NO OUTWARD
SIGN OF WAR
@ y;
Crops Excellent, Abundance Of

ton Good. .
(Bv The Associated Press.) :.

Sofia: Oct. 5.-Bu1garia gives now
no outward sign Of q country having
been at war. A large part of the
army has been demobilized, CONNER
ciaI activity has been resumed, the
crops are excellent, there is. ar album
dance of food in the country, the
health of the population is good, and
everybody is devoting himself to the
active pursuits Of peace.
The war has become only a MEM
DRY in the minds of the thrifty and
philosophical Bulgarian peasants, who
are so absorbed in their agricultural
and household pursuits that they.
have little time to think of the past:
But, all eyes are naturally turned to
Paris; where the destinies Of Bulgar-
ia are being weighed. The attitude
Of mind Of the people might be des-
cribed as one of "hoping for the best
but expecting the worst"
Bulgaria suffered no property dam
age by hostile. invasion or lombard
mentnx and. lost .cGoMpAratfttely few lives
by w6linlds or id~is6ase.s;N may be
many years, however, before Bulgar-
ia regains her former financial posi-
ton. The war cost her more than
81, 200, 100000. If she is required to
pay the Allies the indemnity Of $780,
000, 900. and is called upon to return
the billion dollars she borrowed from
Germany, her financial position will
be the more serious. Her present war
liabilities total more than half her
national wealth. 81
The Italians, whose friendship the
Bulgarians have been assiduously cul-
tivating have sent large quantities of
goods into the country. The French
have likewise sent a considerable am
cunt. The British have an economic
mission here, but little merchandise
has come into Bulgaria from Eng
land.
The Bulgarian government and PEG
i pie: are extremely anxious the Uni
ted States should: establish active
trade relations with them. There is
Egfe4t need Of farm implements, ma
chinery, fabrics, and manufactured
PARTICLES of all kinds. The United

TO Our Customers and The
Public In General
Are You Buying Blue Sky Cooperation Stock?

You say you know; that you do not believe you are. Isn't
it right to you and your family that you should know? Does
your money come SO easy these days that you can afford to buy
"stock" sold by the "sauve tongue" Of some Smooth" stock sales
man, giving anuing promise of big returns and you make no in
yeshgation to be sure of the purposes for which the new COM
pany is started; the kind Of men behind it.; the amount allowed
for promoting such company; or the amount of commission you
donate to the "smoth" salesman for permitting you to be among
"the few people of influence" who are, being 'let in on the wonder
full new enterprise ?" ~
3 ~ <. -. o.
So much sorrow, regret and financial loss, and even ruin, has
come from investing in some new scheme or unknown companies
that you should be on your guard. These particular times require
every vigilence in avoiding investing in some anegitmate and
"wld cat" proposition. ~ ~
Your bank s always at your service to assist you in finding
proper Investments. Do not hand over to some stranger your
money or Liberty Bonds for which you have worked hard to save
or to pay for without knowing that you are going to get real
value and a safe and paying investment in return. %
If you do buy any stock be sure and make your check or note =
payable direct to the Company and not to the order of the man
who is soliciting the, investment. -" 81 * +-

The Problem of Russia



Committee of the Union League Club OF
Chicago.l
Russia. that great enigma of the
war. likewise presents probably the
greatest of the peace problems.
Is the Russian experiment In self
government q failure? Have the ac-
lions of the Russian people proven
that the principle of self-determina-
ton cannot safely be applied? Should
Russia be coerced or helped back into
n position where she can again become
one of the greatest in the family of
nations. or should she be split up Into
numerous independent states?
All of these are questions which,
considering the insufficient informa-
ton ut hand on which to base our con-
illusions. permit of wide differences Of
opinion. But one thing is certain.
RUSSIA MUST NOT REMAIN IN
DER THE CONTROL OF GERMANY
IN A POLITICAL. MILITARY OR
ECONOMIC SENSE.
Germans Strong In Russia.
The word remain is used advised
ly. The greater part OF Russia was,
at the time the war came to its dra-
matte close, under the heel of Ger
many. Whole districts. such rs Fin
land. the Baltic provinces. ltusslan
Poland and the Ukraine were under d.
rect German control. German and
Austrian prisoners of war We're fight
ing against the allies and the Czecho-
Slovaks in Siberia.
The armistice terms which the Ger
mans were forced to sign provided
that the treaty of Brest- Lltoysk and
the supplementary treaties by which
Russia was despoiled should be abro-
gated. They likewise originally pro-
vided that all invaded territory on the
east front as well as that on the west
should be evacuated within "A days.
This was the first provision of the
armistice terms Mt which the Ger
man delegates protested. They asked
for more time and they got IT, The
armisfice as finally signed provided
that the east front territory should be
evacuation at some indefinite time to
be decided on later by the allies.
Want to Keep Control.
The Significance or this may be
merely that the disorder In Russia was
50 great that the allies thought Ger
man control for a time was better than
none. Again it Is posslble-even
highly probable-that the German del
esates hoped by this means to let Ger
man occupation drag on into the Pc
riod of peace negotiations. thinking
thereby to retain something of what
they have gained from Russia.
knowing as we do that Germany
must depend upon outside territory
for raw materials and markets for her
manufactured wares we may well look
with suspicion on delay in the evseua-
tien Of the Russian provinces. II they
need policing the allies should pro-
ceed to police them. at the earliest pos
sible monent-and police them with
out any German assistance.
What the Germans Held.
In the summer Of 1918 when the
German armies were laundering on
toward Paris and the kaiser and his
Austrian ally were counting on speedy
victory. the portions Of the former
Russian empire which had come under
direct Teutonic control. with their
area and populations. were:
