suffered    hardships   on    the    battle fields of France.
Did they quit! They did not. And they aro not quitting now- Neither did you while we were win¬ ning the war.
Well, are you going to quit now— when the the war is won? Our Job , tan't flnished yet—^not by a long shot, and its a man-size job, too— It we are going to turn our victory to real account. If we are going to ni4ke trom it a more prosperous America and a better world to live in.
We have flghting men to bring home and flnd Jobs tor. We have our wounded to care for and our crip¬ pled to rebuild into confident, suc¬ cessful citizens. There is still work for our fighting men to do in Europe, It we are to gain from our victory tbe kind of world we hare been flghting tor.
It's a big job!    It we loaYe it un¬ finished    now—when    tho end is in Bight—Chateau    Thierry    and     the Meuse will have been fought and won In vain.    There's a bill ot some bil¬ lions ot dollars to clean ott the slate —betore wa ean oftll It a day and en¬ joy the new world that we hare won. The  local  tommlttee Is  trying to arrange from time to time    during ,  the campaign which cloeeg May  10, '  to have boys who hare seen service In France to give short talks to our citizens.    Theee boys, many ot them ,1ust recovering from serious wounds, l^'fiave volunteered  to act  as  Victory AiLoan    speakers.    At    thia    meeting r Commandant   Hinkle,  of  Easton,   of the Salvation Army, will spealc.

German    Menace    Destroyed   by   Yan. kee  Ingenuity. British  Pluck and Team  Work of the  Al¬ lied  Fleets.
New Vork.—llow (lernian siibmanne warfare was (inally stojiped wa«< de¬ scribed In deiail by Uear Admiral Wil¬ liam S. Sims, U. S. N., ill nil adiln-s.-i at a liirulieoii niveli by tlie Uoml Club here.
AecnrdliiK to tfie eonipr.tatloii of 'he fleet conniiaieler, ti.ere are now lying nt the bottom of lhe sea 'J(l."i Cerman submarines. "1 recojinize that the re¬ ception you linve accorded me Is not due to nie personally, but to i' • posi¬ tion I occupy und tc tlie i-esuUu ¦ activ¬ ity of tbe navy abroad," be suid. "A navy rannot be rapidly improvised. When n war Is declnred It Is too late to liulld more ships or to provide per¬ sonnel. You have been tbrouj,'b a pe¬ riod of great daiis;or and you applaud not tbe man at tlie top, but the navy lt.<;plf.
"When you shoot a snhmariiie you usually get three or tour men who hap¬ pened to occupy the conniiii.. tower, for they usually sh'tt the lid a.* the Riilimarlne goes town und bubbles come to the surfa-e ll. u circle. We fomid many sulimarlnes stuck,on the bottom, with Indications showln;; that inaiiy of the men cauyhl inside ot lier (¦ill er commlttej suicide or killed each ¦ tber. Altogether I may say that there are 20,"> German submarines at the bot¬ tom of the soa.
"The band of water across tbe Eng¬ lish channel between Soapstoiie nnd P.oulogne, across which millions of tons of jupplies and hundreds of thou¬ sands of men were carried during the war. was so well patrolled by destroy¬ ers that not ona lit* was lost It wns suicide for a German submarine to ap¬ proach that busy laue. Most of the destroyers hnd to be kept with the grand fleet for fear that the German fieet might come out, and this reduced the number available for transport duty. We were always short of de¬ stroyers, which kept those on convoy duty constantly on the jump. Rut the spirit of the destroyer people never let up, as I sometimes feared it would, nor did they ever let up once on rhe work demanded.
"In April, 1917, the situation was most serious. In fnct, I am free to confess thnt we were frightened. It was only the absolute co-operation of all the naval forces—American, Brit¬ ish, French and Italian—that saved the situntlon. When we crossed the Atlantic nil questions of national iiride nnd personal ambition had to be sup¬ pressed. When our tleet wus com¬ bined with the liritish tleet, so much more powerful than ours in all re¬ spects, I said to Admiral Rodman: '.See how quickly you can make our ships I.rltlsli ships." And this was done. All of our own methods were put below and stayed there until the war was over. We were successful In the war only because onr submarine craft were able to turn down the sub¬ marine menace and because the Ger¬ man fleet wa« compelled to remain In port. And this success wns posaible because the grand fleet was there, re- enforceil by the American fleet.
"If, (luriiifT the early (Ierman drive, the Germans had reached Paris and Paris had siurrendi'red, the wnr would not have been over, for the Germans would never have bad a ship on the seas. The navnl forces would have maintained the blockade, and the Hun wonld eventually have been forced to -ive back all be had won nnd to sur¬ render in the end, ns he actually did."

PRESID[NT WILSON SOON COMING HOME
Will   Sail   by   May   20—When
Treaty has Been
Signed.
Paris.—It Is stated in well Informed quarters that the situation of the peace negotiations Is such that President Wilson probably will be able to sail homeward Mny 20 and possibly a Ilttle earlier—by'May 15.
The belief was expressed that the President wtuld call an extra session of Congress to convene between May 15 and Tun • 1.
The present indications are that the peace treaty will be signed before the President's departure. Information reaching the delegates tenda to show that the Germans are aot planning to take up time and delay the signing of the treaty, as they desire a settlement of the peace terms at the earliest pos¬ sible moment.
The Polish-German boundary ques¬ tion has been flnally disposed of by the Council of Four. No announce¬ ment was made of the decisions taken, but It Is understood that Danzig will be Internationalized, white the Poles will have a corridor running from that city' to their frontier to give them access to the sea.
The most Important remaining ques¬ tion to ba settled Is that of Jugo-Slav and ItnllaL claims In the Adriatic. This matter will come up soon, with Baron Sidney Sonnino, the Italian for¬ eign minister, probably present to set forth the Italian case. It is said that the Council of Four intends to settle this conflict at once.
Military experts, under the direction of Marshal Foch, have been charged w'th the drafting of a report on what should be done In the event that Ger¬ many refuses to sign the treaty of peaee. It Is Indicated that the meth¬ ods of coercion which the allies would adopt amy incluile the occupation of more Oernian territory, the blockade of enemy iiorts and tbe discontinuance of the dispatch of food suiiplies to Ger¬ many.
Tbe council lg now occupying Itself chiefly with the question of the dis¬ position of Flume and tbe problem of Danzig.
It has developed that, contrary to the plan originally contemplated, there will be no German text of the peace treaty.
The naval terms to be incorporated In the peace treaty concerning the Kiel canal and Helgoland bave been re¬ vised In several imiiortant particulars.

The situation is much the same as It was ut Budape:st a few hours after the Railicals took control. The polic¬ ing of the city has been taken over by the Volkswebr. The parliament building Is now occiiiiled by two bat¬ talions of soldiers atter representa¬ tives of tho .Soldiers' Council had placed ,"j,0(HJ men al the government's disposal with the understanding that tlie police would be dispersed.
The soldiers are commanded by Col. Stoessel Wimmer, who takes orders from tbe Soldiers Council, which Is either Socialistic or <!"ommunlstic.
Col. CunninErhnni, In the name of the Allies, has Issued a proclamation de¬ claring that If there are further dis¬ turbances the food supply will be cut oft. B'or that reason serious trouble Is unlikely.
Men famllar with the situntlon still contend it would be easy to handle the situation through limited occupation by allied trooj-s and also through the guarding of the frontiers of Poland and the Ukraine. Tliey assert thnt with the help of (^>en. I'etlura's forces the hordes from M_oseovi- thus could be kept out.
Two demonstrations were started during ths week, the outgrowth of sev¬ eral Coinnuiiiist meeiings, which were lightly atiended by Austriahs.

It Is significant that the outbreak happened at the time of the visit of Joseiih PoKiiny, reputed to be the rul¬ ing chief of the Hungarian Communist OoTernnient, and other Hungarian offl- einls, who are said to realize that it will be imiiosslble for their plan to aueceed  unless with  Austrian aid.
