C.
Vaughan,
Chairman
and
President,
Canadian
National
Railways,
has
appointed
Mr.
Grant
to
take
charge
of
the
campaign
which
will
directly
reach
95.000
individuate
on
the
payrolls
of
the
National
System
and
its
affiliated
companies.
The
organization
of
the
CUR.
system
for
the
support
of
the.
Sixth
Vlctoiy
Loan
is
nation-
wide,
with
regional
committees
at
Winnipeg,
Toronto
and
Monc-ton,
co-ordinated
by
a
system
committee
at
Montreal.
-
In
his
statement
Mr.'
Qrant
referred
to
the
objective
arr-nounced
by
Hon.
J.
L.
Ilsley,
Minister
of
Finance,
speaking
of
that
objective
as
providing
a
challenge
to
the
men
and
women
of
the
Railway
organization.
Mr.
Grant
recalls
that
in
the
Fifth
Victory
Loan
campaign
80261
employees
purchased
a
total
of
$3,599,600
in
bonds
and
adds:
'The
record
of
the
Can-
.'adian
National
Victory
Loan
campaign
has
shown
a
consistent
Increase
for
each
respective
loan
in
the
number
of
subscribers
and
the
total
amount
received
and
I
have
every
confidence
that
the
Sixth
Victory
Loan
results
when
tabulated
will
substantially
surpass
those
of
the
last
campaign."
A
very
large
proportion
of
subscriptions
from
system
employees
to
the
last
loan
were
provided
through
payroll
deductions
and
the
vice-president
has
asked
canvassers
to
make
a
special
effort
to
increase
that
proportion
for
the
forthcoming

STOCKHOLM,
April
13
It
Is
reported
here
that
Finland
has
once
again
rejected,
terms
of
Russia
for
a
separate
peace.
The
Finnish
Parliament
was
reported
Wednesday
night
to
have
given
the
government
a
vote
of
confidence
during
secret
session
yesterday
after
the
Premier
had
outlined
the
cabinet's
view
of
the
latest
Russian
armistice
proposals.
By
all
indications
this
vote
meant
that
Finland
had
again
rejected,
the
several
terms.
