Power, According to Commis-

Washington, April Is. - Revenue
Commissioner Daniel c. Roper de

the wartime prohibition, which be-
comes effective July L. is not lodged
with the internal revenue bureau Or
with any other government agency,

Intimation that because of the ap.

wartime prohibition act will naturally

that neither the President nor the

FOES WAR DEBT RAISED
Now Said to Have Been Placed
at Fifty Billions.
Election in England Causes Lloyd
George to Urge Change in Plans,
Which Is Made.

Paris, April 15.-Alarmed by the re-
suit of the by-election at Hull last
week, Premier Lloyd George of Great
Britain, according to the Echo de
Paris, has persuaded the Council Of
Four to revamp completely the finan-
cial plan to be incorporated in the
treaty of peace
Instead of a payment of $4,000, ,000,-
600 on account and annual payments
to be fixed by commission, it has
been decided to fix at once the amount
which Germany will have to pay with
in so years. This amount is kept Sc
cret, but 1t is indicated by the news
papers that a figure of $4,000, 900, 900
has been agreed on, which includes all
war damages as well as the cost OF
pensions. The first installment of $5,-
O00,000,000 must be paid within 18
months, the newspaper declares.
Indications are that a combination
of the peace treaty and league of ma
tions documents will be written into
preliminary peace treaty within the
coming two weeks. The Germans then
will be called in and the present
peace conference will be merged
into the Peace congress"
The Council of Four is understood
to have fixed for the Peace congress
tentative dates between April 26 and
May 5, but no announcement has been
made as to details, SO that Premier
Lloyd George may have something to
disclose when he addresses the Brit.
ish Parliment.
Premier Lloyd Georges trip to Eng.
land will be brief one, according to
the Petit Journal. He will be back in
Paris in two or three days the news
paper says.

WOMEN BIG HELP ON
VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN
Preliminary Work Is Well Mapped Out
Big Showing In Former Loans
to Be Exceeded This Time.

Preliminary returns show that the
women workers of the Seventh Fed
eral Reserve district are out to make
a big showing in the Victory Liberty
Loan. Women chairmen and workers
are everywhere signing up for the
fifth campaign. There have been very
few designations, ii Is reported, from
women who felt that their obligation
to the nation had ended because the
fighting in France was ended.
On the contrary, ii is asserted by
Miss Grace Dixon, director for women,
Seventh district, and by other leaders
in the women's loan activities, the
women workers feel more strongly
than ever their obligation to get out
and personally go after bond subscrip-
tons. The very fact that individuals
are found who do not appreciate the
obligation resting upon the civilian
population has aroused in double force
the patriotic sense of duty in the
breast OF the women workers. These
are asserting through letters re-
ceived at Chicago headquarters by
every mail that they intend to work
twice as hard as in any preceding
loan-if that be posslble-in order to
counterfeit the gutter" sentiment
that is manifesting itself among GER
tain individuals in every community.
Preliminary work is well mapped
out in a majority of the counties in
the district. II is planned to have a
larger number of women workers en-
rolled everywhere than was the case
in the preceding loans. Workers al
ready are securing pledges from re-
cruits and veterans and 1t Is promised
that a better showing will be made i'm
every state than In any Of the Liberty
loans so far placed.
The Fifth loan, it is pointed out, will
come at a time when women on the
farms and In the smaller communities
can give an especially large amount
of time to the loan work. The drive,
coming in April, will precede the ac-
tive farm and garden work and the
women will, therefore, be In q position
to concentrate on the campaign In a
way they were unable to do in the
Fourth loan.
The results of the Victory Loan are
expected to prove a monument to the
patriotism and self-sacrifice Of the
women Of the Seventh Federal Re
serve district, for the spirit of service

lean people at this time.
