EXECUTIVES PLAN
; FIFTH BOND ISSUE
"Victory Loan" to "Finish the
Job," Says State Manager
Robert E. Smith.
The fifth Libert loan-e'r ."Victory
loan'" as it will be called-Mwhlch will
be floated eon$e time In Ajirll, will be
M.mucb of a. popular loan aa any of
the fowr great loans floated during the
.war, in the opinion' of Robert K. Smith.
state Liberty loan manager, who has
returned from San Francisco where he
attended the conference of Liberty loan
and War Saving Stamp executives, Fri
day and Saturday. Others attending the
conference, from Portland, were : Mrs.
K el ley Reea, executive secretary of the
Women'a Liberty Loan -organization ; C.
S. i Jackson, state director, and Henry
K.j Heed, associate director of the. War
Savings Stamp" campaign. The confer
ence was held for the purfjose of con
sidering matters in connection with the
Liberty loan and War Savings Stamp
campaigns. N
The amount to be ralse.d in the "Vic
tory" loan will prohably be In the neigh
borhood of $6,000,000,000. the same as
In the fourth loan, according to Mr.
Smith, although this remains to be de--,
termined. as well as the exact date for
launching the campaign. The rate of
interest. Mr. Smith believes, will be a
shade higher than in former loans, prob
ably 4V4 per cent, making the "Victory"
loan bonds even a . better investment
than any of the other war bonds.
"This will be the last Liberty loan
' AIIU Hip U VC IHUCIII . . 1 'CV I D IV 1 1 1 1 1 V. lb
a pdpular loan that is taken by the
people generally," Mr. Smith explained.
"The slogan of the 'Victory' loan cam-
. paign will be; 'let's finish the Job, and
' the patriotism of the people will be ap
pealed to Just as elfc-ongly as in former
campaigns as the task of winning the
- war will not be completed until the bills
accumulated through the extravagant
. preparation which, made possible the
ending of the war in 1918. instead of
1919, have been taken care of. Thou
sands of American boys have been saved
because of this seemingly reckless ex
penditure of money, and unquestionably
the war, with its destruction and devas
tation, has been shortened many months
because of America's generous program,
and surely no real patriot is going to
shirk his part in meeting the bills now
that the war . is ended and ended as
we wanted it ended.
"The method for figuring the quotas
of the new loan as to districts, states.
counties, cities and towns will remain
unchanged," stated Mr. Smfth. "There
fore, in a general way, any town can
figure its quota right now, and, what
is more important, every person knows
Just exactly what he must subscribe in
order for his town, county and state
to go over the top, and we should begin
to prepare to meet our Individual quotas
right now.
"No definite .announcement with re
spect to the details of the loan can be
made until the necessary legislation has
been enacted by congress. The Initial
payment of the 'Victory' loan, however.
Will be 10 per cent and the remaining
payments will be scattered over a long
period, probably five months. The min
imum bond will be $50, the same as in
former foans."
The delegates were guests of the San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce at a
luncheon and of Governor James K.
Lynch at a banquet in honor of Louts
B. Franklin, national director of the
war loan organization, who came west

ence:. -. ;

ODESSA IN HANDS
OF FRENCH TROOPS

filiations and Seek to Reach
Understanding.
By Harry Hansen
Special Cable to The Joaroal and 'the Chicago
Daily New. '
(Copyright, 1919, by Chicago ally Newa Co.)
Paris, Jan. 21. The obscurity of the
sltuaUon in Odessa has been lifted by
the first actual story of. the debarka
tion of French troops there on Decem
ber 18 under fire of the Belshevlkl, told
by Maurice Parx, correspondent of Le
Petit Parislen. Odessa today is In the
hands of the French, who were landed
! by Admiral Lejoy, and the city is under
the military governor, Glrichine Alma
zoff. Bolshevik troops under the
Ukrainian Hetman Peioura are sending
envoys to the French (Consul to arrive at
an understanding.
When the French landed 'they were
fired on. Several shells from cannon fell
r-ear them, but did little damage. The
Ukrainians, however, lost a number of
men, whereupon Peloura demanded an
armistice and withdrew with his troops
to their present position. Although Pe
loura maintains that he is not a Bolshe
vlkl but a National Ukrainian and pro
fesses hatred of the Germans, the
French declare that he is in relations
with Lenin, who funfshes propaganda
money for working against the allies.

Red Cross Carries
Aid to Discharged
Men at New Office
The Red Cross this morning enlarged
the scope of Its plan for caring for the
discharged soldier by opening a branch
office in Liberty temple in charge of
Mortimer H. Hartwell, who has Just
returned from Central officers' training
school at Camp Zachary Taylor.
The Red Cross hitherto has met the
returned soldier problem through augu
mented forces in the home service sec
tion at the headquarters. 501. Gasco
building. While many problems, espe
cially those affecting dependents, prob
ably will continue to be handled at the
Gasco building, the aim in the Liberty
temple office Is 'o b Ins the Red Cross
to the soldier. In addition, close co
ordination will be made possible between
the United States Employment service
and the Red Cross
But a small percentage of returned
soldiers need financial assistance, points
out Miss Hanita Friedenthal, who has
been active in this phase of Red Cross
work. But when financial assistance is
required the need is acute.
In many instances when the men have
secured employment they need equip
ment or railroad, fares. It wlrfc be Mr.
Hartwell's aim to arrange for this.
For the first few days Mr. Hartwell
will be assisted by R. E. Arne. represent
ing the American National Red Cross.

merce by appealing to members to urge
their wives to .enroll, and several men
volunteered the use of their own cars.
At noon today Miss Ryan spoke before
the Rotary club. Members of the corps
will appear at scores of meetings this
week, impressing the need of the corps
for recruits to keep Red Cross work at
its maximum efficiency.

HOW TO SAVE ON SHOES
' .
"Out of curiosity I tried a pair of
Neelin Soles," writes W. P. Macartney
of St. Louis, "and today, after five
months of hard service I fail to notice
any real signs of wear on them."
This statement points the way to
real economy in shoes. What your
shoes cost, by the year, depends largely
on how the soles wear and Neolin Soles
do wear a very long time,. Moreover,
they are exceedingly comfortable and
waterproof scientifically made to be
exactly what soles should be and so
worn now by millions.
They are available everywhere on
new shoes and for re-soling. They are
made by The Goodyear Tire & Rub
ber Company, Akron, Ohio, who also
make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to
outwear any-other heels.
