TERMS OF NOTE ARE
POSITIVE AND DIGNIFIED
Wilson Realized Full Gravity of
Meaning of Note Agreed
Upon.
Washington. ? President Wilson
virtually completed the note to Gery
many as a result of the sinking of the
T lioif r?
Ajuonaiua*
It asks Germany for an accounting
for the series of violations of American
rights in the war zone?not only
j financial, but moral?and a guarantee
that there will be no repetition of unlawful
practices of German subma^
rines.
If The note, approved by the cabinet,
was sent to Ambassador Gerard
to be presented to the Berlin government
Its final details were revised
carefully. Members of the cabinet
who abvays have'advocated a vigorous
foreign policy are satisfied with
its terms; conservative members approve
it also. That it maintains the
^dignity and honor of the United
States is their unaniomus opinion.
The president, it is said, realizes
fully the gravity of meaning in the
note and is prepared for any eventualities
that may follow its presentation.
The note does not say exactly what
.1 / iL II *1.^.1 ...ill
ine course ?l uiu umini oiaico v>m
J be in case of a refusal, nor would the
president's advisers indicate beyond
^ saying that each new development
would be considered as it arose.
In official quarters, however, eventp
il severance of diplomatic relation.4
th Germany is declared not impossiole
if there is no abatement of the
German practices.
It was learned that the president's
^pacific utterances in his speech in
Philadelphia are not reflected in the
firm and unequivocal phrases of the
note. It is described as a businesslike
document, demanding the "strict
accountability" which the United
States in its former note to Germany
said it would demand. It not only
asks for a termination of the unlawful
moth oris of suhmarino warfare on
merchant ships, but reparation in full
to the families of the victims of the
Lusitania tragedy.
Everywhere in ofltcial quarters, as
details of the president's plan of action
became known there was talk of
firmness, and a stiffening of the position
of the United States govern?
ment towards Germany*
" The White House officially announced
that the president finally had
# determined the course of action to be
pursued. The following statement
Pt . was issued by Secretary Tumulty afW)-Vr
a conference with the president:
^ yThe course of the president has
a determined. It will be announc4
pa,yst as soon as it is proper to

Dispensaries are Closed.
Because one member of the Aiken
county dispensary board has been enjoined
and the other two members are
at loggerheads, Gov. Manning ordered
all dispensaries in Aiken county
closed. The governor took this action
because he considered it for the Inst
interests of the taxpayers, and in
view of the excitement and because
under existing conditions any questions
relating to the dispensary can
not be satisfactorily adjusted.
The Aiken county dispensary board
is composed of W. T. Hite, H. P.
Dyches, and M. B. Smith, the latter
being a holdover. Mr. Smith has been,
enjoined in the fourts and Mr. Hite
and Mr Dyches are at loggerheads
and any question which might arise
concerning the dispnesary is consequently
incapable of being satisfactorily
adjusted. Because of this situaton
and the other reasons given Gov.
Manning ordered the dispensaries
closed. He sent the following telegram
to Sheriff H. H. Howard of
Aiken county:
44By authority vested in rne by
section soou, code Vol. li, l
hereby order all Aiken county dispensaries
closed until further orders.
Please see that this order is immediately
carried out."

i first, there was some suggestion that
the communication be sent personally
by the president to Emperor William,

POSTAL SAVINGS BANK.
May Now Make Deposits by Mail
Where There is No Local Postal

Every person in the United States
ten years or over may open an account
in a postal savings bank after
July 1st, according to an instructive

the service will be made possible by
permitting offices as regular postal
savings banks to open accounts by
mail.
Governor Dockery, Third Assistant
Postmaster General, who has di-,
rect supervision that he took up the
task some weeks ago of working out
a feasible an safe method for meeting
a demand well illustrated in a
letter from a Saline County Missourian,
who resides many miles from a'
postal savings bank.
"Saving a few hundred dollars saved
from fifty years of hard and assiduous
labor and skimping economy
on the part of my wife and myself,
we concluded to deposit it in the
Postal Saving Bank of . We
wrote to the postmaster at that place
and received reply to the effect that
j none but patrons of that office could

' disappointing news to us. Our little
j farm is not large enough to support
! us and land is so high that it is ini;
possible for us to buy more with what
little we have saved and we are so
old that wc can't labor much now and
we would be so glad to lay by at
least enough to put us away in decency."
Under the plan adopted b.\ the Post
master General for opening accounts
by mail an intending depositor, residing
where there is no regular designated
postal savings bank, will apply
to his local postmaster who will see
that necessary identification data is
prepared and forwarded to a nearby
post ofiici authorized to accept deposits.
The depositor will then be
g'ven permission to forward his first
subsequent deposits by money order!
or registered mail direct to the postmaster
at the banking point for
which receipts or certificates will be
issued. He may withdraw all or any
part of his postal savings by mail
and on demand together with any interest
that may be due him.
The new leaflet points out that any
person ten years old or over may
open an account in h;s or her own
! nante; that an account may be open;
ed by a married woman free from any
I control or interference by her husband;
that postoffice officials are forbidden
to disclose to any person, ex
cept the depositor, the amount of am
deposits; that withdrawals mnv he
' made without previous notice; and
l that the Government guarantees to
; repay all deposits on demand with aci
erucd interest.
The leaflet will soon he printed in
; 22 foreign languages for distribution
through local post offices. The foreign
born citizen has taken very kindly
to postal savings, and literature in
his own language will be of great assistance
to him. In a recent article,
j Postmaster General Hurleson commented
on the foreign-born depositor
as follows:
''Upwards of 500,000 depositors
! now have accounts in the Postal
! System and they represent every nationality
on the earth. They also
represent almost every known occupation?professional
men, theatrical
people mechanics, laborers, fishermen,
pacK peddlers, etc. Rut the majority i
are wage-earners, and of this class'
the foreign-born largely predominate.

MARSH, Manager
A census of depositors taken by the
Post Office Department shows that
approximately 40 per cent. (200,000)
of the depositors are foreigrnborn
citizens and they own more than
50 per cent of the deposits?sp
evidence of the confidence of our newly
acquired citizens in the ability and
good faith of their adopted country
to fulfill its obligations.
"There is another reason which led
immigrants, unfamiliar with our language
and business methods, to turn
10 the Government to safeguard their
humble savings and that reason is the
disastrous experiences many of them
have had by the failures of bogus
"private banks" ollicered by swindllers
of their own tongue who have
preyed mercilessly upon their loneliness
and credulity."
Postal savings receipts have broken
all records the past year. During
the eight months prior to April 1st

have been opened and the millions
made up largely of hidden savings
have been turned back into the channels
of trade just at a time when
there was pressing demand for every

of us as to what an abundant supply

for some hours, and every phase
of the matter was gone over in detail.
1 think every man at the conference
was convinced of the sufficiency
of the supply of raw material
and the quality. At any rate, at a
near date they are coming down in a
part to inspect personally the
sources of supply and fully investigate
for themselves, and I have undertaken
to give them every facility
for that purpose. They realize that
the great need of and demand for lime

feet and moved approximately 120
feet nearer shore when one of the
cables under the stern parted. The
