Four Minute Men
Are Called Into
Action For Loan

"Four minute men" speakers" to
give momentum to the Liberty Loan
trive and create enthusiasm among
the masses will be called into action
Monday in all parts of the country.
This phase of the propaganda work is
one of the most extensive features of
the program and is expected to pres
ent the issues and needs of the sit
uation directly to the greatest vol
ume of people. Secretary McAdoo
and his associates say that four min
ute men in the second loan campaign
rendered invaluable services and
were responsible for much additional
cooperation that would have gone
misdirected otherwise.

German
Slaughter
Resumed
By J. w. T. MASON.

written for The United Press.)
NEW YORK, April 6.-Resump-
ton by Won Hindenburg of his slaugh-
ter of German power to reach Amiens
lis playing the game of the allies. AS
long as General Foch is able to save
Amiens and prevent the Germans
from cutting in the Amiens- Paris rail
way every new assault ordered by
Won Hindenburg must increase the in
evitable reaction in Germany against
the blood lust of the HohenzoIlerns.
The small gains made by the Germans
in the last "a hours ara not worth
the casualties. The German losses in
these operations are two or three
times the losses Of British and French
who are remaining on the defensive.
Foch's policy of caution is being
fully rewarded by General Won Hin
denburg's ferocious recklessness. 1t
is advantageous for the allies to in
cite the Hohenzollerns into there ever
increasing sacrifices of German
troops. Each destruction of a Ger
man division at this time is a victory
for the allies whether or not the Ger
mans gain small additional area of
territory. The territory will certain
ly be restored to the rightful owners
at the peace conference; but the
peace conference will not come until
the blood-letting of Germany has
worked its cure.
Won Hindenburg's renewed drive
toward Amiens makes him once more
the leech who is unconciously curing
Germany of her military ills.
General Foch's great purpose now
is to remain steadfastly on the defen-
sive, holding his lines for further Ger
man blood-letting. If this is done
successfully, Geeral Foch will have
won his right to be regarded as a
great allied commander.

A CALL TO DUTY.

From the battle fields in France
there comes an unsposen call that
should find an answer in every
Americans heart. The recent great
events in Europe, the successes OF
American arms on the fields of
France, should spur every American
to greater effort.
Our people at home should not rest
on the laurels of our soldiers in
France. Every death on the field OF
honor in the line Of duty and for our
country's cause should be call to uS
for every sacrifice and every exertion
to aid the cause for which our sol
diers are fighting, for which our sol
diers have died.
Increase production, decrease con-
sumption, save, and lend to the gov
eminent. Every cent lent to the
United States is used to support
strengthen, and aid our soldiers ir
France.

RICE PRICES STABILIZED.
Plans for Handling 1918 Crop Per
fected by Food Administration.

Agreements are being completed
between the rice millers of the coun-
try and the Food Administration
with regard to the handling Of the
rice crop of 1918.
The main provisions Of these
agreements are that the miller shall
pay definite prices to the grower,
and shall not sell the clean rice
at more than the prices named
in the contract, ranging from z rs
cents per pound for choice Japan to
91a cents for fancy Honduras. Eis-
tablis,,.ment of these contracts has
been requested by growers in all
parts of the rice-growing section OF
the country, and is believed to be
very beneficial to both producer and
consumer.
It Is hoped the result will be COM
nlete sterilization of the rice indus
try and the distribution of rice to the
consumer without speculation OF
manipulation at reasonable margin
Of profit. Consumers will, IN the
opinion of the Food Administration.
Ibe able to purchase rice at price OF
approximately 10 to II cents PEI
