Vatican Seeks to
Float Loan in u. S.

ROME, July 2O.-Scarcity OF ready
cash in the Golfers Of the Vatican has
forced the Pope to contract for a loan
in the United States in order to build
the Congregation Propaganda Eide.
Due to the severe economic crisis
that has struck the world the amount
Of cash finding its way into Rome is
growing smaller and smaller. The
amount Of cash finding its way to the
Vatican is not known. The Pope to
whom all money is paid is not respon-
sible to anyone. No reports are made.
The last report of the Vatican budget
was made in 1870. In this way the
Pope alone knows the state OF the
treasure. AT the time OF the death
of Pope Plus TX. the Vatican had
about $6,000,000 in various invest.
ments. Since that time It is believed
that the investments OF the church
have grown much larger.
Il is admitted here that America is
more money than all Of
the rest Of the world put together.

This move Of Pilsudsh is looked
upon by the anti-Pilsudski forces as
an attempt to raise war scare and
If need be to enter into war in

the real political situation in Poland
and to avoid issuing a statement as to

workers and in the Diet.
German-LIthuanlan Conspiracy.
The Pilsudsh press is printing
lengthy articles of a conspiracy be-
tween Germany and Lithuania to at
tack Poland. The Pilsudski press in
dispatches states that the Lithuanian
army is preparing to move onto Wilma
and that the troops are singing the
March on Wilma"
Other dispatches tell of Soviet bor-
der patrols firing on Polish sentries.
Conservative journals, opposed to
Pilsudski, that have correspondents
at the places from which the alleged
press dispatches are sent have been
unable to find a basis for the news in
the Pilsudsh press.
A report purported to have been
made by the pacihst Herr Forester at
a secret meeting of socialistic club
in Berlin disclosing that as Germany
under the Versailles treaty was denied
the right to manufacture OF store war
materials she has made an agreement
with Lithuanfa to have ammunition

ed. At any future time that Germany
may war with any one Of the powers.
Lithuania would produce munitions

be the return Of Wilma and the terri
tory seized by Gen. Zeligowsh under
the Pilsudsh regime In 1921
Press RldIcuIes War Scare.
The opposition press have ridiculed
this statement of the Pilsudsh press
and declare that as feeling between
Lithuania and Poland has been bitter
since 1921 that Pilsudsh is attempting
to capitalize it IN a warscare and
make more secure his hold on the
Polish state.

RAISE FUNDS IN
CHICAGO TO AID
MUNCIE EDITOR
Appeal Before Indiana
Supreme Court

A drive is now on in Chicago to
raise $4,000 to aid George R. Dale,
Muncie, Indiana editor, to carry his
appeal to the United States Supreme
Court in fight to determine whether
a newspaper is in contempt of court
when it prints the truth.
Dale was sentenced by Judge
Dearth, an alleged member of the Ku
K1ux Klan, to months on the penal
farm and fined $500 because of an edi-
torial written by Dale in which he as
sailed the grand jury, the jury com
missioners, the sheriff and the county
prosecutor in his trial on a charge
of violating the Indiana liquor law.
The charge of violating the liquor
law was later dropped. Dale in his
editorial charged that the liquor law
violation charge was a frame-up and
an attempt on the part of the khan to
"get him" for his assaults on the
hooded order.
Emmett CaYanaugh, manager of the
Superior Packing Company, was one
of the first to send Dale $500 towards
his legal defense and promised to aid
in raising enough funds to fight the
case in the United States Supreme
Court.
The case in now before the Indiana
State Supreme Court. Attorneys for
Dale are bringing forth the argument
that the decision of this court uphold
ing the contempt of court sentence of
Judge Dearth is unconstitutional.
