 The letter was from Mrs. Mabel Fonda Gareissen. of New York, one of the gold star'' mothers, relating a conversation she had with a New York undertaken. She wrote that she went to his place in company with Miss Jane ORyan, sister Of Major General OhRyan, to seek accurate in- formation regarding reports that con- tracts were at the bottom of the agi- tation for the return of the soEdier dead.
 Mrs. Gareissen's letter reported that the undertaken said that powerful pressure was being brought to bear in Washington, through powerful representatives, both in Congress and out" and it was hoped to begin nov ing the bodies by spring All expense was to be borne by the government, she said she was told.
 The man was quoted as saying the dead were in no condition for en- balYning, so that strong dGsinfectants and dramatically sealed coffins would have to be used, which would prevent

Cochran, and English promoter

Cochran, and English promoter of professional sports.
 All three believe he says, that the International Olympic Committee made a great mistake in deciding to hold games this year and that it will be impossible to reorganize the sport in sufficient measure to enable Great Britain to be adequately represented q at Antwerp. In order to save the British prestige from the injury it sustained at Stockholm it will be necessary to spare no effeort in se- curing the best possible team and make a united attempt to improve the British athletic standards.
 With this object in view he writes:
 "AlI three agree that up to now the attempts at organizing Olympic teams have been failure, and that to get the best of our goods on show at Ant werp next year we must strike out on fresh lines. Also there is a gen. eral idea that instead of leaving the organizing side, and especially tha financial end of 1t, in the hands oi a scratch collection, we should call in the best brains of the nation. the best business men, to assist in de. yising a sound plan of campaign, one

British Plan More Vigorous Method of
 Olympic Preparation

In the absence of a definite state ment from the British Olympic Council on the subject of prepara- ton for the Olympic Games at Ant werp this year an English writer has obtained the opinions of three distinct personalities on athletics generally and the Olympic Games in particular. These three are Lieutenant-Colonel Arnold, N. s. Jackson an English of- hcer and we1l-known athlete; Ser

TRY TO PROFIT
 ON SOL DEER DEAD
 IS CHARGE MADE

Washington. Jan. 14.---Charges by relatives of American soldiers buried in France that undertakers and others were attempting to conmercialize their grief, in connection with the movement to have the bodies brought home, were presented to the Senate yesterday by Senator Thomas, Demo- crat, of Colorado.
 T do not know whether the charge Is true," Senator Thomas declared, 'fbut it Is in line with a number of cir cumstances that developed since the close of the war, showing there is some sort of an organization that is designed to derive profit from the plan of returning the bodies."
 Senator Thomas had asked that a letter from a New York woman bear

on which we can build, not merely for the 1920 games but for the fu- ture.
 Tt is generally agreed that the very first thing needfu1 to the organization of an efficient Olympic team for Antwerp is money. and plenty of it. As to the directions in which the money should be applied, and even how it should be raised, there are di- vergent opinions, but money must be found. I am very much of MT. Cochran's opinion that money could be found by exploiting the public taste for sport itself"
 The writer suggests a publicity campaign which would have the ef- feet of interesting the great business men of the country in the prepara- tions. He says that everyone should do all that is consonant with their principles as soprtsmen. In conclu- sion he says. "I believe in advertise ment and if the games can do noth- ing else they can give us that, as they have America, and it is just as well to have a good one"

a jury would be required in some

caused Judge Morley to order a

On Tuesday, May is, in response
to such order thes e jurors appeared
in court and when the matter was

The property consists of nine
teen patented claims from which
considerable ore of high grade
has been taken. A tunnel has
been driven 22OO feet, cutting
three of the veins, which are now
being worked, and are producing
ore.
1t is the intention of the com
pany to resume work driving the
tunnel ahead at an early date, and
to continue the same until all the
veins shall have been reached.
1t is reasonable to assume that
this property will be the largest

The tunnel gives not only drain

However, it should be borne in

The board decided that it would

Your Liberty Bond

The United States Government
borrowed money from you to e.
nance the War. You hold the
Governments promise TO pay you
back. This promise is called
Liberty Bond or Victory Note
On this Bond is stated the condi-
tions under which the Govern
ment borrowed the money from
you.
For instance: If you hold a
Bond of the Third Liberty Loan,
it states that on April 18th and
October 18th of each year until
maturity, you will receive interest
on the amount you paid for the
Bond. Other issues bear other
rates of interest and other matur-
ity dates, all of which are clearly
stated on the Bond.
Now, if you keep your Bond un-
til the date when the Government
pays you in full for it. you do not
need to worry if, in the meantime,
the price is low one day or high
the next. You and Uncle Sam
are living up to your agreement
with each other, and neither will
lose by it.
On the other hand, if you sell
your Liberty Bond now, you will
find that the man you sell it to
Will not give you dollar for every
dollar you paid for it. The price
has been brought down because
SO many people are offering to sell
their Bonds. If the market is
flooded with tomatoes, you ca
buy them cheap, but if everyon,
, is clamoring for tomatoes AM
} there are few to be had, the pric
I goes up. The same is true Is
Liberty Bonds. Short-sightet
people are dumping them on tn,
market, and wise ones are buying
them.
The best advice that can be
given to the owner of Liberty
Bond is this: Hold the bond that
you bought during the war; it is
as safe and sound as the United
States Government itself.
Buy as many more at the pre-
sent low rateas you can afford. If
you hold them to maturity, you
are bound to make the difference
between what they sell at now and
their face value. You will also
receive good interest on your
investment.
Hold on to your Liberty Bonds
and buy more.
