LEAGUE DRAFT TO
AWAIT PRESIDENT

PARIS, Feb. 2J.-Nothing will be
done with the draft OF the League
of Nations until President Wilson re-
turns to Paris, It can be stated au-
thoritatively today.
Efforts have been made by some Of
the delegates, notably the British,
to hasten consideration Of the cove
uant by bringing the matter before
the council OF ten in the Presidents
absence. The American viewpoint,
however. is that the President was
so closely identified with the consti-
tuition that nothing should be done
in his absence to modify the text OF
any important essential, and the
view certainly will prevail.
In view OF this consideration. the
summoning of neutrals TO Paris to
get state rents Of their position will
be delayed until the middle of March.
The conferees have decided to hold
up the military terms to Germany
limiting her armed strength on land
and sea until territorial and economic
terms can be included in the peace
preliminaries, although this decision
can be changed by the Big Five IL 1t
is deemed necessary
1t had previously been suggested
that the military terms limiting the
size Of Germany's army be submitted
at once.
AwaIt FrOutiers Report.
The boundary commission consider
ing problems attending the new
Franco-German frontier has not re-
ported to the. conference.
During the weekend the delegates,
as a result of unofficial conferences,
came to the conclusion that it will
not be as difficult as once seemed
probable TO reach an agreement as
to the territory on the left bank of
the Rhine. The French have not yet
submitted their official proposals, but
it is informally assorted that they
will not claim any annexatiOns on
the left bank of the Rhine. Their
chief desire is to make the Rhine the
military frontier between Germany
and France.
Polish Troops n Problem.
The conference is now confronted
with another obstacle-the difficulty
of transporting General Haller's two
Polish divisions from France to Po-
land. Br1tiSh ana french OtncerS
were sent to Dantzig to examine the
port and the Dantzig-Thorn railroad
from a military and naval viewpoint.
but they have not reported, and the
movement of the Polish troops will
not be undertaken unless the report
is favorable.
The concensus of opinion in the
conference is that the Polish troops
should be dispatched not only to aid
Poland in her anti-Bolshevik fight,
but also to strengthen her against
German menace.

rha experience of MT. E. J.

I could get only tem- pOaaTT aTbis winter I was taken with cr;n and was in awful shape. A so,iew uie workman advised me to take tpENRU-NA. By the time l had nsed three-fourths of bottle, the Sosrseness was gone, also that tired feeling. 1 am on my second hottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will bs constantly in my house. It is the best medicine ever put up for the purpose"
 T For any disease due to catarrh o, catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA ;s equally dependable. Coughs, nolds catarrh of the head, stomach trouble, constipation, rheumatism, mains in the back, side and Joins, bloating, belching gas, indigestion, catarrh of the large and small in- testines, are some of the troubles for which PE-RU-NA is especially recommended.

MILLIONS NOW AVAILABLE
FOR FOREST ROADS


Denver, March 9.-The development
Of National Forest roads in the west
was given great impetus by the terms o
the Postotfice Appropriation Act which
the President signed on March 3, 1919
The new law increases by $500, UUU, ,OOt
the total fund of the Federal Aid Road,
Act, and &lso makes available for expen
diture by the Secretary Of Agriculture
50, 900, 600 for roads and trails within
and partly within the National Forests.
Officials of the Forest Service District
Office in Denver state that This meas
ure will make possible a much fuller
road development program than has
heretofore existed. Under the Federal
Aid Roads Act, the Forest Service has
had available SlOOO,OOO year. Owing
to the war and the curtaIiment Of road
work, however, there is now an accum.
uIated balance which together with the
new Federal appropriations and the
funds secured from the 10 per cent. OF
National Forest receipts, will make a
grand total Of about SlO,0O0,O 900 in sight
for road work on all the National For
ests Of the United States during the
coming field season.
Tentative plans" Forest officials say
"haYe been prepared for the approval of
the Secretary, calling for the expendi-
ture of over 81, 100000 for road construc-
ton in Colorado, South Dakota and
Wyoming this year; this amount in
cluding cooperative funds received from
the states and counties in which roads
are located. These plans are in such
shape that when approved, it will be
possible 70 start work on them as soon
as weather permits. This legislation
will not only make it easier to protect
the National Forest without costly ex-
penditure, to fight fires in inaccessible
locations, but will also help tremendous
ly the many small communities and
settlers in and near the For
ests who now suffer for lack cf roads
One result will unquestionably be a
marked development OF recreationa use
Of these great Forest Fairgrounds with
their wealth of all too little known at
The PostofIice Act also authorizes the
Secretary Of War to transfer to the Sec.
retary of Agriculture materials, equip
ment and supplies suitable for highway
Improvement and not needed by the
War Department 10 per cent Of all
such material to be reserved, if desired,
for use in building National Forest roads
or other roads constructed under the
direction of the Secretary ofAgriculture.
The $4,000, 1000 fund may be used for
as we'll AS survey and con
struction of both roads and trails within
the National Forests, the law stating
that preference shall be given to the
employ yment of honorably discharged
soldiers, sailors and marines for the re-
quired labor

LET'S FINISH THE JOB.

To bind up the wounds Of America in
a strictly-liberal sense is the purpose of
the Fifth or Victory Liberty Loan that
will be staged next month.
Although it will go ahead without
excitement of war, the urge Of danger,
the enthusiasm Of impending victory
like the Fourth Loan, it has behind it
the solemn call of great national duty
to our soldiers and sailors, the insstant
call of national honor and the duty
America owes the rest of the world. A.
| K. Rogers chairman Of the Ninth Dis
trict War Loan organization, summed
the situation up in the following state
| ment
| THE greatness Of America never was
so assured, never so unquestionably
recognized in the world as today. The
power and might, tie earned and de.
served reputation of the United States
must be maintained We occupy a
commanding position in the world gain.
ed by our fighting men on land and sea
and the superb manner in which the
people at home supported them. This
magnificent record Of patriotism and
self sacrifice must not be marred by fail
ure now. Let's finish the job.
''The splendid work of our army and
navy, supported by millions of Ameri-
cans has removed the chief obstacle to
world peace and justice, Autocracy and
all its evils have been defeated but the
constructive part Of our program re-
mains.
| Finance PLAYED tremendous part in
| the war and finance must play a great
! part in the reconstruction that must fol-
| low in ravished France and Belgium
More than that, the bills incurred by
our peerless army and navy are yet to
be paid. Our armed forces mus: 30
maintained until demobilized; our
wounded and crippled must be cared
| for
