OUR GOVERNMENT HAS OFFERED NO
 SUGGESTIONS YET
Ry RevIew Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The Amer ican government has made no sug- gestions whatever to Chile and Peru as to the disposition of the disputed provinces of Tacn6 and Africa. This was announced officially tonight at the state department
 The state department" said the announcement, has made no sugges- tion whatever as to territory, but has urged that everything possible be done to maintain peaceful relations" :"
 This was the first information that the United States government had communicated with the Chilean and Peruvian governments concerning the dispute over the two provinces.
 Diplomatic observers here sug- gested some time ago that should the American government be asked to in- terfere it probably would take into consideration Bolivia's claims because the disputed territory was once a part of that republic and through it Bolivia could again be given an out let to the Pacific. Officials, however, have declined to comment on this suggestion.
 According to official information re- ceived today at the Chilean embassy. the statement that the military and naval reserves have been called to arms is incorrect. What took place, according to this information, was an administrative measure of an in ternal nature" including a decision that it was impossible to continue in service the drafts recently dis charged.
 The Peruvian legation also was ad- vised from Lima that the Peruvian military reserves have not been called to the colors It also was said that the relations between Peru and Brazil are in no way affected by the dispute with Chile.

Camp Custer Ordered to Aid Cam
paign

EVERY army camp and cantonment
in the United States will begin war
Immediately against the diabolical
German gas, by saving pits and shells.
An order directing that these materi-
ais be collected Systematically for
shipment to points of utilization has
been issued by General r. E. Wood,
acting quartermaster general.
"Table and kitchen waste from all
messes will be carefully sorted out
and pits of peaches, apricots, prunes,
olives, dates, cherries and plums, as
we'll as shells of Brazil and hickory
nuts, walnuts and butternuts will be
thoroughly dried and bagged for ship
ment twice every month. Because Of
traffic congestion, no shipment of less
than 100 pounds will be made; but
the quantities collected at canton
ments are expected to be large.
Only Collect Material Specified
"No attempt will be made to sepa-
rate the different pits and shells speci-
fled, but no other material will be
shipped, because only these listed have
been found by government chemists
to produce a grade of carbon good
enough to stand up against the worst
of the German gases.
Commanding officers at all posts
have been directed to aid in planning
for collections from the canteens, as
we'll as messes. The Conservation and
Reclamation Division of the Quarter
masters Corps, which has in its charge
disposal of all garbage and other
waste, is cooperating in the campaign.
Civilians everywhere are being urged
to turn in these materials that may
save many soldiers from death, and OF
course Michigan will be in the fore
front as always" said Mr.. Prescott
with a show of pride.

A BROADSIDE WITH
vi, HEAVY ARTILLER1

Barry county Republicans struck q
ringing blow at Henry Ford and exc
cutive interference in the following
resolution, so good that every person
should read it.
Listen:
"We unqualifiedly protest against
the unwarranted assumption of the
present democratic head in seeking
to dominate the policy of the repub-
lican party in this state, dictate its
nominations, and name its leaders,
as undemocratic, unrepublican, and
un-American. We especially de-
nounce the bungling attempt to name
for United States senator and repub-
lican party leader in Michigan a
webbing pacifist, who has advocated
weak surrender of national indie
pendence, and individual liberty;
whose infantile attempts to settle the
war demonstrate his unfamiliarity
with international problems and his
impracticability and incompetency
for patriotic party leadership; whose
principal political ambitions have
been to keep his son out of the army
and to finance nationwide campaign
attuned to the slogan che kept us out
of war;" who has declared in favor
of hauling down the flag; and who, by
his acts, by his utterances and his
promises, has lent aid and comfort to
our enemies. We call upon all patrio-
tic Americans to defeat this spineless
dreamer and to select for United
States senator a gentleman, a patriot,
and republican, Truman H. Newber-
ry.
"We commend the friends of Tru-
man H. Newberry in conducting a
campaign of education, of publicity
and of patriotism is the interests
of the American national welfare, and
in seeking to overcome the unpatriotic
and traitorous sentiments artifcially
created by the enormous expenditures
of money by Henry Ford and Count
Won Bernstorff."

FIRST PRINCIPLES OF THE UNI
TED STATES LIBERTY LOANS

Credit is the ground on which Wa
grows; the sap in the tree; the ripe
fruit which war yields to victoriou.
nations.
What is War Credit? 1t is the en-
listing of future national wealth by
the Government to produce fighting
strength.
What is High Credit in war?
1t is the unanimous faith of a ma
ton in the peoples ability to max.
good all the Governments promises t.
pay.
So long as fighting nation ha:
that faith and acts accordingly, Vic
tory is certain. Certain, though lonf
deferred.
Before the United States entered
this war the income of the Natior
was estimated at $25, 100000 an
nually. The Government enlisted
credit on vast scale, discounting the
ability of Americans to create a much
larger annual addition to the nationa
wealth. Already the annual incre
ment of the people has gone beyond
SIS, 900, 100000. That is an index Of
our credit.
How do the people evidence theil
faith in the Credit of the Government
and in the withdrawing vigor Of
the nation?
They do it chiefly by being willing
yes, by being eager-to exchange
their accumulated Savings for the
Governments promises to pay at 6
time long in the future.
They do it by reducing, as much as
they can, their spending for present
sGtisfactions; and by lending as much
as possible of their current earnings
to the Government, on the security Of
the Governments promises to repay.
Hence, Victory for America in this
War against Kaiserism DEPENDS
CHIEFLY on the liberality with
which the American people Buy Lib
erty Bonds. A man who refuses t.
give this evidence of his faith in the
United States of America does an act
that tends to impair the Credit of the
United States, and so to encompass
the defeat of the United States in this
war against Tyranny.
Every American must buy Fourth
Liberty Bonds to the limit of his
ability.

SCHOOL CHILDREN TO BUY
AND SELL WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

Plans for launching a campaign for
the sale of war savingA stamps
throughout the county to last until
the war is over, with the pupils as the
statesmen, were set under way Friday
when j. v. MvNally, of Detroit, as
sistant to, the state school campaign
manager, visited Owosso and confer
red with the county and city school
heads and County Campaign Manager
w. ]. Melchers.
The general plan is outlined by the
state organization, while the methods
of working are left to the schools
themselves. The general plan is to
divide the grades in the various school
buildings into groups, to be sub-di-
vided into teams. Or if the pupils
prefer, each room can compose one
team or each grade can be divided into
3eams. The main idea, however, is to
arouse enthusiasm by competition he
tween the teams and groups. Each
week the standings of each team or
group are published and in other CT
zies and counties, there is great rival
ry for the leadership.
The children would not only buy
stamps themselves but would sell them
TO their parents or anyone who win
buy
Military buttons are given for meri-
torious work in the sale of the stamps.
The sale of 500 is rewarded by a
captains button, 5000 by a majors,
$500 by colone's and $1,000 by a
generals. One youngster in Detroit
has five generals buttons.
The school board had already made
testative plans for adopting the cam
paign system before M. Mentally came
here. Miss Elsie Whipple, assistant
superintendent of schools has been in
sts1icted to work out a plan for the
campaign and the details will be an
nonnced as soon as they are ready.
