AUSTRIAN TREATY TAKING SHAPE

PARIS, May 10.-None of the
nations seem entirely satisfied
with the terms of the peace
treaty framed by the Allies
handed to the German plenipo-
tentiaries this week. All are
registering decided objections to
both the spiI;t of the instru-
ment, but it believed by those
having it's adoption most at
heart, that after the objectors

ventilate their objections they
will see futility of continuing
thetir opposition, and will all
consent to sign, after submit
tin, probably, amendments they
would like, but cannot have.
German newspapers and pub
lie men in public utterances
continue to bemoan what they
assert means extinction to Ger
many. China balks at the ad-
vantage given Japan in the
Shantung matter; B Belgiu m
thinks the terms inflicted upon
Germany are not sufficiently
hard.
But the treaty as drawn is
really a compromise, and it gives
common ground upon which eX-
the spirit of the instru-
fident belief of the Allies that
after the various plenipoten-
tiaries have had "their day in
court" they will accept the
terms laid down by the victors,
and endeavor to hasten compile
ton of the work.
The work of framing up the
treaty is complicated,
conflicting interests make it
very difficult. Italy insists upon

the utterances of anti-war news
papers as to be given no atten-

WASHINGTON, May 10.

WASHINGTON, May 10. =
Incomplete returns from all
parts of the country indicate
that the Victory Loan, or Fifth
Liberty Loan, has been fully
subscribed, or "Gone Over the
Top" Until detailed reports
from all parts of the country are
in and compiled, the total
amount of subscriptions cannot
be stated definitely, but there is
no doubt that the loan is over
subscribed.
All districtst have forwarded
the most cheering reports. Even
tthe Dallas district, which had
laggad behind, rallied at the
close and came in with a good
showing.
Oregon was the first State to
fill it's quota and go over the
top, followed closely by Wash
|ington.
Unrepolted subscriptions yet
to come will doubtless swell the
total far above the figures
tavailable at presen.
Many new and novel feaures
have been adopted and put into
practice to increase interest and
arouse enthusiasm for the loan;
Allplanes have made special
trips in all parts of the country,
the pilots aviators making
speeches urging subscriptions,
at their resting places; tanks di-
rect from the battlefelds of
France, manned by the men who
fought them, have visited many
cities, and they have been the
center of attraction everywhere,
the utmost enthusiasm,
and causing loosening Of
purse strings wherever they |
have appeared, and the destroy
er Calhoun, the Victory ship"
of the navy, made the voyage
from San Francisco to New
York, via Panama Canal, rec
ording subscriptions by the pro-
gress of the voyage, anchored /
off Sandy Hook at noon today.
At evening she steamed into the
harbor, passing along the river
fronts, received all along the
route by every demonstration

Whistles, firing Of salutes, etc.
AS soon as official figures can
be prepared and authenticated |
they will be promulgated.
This loan has been populariz-

it's predecessors: The payments
were made on a basis of small

home may be given leave to at
tend a French or British univer-
sity. Such men are organized
in detachments, with an officer
in command and a civilian di-
rector who acts as dean. Alrea-
dy, about ten thousand men
have availed themselves of this
opportunity, seven thousand of
whom are in French universe
ties. They are required to re-
main the three months of the
Spring term and receive commu-
tation of subsistence at the rate
of So a day and an allowance of
81 a day for lodging.
In addition to these four main
activities of the War Depart
ment's education campaign for
the soldiers, various additional
activities have been provided,
notably short-term agricultural
institutes at various places, lee
lures, addresses as well as cor
respondence courses.
Appreciated By Men
The men have been quick to
appreciate these opportunities
to benefit themselves in an edu-
cational way, demonstrated not
only by the heavy enrolment
but by the spirit of contenment
among the men, who realize that.
at the same time that they are
patriotically serving their coun-
try they are preparing them
selves to cope with peace-time
problems when they return
home. The spirit in which the
War Department has undertake
en- this vast educational pro-
gram for the men of the arny is
well expressed by the following
statement made in general or
ders, published February 13,
1919:
"This citizen army must re-
turn to the United States pre-
pared to take an active and in
telligent part in the future prog
ress of our country"
