As all loving mothers. know.

Watched to see the boys 60 BY
Omen minds, right frank and clean,
Their own epics scarce begun,
All the centuries have seen
Pages fair to write upon;
Steady nerve, unfaitefing heart,
Fortified BY love and fun,
Answering to the mans full part
So seems every mothers son.
Mother! Mother. Did we try
To smile. as they went marching by?
Fearless souls. so brave and gay,
Sought your sympathizing eyes.
TfamPiag maHfully away
To what hopeless sacrihcef

To this end q soldier dies.

WHEN A q. S. SOLDIER DIES

From the Argonne,
And Pieardy's bloody plains:
From the frightful fields of Flanders
Comes list of heroes names.
From Cantigny, Chateau -Tbierry,
And the mountains overhead,
From the solemn sound of carnage,
Hear the message of the dead.
But there's joy as we'll as sorrow
In the midst of our despair,
As we read the roll of honor
OF our brave boys over there.
For they faced that awful slaughter,
And fell lighting side by side.
That the bonny flag of freedom
viii remain our hope and pride.
Now, no matter what their record
Might have been in other days,
They have died to save their country,
And Wen always sing their praise.
&c. we're firm in the conviction
That the 'snansiens in the skies''
Have Q front door always open
When q q, s. soldier dies.

CONSIDER FEDERAL
WARRANTS As WAY
OUT INR. R. TANGLE
Executives and Director Hines
i, Discuss New Plan to Finance
the Carriers; Would Be Used
as Loan Collateral.

Washington, March 11.-Financing
Of the railroads by government war
rants which might be used az collat-
eral for loans, was considered as one
of the means of extricating the lines
from the present dilemma at the, con-
ference of railroad executives with Dr.
rector General Hines today.
Hines told the conference that he
had cut his program for expenditures
to 01,000,000 as the amount required
to June 80, 1919.
The warrants, which Hines said ard
being considered, could be used as a
medium to stave off any financial de-
bacle until an appropriation can be had
from congress. it was officially stated.
AS BANK COLLATERAL.
If the railroads receiving these war;
rants desire to make loans through
banks they would be permitted to use
the government notes as collateral.
1t was made clear to the railroad ex-
ecutives, Hines said, that their finance
ing to large extent must be made by
the railroad corporations. That being
true, the resources of the war finance
corporation will be reserved to protect
special cases. The war finance corpor-
alton has available for this purpose =
total of s337, 100000.
Hines and the conference generally
proceeded, it was asserted, on the view
that it was highly desirable to provide
ways for payment of bills Immediately
and have this situation met through
financial effort rather than by gener-
al suspension of work.
This alternative was selected, 1t was
said, because Of ths deterrent effect up..
on business, of the other nlan.

NO NONSENSE.


II any attempt is made to carry out
the threat to refuse acceptance of the
peace treaty and throw the country
into chaos If the terms are too harsh.
Germany will find the allies represent
ing firm front
The choice in such case probably
lies between occupation of Germany
and continuation of the blockade, let
ting the enemy starve until they are
ready to sign. Considering the COM
parative contentment in the present oo-
cupied portions of Germany, the latter
course is considered more likely.
According to present plans, the
treaty will be handed to the Germans
at Versailles Immediately after their
arrival there. The enemy delegates will
then be allowed to return to Berlin or
Weimar for consultation with their
government, afterward coming back to
Versailles for the formal signing.
That Count Bernstorff will not be
a member Of the German delega-
tion appeared certain today, as tho
allies have taken action to make
clear that he would not be welcome.
Tho move Of the supreme war
council in abolishing conscription
in Germany was accepted as prob
ably meaning the death blow to
that system throughout the world.
GENERAL CHANGES.
Under present political conditions In
other European countries. it was be-
lieved this was the only Interpretation
which could be applied to the coun-
ellis action.
Although other nations. such, as
France and Italy, may retain conscrip-
tion for the present, it appeared likely
that the future will bring general
changes. The difficulty attending the
conscription question in Great Britain
was made obvious by the trouble en-
countered by Premier Lloyd George
since the extension Of the conscription
law. France at present has three
year conscription service term, but with
the German menace removed and no
big potential army threatening or un-
likely to be able to-the action of the
war council was expected to influence
her as well as other countries, on the
principle that compulsory military ser
vice, never being welcome, would be
even less attractive with no incentive.
Such a development, it is accepted,
will permit rapid scaling down of ar
mics under the league of nations plan
and will mean a long step toward in
ternational disarmament
