The AbbeaIing Terms
OF the Vict0ry Loan
U THATEVER the amount or the terms OF
~ the fifth, and last, Liberty Loan
nioht have heen Atlanta and the

Nv whatever the amount or the terms OF
w the fifth, and last, Liberty Loan
might have been, Atlanta and the
Sixth district could have been counted upon
to raise their quotas with an enthusiasm
worthy of the patriotic cause at stake But
with the amount so much less than was COM
monty anticipated and the terms so exception
ally advantageous from the investors point
of view, both the city and it's entire Federal
Reserve region may be expected to subscribe,
or oversubscribe, their aIlotments early in
the campaign.
The interest rate Of four and three-quarters
per cent, together with the liberal tax ex-
emptions on the four-year treasury notes
which are to be issued will appeal to the
Scotch canniness of all who have acquired or
perfected the savings habit under the keen
teaching of war times. AS further induce
ment these notes will be convertible, if the
holders wish into three and three-quarter per
cent securities which will be free from taxa
ton of every character save that on in
heritances and estates. Thus the issue will
offer exceptional opportunities to small and
large investors alike, and probably will prove
to be one OF the most remarkable of all the
loans in the number of subscribers it attracts
But there is another and even keener in
centive than these terms appealing as they
are to enlightened celf-interest 1t is the
loyal citizens consciousness that this last of
the Governments war loans is in no wise
less important than was the first-no less of
national necessity, no less of a debt Of honor.
If we cheerfully raised many billions of money
to send American boys to fight on distant
battlefelds, assuredly will we raise a few
billions more to bring them safely home and
to pay our little part of a debt which thou
sands of them paid with their blood and with
their very lives If we cheerfully subscribed
to four huge bond issues for work of destruc
ton, assuredly we will support this final one
which is to rehabilitate and heal The tasks
of winding up a war are no less imperative
than those of launching a war, and no less
solemnly commanding in their entitlement to
every patriots support. That Atlanta and
her sister communities throughout the Sixth
district will do all that is expected of them
is a conclusion foregone. But the sooner
their quotas are subscribed, the greater will
be the glory. Let every city and county,
therefore, be ready on April II to start the
campaign at full speed and press it swiftly
to contamination.

The Amended League Plan.

n row that the plan of the League of Ma
ticns has been modified to meet the
counsels of constructive criticism,
what will be the attitude of those erstwhile
compliments who argued that it was not the
League idea itself which they opposed but
simply the form in which the Paris conference
had cast it? 1t is hard to see how in sim
certify, they can longer withhold approval.
The revised covenant is definitely reassur-
ing on the points that gave anxiety. 1t accOrds
explicit recognition to the Monroe Doctrine
1t distinctly recognizes the right of a sigma
; tory nation to withdraw within a certain
period. 1t rejects a proposed Japanese
amendment which involved unfortunate
racial questions. These should be termed re-
statements rather than alterations because
for the most part, they were essentially i'm
piled in the first draft of the League cove
nant. The Monroe Doctrine, though not af-
firmed with particular reference to the west
ern hemisphere, was given worldwide appli-
cation. The right Of a member Of the asso-
ciated nations to withdraw, though not stipu-
lated in the first instance, was necessarily i'm
piled in the common sense of the matter for
it would not ne practically possible to hold
together a League of constrained and dis
satisfied members. AS for the rejected
japanese amendment, no one, we assume,
ever seriously considered it's having shadow
of chance of Incorporation
These restatements and stipu1ations, how
ever, should serve to disarm objections in
good faith to the United States entering the
League or, if there be further approximations
which are in any wise valid, they also no
doubt can re relieved. Thus will the sincere
element of that minority which has opposed
the League be satisfied. AS for the others,
it would be bootleEs to argue with the
fog or seek to persuade the wind.

NEW RoAD BUILDING PROGRAM
Amount of Money Available for Fed
eral Aid Largest Ever Set Aside
by Any Nation.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF AgTiculture)

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agricultural
With full state cooperation accord
ing to the terms of the federal aid
road act, the United States will have
Il total of at least $574, 100000 for CO.
operative road building during the next
three years. The federal part of this
fund is assured by an extra appropria-
ton of S209,000,000 in the post Office
appropriation bill just passed by con-
gress and signed by the president.
Officials of the bureau of public
roads United States department of ag-
rlculture, which administers the pro-
visions of the federal afu road act
and co-operates with the state govern
mants in the expenditure of the money,
point out that this amount of funds is
the largest ever appropriated for SINH
lar purposes and for similar period
by any government in the history OF
the world, and that 1t enables the fed
eral and state governments to carry,
out bodybuilding program of a mag
nitude never equaled.
Ip connection with the great federal
aid program it Is also noted that ex-
penditures for highway work in the
United States this year are likely to
amount to half billion dollars or
more On reports received from state
highway departments, the bureau of
public roads estimates the 1919 ex-
penditures for roads and bridges at
$685., 900 900, or $110,000,000 more than
the average expenditures for 1916 and
1917.
An important effect of the law con-
tanning the new appropriation Is that
1T broadens the definition of rural
post road, under which class high
way had to qualify in order TO receive
the benefits of the federal aid act.
Under the old act it was required
that mail should actually be carried
on the road or that there should be
reasonable prospect that mail would be
carried on it within short time after
Improvement. The new act says:
g. the term rural post roads =
s. shall be construed to mean any

Suits Worn by War Workers VIII
Be Given to PennileSs Stu
dents in Switzerland.

Official uniforms of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association minus
The Blue Triangle, the Association In
Sgnia, will be worn next winter by
women students who have been strand-
ed in Switzerland during the war and
who, because of lack Of funds, inabili-
~ to re-enter their native country,
desire to finish their university courses
or because they have no family to
which TO return, will remain there next
year
Elizabeth M. Clark, who has been In
Switzerland for ten years under the
WorIi Student Christian Federation,
has appealed to the National Student
Committee Of the Y. W. G. A. for cloth
ing for the 300 foreign women stu
dents in Switzerland. The scarcity OF
elo1hing last year among these almost
refugee students made it necessary for
two girls to share one coat So that
only one could go to classes or go out
OF doors at time.
Four large packing cases of all
kinds of used clothing, save hats,
which is in good condition, have been
collected hastily from women college
students In the New England States,
Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania,
Maryland and Delaware by the Stu
dent Committee of the National Y. w.
C. A. to be sent over in response to
Miss Clark's appeal. This clothing will
be dyed, cleaned and made over in
Switzerland.
In addition to the clothing collected
from students In colleges nearest New
York case of uniforms, which have
been turned in by Y. w. c. A. secreta-
res who did war work. and the official
gray uniform listers Is being sent. As
uniforms are being turned In by war
workers they will be claimed by the
Student Committee, which will remove
the insignia and prepare the uniforms
so that they may be worn by these
women who have been forced by world
events to remain in Switzerland for
several years:

Last week we had an occasion t.

Last week we had an occasion to
make trip to Lewiston, Idaho, and
from there to Nezperce, distance
of so miles which was made by
auto A part of this trip was over
the north and south Highway which
is now Under construction and
which will in time be connected with
the Highway pa sing through Pay
cite County, and when completed,
trip to that part of the state
can be much easier and quicker
made by auto than by rail as one
is now compelled to go. 1t was GER
tainly gratifying to see the splendid
work being done and especially
under the adverse conditions which
the pdople there must face in
building good roads such they
are now constructing. Great hills
er to obtain the proper grades. Ora
vel must be hauled from consider
able distance; and in most places
in order to hard surface they are
crushing lava rock, but not with
standing these difficulties they are
building roads that are roads, and
after seeing what is being done in
that part Of the country, it makes
the proposition of road building in
Payette look like an easy task, The
people where ever you go are en-
Unused with the idea Of construct
ing good roads and within very
few years we are going to see hard
surfaced roads all over the country
roads that can be travelled at any
time of the year

The new act also raises the govern

$10,000,000 TO aid In forest-road build
ing during a ten-year period ending
June 80, 1926 Not over $3,000000 of
