggs and few little side
dishes. We Mortified our hostess that
morning by eating only % waffles. Our
allotment was 81, and she said it was
unpatriotic not to clean the platter"

All Americans Needed
Will Be Sent Across

LONDON, May 16.-American prepa-
rations on the western front are amaz-
ing in their intensity and plans are be-
ing made to care for 100000 Ameri-
can troops, Harry E. v. Britain, sec
rotary of the English branch of the
Pilgrims club, told the Royal Colonial
institute last night. If the Germans
do not give in, he added. the number
of American troops will be increased to
any amount necessary.
Sir Charles P. Lucas, former head of
the dominions department at the colo
NAL Office, said he wondered if the Ger
mans realized what the entry of Ameri-
ca into the war meant. 1t meant, he
said, not only the accession to the al
lied powers of many millions of fighting
men and the addition Of vast resources,
but also the coming in of the only one
amongst the great peoples of the world
who have seen and carried through to
an unmistakeab1e issue a four years
war.
The United States, asserted Miss Hig-
gins, of the American labor delegation,
had answered the call of blood. England
had been a wonderful inspiration, and
the heart of America was full of graft
tude for what England's sons had
achieved

WILSON REVIEWS FIGHT
ON "DRAGNET" INQUIRY
The Chamberlain Resolution
Amended by Senate, Still
Is Objectionable

WASHINGTON, May 16.-President
Wilson today renewed his fight against
adoption by the senate of Senator
Chamberlain's resolution for a war in
quiry by the senate military commit
te. He advised Senator Thompson, OF
Kansas. that the resolution as amended
yesterday by the senate expenditures
committee, still is Objectionable.
Considering all the circumstances,
President Wilson told Senator Thomp-
son, chairman of the expenditures COM
mittee, the Chamberlain resolution,
even as modified. would in effect au-
thorize a "dragnet" investigation by
the military committee.
The president informed Senator Mar
tin. of Virginia, Democratic leader, yes
terday that the Chamberlain resolution,
calling for an investigation of aircraft
production and other war activities,
constituted vote of lack of confidence
in the administration and the eXpendi-
lures committee amended it to elimi-
nate all reference to an investigation
of the conduct of the war"
1--WE are going to do all we can to
said Senator Thompson, after a confer
ence at the White House. THE presi-
dent authorized me to say that he is
just as much opposed to the amended
resolution as he was to the original"
Senator Thompson said he might Of
fer a substitute proposing to limit the
military committees inquiry to the
aircraft situation alone. The president,
he said, feels that the revised resolu-
ton is too broadly drawn and still is
subject to the construction that would
authorize the general inquiry by the
military committee into the conduct of
the war.
Senator Thompson also said it was
believed the military committee now
has sufficient authority to proceed
within it's proper boundaries of inquiry,
possibly with the exception of provid-
ing additional funds for expenses.
The original Chamberlain resolution
authorized an inquiry into aircraft ord
nance and quartermaster affairs, and
into conduct of the war, by or through
the war department" This phrase was
deleted and an express proviso was add
ed prohibiting the military committee
from interfering with the presidents
direction of the war"

German Newspapers
Forecast Offensive

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN
THE FIELD. May l5-German news
papers arriving at the French front
via Switzerland, together with German
radios picked up by the French wire less
show the German imperial cor mand is
conducting a press campaign for the
benefit of the German people prepara-
tory to resuming the offensive. II is
analogous to the press campaign which
preceded the assault March 81. In the
present campaign the German people
are assured that when the offensive is
resumed, ii will continue until the war
is ended. This, coupled with numerous
other indications along the allied front
and information from prisoners Indicate
the Germans plan a repetition of the
original offensive, hoping to separate
the main French and British armies by
another offensive Or Hutiers massed
attacks, such as was so successful at
Riga on the eastern front. This prob
ably will be directed against a sup
posed weak spot in the allied lines.
Detailed preparations necessary to
launch such an attack explain the pres
ent lull.
The German staff has worked out it's
plans to the minutest details, rehearsed
the storm troops until they are letter.
perfect and remass men and material
behind the line, from where they can be
rushed up during the night for sur
prise attack in the morning. Despite
the fact it is established that the Ger
mans have lost half n million men to
March 80, it is known positively they still
have another half million in reserve,
with which they can MI UP their fresh
losses, thus rendering possible a dupli-
cation of their offensive effort. With
the present unity of command, coupled
with their defensive preparations the
allies are awaiting the shock with su-
preme confidence.
