Vacant houses are somewhat scarce in New Bern, and persons' desiring to move to another part of the city, and people from out of town seeking a home here, find it a rather difficult task in securing a desirable residence. A year or more ago there. Were lots of vacant houses and in order to keep their houses occupied, many of the property owners reduced the price of rent. However, with the return tof prosperity, the residences are all be ing occupied and the old rentage price is fast getting back to normal prices.

WILSON'S DEMANDS STARTLED THE jVORLD (Continued From Page One) lines of these two contentions will develop the fight for and against the President's proposals both here and abroad. In Entente diplomatic cir cles tonight if was apparent that the President's terms met with little fa vor, although the British embassies declined to discuss the matter for mally. The President's emphasis of "freedom of the sea;" as an essential condition to peace and his comment on the necessity for naval disarmament were looked upon as. a direct chal lenge to Great Britain. It was clear too, that Great Britain will look with little, favor onthese proposals. The demand for "peace without victory" was accepted as in fiat opposition to the Entente policy-as laid down in the. replies to President Wilson's or. iginal peace note. Opposition to the President's terms was not apparent at the German embassy. V The demand for a senate debate f to clarify the peace sentiment , was precipitated by Senator Cummings, bt Iowa. - Soon : after the Senate , met he asked - immediate consideration of a resolution which would authorize discussion beginning Monday,; ; each Senator limited .to one hour. Sena tor Stone, ' chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, objected, vigor ously, declaring that the pressure of business in the , Senate ' precluded a week of debate of the peace situation. He sought to haVe the resolution re ferred to his committee, but it iwas put over for consideration tomorrow. im rni i ot OEZXO 8- Following Prices: $2, $2.50, $3.75 FARMERS TO HOLD MEETING Plan to Secure Loans Under the New Farm Loan System Meet January 27. A call "has been sent out by the American Farm. Finance League for a mass meeting to be held at the county seat of every county in sev eral of the Southern States, which in cludes North Carolina, by all who are interested in securing loans under the new farm loan law system. The meetings are all to be held on the same date Saturday January the twenth-seventh. The meeting in Cra ven county will be held in the office of the county farm demonstrator, Mr. J. W. Sears, in the court house build ing at ten o'clock in the morning. The object of these mass meetings, to be held the same date and hour throughout the nation at 10 a. m. January 27, is to foous public atten tion upon the advantages which the new federal farm loan system offers to investors as well as to borrowers. Thrift savings and other funds in vested in federal farm loan bonds may be loaned, through the new sys tem, upon first farm mortgages. Thus the money will be used to build up the rural community and benefit all local business. People in Virginia will do business through the Baltimore Federal bank; those in the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida, Columbia, S. C, land bank; Tennessee and Kentucky, Louisville bank; Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, New Orleans bank; Texas Houston bank, and Arkansas, St. Louis bank. Farmers who wish to borrow do so through their own local branch of the land bank for their district, which the law calls a national farm loan as sociation. At present, applications for loans to the system far exceed capital available to lend, but as bond secured by these mortgages are sold more money will be provided to, lend. it M Big Feature Picture One of The f Besi Ever Produced Also Shown Tomorrow.

NIGHT, 7:30 ONLY & HOSTESS TO THE 'S Currents Events Department Entertains Other Depart ments. The Current Events department was hostess to the other departments of the Womans Club Tuesday even ing from eight to eleven o'clock at the home of Mrs. G. C. Speight. This was the occasion of their an nual reciprocity meeting. Mrs. G. C. Speight's elegant home was very attractively decorated with potted plants, cut flowers and bam- i ; boo. I The address of the evening was made by Dr. W. W. Pierson, of the ! ritmnrfmpnl- nf TTitnrv at flip Uni versity of North Carolina. Miss Bet tie Windley in her charming manner, introduced the speaker. The subject was "The Relations of the United States and Latin America." This was handled in a masterly way and his hearers were convinced that he is not only intensely interested in this great topic of the day but that he is well informed and capable of doing his special line of work. Dr. Pierson began his readings by saying that there were two. sides to every question. He told of the earlier relations between the United States and Latin America and said it dated back to the time when the United States was principally English colon ies and South America was Portu guese and Spanish settlements but that these relations have grown mor vital and now that the European war j has come about the Monroe Doctrine ! is a world issue. .He spoke of the elasticity of the principals of the Monroe Doctrine and how from time to time it has been added to until at the present" time the United States has practically assured that this prin cipal is world-wide. In the lecture Dr. Pierson explain ed just how the various nations of the world, and especially the Latin American republic have received the Monroe Doctrine, but showed ' that they have been vary glad to" look to the United States for protection in time of trouble. At the conclusion of the lecture the assembled guests were invited into the dining room where a delicious ice course and mints were served by Misses Alice Ward, Charlotte How ard, Pauline Whitehead and Mary Willis, after which they were led through the punch room where they were served with punch from a beau tifully appropriate) ptinch table . by Mrs. W. , H. Henderson, Miss Mary ! Ward and Miss Edna Speight. - , -. There were 'seventy-five guests for the evening. Prof.'J. Henri Bourde lais, Mr.fGW." Horley ' and Mr, H. B. Smith, were special 'guests of the department to meet Dr. Pierson. . . , . t t ... -i in r fact the majority .'of the movie fans for he ' is ' a great favorite here as well as throughout the i country.
