OOVKKNMKNT ANXIOUS TO LEND A HAM>.
L
Ilallfnx, N. S,—Two great Aincrlcac soiipliinos, oriKiiiiilly de.sJKnod to f\\ niniss the Atliuitlc to take thiMr pliioo ns iuTlal cruisers warring on Gorman sulmiarlnos, arrived here at the end ol tlie first St retell of n pcaeeful Joiirne.v across the ocean to demonstrate theli value as [lioneer aerial liners. A lliin' seniilane, the N('-t, wandered fro.n it.- ceurse after falling behind beeaii-.S o- engine trouhle.
The two ll.vinx boats arrived within l(t minutes of each other, the N<"-.'{, I'l ining Command(>r .John II. Towers lender of the transocean voiittire alljrhting gently on the water at the Eastern Passage at 7 :r)5 p. ni., Cann dlan time, or G:ri.'i, New York time (originally bulletined as 5:55 j). m.) The NO-1, navigated and commanded by I.leut. Commander 1'. N. L. liellin ger, fodowed the NC-S on to the water 10 minutes Inter. Both planes seemed to be In fine shape.
The two seni>lane8 which did arrive made a speed of 70 miles an hour for the long trip of 540 nautical miles (equal to (521 land ndles), made against winds which were unfavorable for part of the way and at no time blew directly behind the planes, so aa to add Its force to the speed made by the engines. Were It mM for this fact the seaplanes probably would hare ar¬ rived in much better than the esti¬ mated time of, roughly, eight and n half hours, Instead of eight hours and flfty-flve minutes. The cruising speed of the planes is 63 knots, or 76 miles an  hour.
The success of wireless telephony was platnly proven by the fact that «t no time during the Journey were the Nr-3 and N("-l out of talking radius with land stations and with the three destroyers, McDermut, Klmberly and Delptiy. which were stationed ^t 60 or .TO mile Intervals in the stretch of more than 200 miles of ocean between the tip of Cape Cod and Cape Sable, NuvH Scot la.
The ease with which Commander Towers kept In communication with the land and with his superiors In Washington Is seen by the fact that even such c<nnparatively unlmr-ortiint messages as congratulations from Act¬ ing Secretary of the Navy FrankMii D. Il.)osevelt, and relayed cable assur¬ ances from I-imdnn that every facility of the Hrltlsh n<lnilralty would be of¬ fered to the American airmen, reache<i him. His abilit.v to get last tnlnure weather reports, warnings of sudden storms, etc., gives him a great advan- tutie over his rivals. The N«'-3 and N< -1 were In communication with the cruiser naltlmore, acting as supply ship here for the expedition, lon^; be¬ fore the sharpest eye could see them. They first esia'dished connections when 40 miles away.
'J'he iierforniniice of the two NC boats which reached here made a deep Impression, for the hopes of the Hrlt- Ish airmen are pinned to one engine machines of very liuht weight, while that of the Arjieiicans to the heavy, nuiltl-englned sciiplanes.

Uncle Sam is a<nxioua to lend a helping hand to the young men in his employ and give them a boost to¬ ward better things in his service, and toward a higher place in civil lite. With this end in view, the Navy Department maintains schools in more than a dozen different trades which are open to men who enlist tor ;' the service an warships. The schools not only serve is a medium for the sailor to advance himself in the Navy, hut equip him to learn a good waLJ if the candidate wishes to re¬ turn to civil life.
The courses are offerod to those willing to learn the following trades, electrical, engineering, artificer, yeo¬ man, machinist, commissary, cop¬ persmith, musician, aeronautic, and seamin gunner. Hundreds of young men who enter the Navy take these coiurses and through the work done while they are under pay, gain ad¬ vancement in the service and provide for the time they r<turn to civil life.
There are still further advanced courses in certain of these schools, in which the most competent gradu¬ ates of the trade courses are fitted to bocomo shop foroman, or specialists in the ignition problems and tlu; like. It is safe to say that any yolng man trained in one of these trades and who has practiced it at an air station during his naval ser¬ vice, will always be in demand at good wages in the rapidly expandiuK aviation industry, at this time you will have a good chance to travel and to know the world you are living in- Send in your name and address and we will send you literature giv¬ ing all the facts or call at the Navy Recruiting Station, Post-office Build¬ ing, Bethlehem, Pa.

Paris.—The Council of Four, with Premier Orlando of Italy present, be¬ gan to arrange the program for the presentation of peace terms to the Austrian, Hungarian, and I'.ulgarlan delegates.
It aiipears that Instead of Germany being required to pay the entire In¬ demnity demanded by the allies a con- shlerable sum will be demaiiTTed of Austria, the estimate of this sum at present being 5.imm),0()0,000 crowns (normally nin»roximately $l,()(IO,0tX),- 000).
This Indemnity provision and the de¬ limitation of the frontiers of the new state will be th<' main features of the treaty now In the making. Provision Is   to   be   made   for   dlvldinir   Austrla-

What the Au.^trlan delegation will accomi)lisli Is not clear here at pres¬ ent because of the economic chaos In the former empire. The .-Vnstrlans, however, probably will sign any peace offered, but only for the relatively small part of the former empire which they reiireseiit. One of the many questions to be adjusted Is that of the financial re»i)onslbllity of the new republic forme<l from the old empire for  the  debts of the war.
"The solution of the racial problem," Ilerr Lodgman said, "Is to give all the old [irovlnces with conllicting na¬ tionalities n w frontiers. Later they will be obliged to unite voluntarily be¬ cause their economic Interests will de¬ mand  It."
The Communist government In F'un- gnry Is declared to have declined to accept the terms laid down by Uu- manla for an armistice, and has de¬ cided to continue fighting The terms of the Kumanians included disarma¬ ment and surrender of war materials, and also the return of war prisoners without   reciprocity.

The War Traile Board Issued a 1^ cense   for   the  Thala   shl|>ment.
The Xazarelh .National Bunk, Xaz- uielh, has been authorized by the Federal Reserve Bank to open a TiUst Uepurtmeiit and beginning ou July 1. will be able to act as execu¬ tor, administrator, guardian of es¬ tates, trustee, assignee, receiver, i committee of estates ua lunatics and ; in every other capacity which trust comiianies can act. This will prove a, beuelit to the public a^ the day of the individual executor and adminis¬ trator is passing.
This is a very important expansion of     the     business  oif  this   large  and strong  financial  institution,  which  is one  of  the  best     known     banks     in ¦ Northampton County. ^
A part of the Federal U e- serve Act which has just been passed ¦ provides that .Nationhl Banks exer- j cising any or all of the powers such i as executor, guardian, administra-' tor, assignee, etc., shall segregate all assets held in any fiduciary capacity from,, the general assets of the banii and shall keep a separate set of books showing in proper detail all transactions Such books shall be open to inspection by the Slate au¬ thorities to the same extent as the books of corporations organized tm- der State law which exercise fiduci¬ ary powers. Funds held in trust by the bank awaiting Investment ahwil not be used by the bank in the con¬ duct of its other business unless it shall first set aside In the trust de¬ partment United States bonds or other securities approved by the Federal   Ke&erve  BoW-d.
It ehali be anlawful for any na¬ tional banking association to lend any officer, director oir employee any funds held in trust under the powers conferred by this seiction. Any offi¬ cer, director, or Employee making 6irch loan, or to whoon sucB loan is made,, may be fined not more tSan $5000, or imprisoned not more than five years.
The past two yeaTs were perhaps the most eventful in the history wf the world, making as it did, the closing of the world's greatest con¬ flict, involving on the part of the United States government an army of 5,000,000 men and the flotation of bond issues amounting to over 20 billions of dollars. The Nazareth I National Bank did its share in as¬ sisting the government in floatinr;; the various Liberty Lontis, and th-.> amount of bonds purchased, includ¬ ing treasury certificates, for its own account and for its depositors, am¬ ounted to  $2,976,400.
Notwithstanding the large amount of money paid to the government for Liberty Bonds and treasury certifi¬ cates to helj) finance the war, its assets increased steadily until they now stand at three millions of dol¬ lars.
The present officers are; Dr. Thoe. Cope, Chairman of the Board; M. T. Swartz, President; John A. Miller,! Vice-President; F. H Schmidt. Cashier; Directors, George W I^aub. O. D. Schaeffer, G. A.

On   last Thursday evening the citi¬ zens  of  Nazareth  and   the surround- |

the   Nazareth   Choral .Milchsack   Memorial   Aaditorium   of j the Nazareth  Y.  M.  C.  A., a concert,; made up of htjime talent, such as the . people of Nazareth and vicinity have never heiard.
The   Choral   Society   was   first   or- ; ganized on May  25,  1903, after some | time     it     became  latent  and   it   was ' again re-organiz«d  on Jan.  20,  1919,' the   following  officers     having     been ' electfHl:     president     and     treasurer. Robert  F.  Ziegler;   vice-president,  H T.   Vanatta;   secretary.   Miss   Rae   .M. ; Walter;   conductor,   Ellis  S<hneebeli, i and   pianist.   Charles   Hess      Shortly ! after     re-organizanizing,   the  society j met  weekly  and   under  the direction 1 of  -Mr.  Schneebeli  rehearsed  for  this , great event. |
I      The     soloists,     .Mrs.   H.   C.   Brock- man,   Mrs.   Warre'ii   G'-ary   and   Wm. P.    Gano   deserve   great   credit   and praise    for    the    way in which they rendered   their  part  of  the  program. ' .Mendelssohn     Bartholody's     "Lauda Sion" and Gounod's "Gallia" render¬ ed    by     the    choral  were two of the many  features  of  the evening- ;      The   oboe   solo   rendered     by     M. ; Lachmuth,    of     Philadelphia,     wasi j something   which   pleased   everybody, this  was  because     of     the     way     in i which   Mr.   Lachmuth'   played   the  in-, istrument and beside^s there were few j people in the audience who ever had : i seen  oir heard  an  oboe    ibefore    and | this  was  certainly  a  treat   for  them. ' Last but not least is the orchestra ; which pleased the audience so much. ¦ out   to   American   correspondents   the^pj^^    orchestra    was    made up of 22 !
pieces and rendered selections whicn ; the audience appreciate*! very much. ' this could be beard by the loud and j long applauses.
The hearty support which waB giv-' en by the patrons and friends helped j to make this concert a financial as i well as a musioal success. Follow- j ing is the program

There is a growing feeling here, however, that the pledge to France win be adopted by the American sen- i ate as a sui>plenient to the pence treaty.
