President Hsu Expected to
Restore Peace in China
Washington, Sept. 24. Hope is
now felt here that the settlement
of the civil strife which has para
lyzed the commercial development
)f China may follow quickly the
inauguration of the newly elected
sresident, Hsu Shih Ching October
5 10. From the united China which
then would arise would come a com
mercial addition -to the military
itrength of the allies.
Hsu Shih Ching has laid down
six principles which will constitute
his platform. These have been com
municated to officials in Washington,
who expreessed confidence today
in the new president's ability to
execute them.
Hsu Shih Ching is about 62 years
old and a civilian. He is said to
be acceptable to both of the mili
tary factions which now rule north
and south China and cannot agree
upon any of their own leaders as
the proper man to restore peace in
China.

U. S. Senate Cheers Address
By Ambassador of France
Washington, Sept 24. Determin
ation of America and the allies to
use only the argument of force until
Prussian militarism shall have been
forever crushed, was emphasized in
addreises delivered today in the
senate by Ambassador Jusserand of
France and Vice President Marshall.
The occasion was the presentation
of vases to the senate by the French
government in appreciation of the
reception accorded the French mis
sion that came to welcome America
into the war.
Ambassador Jusserand said the
free nations are in the war "until the
last gun is fired" so as to "make
good for the world the American
declaration' of independence." Mr.
Marshall said America was de
termined to- fight on not only to
avenge the wrongs done to France
and other nations but until Bethle
hem shall prevail over Berlin."
In the galleries were members of
the French foreign legion, while
friends of the president's family oc
cupied the executive section.
A committee of senators escorted
Mr. Jusserand to the rostrum be
side Mr. Marshall. In closing his
address the ambassador spoke of the
unusual honor accorded him in being
given the privilege of addressing the
senate. Members and attaches of the
upper house said they believed it
was the first time that the ambassa
dor of a foreign country had ad
dressed the body.
Addresses of both Ambassador
Jusserand and the vice president
were received with unusual demonstrations.

cated that wealthy corporations and
persons of large means had not re
sponded ' "commensurately with
their abilities to help." He pointed
out that of the 18,000,000 Americans
who subscribed for the last loan,
only 22,500, including corporations,
bought bonds in excess of $10,000.
"It would be preposterous," he
said, "to say that there were only
22,500 'men, women and corpora
tions in America able to lend more
than $10,000 each to their govern
ment in Liberty bonds."
Denounces Swindlers.
Mr. McAdoo also condemned the
practice of "swindlers and unscrup
ulous and unpatriotic people, who,
contrary to the urgent request of
the Treasury department, had in
duced holders of Liberty bonds to
exchange them for stocks or invest
ments of doubtful value "
He pointed out that these opera
tions forced .the treasury to buy the
bonds thus thrown upon the mar
ket, in order to protect the market
and the credit of the government.
Asserting that "everybody should
buy bonds,' Mr. McAdoo continued:
"Wages and salaries are higher in
America today than ever before in
its history. Those who spend every
thing they earn are not only living
in a fool s paradise, but they are
doing a grievous injury to their
country. Every dollar saved now
and invested in Liberty bonds will
be worth much more when peace
comes again.
"What we must do in America is
to keep the pressure high. Now
that we have the kaiser and his
brutal hordes on the run, let us not
relax effort, but intensify effort.
"No man can shirk his duty with
out incurring the just reprehension
of public opinion," concluded the
secretary.

profit of the patriotic work of the
young girl, paying her less than a
decent living wage.
Mothers' Great Work.
To the public school teachers
Miss Slattery paid the greatest trib
ute, thanking them for the patriotism
they have taught our foreign-born
children and laying upon them the
greatest responsibility for the fu
ture. To mothers Miss Slattery
said she envied their opportunity
to make the greatest of sacrifices
for their country. "I used to pity
you mothers," she said, "but now I
think you are the most blessed of
women."
Girls were urged to keep them
selves clean in thought, word and
deed, to to make this country worth
coming back to by the boys who
have gone to defend the cause of
liberty.
"I am not afraid for the red stripes
of "courage," said Miss Slattery, "nor
that we will soil the pure blue of
our loyalty, but, O, sometimes I do
fear for the white of our purity.
Keep that clean and spotless, girls,
whatever else you do."
Girls Sign Pledges.
Cards were left in the seats con
taining the pledge of purity and loy
alty that is taken by the girls of the
patriotic league. Also cards which
the girls were asked to fill out and
sign signifying their willingness to
take this pledge and do their part
to help win the war.
These cards are to be sent the
War Community Service in the
Omaha National Bank building or
handed to the principal of the near
est high school.
Miss Slattery was introduced by
Commissioner Dean Ringer, in the
absence of Mayor Smith, who is out
of the city. The invocation was
delivered by Rev. A. A. DeLarme.
Dr. Hugh A. Knowles led the
community singing, which preceded
the address, the girls making the
auditorium ring with the hearty
chorus of young voices.
Miss Slattery is a quiet speaker,
making no gestures but talking with
deep earnestness and appealing di
rectly to the hearts of the girls
to whom she speaks as if address
ing but one rather than a large audience.

Amsterdam, Sept. 24. The reichs-
tag faction of the social democratic
party resolved at a meeting yester
day to approve participation of the
members of the party in a new gov
ernment which may be formed
under certain limitations, according
to advices from Berlin. The con

that many of the 3,500 members of
the American Bankers' association
in attendance at the 44th annual
convention here may reach their
homes in time to take part in the
opening of the Fourth Liberty loan
campaign, the convention will close
on Friday night instead of on Sat

it has been decided to adopt the
proposition by unanimous consent
at the first regular meeting of the
association as a whole which will be
on Thursday.
ENEMY'S FRONT
IN MACEDONIA
CUT TO PIECES
(Continued From Page One.)
reconstitute his front to the north
with its center resting possibly on
Uskub or thereabouts. Even if such
a maneuver is possible doubtless it
will be necessary for the enemy to
straighten his line westward through
Albania to the Adriatic sea.
That the allied flanks are moving
swiftly to prevent the separated
armies from joining up is indicated
in the capture of Prilep and the ad
vance of the British to the north of
Lake Doiran. These maneuvers
point to an attempt a' rolling up
movements of great proportions by
the allies.
Advancing on 20-Mile Front.
London, Sept. 24. The allies are
advancing on a front of 20 miles in
Macedonia, close on the heels of the
first and second Bulgarian armies,
which are retreating in disorder.
The Serbians, according to news re
ceived in London today, are within
seven miles of Prilep on the south
east, while the British, after the cap
ture of the town of Doiran, are ad
vancing to the north on the east
side of the lake. Strong bodies of
Serbians have established them
selves on the eastern bank of the
Vardar between Demirkapu Pais
and Krivolak and are covering the
passage of the main body of the
Serbians. Cavalry are feeling their
way across the plain towards Lipa
and Kaliyan.
The Serbians have achieved a not
able success in the capture of the
formidable Drenzka massif, a great
natural defense to Prilep. The Ital
ians have captured another impor
tant height on the Monastir front,
known as Lioboshte, giving them
observation near Selecha plain to
the Cerna river.
Greek and French troops operat
ing on the British left have reached
Gurinchet, a few miles west of Var
dar. Thus far between 11,000 and
12,000 prisoners and 140 guns have
been counted.

race around an almost perpendicular
wall on motorcycles and in automo

A real exhibition of "horse sense"
is displayed by Madam Irene s Arab

The Coney Island side shows offer
many riding devices and scientifically

Liberty Show presents a clean and
eccentric showing of dancing and
hieh class stunts.
Turner's Wonderland and the

entertainment.
The riding devices include the

of which both children and grown

Huge Kitchen to Feed
Troops in Paris, Is Plan
Paris. Sept. 24. Victor Boret,
minister of provisions, will intro
duce a bill in Parliament authorizing
an advance by the government up to
250,000,000 francs for the purpose of
organizing co-operative restaurants.
It also will provide for the creation
of a central kitchen where rations
will be prepared for all troops in
Paris. These are measures which
Mr. Boret hopes will eradicate the
increased cost of living.
If the scheme proves to be prac
tical, a similar central kitchen will
be created for poor civilians.
Bicycles Curtailed.
Washington, Sept. 24. Curtail
ment of the manufacture of bicycles
and accessories was announced to
day by the war industries board.
Men s bicycles are to be made here
after only in 20 and 22-inch frames
and women's models only in 20-inch
frames and the manufacture of rac
ing and juvenile models and many
accessories is discontinued entirely.
Plan to Raise Eight
Billion by Taxation
Endorsed by Senators
Washington, Sept. 24. In begin
ning revision of the house $8,000,
000,000 war revenue bill today the
senate finance committee virtually
decided to make no substantial re
duction in the aggregate tax levy
proposed.
Among members of the committee,
Chairman Simmons said, there was
little opposition to the plan to raise
by taxation one-third of the $24,
000,000,000 it is estimated the gov
ernment will need this fiscal year.
Increased estimated expenditures
for the army, Senator Simmons said,
have caused abandonment of most
of the sentiment against such a large
tax levy.
Big Plans to Boost
Inter-Church War Fund
Made by, Catholics
Chicago, 111., Sept. 24. Fourteen
provincial conferences of Catholics
have been called between October

The call for these conferences
was issued yesterday by the Na
tional Catholic War council from
its national headquarters.

Success of Foch's Strategy
Conceded by German Paper
London, Sept. 24. (British Wire
less Service.) The entente allied
sut .esses in France, Macedonia and
Palestine have led the Cologne Ga
zette to anxious consideration re
garding future military develop
ments. "We must do Foch the justice to
say he is apparently beginning to
obtain on a big scale that strategi
cal unity he has already obtained
on French soil," says this leading
German newspaper, and it concedes
that the prosecution from all sides
of an offensive against the alliance
of the central powers would be a
master stroke. Having mentioned
the superiority of the allies in men
and material, it continues:
"We have already pointed out the
enviable secrecy observed in the
manufacture of armored tanks and
the training of their crews, which
now number not thousands but tens
of thousands. To these must be
added the increase in the number
of guns, mine throwers, flame pro
jectors, machine guns, gas and fog
ammunition, and airplanes of all
kinds. German industry is unable
to accomplish this in similar quantities."
