TUESDAY EVENING, HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH MARCH 26. 191: a conference with Mr. Kitchtn, chair man of the Ways and Means Com mittee, to-day outlined his plan for the third Liberty Loan. Actual ex penditures of the United States Gov ernment and of the Allied govern ments. having been much less than had been .indicated by the estimates, the amount of the next loan will be cnly $3,000,000,000, the right being reserved to allot oversubscriptions. i "The Secretary will ask authority | from Congress 10 issue bonds bearing | interest at the rate of Hi per cent, i per annum, acceptable at par and ac j crucd Interest in payment cf United Slates inheritance taxes and having the benefit of a sinking fund off five per cent, per annum during the pe l iod of the war and for one year thereafter. "It' is the belief of the Secretary that the rate now proposed is suffi citnt and that, by restricting unnec essary capital issues, and by inducing the people who subscribe for Liberty tends to save and keep them for in vestment, and by purchases with the sinking fund from those who find themselves compelled to sell, future increases in the interest rate may be avoided. In order to put an end to the expectation of higher interest rates it is proposed that the conversion privilege shall be eliminated from the new bonds, but the holders of Liberty bonds of all existing issues will be given an opportunity to convert their bonds into the new 4U per cent, bonds. "In adition to the foregoing princi pal items of the proposed campaign. Congress will be asked for authority for bonds to the amount of $4,500,- I 000,000, in addition to those now au thorized, in order to provide for fu ture issues; for authority to issue ad ditional Treasury certificates of in ■ debtedness; for authority to make ad ditional loans to the Allied govern ments during the summer, and au thority for depot and Income profits taxes with national banks, state banks and trust companies througli j out the United States in the same manner as the proceeds of the Lib ; erty loans. 'I am sure that the people will re spond to the third IJberty Loan with ■ the same loyalty and enthusiasm that characterized their support of the ; first two loans. The great events \ now happening in Fiance must fire J the soul of every American with a new determination to furnish all the dollars and all the material resource i of America that are needed to put j an end to the execrable atrocities of I German militarism. Defeat faces the | Kaiser. Let us hasten it by asserting | America's might with increased vigor lin concert with our gallant com i rades." ! Secretary McAdoo must have the authority of Congress to increase the interest rate from 4 to 4V per cent. He will ask this authority in the form of a bill to be introduced in the Mouse to-day by Chairman Kiteh in. At the same time he is asking permission on this score he will seek authorization for future bond issues up 10 14,500,(10,000. It will be necessary to rush the f>i 11 -if it becomes law before April 6. ! the date set for opening the third | Liberty Loan campaign. Chairman Kitchin upon agreeing to introduce tile bill also promised to call it up 1 for consideration in the House on : Wednesday. " the best Y WOOD URGES ARMY OF FIVE MILLION MEN Send Half to France Now, Military Expert Tells Senators Washington, March 2 .—The | United States should hav* an army of 5,000,000 men under training, and [half that number should be in France. Genera' Wobd has just returned from France and was called before the committee to tell what he thinks ic necessary to win the war. The general gave his views with the authority of one who has given the greatest study to the situation and who bases his conclusions upon personal experience and personal observations. • The genera ldid not criticise the limited program the government is carrying out, but he showed how miserably inadequate it is. As a program to prolong, but not to end, the war it might prove effective, but for the purpose of meeting and overwhelming the tremendous strength o' the German armies, of facing facts and actual conditions an<V dealing with them practically and effectively, it is utterly insuffi cient. The statement of General Wood fell, upon the ears of senators al ready convinced that the United States is not yet preparing to do its part in the war and that the great battle for civilization and the pre servation of liberty and democracy is being fought without effective as sistance from the United States. United States Too Far llelilnd These senators realize that what the' United States is doing may aid eventually in gaining decisive vic tory for the allied cause, but at the rate the United States is going it will be a deferred victory and one that must depend chiefly upon the strength of the allies and upon the waning strength of the allies and upon the waning strength of the Germans. General Wood would have the United States prepare to force vic tory by the magnitude of its own forces, and do this with the least loss of time, which would also mean the least loss of life. Respecting the situation on the French front. General Wood said that there is no immediate danger of a German victory. This opinion was repeated by Gen eral March, chief of staff, who de clared there is nothing in the de velopments thus far to cause any feeling of uneasiness. Notwithstanding these assurances, there is a general uneasiness, which the president attempted to allay by sending his telegram to General Haig expressing confidence in the British armies. The general feeling in the senate is that America must wake up. "England's-fight is our fight, for every man our ally loses now we must supply three more to take their place, for every shell she fires into the German hordes now we must be prepared to fire three more when our turn comes, for every square mile of civilized land wrestled by the Hun to-day we must set our tectli to regain three Square miles later. I .speak contrasting our popu lation and resources with those of England. It is our manifest course to take up the burdens our allies can no longer hold and to make good as soon as possible the three years' deficit we o%ve the allied cause." The need for Anglo-American solidarity in the present crisis ex pressed to-day by senators from widely scattered states was focused in the above words by Senator Mc- Cumber, of North Dakota. Peeling the utter impotence of America at the present time that the safety safety of the standards of liberty rest entirel ywith the permanence of the hard-pressed British line the fonts of sympathy for England In her present agony were opened wide at the capitol to-day. JCxoept for admiration it was all that the capitol would give. "From now on we have got to use the iron hand at home as well as abroad." said Senator King, of Utah with whom rests principle credit for laying bai- the treacherous activities of the German-American Alliance. "The time for patience with those elements in our midst, who would put themselves on the German side, is at an end. There are just two sides now, the friends of Germany and her enemies. Those who would work against our government now are her friends and we must treat them as we would treat Germans on the battlefield.*' Senator King added not a moment should be lost in combing out non essential production and linking up the entire man and woman power of the nation to one or another form of essential war activity. Between 18 anil 05 Years "If necessary," he said, "every man in the nation between the ages of 18 and 65 years should be regist ered and wnen needed conscripted into some form of war work, either in the shipyards, on the farm or in munition factories. The wealth concentrated in private hands should be as freely drawn on to pay the bills. Soldiers, ships, shells, money and food must all be pro vided by us in quantities now. It is high time we get busy turning them out." Senator Frelinghuysen. of New Jersey, took the stand that Amer ica must wake up in good earnest now. not only to do some active work in assisting the allies, but as a measure of necessary self-defense. He pointed out that should the Ger mans break through, rolling up the British on the north and the French on the south, it would be with France a question of separate peace or annihilation. Such, a victory, he thought, would mean the virtual end of allied resistance In Europe, and would be followed b*' a demand from Germany that America pay huge indemnity. "I don't think this will happen." said Senator Frelinghuysen, "butf it isn't at all visionary, and, in line with the many unexpected things which have come about during the last year, we certainly ought to be prepared for such a contingency." He advocated that the shipbuild ing program be enlarged and every effort made to speed up production, that warship construction be rushed and that the defenses along the At lantic and gulf coasts he put Into shape for immediate action.

HUN SHIP CUT IN HALF AT DUNKIRK BY DESTROYER Grim Fight Followed Discov ery That Enemy Was j Shelling Coast By Associated Press London, March 26. —In an en- | gagement between allied and enemy ; destroyer squadrons off Dunkirk last Thursday, the British destroyer ' Botha cut a Olrman warship in half / and took a leading part in the fight, although her main steam pipe had | been severed by a stray shell. i Early last Thursday morning the ! British destroyers Botha and Morris i and the French destroyers Capitaine | Melil. Mason and Bouclier were pa- j trolling the eastern waters of the j English channel when they heard i enemy ships bombarding the coast i of Dunkirk. They fired star shells I which had the effect of silencing the i bombardment and scattering the j enemy. The destroyers started in pursuit j of the Germans in a northwesterly direction and discovered eventually that the enemy ships were making for their base. A grim little fight en sued. according to the stories of eye witnesses. Sank German Vessel None of the German torpedoes found a mark, but the Morris, emerging from an enemy smoke screen, cut off a Gerjnan destroyer . of a large type and torpedoed her | at a range of 500 yards. There was | an explosion in the enemy vessel and | she sank immediately. Meanwhile, the Botha had been I crippled and she began to lose her I way. The crew determined to do I what damage they could and fired both their torpedoes at the two lead ing enemy boats. Then her helm having been put hard over, the Botha rammed another boat cleanly amidships, cutting the enemy vessel in half. Swinging around the Botha at- j tempted to repeat the ramming i maneuver on the next German , astern. The enemy craft, however, i eluded the effort of the crippled ! Britisher, but only to fall a victim to j the French destroyers. Ablaze, the German boat lay disabled while the I Frenchmen pounded her with tor pedoes and gunfire. 18 Run Craft in Raid The Morris lost the rest of the quarry in the mist and took the lame Botha in tow. while the French destroyers circled around, picking up prisoners. From the statements of prisoners it appears that eighteen German craft participated in the raid and when they fled from the French coast, leaving three of their number behind, they were attacked by a British naval air squadron, which pelted them with bombs and scattered them in disorder in all di rections. Two German destroyers and two German torpedo boats were believed to have been sunk in the action off i Dunkirk, according to an announce ment made by the British Admiralty of March 21. It was said no allied vessels were sunk and that one dam- ; aged' British destroyer had reached j port. 29 Years Superintendent of Lebanon County Schools i Annville.
