 The intentions of the government as voiced in the German newspapers, is to have there organizations as instruments of the police chiefs ot the various cities without any con nection with the military authorities. 1t appears, however, according to the information in the hands of the Americans, that these units are to be housed in barracks in order to be available in case of any concerted trouble. COEts.nl ., are to be formed each of one hundred men, with a leader and number of officers for each company.
 While these units may perform po- lice duties, they are nevertheless, aC- cording to reports reaching AmerI- can headquarters, to be well trained bodies of men to be incorporated into the national army at a moments notice.
 The security police is to be the armed military constabulary for the larger towns, as differentiated from the voluntary guards for the smaller towns, the civil gendarmerie in the country districts, and the civil police in the towns.
 Figures quoted in the newspapers recently show 14,000 crimes in Ger many in the period from January l to June 30 last, as against 10000 in the whole of 1913. Officials say that. in the event of serious outbreaks this "lule4 IAe plestuL ClFll pOlICe Cdu- not be so expanded as to handle the situation.
 Up to this time Breslau has had an allowance of 675 policemen, to which ITO will be added recently au- thorized by the local ministry. Amer can officers say this increase Is in violation of article 162 of the peace treaty, which provides that the in crease in the number of gendarmes, employees or officials of the local or municipal police will be allowed only in proportion to the increase of popu- which they are employed

LOANS
 ARE SUGGESTED
 10 PARIIANTE '

LONDON, lP) The p~onsal of the French government to I~suo a huge lottery loan has aroused fnto~a-t ho~r to the extent that the chancellor of the exchequer has stated in the com. mons that he would not offer ob- jections to a British lottery loan if he were satisfied the people really wanted it. This statement was made in the face of a committee report adverse to such a loan submitted to rarliament at the last session.
 Some newsDaDpr commentators particularly the Daily Mail say that if the French adopt the proposm Great Britain should do likewise for two reasons: to keep at home money that undoubtedly would be invested in French bonds and because they beIiye such a loan would be a great success here. In this con nection they point out that the five per cent Victory Loan to boom which American Liberty Loan publicit, methods were adopted, did not reach the amount hoped for
 The French proposal is for the is stance of bonds of S1OO each which entities the holder to a full number On every day for two years a prize of $25O,O00 will be given away Be sides this there would be weekly prizes ranging from $500 down to $1.000.
 Many a man who would not be in terested in the average government bond even at high interest would have a few numbers in this huge lottery and money would be called out that the government could not ger otherwise" " observes one writer

 FALSE REMARKS

 It is true that the federal board for vocational education. to whom this letter was sent, retrains disabled service men in order that they may become self-supporting citizens. It places them in schools, colleges and institutes, and pays the expense. The sums paid range from eighty dollars a month for a single man, to one hundred fifty dollars a month for a married man, depending upon the number of his dependents.
