loan, the treasury explained today,
since the $4,000, 900 total of the
Victory issue is three-fourths Of the
$4,000, 100000 total of the fourth
issue.
The goal assigned each community
and state is left, however, to the fed
eral reserve district loan organiza-
ton in the proportionate tasks as
signed each community in compari-
son with the fourth loan.
Quotas for the twelve federal re-

The Victory Loan. fifth and last Of

Whatever spirit Of "let down" that

PRINCIPLE OF RIGHT OF WAY
 IS REVERSED

Samuel Walter Taylor, editor of "Rider and Driver" condemned the present-day methods of traffic and stated that the principle of the right of way to the party coming from the right approach was opposite to what it should be in an address before the Chamber of Commerce yesterday.
 Among the recommendation made by MT. Taylor to assist in the caution campaign in which the Chamber of Commerce is cooperating with the Rotary club were that parking along streets should be discontinued, that the right of way to the party ap- preaching from the right be discon- tfnued and that the most travelled thoroughfare be designated as the right of way except in such instances as the crossing of main thorough fares. In these cases, he recomm end ed traffic officers. Regarding the gov erning of traffic he believed that the police department had the right of regulating traffic and he declared for the constituting of every policeman as a traffic officer. In cases of minor fnfractions of traffic regulations he recommended the taking of numbers by policemen patrolIing any part of the city and in more pronounced cases.

UNITED STATES IS ONE OF BELGIUM'S
 BIGGEST BUYERS

King Albert will greet on his ar rival in the United States one of Bel giun's best customers from the stand point of international trade. Our trade with Belgium since 1900 has aggre- grated considerably over s1,00o,- 100000 of which more than one-third has been in the form of imports from that country and approximately two thirds were exports thereto.
 Our principal imports from Bel gium in normal years, according to a statement by The National City Bank of New York, consisted of diamonds, India rubber, wool, glass, hides of cattle, manufactures of flax, silk yarns, cotton and silk laces, ivory, nickel ore, and a large number of minor articles, chiefly manufactures. Our exports to that country in 1914. the latest normal year, consisted chiefly of cotton, wheat, meats, min era1 oils, tobacco and lumber.

The consequence is that the present reply of the Chinese gov ernment is. on the whole. vague and meaningless.

 Helplessly China was forced to com ply with the Japanese demands and sign secret treaties which the arr rangement at Paris would make valid.

GREECE AND TERRACE.

@The proposal of the allied council to divide Thrace into three parts. only one of which would be assigned to Greece, is not received with favor by the Greeks. They claim that on the theory of self-deterrnination Thrace in sits entirety should be handed over tozGreece, and they protest particular 1y against any part of the country coming under the rule of Bulgaria.
 Such A. reward for a defeated enc my would be an outrage in their opin- ion and Especially in the case of the brutal Bulgsrians. Equally unjust would it be to leave any part of the country under the control of the Turks. for it was Bulgarian and Turk ish ferocity that had massacred 5O0.- 300 men. women and children of Greek nationality since 1914.
 Americas support of their aspira- tions for the complete control of Thrace is due for the part men of the Greek race played under the Ameri- can flag is another point in their en- treaty that the Washington govern ment should endorse their claim up- on Thrace- In the American army were 5000 Greek soldiers. Of an ex- banding Bulgaria only the same ruth less spirit towards other nationalities Is to be expected as has always been shown.
 Coupled with the claim for Thrace Is also the claim for northern Epi- rus, the twelve islands of the Aegean and western Asia Minor. in all of which the principle of national deter imitation strengthens their position, they say the facts abundantly show.

 At the police station the four of us stood about the front corridor waiting our turn.

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

Canadian Liberals are raising the banner of reciprocity with the United States just at a time when congress is considering the repeal of the Ca nadian reciprocity bill of 1911 which has stayed in force for eight years, though the anti-reciprocity vote in Canada made it a dead law. Commer- cial union with the United States promises to be one of the issues of the Canadian campaign over which a hot fight will be waged.
 The Dominion Liberals have put for ward as -heir standard bearer William Lyon Mckenzie King, who is a for mer fellow of Harvard and was min ister of labor for 8 time in the Laurier ministry in Canada which went down to defeat before Sir Robert Borden on the reciprocity issue.
 The new feeling of Anglo Saxon brotherhood fostered by our associa- tions in the war is sure to have it's ef- feet upon the Canadian people and it would be a poor time for congress to do anything to spoil the chance for increasing reciprocity of kindly feel ing which would follow a reciprocity in trade relations.
 The Liberals in the Dominion are denouncing the defeat of reciprocity and are demanding government econ omy. Costs of government have run up to s1o0 per capita of population. Great Britain and the United States, it is said, raise so per cent. from di- rect taxes: Canada raises only 20 per cent. in that way. National disaster will overtake the country should the present method of financing the coun- try's affairs be continued"
