NOT TOO LATE
TO
BE A PATRIOT
MANY of the best people in Bexar County have
sut <r;bcd for an amount of Victory Bonds
which they thought at the time would be enough to
put the county OVER THE TOP.
THE committees have accepted these subscriptions
with the same belief.
NOW after two weeks of sacrifice and the hardest
kind of work on the part of cicht hundred pa-
triotic men ar.d women we face the CERTAINTY OF
DEFEAT UNLESS those who have already done what
they thought to be necessary are willing to raise their
estimates and increase the amount of their subscrip-
tions.
’J’HIS means you must subscribe again.
THE LAST CALL—-
WHAT SHALL WE DO?
WE CANNOT bring ourselves to believe that the
people of Bexar County do not want to pay
their debts.
ABOVE alt that debt wh: h was made for the pur-
pose of securing the safe return of the boys who
I offered their li- es th*t we might live in security.

Pari*. May 10.—Will Germany sign
I the peace treaty? That is the question
I rverybody is asking. America must
’ vender at this question since it would
I sccni that Germany being vanquished
wnuul accept such terms aS the allies
• offer especially since the basis of the
। peace was agreed upon in the armistice.
But from Germany’s point of view the
I allie* have m-t adhered to the termsand
principles agreed upon. The Germans
cite the fact that in the recent relations
between the various allied commissions
' ami the German representatives the
- allies were put in an cmbara*>ing posi-
j. tion by being constantly obliged to
. c apologize for not having kept their
n word.
An example of this was the failure
of the allies to begin to revictual Ger- i
many until March when they had ।
. greed to begin in January. The reason ।
„ was that M. Kiotx the French minister |
of finance opposed the action because
Germany was to pay for the food in j
cash which he wi*hvd reserved f«»r the
payment of damages. At a large secret
meeting of the conference in March
J Prcnib r Lloyd George made an impas-
l.'l appeal t > Premier Clemenceau
aring that M. Klotz' action was im- •
H'riling tlm honor of the allies. This <
*pce*h b: ought the long promised ac- f
i l: ' n - . f
>< If-Dclcemination Pledge Ignored. ।
An- rhcr examide given of the allies* E
fail in* t » live up to the principles
agrceil upon is the incorporation in the
damag. * a«*v**«'d of targe items such as t
pensions which are quite outside the t
legal meaning of the damage clause in v
■•. A so such <
articles as the impliKl enforced sepura- [
tion of German-Austria from Germany j
•land the veiled annexation of the Saar T
1 basin by France are both contrary t-» •
the »elf-determination of peoples. In ad- ;
dition the Aiermans will >how that the ;

the people' be nefit. They have descended into personal vitupe-
ration f l 'hoods and the lowest kind of blatherskite. “Whom
the gods Ui h to ck-stroy they first make mad.” Nobody iM
excited cx<c*pt the? administration's hanger.s-on special favor
seeker and the e who always “bend th<* pregnant knee that
thrift may follow fawning.”
Th.q p’oplc arc cool and will administer such a rebuke to
these rn’i-; lingers ..n Tuesday May 13th as will never be for-
gotten hi San Antonio politics.
Mud f lush Slander Blatherskite will never win this election.
People rc.ent the un-American spirit and unfair slush throwing

Vote for dean men making a clean campaign on clean
issues.
Vote for Joseph Ryan for Mayor anc! Messrs. W. A. Black
