Washington. April 19.— President Wilson tonifrfat called on Uie nation "to finish the job."
In a cabled message from Paris to thr American peoplo the president di¬ rected fhe attention of all to the price of peacei. Happier days are ahead, he declared, "hut to enter, we must ful- tlll to thc utnio-st the engagements we havo  made."
Withotjt a successful completion of the Victory- Liberty Loan, the pres-1 dent saJd. the nation would not have piven the "new evidence of our pur- pfwe."
"I'\ir two anxious years, th^ Ameri¬ can people hiuve striven to fulfill the task of .saving our ci-vilization." the president's mossaffe- read. "By tho ei- j-rtion of unmeasured po-w»>r. they ha-v^ quickly won the victory without which fhey would have remaine>d in the fleld until the last renource had been ex¬ hausted. Bringing to the contest a strength of .>»plrit tnade doubly strong by the rlrtte<->tisne>ss of their cause, they devoted th<*niselves unswei-^'ingly to fhe prosecution of their undertak¬ ing- in the full knowiedijc that no con¬ quest lay in theJr path excepting the conquest  of  rig-ht.
"Today the world stands freed from tho threitt of militarism which has so ions weighed upon fhe spirit and labor of  r>e«lccful   nation.s.

Washinsrton April 19—President Wilson today appealed to the Ameri¬ can public to assist the government in tinding work for returning soldiers, tijjlurs and -war workers.
"In these days of victory, we can make no better offering than that of service to the men and women who have won the victory," the presi¬ dent declared in a public statement cabled to the Whito House from Paris, urging support of the Labor Department's plan for an employment Sunday, May 4. Appeals will be made in thousands of churches on that Uay that all pouslble work be provided tor tbose in the service. The appeal of the president reads as followp:
"The church organizations of the country ha-ving generously united in an ef.urt to assist the employment service of the United States in finding -work for returning soldiers and sailora and war workers, and having designated Sunday, May 4, as employment Sunday, I am happy to add my voice to others In an appeal to our follow countrymen to grfve their earnest and united support to this and ev«ry similar movement.
"I hope that tho people of the country will imlversally observe em¬ ployment Sunday, May 4, as a day for the dedication to the mutual help¬ fulness which -will serve to work out In the months to come the difficult problems of employment and  industrial  reorganixaUon.
"In these days of -victory-, we can make no better offering than that of servioe to the men and women -who ha-ve won the -victory.
(Slgnedl "WOODROW WUSON."
At the same time, Secretary of Labor Wilson asked all so-v«mors and mayors to ofndally proclaim May 4 as "Bmpioyment Stinday" In statee and cities.
"Mindful of the endorsement by resolution of tho -work of the United States Employment Service," said Wilson, "made at the conference of STovemors and mayors held on March 5 in Washington, may I ask that you issue a proclamation or endorsement of 'Employment Sunday,' in order that it may be a successful occasion in your state and city, and that It may mark the inatiguratlon of a morei intensive effort by all our people who have the welfare of our returning flghtii^s men and the country- at heart r'

Paris, April 19.—The delegates of the blR four argued for five hours today trying to reach an agreement over the Adriatic daims of Italy. Little propr- ress -was made and the body will rei- .s-ume its deliberations at il o'clock .Sunday when a flnal decision Is ex¬ pected to be announced.
It is generally understood that the Italians have been informed that they will not be given >"iume. Italy, it is said, is willing to agree to a com¬ promise, makiuR Mume a free port on the condition that the city remains un¬ der Italian sovierelgnty. Baron Son¬ nino presented the Italian claims to the convflfltion.

Threat was Iwlleved to have been met with counter-threat when the "big I four" considered Italy's imperialistic iamWtlons today. While events trans¬ piring In the meeting were shrouded in the greatest secrecj-, it was understood that America, Great Britain and FYance demanded a "show do-wn".

Yale Is Defeated By Pennsylvania
Derby, Conn., April 10.—Eight thousand persons saw the Pennsyl¬ vania eight -win the annual rowing regretta against Yale over the Hen¬ ley course on the Uousatonic river here today. The Quakers, behind the first 200 yards of the race, came to the front and after the flrst quar¬ ter mile were never headed. The Yale crew was three lengths be¬ hind at the llnish. The time was: Pennsylvania, 6 minutes and 20 2-5 seconds; Tale, 6 minutes, 31 2-5 seconds. Penn rowed a,consistent 33 and Yale a 32 stroke.
The Blue second crew defeated the Penn seconds by ^even-eights of a boat length, bettering the Yale flrst crew's time by 4 seconds. The Pennsyivanlan's   lime   was   6   min¬
utes and 30
seconds. Th© coarse
record of 6 minutes 31 2-5 seconds ¦was broken by every crew except the Tale first, which tied it. A heavT current, caused by recent rains, aided the racers materially.

The accident to young Aaron hap¬ pened at 5 o'clock in the aftemoon. Witnesses claim that the automobile driven by Pasquinne was traveliog at a high rate of speed along Scott street when it approached some boys playing in the atreet. Aaron attempted to get out of its path. He ran from the street to the sidewalk. Apparently becoming confused, according to the witnesses. Pasquinne tugged at the steering wheel and sent the automobile up over the curb upon the sidewalk.
Aaron tried to scramble up on the poch of a house at 460 Scott street when tho machine overtook him. The youngster was crushed by the radiator and fender. Several men pulled thhe machine away antl ro.scued the boy. He was unconscious when taken to hie home. Dr. J. U. Bums treated him. Xo bones were broken but internal injuries are feared. The boy's condition -was fa.vorable. last night. It was said that a largo lump h.id appeared on his chest just under his heart, indicating tliat he had been hurt inleriiiilly.

son.  would  not give up  her flght  for racial equality.
Goto -was enrotrte to Waahington to confer with Ambassador Ishii. Later he expects to cnnfer -with President Wilson, either in the United States or Europe.
"Both President Wilson and Colonel House voted with Japan for racial equality at the peace conference." Goto said.
"Japan's sympathy for the League of Nations has been dampened by the op¬ position to this vital Issue. But she, as champion of oriental peoples, will con¬ tinue to exert her best efforts to secure ree»giiition o fthe principle. Japan does not want the United States or foreign nations to Immediately withdraw im¬ migration rostritions. unless they be¬ come eonvlnced that such action would not result in injury to their industrial and economic structurea We. too, have Immigration restrictions to protect our laborers. Our standard Is as much higher than China's as yours is above oiirs."

Referring to the Korean situation. Goto declared that Japan was as willing to grant Korea Independence as the United States is to grant the Philllplnes freedom.
"Korea under Japanese rule has pros¬ pered, aa every impartial observer will admit. The Koreans at present are in¬ capable of self government, but when such a time comes, and It will eventual¬ ly.

On the other hand, Japan is rxvrt - ing pressure to secure intervention In China by all the allies. Geto said, add¬ ing, however, that sbe will take no ac¬ tion without the co-operation of the United Statee.
A Republican China.
"We are interested In the establish¬ ment of a strong govemment in China, preferably republican," Goto declared. "This is necessaiT if Japanese indus¬ trial interests and those of foreigners are to be protected. We cannot carry on our commercial relations under present conditions. Unless order arises from the present chaotic conditions, Japanese interests -will be impaired."
Goto regarded the Tien Tsin affair. In which Japanese and American sol¬ diers clashed in the FYench concession, as of no international importance. Mereb' a street fight araonc ¦oldier?. such as is likely to occur at an.y time, he said.
"The former plnister of foreign af¬ fairs admitted that Japan, like every other nation, has made mistake!', hut refueed to specify just what policies he referred to. except in the Kort^n .'lif- uation. Ho also intimated that .\m- bassador Ishii might not return to the United States. The Japanese govern¬ ment will experience some difficulty in securing a suitable successor to the present ambassador should he not be returned," he added.
