| ABOARD PRESIDENTS TRAIN
ENROUTE TO SIOUX FALLS, Sept
Shaving declared his opposition tc
all peace treaty reservations. and as
lserted he would gladly make any sac
rifice to assure ratification. President
/ Wilson this afternoon invaded the
northwest in his campaign for accept
ance of the document.
! His next stop is Sioux Falls, S. D.
where he speaks tonight, then pro.
ceeds to Minneapolis and st. Paul.
| There were many dramatic features
in the presidents Omaha speech. His
declaration to the effect that il he per
isonally stood in the way of consum
nation of the peace settlement he
would be glad to give up his life fol
1T, was received in impressive silence
His use of copy o, the peace treaty
Iruffling its pages, pounding it for EN-
iphasis and holding it out to the peo
pie like an old school preacher ex
pounding on his Bible, was widely
commented upon.
Wilson is glad, he said in his speech
that republicans are taking such a
prominent part on the reception com
imittees, as that lends non-partisan
atmosphere.
/ The president seemed refreshed by
q long automobile ride through the
residential part Of Omaha before go
ing to the auditorium. The crowds
were sparse-and quiet. The greet
Iings to the chief executive mostly
took the form of a doffing Of hats and
waving of handkerchiefs and flags
with scattering hand clapping. At nc
time did the applause bring Wilson to
his feet Many school children were
drawn up to meet him.
The president stopped at the modest
home of the aged mother of G. \. and
Gould Dietz, prominent Omaha re
Ipublicans, one of whom was in charge
Iof the reception, walked to the porch
shook hands and conversed for a few
minutes, while the neighbors came by
scores, running across the broad
lawns. and clustered about the house
After his speech Wilson returned
Immediately to the train. going
through the streets at fast clip. He
walked from his automobile to the pri
vate car through lane Of double
ranks of troops, standing at present
arms"
It was expected there would be a
strong demand for rear platform
speeches during the afternoon, espe
cially at Sioux CITY, Iowa, but the
Ipresident will not speak unless the de
mand is very inslstent. His voice
needs to be rested as much as pos
sible.
There was a good sized crowd at the
depot to see the president off. He
went to lunch shortly after leaving
Omaha. The time his train would
pass seemed generally known al
many way stations where many scores
assembled, men holding up their chill
dren in their arms, hoping for a
glimpse of Wilson. Whenever the
train stopped people came running
beside it shouting:
"Where's Wilson,"
The president came out on the real
platform at Omaha and shook hands
with many of those who had come to
see him off They pressed forward
eagerly and Wilson had busy time
gripping all the hands extended to
him. He gave hard squeeze and a
double shake.

Land Bank Loans
Reach Large Sum
Farmers Take Nearly Million in
Month Of June

Columbia, July 2-The Federal
Land Bank of Columbia has been no
tilted that all Of the $54, 100000 in
bonds have been sold. The bonds
bear interest at the rate Of 4 1-2 per
cent. and are tax free. They have
been advertised recently in many
newspapers and the entire issue has
been taken, according to advlces
reaching the land bank in Columbia.
During the month of June, the bank
in this district closed loans amount
ing to $4,000 Had the month been
one day longer Treasurer Root is OF
the opinion that loans for the month
would have amounted to an even mil
lion.
Officials of the bank say that nu-
merous applications for loans are be-
ing made, despite the fact that at the
present time farmers are busily en-
gagged in cultivating their crops. The
bank in this district has made loans to
the amount Of $12 100000.
In the four States comprising the
district there are 800 farm loan as
ociations. and 5000 loans have been
made. The average loan is slightly
more than $4,000, which is not too
large to prove burdensome and is al
the same time large enough to be
profitable.
Farmers are rapidly becoming IA
miliar with the methods of the land
bank. and il is rapidly growing in
popularity With members of the va
rious loan associations widely scat
tered, prospective borrowers have Ut
lie difficulty in learning from their ac-
1uaintances the methods OF the bank
and they become familiar with ths
advantages which il offers over the
old line mortgage company the
pioneer work which WAS necessary a'
irst naturally made loans go some
what slowly. but the number or ap-
olicants has grown steadily, and TODAY
he bank is proving Of great value to
farmers over the district.

Communists Warned
Against Violence
Nothing to be Gained by Civil
War

Berlin, June Correspondence
The Communist Independents are
warned earnestly by DR.. Herr, the
Hamburg ultra radical leader Of one
group of the German extreme Inde-
pendents that they must be resigned
to depending for some time on the
intellectual employers capitalism
whose knowledge Of the economic sit
uation is still indispensable and
therefore Specialization must proceed
very slowly.
The Communists demand for a
proletariat is an effort to reach a
stage of development by violent al
vance for which the present day con-
ditions are not ripe" he says. Only the
underestima ton Of economic thought
can mislead one to the view that with
methods Of violence an economic ac-
vance can be gained. If four years
war should be followed by a four years
civil war the victor whether Luden-
dorff, Noske, or the Sparta cans viii
rule over field Of corpses. If the
economic life is to bloom again socia
conflicts must take form which elm
mates as far as possible all violent
methods"

Praise for Y. NJ. C. A.
Gen. Pershing Writes a Letter
of Appreciation of It's Splen-
did Work

Paris, June 2 (By Maii)-The army
has been Enrea asonable at times in
its expectations from the Young
Mems Christian Association because
the '.Y'' spirit of willingness made the
doughboy take for granted the asso-
cations ability to accomplish results.
Cen. Persh:ng declares in a. letter OF
commentator to E. c. Carter. Chief
Y. NJ. c. A., Secretary with the Amer
ican Expeditionary Force.
con behalf Of the a. E. F., desire
TO express to you and to your fellow
workers my appreciation and thanks
for the splendid services which the \.
N. c. A. has performed for the Amer
ican army in Europe" Gen. Pershins'
letter reads.
when the first contingents began
arriving, the Y. M. C.. A. began that
work for the American soldiers which
has ever kept pace with the growth
Of the American Expeditionary Force
All the divisions and most Of the
smaller organizations have enjoyed its
benefits and services. Besides main
tanning the usual recreation huts, ii
has conducted canteens where the
men could purchase small supplies
and, in addition, the Y NJ. c. A. has
constantly distributed, without charge
tobacco, hot drinks an3 the ike at the
front.
Another service Of great value has
been the creation of and the work n
leave areas, where the problem c1
giving the men occasional respiIsS
from the routine of army life has bee1
solved. The facts which made this
possible have been the recreationdl
facilities in the leave areas, and es-
pecially the presence and splendid
assistance of the American women
with the Y NJ. c. a.
"Other branches Of your endeavol
deserving of special mention are
those connected with education, en-,
'tertainment and athletics. In each
Of these departments the Y. N. G. A
has done excellent work, but the fea
lures which I have mentioned do MOI
begin to cover the activities of the
Association which has at all time:
shown itself eager to undertake any
extension of its work to meet tbs
wishes of the military authorities
This spirit of willingness has resulted
in the army's taking for granted
much Of your society's ability to &C.
conplisl1 results, and sometimes eS-
pecting more than was reasonably al
lowable under the circumstances. III
fact yours has been the same spirit
which has animated the American
army and made possible its contribu-
ton to the successful conclusion OF
the war
