Seattle and King county are called upon to raise $26,872,400 for the Fourth Liberty Loan. : ; And we have the ability, Mr. Employer and Mr. Employe, to gain that objec- tive in ONE DAY. If each of us, laborer and business man, subscribes today, we can fill our quota at once. Why have a long campaign? To drag it out means a dis- turbance of business—war business as well as private bus- iness. As long as our Liberty Loan quotais incomplete, every- thing else must be sidetracked.
