It was, however, a question for the Versailles Council to consider, inasmuch as it is purely a military problem. If the body which meets at Versailles is mot to take up and deside questions of this character, what are its functions? If the Versailles Council is supposed to consider and, co-ordinate the military activities of the Allies, what more important problem under this head can there be than one which looks to the check- ing of the Teuton ndvflnce in Russia and to the bringing together of a force on the Bastern front which will put an end to the German with- drawal of troops for useé in the much advertised spring drive ‘in the West? stiece DoErglaiiti S SMO0T’S GUIDING HAND The work to be done by the capital issues committee created in the ‘War Finance Corporation Bill will be greatly -simplifiled and complica- tions avoided by an amendment put into the measure at, the instance of Senator Reed Smooth of Utah. It reads as follows: “Issues of shares or securities heretofore made, only a part of which have been sold or dis- posed of prior to the approval of this act; shall not be affected thereby.’ In other words, issues of stock im process of flotation at the time of the passage of the act will not be brought under. the scrutiny of. the. capital issues committee to determine if the issue is ‘“‘compatible with the public interest.” To give the committee power to stop the sale of_a stock part of which is already in the handy of the public evidently would lead to. great | confusion and uncertainty, a condition that Senator Smoot 8 amendment will obviate. e __(' @- = X When the Normal school appropriation was secured for Bemidji, the for the passage of the appropriation measure, and kept him there for two weeks.

Not on account of it being Duluth but for the very simple reason large quantities of booze have been shipped into this forbidden’ ‘ter- ritory from Duluth in defiance of the law. Keep 'em closed. 1 - S If you are nof a member of the Commercial club, why not? It has been this organization that has accomplished the big-things for Bemidji.

Why can’t you help the Commercial club help you? i P S— Of the eight Socialists sent to a federal penitentiary from Minneapolis for from 20 to 25 years for opposing thq government, six of them were aliens. We're sorry they didn’t get all that was coming to them. The sooner that class of aliens are given their just dues the better it will be for this country.
