GAVE TENTH OF
THE WAR LOANS
This State Took $2,7O9, 500
Worth of Bonds, Re-
ports Show

Philadelphia, Nov. 4. = Pennsyl-
vania raised more than 10 per cent
of the total amount of money SUBJ
scribed by the entire Nation for
the four Liberty and one Victory
Loans.
This fact is made public to-day by
the Pennsylvania War History Com
mission from material received
from both the Third Federal Re-
serve District, embracing Eastern
pennsylvania and Philadelphia, and
the Fourth Federal Reserve District,
which includes Pittsburgh and the
western and end of the State.
The exact per cent for Pennsyl-
vanla is .1121, which represents $2,-
109,947.S00 of the entire $24,O72,-
111,400 raised throughout the en-
tire United States in the five loans.
In addition, Pennsylvania's per
capita subscription to each loan, the
Commission learns, is far greater
than the per capita subscrip-
ton of the Nation. The individual
Pennsylvanian averaged about $50
worth of bonds more than the aver
age American on all five loans
Pennsylvania best record was in
the Fourth Loan where the per
capita subscription was $93.79
which was $26.31 better than the
per capita for the country. In that
loan also. 2,349,252 residents of the
State bought bonds, which repre-
sented subscriber among every FIVE

NORWAY TRADE
SHOWS INCREASE
Abundant Signs of Good Re-
lationship With United
States

Cllristiania, Nov. 4. - There are
abundant signs everywhere of the
development of broader commercial
relationships of every kind between
Norway. and the United States, ac-
cording to Marion Letcher, American
consul general. In a statement ccn-
corning the Norwegian-Americ
Exhibition here, Mr.. Letcher said:
Previous to 1914 our trade with
Norway was exceedingly light, but
now, Notwithstanding the long and
extensive haul American commodi-
ties are almost as common in Chris
tiania as in New York. A number
of Norway's enterprising young men
have gone to my country during the
last several months to study these
conditions at first hand and 20 form
connections there.
This exhibition, which is con-
fined practically to goods to be dis
played by Norwegian representatives
of American firms, will emphasize
the value of doing business through
direct Norwegian representation
rather than through distributing
agencies located in other countries,
and l am sincerely hopeful that
American business men will not fail
to see the force of this lesson.
up to the present the trade that
has sprung up between the two coun-
tries has been largely fortuitous.
American business men will be wise
to understand this and prepare for
more permanent relationship through
fixed local representatives"

gree murder after eight minutes de-
liberation by a circuit court jury.
Five others were found guilty of
a similar charge. after the jurymen
had been out seven minutes. The
verdict means electrocution for the
six negroes. In the first case, that
of Frank Hicks, witnesses testified
they saw Hicks fire the shots which
resulted in the death of Clinton Lee,
an ex-soldier of this city. The de-
fense had no witnesses. argument
was waived. the jury was instructed
and in eight minutes verdict was
returned.
Defendants in the second case
were Frank Moore, Ed. Hicks, ]. E.
Knox. Paul Hall and Ed. Coleman,
charged jointly with the murder of
Lee. Witnesses testified that Moore,
Knox and Hicks acted as leaders in
the incident.
Evidence heard showed the exist
ence of a post of the progressive
farmers and household union of
America" the organization under
which it is alleged the negroes were
banded for the uprising at Elaine,
18 miles south of Helena. which re-
suited in the death of five white per-
sons and a score of negroes.

SYRIANS MUST
BE INDEPENDENT
Nothing Less Will Satisfy
Them, According to Habib
Lotfallah Bey

London, Nov. 4. = Nothing less
than complete independence will
satisfy the aspirations of the people
of Syria, according to Habib Lot
fallah Bey, chief representative in
Europe of the Syrian Union Com
mittee. Lotfallah Bey has been con-
ferring in London with Prince Fai-
sal, son of the King OF the Hedjaz,
and with British officials regarding
the political future of his country,
He told the Associated Press he was
confident that the scheme his organi-
zation has drawn up for the union
of Palestine, Syria and Mesopotarnia
ultimately would be accepted by the
British and French governments as
the best solution of the vcxed Sy-
rian question.
Bey's Government Plan
Here is an outline of the plan for
a provisional government that Lotfal-
lah Bey is submitting to the British
and French authorities:
Appointment of governor general
by England, France and Arabia and
the formation of two legislative
houses, a chamber and senate,
whose members will be selected on a
democratic basis.
A new civil constitution to be de-
vised.
The provisional government to
call upon the League of Nations for
the help of socialists in organizing
national debt office. Each inter-
ested Allied nation to have n repre-
sentative in the department in
charge of the country's finances, in
order to safeguard their economic
rights in the. country.
The British, French and Arabian
armies of occupation to be with
drawn as soon as the national gov
ernment is established.
AS soon as the new government
is formally recognized, the question
of the need of assistance from some
power holding mandate from the
League of Nations to be examined
and determined"
The chamber and senate to deter
mine by vote whether the govern
ment should be monarchial or repub-
lican.
1--WE ask only" the protest states,
that the Allies adhere to their
promises to us and permit us to de-
eide for ourselves the future of our
country. We ask for complete in
dependence, without a mandate,
protection or supervision of any
kind"

scalp will not stimulate the hair
growth to the extent desired. BY
the new method just mentioned hair
can be forced to grow several inches
month. Hair will stop falling as If
by magic. The new vigor of the hair
will be quickly noticed, and all bald
spots will be soon entirely filled out
with new sprouts. This can all be
easily obtained by the simple use of
beta -quinol, which can be secured at
any drugstore in the original one
ounce package for 90 cents. This
can be easily mixed at home with a
half pint of bay rum and a half pint
of water. 1t contains no oil what

moving wrinkles is easy, very easy.
astonishingly easy. And it takes but
two or three minutes day and few
cents expense. That you can do it
surely and positively will be proven
to you alb solutely in your mirror in
few days. I dare say. nothing has
ever been known to produce such re-
suits as by the formula which 1 give
YOU here. From your druggist get
two ounces of eptol which will cost
SO cents, and mix with one table,
spoonful of glycerine in half pint
of water. Mix thoroughly. The
cream that results should be used
very lberally and every day. Quick
ly you will notice the little wrinkles,
deep wrinkles, crows feet and heavy
lines giving way before an ever in
creasing plumpness of the skin-and
years seem literally to be taken from
the face.

you can imagine to get rid of black
heads. They can be removed in a
few minutes-and II you doubt IL, just
get some powdered neroxin at the
drugstore for SO cents. sprinkle some

the blackheads. Then look in the
mirror and try to see them-you'll be
surprised.

Auburn and U. Of A.
 To Resume Relations

University, April 5.-(Special.) )-Intercol- legiats relations which have been severed for a number of years between the sister institutions of Auburn and the Univer sity of Alabama are on the eve of being resumed. The connecting link which may presage the greater relations of athletics in the future is to be a series of debates to be staged at a date to be announced in May. The subject suggested by Au- burn and which will likely be accepted by Alabama is: Resolved, that McAdoos $ plan for federal 'control of railroads should be extended five years" The se- ries of debates has been approved by Dr. Thach and Dr. Petri of Auburn and by pr. George H. Denny of the university.
 The idea of the debate originated with the Philomathic chapter of the Alpha Phi Epsilon literary society here which sent out challenges to 15 chapters of the soci- ety in southern colleges. The First chapter at Auburn accepted the challenge through it's president Later it was agreed to make the debates a college affair in stead of between the two different chap. ters. Robert Messer and J. W. John Srt pushing the debate at Alabama
 A national convention of the Alpha Phi Epsilon society will be held at Au- burn April 19 Roy Smart is president of the national society.

Best Country Fence

From the Thrift Magazine.
 Nothing adds more to the attractiveness and artistic charms of a country home than a beautiful hedge fence, which also IS protection to the lawn and garden. A low woven wire fence, with Dorothy Perkins roses, bitter sweet French honey suckle, or Japanese cletnatis planted three feet apart, will soon be a hedge of beauty
 But better than these for you do not need the wire fence) is a hedge of Japa- nese barberry It is absolutely hardy, a fast grower, makes a dense hedge, can be sheared to any desired shape, and is at tractive in any season while the others lose their ceauty in the fall.
 Do not confuse the Japanese barberry with the common barberry, against which there is a federal quarantine because it is understood to carry wheat rust. The Japanese barberry can be purchased of any nursery man, very cheaply. Small plants set out two feet apart make a thrift fence serving two purposes, protec- tion and ornamenta ton.

Col. Thomas c.

In a letter to pr. Thomas M. Owen, Colonel McCorvey has much praise for the work of the department of archives and history of which pr. owen is in charge. In part he says:
 "The thing that interested me most on my trip was not so much the plan of cele- brating the Tooth anniversary of Ala bama's statehood as seeing and apprecat- ing, as l never did before, what you have done to preserve the history of the past 100 years-and more in the marvellous col lection of sources of every description.
 You have done work which will live, I hope and believe, tor the enlightenment of all coming genera Ltions of Alabamians; and it should be placed beyond all pos sibility of damage oF destruction"
