Our hanks are public-spirited and pro gressive. and whenever ii call comes for service they always .respond cheerfully and help along in the Work. 'Srietr has been Their record in all of the .previous loans as well as all other government appeals that have been made. We couldn’t pret verv far without our banks. The approaching Liberty Loan will probably be a mojre severe test of the patriotism of Americans than any loan which has preceded. The war is over and the fear of possible defeat has vanished. In dividual responsibility, however, is as strong as ever. The debts of the nation are ours, and the payment of them with money which will be returned to us with interest should be willingly undertaken. PULL TOGETHER. Are we as a community pulling together? Or are we pulling in opposite directions? Organiza tion is the great community need of the day. Without organization men and women are apt to sink below the level of mules. Even mules, in times of danger or panic, have been known to co-operate. They sometimes kick together. If it were given to mules to think, they would wonder at' the ways of men. That men and women, liv ing and working in the same com munity. should refuse to he friend ly and to eo-operate, is one of the riddles of civilization. The only benefits worth having are the bene fits we can share with our neigh bors. Individual benefits count fort that brings everlasting good. Good roads. • factories, better schools, good markets, public- spirit. etc., can only he secured when ALL pull together. Every man, woman and child in this com munity should give part of his or her time to community work. But don’t wait for someone else - to start it. Begin \Vith YOURSELF. With David Lloyd George. British Q> prime minister, again in his seat after his visit to London, where he defend ed his action at the peace conference before the house of commons, the council of four renewed, its" hearing of the claims of the Italians to the im portant Adriatic seaport of Fiume and also had under discussion the question of fthe Polish claims to Dianziz on the Baltic! The council met at the “white house.Y the residence in Paris of President Wilson. The opinion prevails in Paris Jthat with the Italian demands now the re maining obstacle to a full agreeemnt, the situation is such that President Wilson will he able to sail homeward in mid-May with a signed copy of th* peace treaty ’for submission to Con gress. which in some quarters in Paris it is believed will be’ called in extra session not later than June 1. Little opposition to the peace terms is expected from the Germans, accord ing to the latest reports in circulation in Paris as they are declared to be anxious for a ..■return, to peace -condi tions at the earliest moment possible. It is asserted that there is to be no German text of the treaty—the docu ment to be issued only in the French and English languages. , Although a general strike has been proclaimed in Bremen and the asser tion haa been made that it has been impossible to unload foodstuffs, taken there on an American steamship, a German wireless communication as serts that the unloading of the vessel is assured. Employees of department stores and specialty shops In Beriin have joined the bank employes’ strike. In Bavaria the situation still remains acute, but few details are available. In Vienna there also has’ been disturb ances. The bolsheviki attempted to storm the parliament building but were defeated. Brigadier General Richardson has arrived on an ice-breaker at Archangel to take command of the American forces fighting in that region.
