King Albert Tells Council Of
Four That Time of Promises
Has Passed
LIFE OF COUNTRY
is AT STAKE
Council Must Act, Says Ruler.
Immediate Advance of Ten
Million Francs Wanted.

Paris. April i (By the Associated
Press)-Relgium's case has been lald
before the peace conference by the
most distinguished advocate Belgium
could have chosen. King Albert has
been in Paris for the past three days
and in numerous conferences with the
representatives Of the great powers
he has outlined the needs OF his
country and told of the steps that
must be taken Immediately II Bel
g;um is to be restored.
King Albert has had long conver-
sations with President Wilson, Col.
Edward Nj. House, Premier Clemen-
ceau and David Lloyd George. These
conversations led up to his appear
ance before the council Of four to-
day.
A member Of the Belgian peace
delegation told the Associated Pre-.
today that, shorn of all its diplomat
ic niceties what King Albert told
the council might be summarized
thus:
The. time of promises has passed.
If Belgium is to live the council
must act
The Associated Press is able to
state that three questions of vital i'm
mediate Importance to the reestab-
lishment of Belgium financially, eco
nomically and politically, were dis
cussed. The first question was the
immediate advance to Belgium OF
about 100000 francs, the sec
ond, the expectation TO Belgium from
England and the United States of raw
materials, and the third. the cession
to Belgium of the left b. k Of the
Scheldt River and the Lemperg Pen
;nsula.
The first item represents the value
Of German marks left in circulation
in Belgium. After the departure Of
the Germans tie ministry Of finance
sent out an urgent call to holders of
the marks to deposit them in the
banks. The amount was estimated
to be about 1000, 100000, and it had
been the governments intention to
redeem them at the par value Of on
franc 25 centimes. Belgium was
not prepared for the avalanche Of
marks that resulted. Eight billion
marks passed through the bank win
dows into the vaults. The banks were
unable TO redeem this amount Of pa
per and depositors were merely
given receipts, stating that a certain
amount CT marks We're held to cir
credit until such time as financ i
could be made to rei1i.
burSe them.
The payment of an immediate in !
demnity by Germany was relied upon
to enable repayment for these de-
posts. The indemnity thus far has
failed to nlaterialize. Depositors
can not draw against these credits.
With the result that some O,000,-
900 Of francs are idle. as the banks |!
are paying no interest on such de- !
posits
The importation Of raw materials is :
said to be Indispensable to retrieving |
Of Belgium from the economic stand
point
The correspondent has just return
ed from an extended trip in Bel
siun1. Everywhere he found manu-
facturers complaining Of the situa
ion arising from the fact that while
he Americans and British permit
expectation into Belgium Of manu-
articles they thus far have
allied to export articles which would =
permit of industries resuming work.

Under a proclamation issued by
Gov. Roberts the voters of Maury and
other counties of Tennessee are call
ed to assemble at the court house on
the first Monday in April to express
their wishes on the proposed issuance
Of fifty millions of dollars of road
building bonds. Heretofore the voters
Of Maury county have met and unani-
mously instructed the members from
this county in the legislature to vote
against this and all other proposed
state bond issues, hut under the proc
lamation Of the governor another
meeting must be held in order that the
will of the county will be registered.
1t is expected that there will be
large attendance at the meeting here
because much interest has been man
ifested in the bond issue and SO far
. as can be ascertained there has been
no change of sentiment since the mass
convention was held this month. The
meeting will be held at the circuit
court room in order that every one can
be accommodated
Advocates of the bond issue have
opened headquarters at Nashville and
are flooding the state with literature
and propaganda and it is announced
that a number OF speakers will be sent
out to the various county meetings
to assist in putting through resolu-
tions favoring the bond issue. Should
one of these speakers come to Maury
county he is sure to be answered.

TENNESSEE DIRECTOR OF u. S.
EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
SOUNDS WARNING.

Reports received by DR.. j. T. Ware,
federal director, for the week ending
March %, the last week of the gov
ernment's free employment bureau in
~ Tennessee cities, show that 6S per
cent of the 1,493 persons who applied
for jobs in this state were placed in
suitable employment.
With the close of the week covered
by the report, it was necessary to close
all government employment bureaus
except in Memphis and Nashville as
result of failure of congress to pro-
vide funds. In several cities in which
offices were ordered closed employ
ers arranged to provide funds for the
operation and the bureaus until con-
gress meets.
During the last week 1888 persons,
including male civilians, women and
returned soldiers, sailors and marines,
applied for 1881 jobs offered; 1857
were examined and referred to en-
ployers, and 1,024 are known to have
been placed in industrial occupations.
Placements were as follows: Male
civilians, II per cent; women, 5a per
cent, and soldiers 64 per cent
Nashville reported the highest per
centage of placements of male civil
ians and soldiers and Memphis led in
placing women Memphis also report
ed the heaviest registration in all
branches.
Tennessee employers are urged to
prepare Immediately for the return OF

diers who will come home with the

be demobilized about the last of April.
