TYPHUS THREATENS
 NEW POLISH NATION

Ten thousand persons in Poland are dying every week of typhus, accord ing to an estimate made by the Ameri- can Red Cross Mission on field reports just completed. Unless the barest ne cessities such as isolation, soap and clean underwear are provided without delay. says a late cablegram, cholera and dysentery will surely follow with warm weather, and before another winter, whole villages will be deci- mated. Typhus and other diseases are especially severe in the Dobrowa coal mining region, where the death rate has jumped from 32 per 1000 in 1913 to 150 today. Only 20 percent of the population of this region is free from tuberculosis.
 Of the situation Professor Vernon Kellogg, member of the United States Food Administration, said:
 Tt will take year to put Poland on her feet. There are at least 5,000,000 people scattered over 10000 square miles, who are worse off than were the Belgians, because they have been with out any help whatsoever for four years. They are absolutely dependent on the allies for food, clothing, hospital sup plies and medicines. and I believe the allies have no more important duty than to hasten all available assistance. We have shipped in 90,000 tons of food stuffs, but that is not enough. We mus. send in that quantity every month"

SANDSTORMERS BAND
 O|V HAND AT CIRCUS

Everyone of the thousands of Phoe- nix citizens who attended the Salma- gundi Circus last year is hailing with delight the announcement that the cir GUS is back again this year, bigger and better than ever. Most of all is the news. most welcome, that the Sand stormer family has been prevailed upon to be present again. The Sandstorm- CTS endeared themselves to the general public in a way that proves conclusive ly that each Sandstor1ner is possessed of 8 personality almost magnetic.
 Ma and pa Sandstormer are of that stern and sturdy stuff that has pro duced the pioneer wealth of our coun- try. Gwendoline, sweetly feminine and naturally retiring is one of the charming daughters; Melissy, educated at great expense and effort, is the in tellectual and social flower of the family. being possessed of a proud na- ture and highly dramatic temperament. The twins, Josephus and Bohunkus, are not so alike that the public is con- stantly confused as to their identity, after the fashion of ordinary twins, but each has very distinctive per sonality and each is accomplished in most original ways.
 Two sons who last year were in the service of their country, will be in at tendance at the circus this year and will help materially in the band per formance which the Sandstormers arc to furnish as their contribution to the enjoyment of the evening. The Sand stormers, like every really perfect pro duction. are of Arizona origin, hailing originally from that metropolis of Ari- zona known as Egypt. Friday and Saturday night, May 16 and IT, is the time to meet them and the place is the Salmagundi Circus. held at the Y. W. C. A. boarding home grounds.

fore, and women who never prayed before, prayed then.
 They did just what We asked them to. They signed the death warrant of the tyrant who was possessed of the idea that he held a quit claim deed to the ownership of all other nations, and whose roll of crimes is written in blood. The vices which demoraliZed- the barrenness which lays waste, are all his work. The cries of the widow and orphan mark his footprints. What havoc he had wrought to his own un- happy race which was writhing under is grinding heel, we know not. Into the secrets of those once happy homes, We cannot penetrate. Over that bridge of signs we may not pass. But how thankful we are that he could not desc crate our beloved country.
 In fields where poppies toss their scarlet heads above the blackened graves, stand the women of France, alone. In America, most of the women are stretching forth their hands to the sea which is bringing their loved ones home.
 My favorite brother will not return. But he did his bit,-snot mine. We said, "Give US victory, no matter the pain or cost" Will the people of America help pay the price? Our reputation before the world is at stake Q, may this great Victory campaign bind us all together, with patriotism and love-a love for one country and the flag-the flag of liberty, never lowered to a foe. When the setting sun lights up the golden stars in the ice bound regions of Alaska, the rising sun salutes it off the rock bound coast of Maine. And may the stars and stripes, and the flags of other nations never clash again in mortal strife, but together, floating over millions of the same blood, be the means of keeping peace among the nations of the world for all time to come

Arrangements have been made to have large band give daily concerts in 8 specially constructed band stand on the beach and in other locations within the city limits. Special entertainment fea- lures are scheduled at various times during the season for the amusement and enjoyment, not only of the towns people. but all those who come from the outside.

Its beach is one of the most noted in California It enjoys the distinction of being the only large stretch of sand beach on the California coast facing the south, thus affording a shelter from the western trade winds.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW.
z

New York, Jan. Is. Various phases of the reconstruction era as- sumed more definite form this week, mainly in the curtailment or complete abandonment of operations.
 For example, reduction of output was reported from some of the prom inent steel and copper companies, while one of the leading railroads announced it's decision to forego new construction at an important terminal.
 The stock market reflected these conditions, when it did not anticipate them by irregular declines in the quoted values of many issues. What amounted to a general reaction oc- cured in some of the more vulnerable shares.
 Rails suffered from the additional restraints imposed by the proceed ings now before the Senate and the injection of labor difficulties this last problem also encompassing some of the more distinctive lines of industry
 The actual condition of clearing house banks and trust companies for the week shows that they hold $S6,- 638,550 reserve in excess of legal re- quirements. This is an increase o1 $602,820 from last week.

A NEWS SPIRIT IS BORN AMONG THE
 ClVLl|ZtD PEOPLE
''The Idea of Depressing the German People Win be Repugnant to Labor Parties and Humanitarians."


 Tokio, Jan. 16.-(Correspondence of The Associated Press. 1.-The war has revolutionized the ideas among civil ized peoples concerning international relations, declared Takashi Hara, Ja- pans new commoner Premier in a re- cent interview.
 "A new spirit seems to have been born among them," he said. "It seems tc me that this new spirit will in the future come to sway the minds of people. in all civilized countries and govern the relations between the na- tions." Speaking of peace, he said: "The idea of expressing the German people will be repugnant to the labor parties in England and France and also to the humanitarans in America classes of men whose sentiments their respective governments cannot ignore. Under these circumstances 1 am inclined to believe that com paritively moderate and fair opinions will prevail at the peace conference, with thesresult that the war will end in peace under which all the nations of the world can in the future live in safety and in harmony with one an- other. Nobody can deny that such is the peace needed for the true welfare of mankind"
 MT. Hara recalled incidents of the active sympathy American soldiers showed to the French peasants in the war zone whom they were ever will ing to help in the field whenever off duty, He told how American soldiers had spent. their money buying candy for French children and continued:
 "Such is the new spirit now binding the different peoples of the | world with increasing strength. This spr- 1t does not permit nations merely to seek their own selfish interests with out any regard to the interests of oth- CTS. Japan has sent her army to Siberia, and it is my ardent wish that the officers and men will always bear in mind that they are there to help the Russians and so conduct them selves as to be welcomed by the latter as deliverers. Good behavior is just as praiseworthy on the part of na- ton as on that of an individual. Look at Germany. She has followed the principle that a state is free to do anything however selfish or treach- erous, and the result is the tragic plight in which we now find her. Let T Us take warning from her exper- ience."
