FOE PRoPAGANDISTS AND
ALLIED "UNF0RGIVABLES"
THREATEN PEACE SUCCESS

There are two sharply opposing ele-
ments that today are gravely threat
ening the success of the peace con-
ference.
First, there is the open and fragrant
efforts Of the Germans to secure SYM
pathy in the United States. France,
Japan. and in South America in the
expectation that such sympathy can
be capitalized at the peace table.
This propaganda is of the most in
sidious SOFT.
The suggestions by DR.. Solf, the
German foreign secretary. that un
less the armistice terms. in so far
as they touch on occupation OF the
territory west of the Rhine, are not
modified 1t will make for the spread
of BoIshevikism.- is typical German
lie. Hisssiatement that .HBiess there
are notifications" the effect shall be
that I'VE shall inevitably advance to-
ward more or less Bolshevist condi-
tions, which might become danger
Gus to neighboring states" is one of
the covert threats which Germany
has made so familiar throughout the
war, diplomats and Administration Of
icials pointed out today. The intima-
ton is that there is danger for France
and Italy aud even Great Britain in
the Red" movement in Germany.
This was bitterly resented today by
officials who are entirely familiar
with the subject.
Another typical bit of German
propaganda, the changes on which
are being worked in every possible
way, is that Germany actually faces
starvation and needs an early peace.
This also is a fabrication. Germany
no longer needs to husband her re-
sources in food. She has been prom

Querors and can break into her re-
serves for present needs. But the
German propaganda organization is
using the food appeal for sympathy,
and this also is designed TO be capi-
talized for peace conference.
Lined up on the other side is the
''unforgivable" element in the coun-
tries that have suffered the most Sc
verely through German atrocities and
German violation of ell of the rules
of civilized warfare. This is the ele-
ment which believes that Germany
should be obliterated entirely as a
word power and boycotted for all
time in the markets of the world. 1t
includes British and British colonial
leaders, French. italian, and Belgian
leaders of thought. This element al
ready openly is calling for personal
punishment to be meIed out to all
central power officials-German, Aus
trian, Bulgar, and Turk--espDnsible
in any way for the atrocities that for
four years have horriied civiliza-
ton. Aiding its cause are she men
who have advocated the taking of
steps at the peace conference 10 deny
the central powers either voice or
vote in the deliberations of that body.

II Americas most famous beauty

forced to have one or two years COM
pulsofy physical training, and every
woman would be compelled to take a

introduced to a bar OF good pure soap
and a bowl of fresh warm water.

and there Lillian Russell sat, younger,
fresher, much more beautiful than

Death or Mrs. Ella F. White.

This estimable lady deserves and is
worthy of more than a short notice of
her death. Mrs. Eleanor Fletchall White,
widow of Benjamin Rush White and the
oldest daughter Of the late William and
Sarah Fletchall Matthews. departed this
life June 3rd, 1918. aged 76 years.
She was born near Poolesville and had
resided in different sections Of Maryland,
also in Virginia. She died In Washington, d
C. She united with the Presbyterian Church
here while child. She adhered to the law
written down in the Bible Remember
now thy Creator in the days Of thy youth
She was a consistent member OF her church
and abided by its discipline. She was a
noble character and Christian. She at
tended divine service in her own church
when it was possible to do so and at other
churches TO listen to the Holy Scripture
when she could not reach her own.
The Bible was a comfort to her in her
latter days. when she was deprived Of the
privilege of entering the sanctuary in which
to worship. Approaching the end Of her
life journey, she suffered much with cancer.
She was ready when the summons came.
and has reached her reward which is in
conuptible and that fadeth not away.
She often remarked in her letters. I'VE

know us no more forever, and we should

Wheat Price Increase Above S2.20
Allowed.

President Wilson, by an executive order
has given blanket authority to increase
the price Of wheat at primary and other
markets above the $500 bushel mini
mum price guaranteed by his proclamation
of last February.
This authority is given to the Food Ad-
ministration Grain Corporation in New
York upon the recommendation of Food
Administrator Hoover
With this authority the corporation is
allowed to increase its capital stock from
$50,000,000 to $l50,000.000. in shares
Of par value of 500 each. All the stock
will be owned by the government and will
be purchased by the food administration
from time to time as the necessity arises
to maintain the present $2.20 price and
any increase authorized.
While no explanation Of the order was
given either at the food administration or
the White House, two considerations were
believed to have influenced the Presidents
decision to permit the grain corporation to
pay higher prices for wheat The first was
the increased freight rates which will be-
come effective next Tuesday.
Growers must bear this increase. With
out an advance in the price of wheat their
profits would be materially reduced.
The second was believed to be the stu
alton resulting from the deadlock in Con-
gress over the Senate's amendment to the
annual agricultural appropriation bill in
creasing the minimum guaranteed price for
wheat to $3.50. The House has refused
to accept the amendment and the Senate
is to vote on it again this week. In some
quarters 1t is believed that the Presidents
action will be factor in influencing the
Senate to recede from the amendment.

THE LOCAL BOARD FOR MONTGOMERY
COUNTY, STATE OF MARYLAND.
Don't Expect The Children To Do
1t All.

Owing no doubt to the good work of
those hustling. keen young boys and girls
who have SO generously given of their time
and their pennies to the thrift campaign,
the impression has been created In the
minds Of many that War Savings Stamps
are for children only.
Let us stop to consider the matter for
moment.
The Congress authorized an issue OF
$2,000,000.000 W. S. S. to be sold in 1918
The purpose Of the Stamps is twofold u
To get money for the Government for war
needs; (2) to instil the habit of thrift in
the American people and by the practice
of thrift save labor and materials for the
Government
Can we expect the children. splendid
workers that they are. to account for ST.
000,000.000 Of StampsH
Do we consider that the children alone
Of all our population need to be inculcated
with the thrift idea : Are they the only
spendthrifts
Certainly not.
War Savings Stamps are for everyone
No one, be he millionaire or be he the
humblest laborer. can say truthfully that
he is not interested in W. S. S. and the
saving program that they stand for.
There are. indeed few men and women
in the land unable to save and ecOnomize
more than they do now. II they want to
be listed among the patriotic people Of the
land they must save and economize more
than they do now. The winning Of the war
with the least possible sacrifice demands
this, for there are not enough labor and
materials for the Governments war needs
and for the use Of the spendthrifts.
Cut out those useless expenditures. All
Of US have them. Remember that our boys
in the Army and Navy do not expect luxu-
ries and do not grumble even II they do
not get all the comforts that they are sup
posed to get.
