Fords.
Under British capture, the first car
in Bagdad was a Ford.
The first car to cross the Persian
Mountains was q Ford.
The first car in the genuine Garden
of Eden was a Ford.
The first car in the H%olyland was
a Ford.
Lines If communication contained
Fords by the hundreds from Bagdad
to the Black Sea.
L nave seen the fOTuS uSeQ as
tanks, armored moving forts, electric
light plants, water pumps, ambu-
~lances, supply cars, and lots of other
things, and they were always ready
for anything at any time.
These statements are facts, as I
have served in action all through the
countries named. And / name the
Ford the best auto in the world. The

DELAY is FATAL TO BELGIUM,
KING ALBERT SAYS BEFORE

Huns Offer Land Route To Polish SOL
diers-Pensions To Be Included IN
Preparations BilI--Aspirations OF
Denmark Are Favored in Paris.

Paris.-The opinion was expressed
by responsible british authority that
the peace treaty would be ready to be
signed shortly.
Pensions to disabled soldiers and for
widows and orphans will be included
in the bill to Germany for reparation.
Peace conference leaders have decided
that such relief to individuals Tor
losses and sufferings during the war
will be a proper charge under the
armistice provisions. Reparation or
losses to the civilian population Will
constitute a considerable proportion or
the S5O,OOO,OOO, amount of the repara-
ton bill estimated approximately 1t
is understood the United States VIII
not lodge any claim under this head.
Paris.-Belgiumls case has been
placed before the peace conference by
the most distinguished advocate Bel
GUM could have chosen. King Albert
has been in Paris for the last three
DAYS, and in numerous conferences
with the representatives of the great
Powers has outlined needs of his coun-
try and told of the steps that must
be taken Immediately if Belgium is to
be restored. King Albert has had long
conversations with President Wilson,
Colonel Edward NJ House, Premiers
Clemenceau and David Lloyd George.
These conversations led to his appear
ance before the Council of Four
A member of the Belgian peace del
eeatiOn told the Associated Press that,
shorn of all it's diplomatic niceties,
what King Albert told the council
might be summarized thus: "The
time of promises has passed. Ii Bel
GUM is to live the council must act"
The Associated Press is able to state
that three questions of vital 1mmedl-
ate importance to the re-establish-
ment of Belgium, financially, ecOnom-
ically and politically, were discussed.
First question was the immediate ad'
vance to Belgium of about 10,00O0OO,-
600 francs, the second the eXporta-
ton to Belgium from England and the
United States of raw materials, ana
the third the cession to Belgium OF
the left bank of the rEscaut River and
the Lemberg Peninsula.
The first item represents the value
of German marks left in circulation in
Belgium. After the departure OF the
Germans the 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
2,OO0,0O0,O0O, and it had been the gov
ernment's intention to redeem them at
the par value of one franc to be %
