Conirress is very busy with bills lor financing the war with Cermanv. The principal measure will come before the House lor action on Friday. It provides for r,,000,0(KI i 0(10 m bonds and ()()() 000,000 in treasury certificates. The bill provides that not to exceed 8:5 000,000,000 from the proceeds ol the bonds may be used in extending credits to the entente allies. The remaining . ,000, 000 000 is to be used at home It also authorizes an additional bond issue, not to exceed $(i:!,l) I5I(i(), to redeem the ;! per cent loan of 1'IOS, maturing August 1, If IS.

If, at any time prior to December :SI, I ills, a sub sequent series of bonds is issued at a higher rate of interest, bonds issued under authority of the act may be convertible into bonds bearing the higher rate. Little delay is anticipated in the Semite. Within two weeks the measure may be on the statute books. To )revent any possible financial handicap to tin; military needs of the country through delay in raising the $ I J.'iO.OOO.OOO proposed as the amount to be obtained by taxation, the ways and means committee decided to embody in the bond issue authoriza tion authority to the Secretary of the Treasury to issue as needed $2,000,000,000 in one-year treasury notes to anticipate the lax receipts which will result from the war revenue bill. The latter measure will be considered after the bond issue bill has been dis posed of. In regard to South American participation in the war, diplo mats in Uio Janeiro expect that the other South American nations will follow the lead of lirazil, which severed relations with !er many on Tuesday. This action of lirazil clears up much of the doubt as to the attitude of Latin American countries in the war. Definite advices have been teceived that Chile and .Mexico would rmi:iin niMilrid and indications increased that Cuatemala and Peru would join Cuba and Panama on the side of the Failed States- The action of lirazil and Argentina is expected to have a tremendous .influence on other Solilli American republics. Mexico's decision to remain neutral, on the whole, caused no surprise and is regarded as certain lo have little influence with her sister republics. Reports that Ceneral Carrauza has a dis tinct pro-Cerman altitude have not been given much credit by ollicials in Washington, and iieitlier have they believed widely circulated stories that he was preparing to ally himself openly with (lennany. A Ceneva, Switzerland, newspaper, commenting on the re port that several of the South American republics will follow the lead of the Failed States in breaking with (lennany says: "The essential factor is in the progressive expulsion of ler many from all continents today. Kven if the lirilish fleet did not exist, the Hermans would not have a port of call outside Fumpe, except in Siam. For an over-populated and over-productive coun try which lives by exportations and which would die if forced to fall back on itself, the loss of South America, coming after that of China, is a genuine catastrophe. It has often been said, 'in war victory alone counts,' Ifiil that is no longer true. The future counts more, (lennany is victorious in Furopc, but shut out from Ihe rest of the world " While in Washington on Tuesday Colonel Uonscwlt held a conference with President Wilson and Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the commidee on military alLiirs. Afterwards Sena tor Chamberlain saitl: "Colonel llooscvclt is just as full of vigor and energy as when I first saw him !." years ago. IU' made il plain thai he was squarely backing the President and he believed in hilling hard and quick, lie told me of his plan to organize a division, lie could raise more volunteers than any oilier man in this country. For my part. 1 would allow him to raise a division or even more, lie could get 100,000 volunteers in two weeks." In the matter of an adequate national food supply, President Wilson has written a letter to the National Agncultur.il Sorietw lie said: "At the present moment, it is our plain duty to take adequate steps thai not onlv mav our ow u people be fed but that we may, if possible, answer the call for food of other nations now at war. In this greatest of human nceif-, 1 feel that the American tanner will do his part to the utmost, I'.y planting and increasing his produc tion in every way possible, cv cr farmer will perform a labor of patriotism for which he w ill Ik recognized as a soldier ol the com missary, adding his shale to the food supply ol our people."
