The Oregon and Wyoming land fias- cos described In this #8ue are not ex- actly creditable to a nation that, prides itself, above all else, on its Wtisiness efficiency. The machinery jammed somewheré—what machinery thére was —for when faiths go to séventy-nine men out of 170,000, who exhibit enough snterest to write to Washington about the land, then it is evident too few wheels are grinding. To the returning soldier his familiar Americs took on the aspect of an El Dorado. He reapproachéd it with something of the practical idealism of the emigrant.

HANG ON TO YOUR LIBERTY BONDS The succéssful flotation of five great War loans gave the American public a more Intense and personal interest in its own goverhment than it had ever had before. It made investors out of millions of men and women who had looked upon stocks and bonds as the prerogat and playthings of the wealthy. We have become a nation of bondholders—not bloated ones, either. _Millions of dollars’ worth of Liberty Bonds were bought by men in uniform by allotments. The system was honest and reliable, but it was not exactly speedy.
