1t is reported that the allies are
planning to offer for sale the German
PREPARATION bonds at so cents on the
dollar. Probably these bonds would
be dear at any price. There is no as
surance that they ever will be paid
even as to interest. American inves-
tors will do well to think twice before
buying these bonds. They probably
will be afforded the opportunity TO
purchase them.

Labor leaders continue to talk about
the enemies of organized labor
meaning of course the employers. But
it would be just as reasonable and as
near the truth to call the members of
the unions the enemies of the men
who pay their wages. Probably there
