"Si, si, signor; how manee?"

bill.
"Help v's£lf, Italy," he offered,
brandishing a whole handful of

The Philadelphia wedge rushed

with uproarous cheers and jeers.

It is understood that M. Scavenius
contended even more emphatically
than did Ambassador Noulens yes
terday that intervention in Russia
was necessary to check the regime
of terrorism there.
New claims, characterized in offi
cial circles as among the most mo
mentous that will come before the
Peace Conference, will be raised by
the self-governing dominions of the
British empire in connection with the
formation of a Eeague of Nations.
Want Single Status
The dominions will ask to be ad
mitted to the league with the status
of individual nations whose sover
elgnty as far as internal affairs are
concurred shall be recognized clearly
by the world, although the right of
Great Britain to control their for
eign relations is admitted.
Canada. Australia, New Zealand
and to a lesser degree South Africa
will ualm the right to enter the
league on the same basis as Belgium
and other similar powers. In some
quarters this is taken to mean that
should the occasion arise the do
minions might oppose the mother
country in the discussion of prob
lems brought before the league.
Canada, Australia and New Zea
land have for several years claimed
for themselves absolute independ
ence as far as the conduct of inter
nal affairs was concerned, but this
principle never has been formally
admitted by England. The domin
ions, U Is sa.d, now will ask for for

trifle hard for the Americans to re-
The Investment Outlook
Tt seems probable that after the war there will be a greater demand for invest-
A ment securities than at any time heretofore. Such conditions warrant the expec
tation of higher prices for investment securities and lower rates of interest. The
recent improvement in the market prices of investment securities reflects the im
proved investment outlook. We do not hesitate to recommend the purchase of
long term bonds or short term notes at present prices.
We suggest for special consideration the following securities<
