EUROPE is RACING
FOR MORE BUSINESS
The Hurry to Resume Peace Time
Operations Is Causing Distress,
Saws Cecil.

Paris, May 9.-The hurried attempt
CT the war torn nations to get back
to peace time business conditions in.
stead of continuing temporarily the
policy OF interallied control that won
the war for them is blamed for the
present scrambled business condi.
tions in Europe, particularly in east
ern and southeastern Europe, in the
report of Lord Robert Cecil, chair
man of the Supreme Economic Coun,
ell of the Allies. Lord Robert de-
scribes these conditions as grave.
The Allies should exercise joint and
almost socialist control over the eco.
nomic rebirth of Europe to bring
them gently back to normal, rather
than to throw them open to the catch
as catch can competition of conflict
ing interests, the report says.
II this plan is adopted it can readily
be seen that it will have a far reach
ing effect on the Investigations now
being made by American business
firms in the liberated regions,
Lord Robert emphasizes his con
tention that the United States should
make short term advances to such
countries as Czecho-Slovia. Jugo
Slavia, Poland and Rumania, to per
nit them to resume industrial activi
ty. France, Italy and England being
debtor nations to large degree
should not be expected to absorb
large amounts of American products
the reports says, whereas commerce
among the new nations, including Aus
tria and Hungary, should be facilitat
ed by the establishment of coopera
tive banks.
Southeastern Europe is still in Q
state Of torpor Lord Robert says, al
though the allied blockade was lifted
in February. Transportation is
great handicap, causing a feeling o.
decentralization and paralyzing ambi
ton. To remedy this it Is proposed
to create an international transporta
ton company, to restore the wrecked
railroads and waterways and rebuilt

GERMANS WILL
NOT REPORT ON
TREATY FOR WEEK
Delegates Will Consult Their
Government at Berlin
CALL GERMAN ASSEMBLY
Some Of Delegates Favor Repudiatine
Their Leaders Speech AS Being
Too Mild

Paris, May 10.-President Wilson
expressed the belief that nothing
would be heard from the German
pleniponentiaries for week. Meth
er he nor any American delegation
has heard anything in regard to the
published report that the Germans are
preparing to depart from Versailles.
The Germans are at perfect liberty to
return TO Berlin and consult their
government. Such move would not
mean breaking negotiations. The
Germans, it is said, enjoy entire free
dom and diplomatic immunity.
Germany, prostesting that the
peace terms are "unbearable' and
impracticable" will make a counter
proposal for peace of right on the
basis of lasting peace Of nations"
Thus says a proclamation to the Ger
man people issued yesterday at Ber-
lin by President Ebert, which ap-
peals to the people to stand togeth-
er and save itself by it's own ac-
tons A general assembly has been
called for Berlin Monday and it is pro-
bable that a formal consideration of
the treaty win begin then Advices
from Paris Indicate a definite settle
ment of Fiume and Adriatic questions
raised by Italy has not been reached.
Paris, May 9.-Some of the mem
bers of the German delegation are in
favor of repudiating Count Brock
dorff-Tantzaus speech to the allied
delegates at Versailles as being too
mild and unworthy of German dig
nifty. Several of the members of the
German delegation talk of resigning.

With Napkin on Shoulder

LONDON, April 9-The queer ac-
tions of former kaiser. who maintains
at times he is a Socialist. are described
in dispatch from The Hague to the
Daily Mail Today.
Often the former emperor suddenly
jumps UP from the dinner table de-
charing to those about it that these are
days of socialism and that he is only
an ordinary man now and must help
Thereupon he will throw his napkin
over his shoulder and insist upon
helping to wait.
At other times. dressed in a generals
uniform, he struts into the. dining
room. after pompously demanding thai
the butler announce him with all his
titles. After he gets past the soup
and fish courses he has grown de-
mocratic, and by the time the dessert
is served he is fun fledged Socialist.
The former kaiser talks necessarily
from morning to night to everyone
who will listen on any topic whatso-
ever.
The former empress spends most of
her time in prayer.

WAR HABITS

One OF the great lessons which the
war should have taught us is that OF
continuous saving. Anyone can learn
this lesson by making it a habit TO
purchase regularly War Savings
Stamps and Certificates. The govern
Inent needs your money and there is
no safer way by which you can put
by part OF your earnings each week.
II the people continue to supply the
Treasury with funds by their savings
we shall pay on our bills for the war
in the shortest possible time with the
least hurt. The bills must be paid
and in the end they must be paid by
savings The signing OF the armistice
SO far has made no change in the
needs of the Treasury During the
months OF December and January as
great an expenditure was made as
during any month of the war.
II is therefore imperative that we
do not lapse into our old habits Of
wasteful expenditure. II is yitally
important that we continue to supply
the Treasury by buying War Savings
Stamps.

Success of Victory Drive VIII
Mesn More Jobs and
Boos, Industry.

To laboring men Secretary of the
Treasury Carter Glas, hag addressed
the following letter explaining what
the government expects of labor in
the coming Victory Liberty Loan:
Fellow Citizen:
The people of America entered the
war to protect the honor and rights of
the United States. to safeguard the
liberty Of mankind ar, to bring peace
and security to the free nations of
the earth. We expected, each one of
us. tofdo our part. and whenever our
government called on us for men or
money. we answered gladly and gen
erously
We made up our minds to apply
force without stint'-to win at all
costs, and we have won far more
quickly than the most optimistic of us
thought possible. The speed of our
victory saved tens of thousands of
American lives and billions of dollars
ltocost money to make speed, but far
less than would have been necessary
If we had progressed slowly. II will
cost more money to bring our soldiers
back and care for the wounded and
pay the bills for the war supplies
