 GETTING TRADE BACK

NEW YORK, June I17.-Major IT. w. Sill of the American chemical Warfare Service, returned from a survey of the chemical factories on the other side of the Rhine, and says Germany is still strong and we'll prepared to resume the com mercial struggle.

SAYS INDICTMENT
 OF FORMER KAISER
 IS MOST INDUSTRIOUS

LONDON, June 12.-Interviewed by a Globe correspondent, General Ludendorff declares that the peace terms, as drawn. cannot be carried out. Conditions imposed" he says, "are extraordinarily hard and ap- pear more in accord with French thirst for revenge and needs of Eng fish commercial operations than with great interests of humanity" He says the entente scorns Wilson and the help of the United States has not been regarded as essential in the ar engagement of terms showing that brute force is not to be displaced by noblest idealistic aspirations. The indictment of the former Kaiser is monstrous, in his opinion.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-Con- gressman Rogers of Lowell, in a letter to Secretary Glass, asks the Treasury Department to recommend legislation to prevent the deprecia- tion of Liberty Bonds in the mar ket. He asks if the Government could wisely establish a fund to make up the difference between the market value and par. Or could legislation properly be passed which would make so much more attrac- life the bonds now selling for well below par, that a rise to approxi- mately their par value would re- suit.

SPECIAL SESSION
OF SCHOOL BOARD


The board of education was in spe-
cial session with the contractors for
the Washington and the Mckinley
schools on Tuesday evening with a
view of having sowe definite under
Lstanding as to just when the schools
would be ready for the use of the de-
partment. Engineer Kayle who made
a careful check up Of the condition of
the new buildings for the board gave
it as his opinion that with the most
favorable conditions the Washington
school could not be completed until the
middle of March or the first of April
and that with delays as are prett !
certain to come that there was little
reason to expect the completion of the
building before the end Of next sem
ester Of the schools. After the meet
ing was over the board formally adj
vised the superintendent to take no
steps for the employment of teachers
for the school until the opening Of the
regular school year in September next.
1t was declared by President Glerum
of the board this morning that the real
cause of the delay in the Washington
school has been the failure to secure
deliveries of face brick. He declared
that the other features of the building
are proceeding according to schedule
and that if the face brick had been
secured that the building might have
been completed in the early spring.
Engineer Kayle declared that the city
was getting an excellent job of work
on the building.
The board decided that the work on
the Mckinley school should go forward
without any delay and that the build
ing would be rushed to completion Just
as rapidly as possible. 1t is thought
that it will be ready for use by. Febru-
airy of 1921 if not before that time.
After conference with the princi-
pals of the various schools on Thursday
the board voted to issue formal order
eliminating all night activities of the
school plants with the exception of the
night schools and the entertainment to
be given for the junior Red Cross for
which tic4ets have already been sold.
The order closes down for the period
OF the coal shortage all social center
and athletic activities Of all the schools.
just as soon as the coal situation will
permit the ban on such sessions will
be lifted.
