HO RAIDS DE5IAN"DED.
Fear Felt That League Protection
Will Be Inadequate Defi
nite Alliance Desired.
TARIS, April 20. Editorial writers
of Paris newspapers are again clamor
ing for definite and efficacious guar
antees to ward off a repetition in future
of German aggression. To this end tney
demand either an alliance with the
United States and Great Britain or pro
tection by the league of nations.
Pertinax in the Echo De Paris says
that while the left bank of the Rhine
is occupied and the fate of the Saar
basin is in suspense nothingvbut an al
liance pure and simple will serve.
St. Brie in the Journal declares an
alliance must contain a military en
gagement of a very definite nature and
that the league of nations must not
supplant an alliance until it becomes
real and non-fictitious in other words
when it offers military security at least
equivalent to that of an alliance.
Lieutenant-Colonel Rousett in the
Petit Parislen makes the point that,
granting all good will on the part of
the United States and Great Britain.
France ought not to be expected to
bear the brunt of an eventual German
attack alone until American and Brit
ish aid would have time to come to the
rescue.

cover by their own subscriptions all
applications received by them. In the

ber of subscribers and the aggregate
amount of notes subscribed for by each

as may be prescribed by the secretary
of the treasury.
No Commissions Payable.
"No commissions will be paid upon
subscriptions, and those who receive
and transmit applications are, there
fore, rendering the service to sub
scribers as a patriotic duty. Only the
federal reserve banks are authorized
to act as fiscal agents of the United
States in connection with the opera
tions of selling and delivering notes of
the victory liberty loan.
"Applications must be accompanied by
payment of 10 per cent of the amount
of notes applied for. No payment other

deemed to be for notes of the 4 per
cent series except applications specify
ing notes of the SH per cent aeries,
