URGES WIDESPREAD
 DISTRIBUTION OF THE VICTORY LOAN
Best Way toCurbB bBolshevism Is for People to Have Ma terials Interest in Gov
 ernment, Says Glass
By Associated Press

New York, April Widespread distribution of the fifth and final Lib erty Loan-the $4,5OO,O0O, 900 "Victory Loar"-as an antidote to bolsheviSm was urged by Carter Glass, Secretary of the Treasury, in an address here tonight before 1000 loan campaignerS of the New York federal reserve dis trict.
 You want to give it widespread dis tribution," he said, because in my be- lief he surest way to shoot down bol- shevism is to let the people of this country have a material interest in the government You want to do it in or der to inculcate the lesson of saving and of thrift"
 An additional reason for absorption of the loan by the people rather than by the banks, Secretary Glass said, was that the greater amount of the loan the banks were called upon to f- nance. the more would their ability be impaired to meet the demands for capi- tai for commerce and industry.
 we should not hesitate moment" he declared we should go forward at once. Just as our American boys illustrated the heroism and valor of this nation upon the battlefield, so American business men and business women should illustrate the patriotism of peace in a different way and will do it.
 "We call this a Victory Loan" he continued and it is that. But l think it might as well have been called thanksgiving loan. l am appealing to my fellow countrymen to give thanks to God that the war was, through the valol and spirit of our American na- ton, kept 5000 miles away"
 Secretary Glass then took up the fTe- quently heard statement that it would be impossible to float another loan.
 OSSIBLE-NEVER
 They said that it was impossible for this country to organize an army that would be deciding or even help full factor in the great European strug gle" he said, "and yet you know, and William Hohenzollern knows that the United States did organize an army that helped drive the mad monarch in- to exile and restore the peace of the world.
 "When we had organized the array they said it was impossible to trans port it across the seas in time to be of service and I sat in the halls of Congress and heard a discerning and distinguished statesman bitterly deride the American Secretary of War for suggesting that within given period

 It is mostly stomach trouble th;i is making this a place full Of SICK neople-stomach trouble, it's complica- tions and the many forms of kidney, liver, blood and bowel disorders that come mostly from stomach trouble.

COLONIAL THEATRE SHOWS
 BRYANT WASHBURN TO-DAY

Something to De- playing today at the Colonial, features Bryant Washburn, who with the Imaginable situations and re- marks brought out, is the main attraction of the picture.
 The camera work and the effects of the lights, in fact, of the work connected with photographing the film, are good. The story is simple one of very wealthy man, afflicted with laziness and with nothing to do." H$ finds his valet acting as a member of the nobility, and flor something to do' goes in his serv- ants place in search of a girl whose pie ture the valet had. Unusual and some- what unlikely situations follow, but the hero finally, through service, wins favor in the sight of the girl.
 The acting of Washburh is much more satisfactory than is the trend of the story. He is well up to par. and is supported efficiently. Interest laggs for a short while during but little real activity, but that is forgotten when the humor of sub sequent situations forces pne to laugh
 A short comedy also is on the pro gramme.

The Long-Suffering Public


 The Ire are three parties interested in l every strike-employer. employe and the public-and the most important of these l is the public. It represents the greatest number and the most varied interests. The Seattle strike, which the good citi- | zens, with the help of a mayor true to his oath of office, blocked, so that, in his own words. it never got to first base,' was a blow at the public. Had it succeeded. had lighting and transpor- ta tion plants been forced to suspend, had the city's food supplies been cut off and every essential-jndustry in Seattle been paralyzed, the strikers would have suf- fered, but the greatest sufferers would have been the innocent public
 Having nothing to do with the causes in dispute, the public is made the chief victim in the attempt at settlement by means of strike Public officials are awakening to the necessity of protect ing the community against reigns of ter TOT in the industrial world. Bonar Law, speaking in the British House of Com mons, declared it was the duty of the
 government ito defend the community
 against strikes directed against the com
 munity." Premier Lloyd George, return
 ing from Paris to face an epidemic of
 strikes throughout the United Kingdom, Atook d bold stand against all labor ex- tremists and declared the government was
 determined to fight Prussianism in the
 industrial world exactly as we fought it or the continent of Europe
 The complaint is made in Great Britain
 that strikes are started by leaders who do not faily poll the workers. So labor leaders get their way without the backing of the rank and file. The same thing was true here in the strike of the Butte cop per m iners. the radicals having packed the meeting at which the strike was called After nine days the same ele- rent prevailed and repudiated the strike.
 Pfis jdstifies the necessity of the reform
 we have frequently advocated--a secret s,trike ballot under the control of public officials What legislor has the courage to propose it?
