It is recorded in the pages of thousands of Ameri- can newspapers, many of them print- ed in foreign languages, from the largest daily to the smallest country weekly. The newspapers of the coun- try “came across”’ with libertl dona- tions of space In news, editorial, and advertising columns.

The influehce and assistance of all publications in making the loan a Ssuccess are simply incalcuable. Their efforts greatly cdntributed to making 1t & double success in that it was not only largely oversubscribed but the Liberty Loan Bonds were placed in every community in the United States, in cities and in remote coun- try district in mining towns and man- ufacturing centers, among farmers and country merchants as well as city. bankers and-large commercial manufacturing houses. It was a great educational cam- paign. Readers of their county paper in their country homes, and new Am- erican citizens from papers printed in their old language, and others just learning our languge, who in the eve- ning spelled out the news in the great daily papers, were informed of ‘the purposes and objects of the Liberty nature, value, and terms of Government bonds especially the Liberty Loan Bonds of 1917. The whole nation has made a long stride forward in financial educa- tion through the Liberty Loan cam- paign of 1917 as conducted through the press of the country. The country press which without compensation gave liberally of its lim- ited space is equally deserving of praise with the larger papers. In their respective spheres all classes of publications in the country covered their fleld thoroughly and well. The presg of America can look back on the work it performed for the Liberty Loan as a great public service, ably, theroughly, and unselfishly per- formed. Educational Value of the Liberty " Loan Campaign and In addition to the main result, that of selling the two billion dollars bond issue and the equally important result of placing the bonds in every section of the country and among all classes of Americans, the campaign for the sale of the Liberty Loan Bonds has had a great educational value. The people of the United States are much better informed now of their Government's finances and methods of finance than ever before. Hundreds of thousands of people whose idea of Government bonds was vague and in- definite are now not only possessors of Liberty Loan Bonds, but know what a Government bond is and the peculiar worth and value of such securities. They have been informed of what other Governments have done in the way of bond issues, of the wealth of this country compared with its na- tional debt, and the wealth of other nations as compared with their na- tional debts. The campaign has opened and de- veloped a vast market for future bond issues of the United States and has opened up to the American people and made them acquainted with a field of investment they knew little of before. It has given them investments for thelr savings the equal of which they never had before. The newspapers and the banks of the country were great instructors in this campaign. Scarcely a citizen of any town and scarcely a newspaper reader of any sort in the United States but has had the opportunity thrust upon him during the campaisn of informing himself regarding the Liberty Loan Bonds of 1917 in partic- ular, and the United States Govern- ment bonds in general, and the na- ture and terms of - such decurities, and the resources and means back of them. It is believed that this will work 1 well for the sreatness of the nation snd will result in a greater commun- ity of interest among the American people at large. A new and great source of individual interest in the government has been created all over the country. The government is closer to the people and the people have an additional common interest with each other and with the nation as e result of this Liberty Loan Bond sale. The People Have An-we!ul. The American people have made their second answer to their country’s call. The first answer was made on June 5, when 10,000,000 American citizens between the ages of 21 and 30 years registered themselves for national service. This answer, though required by law, was made. with a spirit and willingness that robbed the registration of any taint of compul- sion or servitude, 5 The second answer from the people ‘was registered finally on June 15, and the answer completed that day was entirely. voluntarily subscribed their money to support the United States in the war. This they did, not hysteri- cally, not in a spirit of war fever, but calmly and in the exercise of judg- ment and reason. It is true that the subscribers to the Liberty Loan of 1917 get full value Teceived for. their contribution, but the immense number of small bonds bought shows that it was not the wealthy alone of the nation that supported the Liberty Loan. It shows that it was not the investing public of America alone that bought the brated THE LARGEST-AND MOST GCOMPLETE @reat June S8ale of the Oele- 4 “LEISURE KED ' PUMPS” ‘White rubber sole, low he or Frensh heels.

It shows that the American people subscribed the loan, and that, while many wealthy citizens invested millions in the bonds, a great many more American citizens of small means hastened to do their part. More than this, the lists of sub- scribers show that many citizens of very small means;, perhaps with no capital and no great earning capacity, were willing to stint themselves in order to purchase a Liberty Loan Bond and have a share in the finan- cial support of their country in time of war. The result of the Liberty Loan Bond sale is an inspiration to every American. It has proved the pa- triotism of the body politic. It has shown that behind the fighting men of the nation is the money of the people; that behind the man power of the nation stand the immeasur- able finances and material resources of America. The Liberty Loan of 1917 is a new tle between the government and the people of the United States. Every holder of a Liberty Loan Bond feels more of an American citizen, and along with a sense of duty done and service performed feels an individual pecuniary interest in the government. Each has a certificate of citizenship and something that might be com- pared to a share of stock in the American government. Germany has been answered and the reply is entirely satisfactory to all who love America. There is no mistaking -its volume or tone. It resches across the seas and no cen- sorship can rob it of its significance and strength. ‘The Red Cross Sodlety. In an age charged with bejng selfish, sordid, and commercial there has grown up and .developed the greatest organization for unselfish service the world has ever seen—the American Red Cross.\ The growth of the Red Cross society is evidence not to be controverted that the spirit of service is strong in the hearts of the people of today. The work of the society demonstrates that . there are thousands who are willing to devote their services ta humanity, and the support given them by voluntary con- tributions shows that there are hun- dreds of thousands more who are willing to devote a portion of their means to the alleviation of suffering. The activities of the Red Cross al- ways have been generously supported by the American public, but only since “our own’’ soldiers began to take a place in the trenches alongside our allies has this support become bountiful, It is the mflnrflnx and comfort of the men from. “our own neighborheods” as well as the physi- cal needs of our allies for which the Red Cross must now mobilize, The result—a greater and more impera- tive duty now confronts the givers in America. No: appeal to the generosity of the American people has ever been un- answered. Let one part of the world be visited by some calamity like the Mount Pelee and Italian earthquake, China floods, the Johnstown flood, the San Francisco earthquake or any lesser calamity, and the response from the nation is immediate and generous to a degree. The services of the American Red Cross society to both sides In the Boer war and in other wars was liberal and sacrificing. Fresher in our minds is the work the American unit has been doing in Europe in the last three years, especially the relief given the Belgian population. To ‘mest this' ew ard xmtly en- i larged demand—this demand that has added force of patriotismm and a duty we owe our own soldiers—there has heen a compaign to raise $100,000,000 for the Rcd Cross work. The cam- paign has teen conducted with a vigor and earnestness that insured success. It was participated in by all classes of Americans from the presi- dent of the nation down to the smali- est boy scout, and the women of the nation were particularly active. “Rel Cross week” will not be the only time in which one can assist the work of the society. Elvery week should be a Red Cross week with those who are to contribute to the work of this greatest agency of mercy. Its work is pressing and will caontinue a long time. It needs con- tinued support and will not appeal in vain to a people as generous as the Amocrican nation. RESERVISTS ARE CALLED. Ooast Patrol Men Ordered to Report in New Havexr Sunday.
