Large Distribution Planned.

Every effort will be made to give
the notes a large distribution rather
than have the banks absorb them.
that the full credit resources of the
banks may be available for the neces-
sites OF credit. Comment by the
review of the federal reserve board
for April on the necessity of public
participation in the loan is as follows:
Neglect on the part of the public
to appropriate and fully perform its
duty in taking and paying for the vic
tory note issue would have a very
prejudicial effect upon the banking
position by aggravating the state Of
expansion which already exists"
The victory liberty loan issue will

sues that, even partially, offered Op-
portunity to liquidate the expenses in
cident to it's own f1otation. Necessarily
the fiotation of the various loans has
been an expensive proposition. aside
from the engraving and printing work.
The advertising literature. bringing
soldiers from abroad, the posters, ex-
penSes of noted speakers in various
sections of the country. and the ac-
counting work of the various bureaus

One of the curious developments of
the peace conference is the manner
in which Lloyd George has advocated
the Wilson principles. Some of his
British brethren here say that the
prime minister has been converted to
idealism and out Wilson's Wilson in
insisting on the big four adhering to
the fundamental peace policies which
were outlined in the presidents Ia
points.-Paris dispatch.
Why is such development "curi-
ous"? The IA points were nearly all
embodied in Lloyd Georges speech
of January 5, 1918, delivered only
three days before President Wilson's
address to congress presenting the
same principles of "just and last
ing" peace. For some reason the
world proceeded to forget that the
British prime minister was as deeply
committed to the so-called Wilson
principles, barring the freedom of the
seas, as the president himself. If

Lenine and Trotzky have had

best to wipe out their opponents of

been the penalty for disagreeing,

TURKEY PASSES.

That the Turkish empire, in the role
of sovereign power has passed
seems to be clearly indicated in the
press dispatches from the Paris peace
conference. The land misgoverned
so long by Turkish officials is to be
handled under the direction of the
great powers and the unspeakable
Turk, with centuries of cruelty and
massacres and murders and oppres-
sions without number to mark his
reign will be no more.
= Students of that region assert that
the Turkish people, the peasants and
the like are fanatics when aroused
: BY their leaders but are comparative
ly easy to handle. 1t is notable
fact, however, that in fighting the
Turk, the British never used gas, be-
cause the Turk did not. In other
words, low as is the Turk in the esti-
nation of the world, guilty as he is
of atrocities he did not sink to the
level of the Huns in warfare.
But it is good for the world that
the Turk is to go. He represented
an evil in the world that was toler-
ated because of circumstances but
from there has come nothing to add
to the blessings of the world in the
way of lettering the condition of
mankind. The government was al
ways corrupt and the people always
oppressed and the land was an ever
source of danger to the world It's
rulers were either tyrants or weak
fngs controlled by the worst of adj
visers.
In the passing of the Turkish gov
eminent an evil sinkhole will go out
of existence. 1t is well.-W Wallace

AL Roberts, OWdrd Bout
NOW Appears To Be Unlikely

The chances OF Al Roberts. the sen
eationai hard-hitting Staten Island
heavyweight, meeting Johnny Howard,
the Bayonne fighting cop, seem very
slight just at present Silvy Gardella,
manager Of Roberts. has written a
letter to the sporting editor of the
NEWS In which he states that all ef-
forts to match Roberts and Howard
have failed as Willie Reilly, Towards
manager. insists that Roberts make
weight-170 pounds ringside-and
this Riberts' manager will not stand
for.
According to Gardella, Reilly APP
preached him h night Roberts
fought Johnny Saxon and said How
ard would be willing to meet the
Staten Island cyclone. This was be-
fore the bout however as Reilly later
told Gardella that a two hand heavy
puncher, such as Roberts, would be
too dangerous for Howard IL Roberts
did not make weight Howard
weighs 165 pounds and Roberts pres
ent weight is IT'S although the Is
lander weighed 179 in the bout with
Saxon.
Gardella's letter, stating his ef-
forts in trying to book the two scrap
pers, follows:
Sporting Editor:
At the Lotus A.. G. of Perth Amboy
last Wednesday night before the Rob-
erts-Saxon bout, Willie Reilly mana
ger of Johnny Howard light-heavy-
weight of Bayonne, came to me and
asked me IL / would consent to a
match between Roberts and Howard
and I assured him / would. Reilly
then asked me to meet him at the Bay
onne A. A Boxing club. in order to ar
range the match.
On last Friday night Al Roberts,
Ted Burns (Roberts sparring part
ner) and myself journeyed over to
the Bayonne Boxing. Club, and met
John Flood. the popular matchmak-
er of the above named club and who
was very anxious to arrange the
bout.
Flood and myself looked around to
find Willie Reilly who was in the club.
Flood asked Reilly IL he vas ready to
sign the articles nor Howard to box
Roberts at the next show.
Reilly said: mo, Roberts Is to heavy
to box Howard" / hen said, why
do you think Roberts Is too heavy
when Howard has boxed all the lead
ing light heavy-weights, men as Bat
Ting Levinsky whom he fought lately
and also fought Johnny Saxon twice
who is as heavy as Roberts"
Reilly said: II know, but e Is
a two hand heavy puncher, l know
1T because / wa in Saxons corner
last Wednesday night and any man
that can hit as hard as Roberts is
dangerous for any one to box but If
you will put up a forfeit FOR Roberts to
iuake ITO pounds ringside 1 will con-
sent to the match"
] told Reilly that I would not let
Roberts make an ounce for anyone as
Roberts was only a boy and is still
growing and I, having experience,
know IT would weaken him.
Howard weighs 165 pounds and
Roberts present weight is IT'S pounds.
Roberts weighed 179 pounds with al
his boxing toys on in his last bout.
John Flood and / talked n talked
with Reilly to sign the articles for the
boat but Reilly absolutely refused to
let Howard box Roberts unless Rob-
erts made weight
1t was a great disappointment to
