Though Quota has Been Elk
ceeded, Campaign Con-
tinues to Garry On"

Though the East Grand Forks city
quota has gone over the top with
nearly o thirty per cent oversubscrip-
ton. the loan campaign will continue
until May 10, It was announced today
by Chairman 7. A. Sullivan. Through
a misunderstanding, local opinion was
current that the drive, having gained
It's quota, was completed.
This is not the case" said Chair
we have gained our object, and that
Y people experience a big degree Of
moral satisfaction in having accom-
plished such a big victory. But the
drive has not stopped, AMI it will not
stop until Saturday, May 10. There
are a few who have not yet responded
in subscribing to the loan, and every
opportunity will be given to every n
who has not yet applied for a bond.
Several remain who have not yet met
their apportionment, and we are hop
they have not met an honorable COM
mitment, until they have come
through with a proportionate subscrip-
ton. Some of these people are more
able to pay than those who. have not
oply met their entire apportionment,
but have exceeded it,"
No change for the better is an
nounced in the township campaign.
though it is hoped that the temporary
halt in field work because of today's
rain may result in giving the drive
some incentive
Our duty to our boys over there is
not ended until we get behind them
with funds to get them home. They
finished their job. we must finish
ours" said Chairman N. ]. Nelson to-
day. Our district had no slackers
while the war was on, and there is no
occasion for having them now. Our
farmers have a guaranteed price on
wheat that in its effect on other prod
ucts is practically a guarantee on
everything. They have one Of tho
river valley ahead of them, and it
would be a reflection not only on our
future prospects but on our people If
we fail to meet these uuotas.n

full stop today with the heavy rain
which fell during the early hours Of
the morning and at intermittent in
tervals throughout the day. Cloudy
weather, with occasional skifts of

While not needed, a little rain at
this time does no particular harm, ac-
cording to local farmers, beyond oc-
%casioning a temporary delay in COM
plotting spring work.
Approximately 60 per cent Of spring
seeding is completed. An unusual
amount of moisture is stored in the
'subsoil reservoir, and every indication
points to a crop above the normal.
During the mild and balmy weather
of the past week wonders have been
accomplished in the field, and unusual
car in this seasons soil and seeding

Plan Not Approved.

Paris. Friday. May 2.-Authorita-
tive disapproval of a plan that has
been advanced for the rehabilitation
Of European financial credit was ex-
pressed today by the financial mem
bers of the American delegation. 1t
was made known definitely that the
United States would not be a party to
any joint action having for its pur-
pose the restoration of German bust
ness. n-s -ts
1t had been proposed by the British
hat a German bond issue Of five bi.a
lion dollars be arranged with Great
Britain, France, the United States and
the other Allied and associated pow
ers as guarantors. The American del
egates took the position that such a
plan would be not only Impractical
BILE but contrary to American pre-
cedent.
1t was explained that the British
proposal included the apportionment
OF the issue among all the powers
even among the small newly created
governments. The apportionment
was to be based on the relative wealth
Of the signatories.
One objection raised was that the
failure of any one Of the guarantors
to bear its share would result in in
screasinE the burden and responsibility
OF the others, thus creating a situa.
ton obviously unjust.
