The mill owners are purchasing the bonds and are paying cash for them And are then allowing their employes to pay for these on the installment plan. Several thousand dollars worth of the bonds have been placed in the past few. days. City and county officers are now keeping a close watch for the Craven county registrants who failed to show up when called for examination re cently and as soon, as each of these can be located he will be placed un der arrest and sent to some training camp. There are a comparatively, small number of these registrants who fail ed to appear and already a few of them have been taken into custody and sent to camp. With the end of the 1917-18 session . drawing near, Prof. H. B. Smith, su perintendent of the New Bern public schools, states that the term has been the most successful in the history of the' schools and that he is well pleased with the results which have been attained. The attendance has been large and the interest manifest in the school work both by the teachers and the pu pils has been greater than ever be fore and the results which have been accomplished have been very grati fying. The arrangements for the closing are now being made and the- next three or four weeks will be busy ones for the pupils and the teachers. According to advices received in New Bern from Morehead City,"1 a lar ger force of shipbuilders than ever before is now employed in the pftnt of the North Carolina Shipbuilding company at that place and marked progress is being made In the con struction of the boats being built there. Just how long it will take to com plete these boats and' launch them depends upon the success which the builders have in securing men. Re cently this has been a proposition and there has been some delay on this ac count but the work is now moving along rapidly. POTATO CAMPAIGN OFF WITH A RUSH (Special to The Dispatch.) Raleigh, April 20 The potato cam paign in North Carolina is getting under way with a rush. The County Food Administration at Greensboro re ported to Food Administrator Page yesterday that 200 bushels of potatoes were sold at Greensboro Thursday as a result of the campaign and that 500 would be sold Friday as a mini mum. C6L A. H. Boyden, the energetic food administrator at Salisbury, re ported that his merchants in an en thusiastic meeting agreed to take a loss on all potatoes on hand at pres ent and place further orders at re duced prices now prevailing, selling potatoes to consumer at 30 to 35 cents a peck. This means that their margins-will not amount to cost of han dling. "We will sell at cost and charge nothing for handling if Uncle Sam wants us to," was the statement of one spokesman. MRS. J. T.

PEOPLE NOT I 10 E Should Tell Soldiers That There Will Be Plenty of , . ' Supplies (Special to The Dispatch.) WinstonSalem. April 20. That the people of this country are not taking the war seriously enough is the word of warning that came from the Treas ury Department in Washington to State headquarters for War Savings here today. The message in part was: The thunder of the German guns on. the Western front and the victories that they have recently (won from the Allies should arouse eyery citizen of this country as they have never been aroused before. They should feel the importance of the sit uation that our soldiers now hold. "Germany is making a gigantic ef fort to overwhelm the Allies before America gets ready and gets over there in full force. The Kaiser knows that if he giyes America time to build up a big war machine that he is lost The lesson to us. Is plain. We must hurry. We must not delay nor nan dicap the plans of the government. We must deny ourselves everything possible that the government shall lack what It needs and must have to win this war. We must do without everything not necessary to our health and efficiency . in order to release men and material for making ships, shells, cannons, aeroplanes, rifles, army clothing and machine guns need ed by the army at this time to save them from ultimate defeat. More ships, more men, more guns and am munition is what the recent losses they have sustained demands of us, and these at the earliest possible mo ment "Our message to the boys at the front at this hour of supreme effort and anxiety should be an unmistaka ble assurance that they shall not lack anything to prosecute this war to a decisive victory, that our money can tray, we should assure them that guns, ammunition, food and other es sentials shall be coming. Our mes sage should be that we will buy War savings Stamps and Liberty Loan Bonds as we have never bought them before. We will Dut all of onr re sources to a penny behind the boys to win the war. We will invest every cent of our spare money in govern ment securities. In other words, we will assure them that the war situ ation is as serious to us over here as to them over there."

The case of Mrs. Rose Pastor Stokes, the isew YorK socialist leader, who was recently arrested on a charge of vio- ating the espionage act. is expected to be laid before the Federal grand jury which convenes here Monday. The charges against Mrs. Stokes are based on alleged statements delivered in Kansas City and nearby towns and upon a signed communication sent to newspaper in which she declared that "no government that Is for the profiteers can be for the people and I am for the people." Since her arrest several weeks ago Mrs. Stokes has been at Liberty under a $10,000 bond furnished by her husband, J. G. Phelps Stokes, of New York. Women of Russia were wont to live in Asiatic seclusion until the time of Peter the Great, who decreed that they move about freely in the Euro pean fashion. N. . JACOB! .
