HOW A $50 BOND WILL HELP NATION It Will Provide Shells, Gasoline, Masks, Uniforms, Coal, Etc. - Washington, Aug. 28—The proceeds of one fifty-dollar Liberty Loan Bond will purchase: Thirteen 18-pounder shells for de- stroying submarines. Four 5-inch shells for the same pur- pose. One hundred pounds of smokeless powder. Eighteen gas masks for a like num- ber of soldiers at the fronv. Enough coal to drive a 120 miles. Emough gasoline to drive a subma- rine destroyer 150 miles. A sailor’s uniform outfit. Four months,subsistence for .a sol- dier. “The Second Lberty Loan of 1917” will be the official name of the second issue of the Liberty Loan. Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has issued a public statement warning the public against recurring unreliable reports regarding the \next Liberty Loan purporting to give information as to the date, amount, and other de- tails relative to the issue. He states these reports are merely speculative and the public should not be misled by them; that these matters have not been determined upon, and as soon as they are settled official announce- ment will be made; in the meantime unofficial reports should he regarded as unfounded. There is only one thing certain about the financial and commercial condi- tions that peace is going to bring and that is their uncertainty. Tt may be destroyer upon us; it may be an era of stagna- competition we hve ever experienced It involves a paradox, but in thi present time of comparative commer- cial peace, for the great war has large- ly stopped for a time the struggle among nations for foreign commerce, it is a wise thing to prepare for the economic war that will succeed present world-wide war. 1t 1s well for every American cltizen to lay aside in some absolutely safe security something for that day that is coming. If it be great prosperity one will be able to take advantage of it. If it be stagnation one will be better able to withstand it. No better provision could be made for the future than an investment in Liberty Loan Bonds. They are abso- lutely safe and no possible condition can destroy their value; exempt from all taxation except estate or inheri- tance taxes the income from them cannot be lessened: With a market everywhere in the United States and, as competent financial authorities as- sert, a market In every commercial center in the world when peace comes, they will be readily convertible into cash. They possess all of the cle- ments that would attract a sound in- vesting mind in times of uncertainty. More than that an American citizen investing in Liberty Loan Bonds is investing in victory for the proceeds of the Liberty Loah Bonds are to win the war and and peace and safety to the rest of the world. Uses of the Liberty Loan. It is a mistaken notion that all of the moncy raised by the sale of the GREATEST OF that an era of great prosperity may be | tion; it may be an era of the severest | the bring peace in Europe | Liberty Loan Bonds which is to be used for war purposes will be an eventual loss to the United States and its people; that it is all to be spent for things used up in war or useless except for purposes of war. It is well to remember that a great deal of the money raised by the sale of Liberty Loan Bonds is to be invested in things that will be of great use and value to the nation when peace shall be de- clared. One thing that most people realize Wwill be of value Is that it is going to put this nation in a state of prepared- ness. While it is hoped and believed that the end of this war will be the ending of all great wars it will be a valuable thing to America {o find her- self at its close prepared to enforce the just decrees of peace. There may be a twilight zone between the close of this war and the establishmnt of peace all over the world and prepar- edness will place America in a posi- tion to have that voice in the world s that this nation is worthy of. We know that voice will be for peace and justice and freedom. Milllons are to be spent in the con- struction of merchant ships and these, at least those that escape de- struction in war, will be a valuable in- vestment. Therc will be a tremendous demand for merchant ships when peace comes and, whether the United States continues to own and operate this merchant marine or whether the ships are sold to private individuals, the money invested in them by the United States vill he no loss to the na- tion. It may be a great gain to it. Tn the revival of foreign commerce, in the contest for foreign markets, the | United States will no longer be at the | mercy of foreign ship owners. We can | do our own carrying trade and our | commerce will have a fair chance In | the foreign markets. | Billions of this money raised by the sale of Liberty Loan Bonds have been and are tp be loaned:to those Euro- pean nations engaged in war with rmany. This is no expenditure without return. Tt is an investment and it is an investment that no one will say is insecure. It will not only | bring in a return in interest and a | return of the principal when dne but | it has brought to us a regard and friendship with those nations the value of which in dollars cannot bhe es- timated. The war Is going to be expensive: it is going' to call for sacrifices on the part of the nation and on the part of the indivduals composing the nation. ! Much wealth is going to be shot out of the mouths of guns and cannons and much is going to be sunk at sea, but all | , of the money used for war purposes is | not going to he a financial loss to the { nation. Ame will emerge from the "\\'nr not only with her honor and -l greatness and power increased. but she wlill emerge better fitted for the { struggles of commerce when' peace ' eomes and much of the money spent for war purposcs will be equally val- uable if not more valuable in time of peacc. : MARRIED Mr. and Mrs. P. brated their silver sary at their summer London on Sunday. cight childven: Howard with his father in business student at the Universit vania; Franklin, Grac beth, Izdward and Constance. celer w. wedding home The couple have Smith in New of Penns: 'NOT ADOPTED BY VANDERBILT.
