Will Dictate Terms.

Paris, March 16.-The present deter"
mination in Peace Conference circles is
that, after the Allied and associated
powers have reached complete under
standing regarding the conditions to be
imposed upon Germany, the German
delegates will be called to Versailles, but
they will not be allowed to discuss the
conditions, the intention of the Allied
and associate powers being to dictate
peace.
Either the German delegates must ac-
cept the terms and sign. or state of
war will continue. The general opinion
here is that, in view of the internal sit
uation in Germany, the delegates of that
country will accept rather than expose
the country to graver risk and more
drastic measure.

u. S. Soldier SAYS He Helped
Kill ArChduke.

Camp Sherman, O., March l2.-
Intelligence officers at Camp Sherman
took the deposition today of Private
Frank Hobel, an Austrian of Lorain ,
Ohio, concerning a statement he is
said to have made to another private
that he was one of the three Austrians
who assassinated Archduke Ferdi
nand, of Austria, in 1919, precipi-
tating the world war.
According to Hobcl's story his
father gave him $500 to flee from
Austria after the assassination and he
went to Constantinople and later to
New York, landing in this country
in October, 1914. He was working
in the shipyards at Lorain when he
was drafted and taken to Camp Sher-
man where he spent much of his time
in a hospital. He is now in the hos
pital suffering from tuberculosis.
Hobel's statement was taken thru
an Interpreter. Jacob Brojila, a
cousin, of 100 Long Street, Lorain,
Ohio, is given as his next of kin in
this country.

How To Get Rich.

Do you want to be capitalist?
It's easy. This is the definition OF
how capital is originally acquired, as
framed by Hartley Withers in his
authoritative textbook Poverty and
Waste"
Capital is defined by economists
as wealth set aside to be used in pro-
duction. A certain amount OF 1t ls
necessary before any industry can be-
gin it's work; because industry I'M
plies making or growing something,
and during the process of making or
growing, those who are at work have
to be kept alive out of store that
has to be set aside before hand to that
end. Professor Walkers well known
example is that of a member OF a
savage tribe, living precariously on
fish caught from the rocks which Jut
into the sea, which lays up store OF
dried fish, and keeping itself alive
thereon, makes himself canoe, and
thereafter can paddle in it out OF the
banks which lie two or three miles
from shore, where in one day he can
oct as much fish as he could catch
from off the rocks in "a week. !"
Ills store of dried fish was his
capital, which he reserved from con-
sumption and kept to live on while
making his canoe. Having done so
he has put his capital into canoe
and can let it out to his neighbors,
taking payment from them in the
form of part Of their catch, on which
he can live, while he himself builds
more canoes and sells them in ex-
change for labor of the rest of the
tribe. The point at which he left off
being me re hand-to- mouth work
err and consumer and became a cap
italist, was when, instead of eating
all the fish he caught, he saved some
and dried them 50 that he might be
kept alive while he carried out his
canoe building venture. At every
step of his progress, says Walker
again, capital follows law. 1t arises
solely out of saving"
Every man, woman and child can
lay aside a part of the proceeds OF
his labor, beyond what is necessary
for his present maintenance, and
thus start on the road to capital. The
safest and soundest way Of putting
away your dried fish" today lies in
the purchase of War Savings Stamps.
Even the smallest sums can be put
into Thrift Stamps which grow into
War Savings Stamps.
Capital arises from thrift, and SO
thrift means future happiness.

No Room For Pessimisn1.

Americas future was never so
bright as it emerges from the World
War with its various resources un-
touched.
The feeling of unrest that is mani
fest in some commercial centers, and
the fear of some persons that business
conditions will not adj Just themselves
will be dissipated when they give the
outlook the same careful study and
consideration that has been given the
subject by great financial minds.
Carter Glass does not take pessl.
mistic view of the situation.
"A thing difficult of understand
ing" said Secretary Glass, is the
reactionary spirit which in some
quarters seems to have seized hold OF
American business. 1t manifests it.
self in Il gloomy and pessimistic view
of the future in no way justified by
conditions present or discernible, and
in a disposition to cavil at the further
expenditures the government is under
the necessity of making to liquidate
the war
Instead of days of dark foreboding
these should be days of rejoicing, of
confidence and of high resolve. Amer
lea is the least injured of the nations
which took part in the death grapple
with autocracy on the soil of France
and Flanders. Our fields have not
been devastated, our homes and fac
tories have not been RACED, famine
does not stalk among us. In all ma
terial things the nation is richer and
stronger than it was before the war.
Is the American spirit less cour-
ageous than is the spirit of the
French, or the Belgians? France
Borrowing, but undaunted has set
about to repair the wreck the ruth
less invaders wrought, and refuses to
view the future darkly. Belgium,
stripped of all save honor, looks for
ward to the day when greater nation
shall rise from the ruins of the old.
Shall America then stand and groan
under the imaginings of burden
which it should bear lightly, if felt
at all?
Sight should never be lost of the
fact that the American war debt is
substantially. all owed to the Ameri-
can people. Money to meet the in
terest charges on it and eventually to
pay off the principal will flow back
to the source from which it came. A
national debt of this character is not
a burden to cripple future business.
THE lesson learned by Americans
when they bought Liberty Bonds,
will aid in no small way in restoring
the nations business to the normal
These bonds are held by millions of
people who never before owned a
government security, and who will
not be content to 60 back to the old
way of shiftlessness, but will make
every effort to buy the obligations of
the government to be issued in April"
