McAdoo is about to Isauo 110,060,000,000 worth of treasuiy certai flea tew, and t4.Oo0,,(M)O.oou of them will le put Into circulation be tween now and July 1, Joc-ph II. . Albert, cashier of the iCapItal Na ' tional hank. said yesterday: "I wUh that It was in inv power to show every man and woman it. this community, who ha any -noncy at all. that It Is a duty they owe t the government to buy these certifi cate), which later can be x( hi nge i for the new liberty. loan bonds, bear ing 4V4 per cent seml-arnual interest. rAbout every ten days we gel no vtlce to take up so many, of ttaee treasu'ry certificates The first call came on February 1, the second on "Feb. y then on Feb. 15, and tonior-i row will be another call. I have'thci notice now on my desk. These calls j will continue at these intervals until the fast of June, when It in s im posed that the full $4,000,000,100 will have been subscribed. "Now, you can see the pe.lnt to . thla whole scheme of the treasury department. The country could not possibly stand a call for that amount all at once, bat by spreading it out on the Installment plan, as you might say. it Is easy enough to han dle. When the blanket telegrart was first sent out to the hundreds of thousands of banks in all parts of the country. I know of one pa triotic hank that wired at once its acceptance of, the imposition ii these characteristic words: " 'You can have everything this bank owns, excetp the fixtures. "There Is no danger that any of the banks will not' have plenty of monye for ordinary business. In cluding checking accounts of cus tomers, but, while there never has been so much money in the banks cf the country as at presfent. it Is m t to be thrown awav Ca unnecessary or Inconsequential business transac tions, for we don't know how long there will be plenty of money, and if we do not v in this war, our niont y will be .worth "nothing. "The sale of war savins stamps, thrift stamps and liberty loan bonds has already taken out of Salem near ly one million dollars, and the third liberty loan bond sale is called for In a few days.

"There is a steady growth in the movement for economy. JBanks should , be able, by participating in the campaign frr economy, which mans H onorav f crelit as well as of expenditure, t teach their cus limers to have and accumulate the means to buy the government's cer tificates and bonds.

"We will all have to get there. sooner or later or lose the war. and that would b to lose all .money property ' of every kind, and llfe- Itself" The following telegram wag sent hy W.'O. McAdoo, secretary of the treasury, to all banks and trust com panies In the United States: "Between now and the time for making the nexi liberty loan, I shall offer for subset iptlon. treasury cer tificates of Indebtedness In amounts of $300,000,000 or more every two weeks.1 "I desire to 'postpone the next liberty loan issue until conditions will insure a wide distribution of the bonds throughout the country. "In order tui;cessf ully to carry through this program and to pro vide for the expenditure for., the military operations of the United ftates end the allies. I must have the whole-hearted co-operation of the bankers of the United States and to that end I request the board of directors or trustees of each bank and trust company to reserve each week out of Its workable week out of Its loanable funds, for till " " !

I know that once it Is realized that by com plete co-operation all around and by every one doing his part, this vital and patriotic service can be performed, every bank will do its share." ) . "We are approaching a critical test on the battle fronts In Europe. America's sons are now actually shedding their b'ood In the trenches. If the banks, which are the first line of financial defense, fall to support the government fully in its necessary operations, we shall imperil Ameri ca's army and America's safety. I know that I have only to state the case to command the support of ev ery patriotic hank and banker. This is a supreme duty of patriotism. May i count upon you to doyounpart and Monnca, Pa.

It Is possible, there will still be dispute about the details, but the main thing has been achieved. The will topeace has been expressly announced from the Rus sian side, while the conditions have been accepted and the conclusion of peace must ensue within a very short time. J "To safeguard the fruits of our peace with Ukraine, our army com mand drew the sword. Peace with Russia will be the happy result. "Peace negotiations with Rumania began at Uuchape-st yesterday. It ap peared necessary that Secretary von Kuehlmann should be present there during the first days when the foundations were laid. Now, how ever, he will presumably soon go to Brest-LItovsk. Austria's Interest Watched. "It Is to be remembered regarding negotiations with Rumania that we are not taking part In them alone, and are under obligation to champ Ion the Interests of our allies. Austria Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey, and to see to It that a compromise Is arranged there regarding any diverg ent desires that will possibly give rise to difficulties, but these difficulties will be overcome. "With regard to Rumania, too. the guiding principle will be that we must, and desire to convert Into friends the state with which on the basis of success of our army, wa now. conclude peace. "I wilteay a word regarding Po land, In behalf of whom the entente and President Wilson have recently appeared specially to Interest them sleves. as a well know country lib erated from oppressive dependence on czarist Russia by the united forces of Germany and Austria-Hungary, for the purpose of establishing an in dependent state, which In unrestrict ed development of Its national cult ure, shall at the same time becomo a pillar of peace in Europe. "The constitutional problem In the narrower sense the miestinn what constitution the new state shall receive could not. as is easily un derstood, be -Immediately decided, and Is still In the stage of exhaustive Discussions between the three coun tries concerned. A fresh difficulty nas oeen added to the many dlffl cultles which have in this connec tlon to be overcome, difficulties es pecially in the economic domain in consequence of the collapse of old Russia. This difficulty results from the delimitation of the frontier be tween the new .state . and adjacent itussian territory. For this reascx the news of peace with the Ukraine at first evoked great uneasiness In Poland. I hope, however, that with good will and proper regard to tho ethnographical conditions ft compro mise on tne claims will be reached. The announced intention to make a serious attempt In this direction has greatly calmed Polish circles.

"The entente are fighting for the acquisition or portions Of Austro Hungarian territory by Italy and for tne severance of Palestine. Syria and Araoia rrom the Turkish empire. England has. particularly cast an eye on portions of Turkish territory, She has suddenly discovered an af fection for the Arabians and ahe hopes by utilizing the Arabians to annex rresh territories to the flrltlsh empire, perhaps by the creation of a protectorate dependent upon British domination. "Tbat the colonial wars of Eng land are directed toward Increasing and rounding out the enormous Rritlsh possessions, particularly in Africa, has been repeatedly stated by British statesmen. England hopes by the creation of a dependent pro tectorate to annex new portions of the territory to the British empire and to increase and round off the British possessions, especially In Africa. "In the face of this policy, en tente statesmen dare to represent Germany as the disturber of peace, who. in the lnterest,if world peace. must De conrined wUhln the narrow est bounds.

Von Payer expressed the conviction that the Prussian franchise reform bill soon would be adopted. He strongly condemned the recent strike movement, saying that, whils ur direct effect had been small. It had greatly prejudiced the prospects of peace by raising hopes of Ger many's political and economic col lapse to the highest pitch. - The vice chancellor asserted only one thing could help Germany's ene mies, namely .lack of unity behind tne front.
