W. Eyre, Win. Walton, Jos. H. Albert and 8. H. Klliott have prepared the following statement as their reasons why the Victory Liberty loan should be absorbed by the public generally: "In reaching a determination as to the various characteristics of the Vic tory Liberty loan, particularly as to Tntes of interest on the notes at the limitation of the amount, and the re jection of over subscriptions, the secre tary of the treasury had In mind, par ticularly, the great importance of in curing a wide distribution of these mite to real investors, so that they could be pt.id for out of present or fu . ture savings and consequently without creating any strain on the banking re source of the country. yr mm, ss announced, have met with universal ap proal, but it should be impressed upon ever Liberty Loan eoinniittee IB the country, thst the real task before ut ia not accomplished, aimplv bv rr.ising the leeifieri amount of moner. If that had' been the aide object, it is probable that the amount of the loan would have been fixed at larger figure and the over subscriptions accepted. It is most 1m imrtunt at this time with the dissolu tion of the great volunter Liberty lof.n organization, after the close ol this ramiiaigu, that everything possible should tie done to prepare tie way for an absorption of the over-supply of gov ernment bonds, which has been the chief reason for the decline In the price of the old issue tad the plan of the eeretnry was r.dopted with particular reference to this situation."

In the INCREASED PAY FOR TEACHERS OF SALEN REQUESTffiBYTODD Superintendent Declares Sal ary Advance Needed To Prevent Disruption Of Teaching Force. Attention r.8 recently railed, in these oluiuns, to the muter of teach ers Hies in Salem, which, regard less ""lie ten per eont advance ar range the board last year ,are still so low ;it lm been difficult to hold the cor, ? V teachers together for uny great peof time. In this article it was show at a number of teachers were reeei just about euough salary to keep un ii their living expenses. This mutt' rnislicd the chief topic of discussion ..t the meeting ol the 'board last night. Superintendent Todd jhud drawn up a chart showing the au I uual income, the actual living expenses iand the vacation expenses of the forty j teachers of the city schools; and these I figures gave sufficient reasou for his statement that in spite of the raise in salaries, the city had lost on nil aver age about fitfy per rent of its instruc tors through resignation, mi went on to show that out of a total of 107 teach ers now employed, only 33 were in the field when ho took up the work several years ago. Out of this list, a number have already intimated that they con templated going into other positions. Along with these statements, Superin tendent Todd presented figures to show that normal graduates are becoming "increasingly less" and that the prob lem of filling up the teaching corps next full will be more serious thun ever be- ! fore. I Many Instructors Lost. Further figures went to show that the I system of uniform advunce adopted u) I tlie bonrd last year did not work out in I practice, since it did not prevent the loss of teachers in the higher positions. In the senior high school there were It changes, 14 in the junior high school nud 17 in the elementary ncpooi, i'he fact thut confronts the board uud the district is that the demand at large for the more advanced and capable teach ers increases as the square of their rol- 'ittive standing in the profession, and more resignations limy be expected from this class unjess special provision is made for them. If any further statements were neces sary, Superintendent Todd had figures from the schools ut The Dalles, North Mend, linker, Albany, Eugene, Portland and points in Washington, to show thut Salem, while second to none in rue mat ter of organization mid efficiency, is considerably behind still in tho matter of salaries. In view of this condition, (Continued on page two) fourth loan, the committees distributed to over 22,iWH),WOO subscribers who pur chased in amount of from "( fo sjr?ti, 001) inclusive, the sum of approximnte ly 4,0uii,iiiio.iiiio 0f bonds, ann i mjiu ly good distribution can be realized at this time, a very large ovcr-snnaerip-tion 1s assured. "It should again be emphasized, that it is of the utmost importance, thnt subscriptions for these nqtes should be obtained from the public and not from the banking institutions, whose re sources should be left free to take rare of the commercial neds of the country, particularly, during this peajod of re adjustment from war-time production to oeace-time production, and also to care for any short term barrowings, which the treasury department may need to mr.ke in the future. Attention should be called to the fact, that this Is the last LYiberty loan, and that those peo ple who had heretofore limited their subscription to the amount which ther could pay for in six months time be cause of the probability of another loin within the period, ran now more read ily afford to obligate themselves for a longer period of time.

Asserts Al lies Justified In Demanding Germany Shall Pay For War (BY FRANK (United Press SLaff Correspondent) . (Copyright, 1919, by United Press) Berlin, April 20. The present German government is playing into the hands of the reactionaries and militar ists who expect to overthrow the republic and re-establish the monarchy as soon as the allied armies are demob ilized, Emil Barth, radical leader, charged in an inter view with the United Press today. ISarth, who was a member of the pro visional cabinet, just completed a three months tour of Uormany, studying de velopment and ib'leriiiiiiing the KlieutJlli of the workmen. The threatened monarchist revolution muy be averted, he said, by a populai uprising which would result in estab lishing a proletariat dictatorship. Among other stutciueut made by Piirth was that: (iennany can and should pny for the destruction she wrought. There is already enough food in tier many, if it were fuirly divided. France Is justified in feuriuj; Oer mnuy and demanding that German mili tarism be positively destroyed. President Wilson has been deceived by the present Gorman government. Compromise Mistake, The allies made a mistake, in compro mising with Germany on the Danzig question as the militarists now believe they can get what they want at Ver sailles. Germany ought to nave a '" nictated pence" as it is all sho deserves. "As a result of my intimate observa tions, prophesy ono of two things will happen," said Bath. "There will be a second revolution, either before peace is signed or a a result of the government 'a refusal to accept the entente's terms, resulting: in the establishment of a proletarian die tutorship or tho royalists will innugti rate a counter revolution as Boon as pence is signed. "The monarchists would bring the kaiser, the crown prince and the rest of the royalty back and Oermi:ny would be the same menace to Europe that she was before. Generals Lundendorff and Groener are behind this movement, but General VonVerbeck, who is being daily honored by the Germans as the unde feated victor of the African campaign, is actually the military commander chos en to conduct the counter-revolution. Monarchists Gaining. "Already the militarists are aiming to win over the bourgeoase as well as The loyalist peasant, either with or without the knowledge of the govern nient. (ounting the veteran army a certain to alijjn itself with this move ment, the monarchists can count on at least three million armed supporters. 'The republican volunteer corps, or ganized by the present government is the most corrupt, brutal and dishonor able military body (iennany has evet seen. The men are drawing the normul pay of officer and four mark bonus every time they stand guard. They also have free therater tickets and similar privileges. They serve because they get high pay and good food. They tre given three times the ration that civil ians draw while women and children starve. There would be plenty of food in Germany if it were fairly distiibuted. I beg the entente to investigate and insist that soldiers hvc only trie same amount of food as hungry women tnd children, before sending more supplies to enable the militarists to strengthen themselves. French Fan Justified. "France is absolutely right in fearing Germany and demanding that German militarism be positively destroyed. Pres ident Wilson is completely deceived in the present German government. I say this though I admire him as the great est man of the presenl tfme, "The German whine that we cannot pay indemnities is disgusting. We cm and should pay fur the destruction we have wrought. The wav to pay is tl oust the capitalists who financed the war nd who hold now the bond, ready to sacrifice anything to retain power and drain the Oeraiaa people of i- to ii billions of marks yearly.

DECISION ON ITALIAN CLAIMS TO HAVE GREAT EFFECT ON PEACE PACT By Robert 3. Bender (I'nited Press staff correspondent) Washington, April 22. I'pon the outcome of Italy' fight before tho peace conference for the territories on the Adriatic depends some of the most important and far reaching results of the "Great Peace. " It involves the question of secret treaties, new international thought to ward territorial settlement and final ly it vitally concern the future of Bar on Sonnino, minister of foreign affair in Italy and regarded a the most pow erful reactionary leader in that coun try .today. President Wilson is utterly opposed to Italy annexing Fiunie and will fight against it to the end unless he change his expressed intentions. Premier k lemenceau and Lloyd- George, who entered into the pact of London, promising Italy Adriatic ac quisition are now opposed to Italian aims there, but are embarrassed by their secret treaty, . Hnron Sonnino and to a somewhat lesser extent Premier Orlando insists thnt Italy must attain it Adriatic ob jectives or there will be a revolution. If the Adriatic problem reaches a complete impasse in the peace confer ence it is held likely the president will make a speech or statement outlining his views and count on a supporting re- spouse from tho Italian people to end the deadlock.
