EPISCOPAL CLERGY
TO HAVE PAY SCALE
General Convention, Which
Opens Thursday, Will Ar
range Schedule
CHURCH SURVEY
HAS BEEN MADE

Ths Episcopal general convention
which opens in Detroit Thursday and
continues until October 20. will take
up the question of higher salaries for
all priests inadequately paid. The
scale will be submitted in the budget
OF the church's national campaign.
One-hsf Of The clergymen Of the
church are receiving less than $500 a
year, and the new program is concern
ed primarily with these cases.
The concrete movement toward high
er salaries for Episcopal clergymen is
the result OF an extensive study OF the
question made in recent months by the
church, and OF individual solutions OF
the problem OF several Episcopal do
ceses.
An intensive survey OF fhe New Eng
land, Middle West and Pacific prov
inces OF the Church, made by the
Episcopal General Board OF Religious
Education for the campaign executive
committee. shows that OF 1879 salaried
clergy in these provinces. 57i receive
less than $500 a year. Twenty-eight
OF these receive less than $500 a year.
nfiy-three receive between, $500 and
$50. eiehty-four between $3.50 and
$1,000 and SOC between $1,000 and $500
Forty-three. most OF them bishops, re-
seive $1,000 and fifteen. eight Of them
in New England, receive more than
$1,000
The most successful solution OF the
problem OF higher salaries for the
clergy was achieved last year by the
Diocese OF Newark A "clergy bonus
funds" was raised among the lsymen
OF the diocese by private subscription
From this fund the more poorly paid
olergy received a percentage on theiv
salaries as a bonus for this year.

Gets rs YEARS
AS A MURDERER
Walter HUI Pleads Guilty In Scott
County District Co-rt to Stay
ing Man.

Walter Hill Of Davenport, slayer
of Herman Peetz, has pleaded gull
ty to murder in the second degree
and has been sentenced to rs years
Imprisonment at hard labor in the
state penitenuary at Fort Madison
Hills sentence was the climax
to one of the most sensational
scenes ever enacted in the criminal
department of a Scott county dis
trict court 1t was also the stormy
climax to a chapter of incidents
that probably have never been
paralleled in a district court OF the
state.
The sentence was preceded by as
scorching a tongue flashing on the
part of County Attorney Henry H.
Jebens as can fall from the lips of
state or county prosecutor. I'm
der the scorpion touch even the stoi-
cal Hill seemed for once to lose
his immobility and writhe as if the
flaming touch blistered his flesh.
When sentence was pronounced
Hill turned to his wife and mother
with d smile that evidently masked
his real feelings. The women fell
into each others arms and wept.
Mrs. Hill was inconSolable. She
had been confident that there would
be some way out of the nightmare
and that at the most her husband
would receive mild sentence.

: 3 Z. LIBERTY
LOAN is EASY
FOR THE u. S. A.
More Money and More
Wealth Now Than
Ever in History.

Despite the pangs of readjust-
ment through which this country
is now passing, the people of the
United States, taken as whole
were never in a better position tC
contribute to government loan
than they will be when the victory
Liberty loan is offered in the
spring.
The country has enjoyed-and
will soon again enjoy-an unparal-
lei prosperity. There must, OF
course, be a period of transition
Producers and wholesalers still
have goods made and bought at the
peak of the war time price advance
They naturally wish prices sus-
tanned until they can get out from
under. Consumers, on the other
hand, know that lower prices are
inevitable, and are withholding or
ders. This leads to temporary idle
ness and to unemployment.
But the pause is only temporary.
The nation has a bottled up demand
for commodities of all kinds-ac-
cumulated during the year or more
of war conditions that made it i'm
possible to get supplies for general
consumption, or that forced the
price level to prohibitive heights.
In all lines, therefore, the public is
now awaiting a return to practical
conditions to begin a great buying
campaign.
Everybody has money. On Dec. 1
last the per capita supply of money
had reached the highest point ever
known S56.23. Compare this with
the same date in the year 1879
1852. The government is borrow
ing in huge amounts, but the wealth
of the nation has grown enormous
~. Even in eleven months the
amount of money in circulation for
every man, woman and child in the
nation increased from $4S.76 to
S56.23. The total stock of money
in the United States increased in
the twelve months of 1918 by ST.
524 $685.. The investment power
of the people at large is now great
er in the United States than it has
ever been in the history in any
country
The latest bank report is suffi-
cient answer to the gloomy plants
that are now being heard from in
dividuals who cannot see beyond the
short interval of readjustment for
which the nation has now paused
The latest bank figures show that
the American people have accum-
ulated a mass of wealth such as no
other people ever possessed. The
public could subscribe a $4,000
100000 loan in April, if a national
crisis made this necessary, with lit
tie real hardship in any quarter

assure anyone who is faint of heart

Winnipeg, Man, April IA crisis
has been reached between returned

bers of the latter are preparing to
come in from South Dakota.
The veterans number 5000 members
in Winnipeg, and there are almost as
many more unattached and all are ter
ribly in earnest about stopping these
Germans. Today many messages were
received from the western branches OF
the veterans expressing sympathy and
telling the men to stick to their reso-
luton that no more of these aliens
shall come into Canada. These mes
sages were all signed yours for a

Careful watch Is being kept at the
border and cars of Mennonite house
furniture would not be allowed to
come into Canada, the soldiers say.

NOT INCLINED TO cENSuRE.

Washington, April II. United
Press. )-General staff officers today
reiterated General March's recent dec
laration that American forces in
northern Russia are perfectly safe and
able to hold their own against Bolshe-
Wiki attacks.
Despite the unrest in the Archangel
region, it was stated, it is physically
impossible to bring the troops home
earlier than announced because of ice.
What disposition will be made of the
men who mutinied March 20, and re-
fused to fight, staff officers We're un-
able to state. Technically the offense
is a grave one and usual disciplinary
measures would appear to be newt
able. In this case, however, it is
pointed out there is difficulty in ap-
plying the usual punishment for such
offense because public opinion ap-
pears to be with the men. Also re-
ports indicate even some of the Off
GERS have not had the highest morale
and probably have not been particu-
larly energetic in holding the men in
check.

Resent big Four'S" Seizure of
Authority; Clause Inserted

nizing Monroe Doctrine.
BY CARL D. GROAT.

Paris, April 11-(United Press)-The
plenary session of the peace confer
ence called for today to receive the re-
port of the committee on interna-
tional labor legislation was expected
to develop into a forum for airing the
dissatisfaction of small nations.
Many of the countries not repre-
sented in the big four are known to
resent the assumption of supreme au-
thority by that body, The belief was
expressed that, despite the fact that
formation of the big four" has re-
suited in unusual speed in arranging
a peace settlement, representatives of
the little powers would seize the op-
portunity to place on record their dis
approval of what they regard as de.
liberate evasion of their rights.
The league of nations commission
last night agreed to insertion in
the Covenant of clause speeifi-
caliy recognizing the Monroe doc
trine. The amendment was pre-
pared by Colonel House.
The big four was expected to an.
nounce shortly further agreement on
important questions in line with Presf-
dent Wilson's IA points and the armis-
tice terms.

This in substance is the findings of

sponsibility for the war as learned to-
day. Although the big four" has main
tanned official silence in this connec-
ton, these tangible conclusions have
reached the surface.
CAN'T FIND PRECEDENT.
The idea of an international high
court to try those indicted for war
crimes is understood to have been
abandoned. No local precedent could
be found under which criminals could
be extradited to such a court. 1t has
been decided, however, that this situa =
ton will not prevent nationals, such
as Belgium, from extraditing enemy
officials on local indictments, provid :
ing sufficient evidence is obtained.
Submarine officers and crews,
prison camp commandants and
guards and provisional, command
ers of conquered districts would be
the ones most easily reached un-
der such a plan.
Efforts would then be made to
trace the sources of their orders
to "hisher ups"

While capital punishment for the

be taken to prevent him from ever re-
