FARMERS TIRE OF
NATIONS BACKBONE"
PHRASE AND YET
The Words Have Peculiar Significance
in Victory Loan Campaign.

Farmers have been told so often
shat they are the backbone of the n9
tons prosperity that they sometimes
gr0w tired of hearing the phrase re-
peated. But this year the wo. Is have
more than ordinary significance.
It costs money to raise and trans
port the produce Of American fields
and farms. The farmer made money;
he received higher prices for his crops
than had ever been paid before in the
history of the country.
Z is true that the war has been
gloriously ended But the Job has not
been ended.
When the American puts his hand
30 the pillow he does not look back
When he puts his name on note he
makes good. It is the American way.
And nobody doubts that the American
people will make good on the Victory
Liberty Loan In entering the war
they put their name to a promlssory
Eote to their government which is
about to fall due
These words are just a reminder OF
obligations. The farmer has pros
pered, in some cases even beyond his
dreams. And prosperity is coming to
him in the future in even greater
measure. The world must come to
America for food. The war is over.
bat the job is not. America will finish
it in true American 100 per cent style.

Nations League Loan
ADVOCATED By German
(By Associated Press)

BERLIN, Sunday, June 8. DR..
Bernhard Dernburg, minister of fl
nance, advocates in the course of an
interview printed in the Tageblatt, a
league of nations loan to finance ma
tions seeking to recover their eco
nomic equili librium.
DR.. Dernburg suggests that such
loans as are granted former warning
countries might be guaranteed by tax
es or other real pledges as security
and, arguing that the "irreconcilable
demands" of the entente are largely
due to the preoccupation Of France
over her grave financial position"
considers that if peace is based upon
the league of nations principle, there
must be international solidarity in fl
nancial as well as political fields"
THE chief difficulty of the unbear
able financial clauses Of the peace
terms would thus be solved" he says
"The reconstruction of France would
be assured and Germany would get
bread, work and a possibility of full
filling her obligations"

climbed into big car standing in

and he confined himself largely to
this method. He confessed, the police
say. to stealing thirty machines in the

Meredith is accredited with saying

FIX WAR BLAME,
PLAN OF ENEMY
Bill Providing for Investiga-

(By Associated Press,

BERLIN, June 9.-The constitu-

consideration of bill creating state
court which would try those accused
of starting, lengthening and losing
the war. 1t will be presented to the
national assembly soon.
The measure provides for COM
mittee Of fifteen members of the nat
ional assembly to investigate the po-
litical and military leadership of the
country prior to the war, and requires
the government to produce any docu-
ments needed at the projected trial.
The court would be composed of fif-
teen members, including the presi-
dents Of the imperial, military, Prus-
sian, Bavarian and Hanseatic supreme
courts, five members of the national
assembly and five senators. The &C
cused would be permitted to have
counsel and would be given the privi

court would be secret and there would
be no appeal from its verdict.

whether the baleful result could no
have been partly or wholly avoided,
says a statement which will accom-
pany the bill when it is presented tt
the national assembly. This is thu
task of the state court, although i
! can render no final verdict becaus,
it is unable to see the archives o

has caused the government to appl,
for the creation of an internationa
investigation commission which wa
denied by its opponents. So the cour
should be created to iyestigate wheth
er Germans have been guilty of cor
duct against the fatherland."
The statement declares the cour
should be above party policies and re
sponsible only to its conscience.
