Excluding your two-weeks| vacation, it will take you a year to save $100 if you put away $2 a week, and it can be done in six months if you deny yourself still farther and store away $4 a week. That $100 can do many things for you. It ean buy things which are not good for your welfare, your health, your longevity. | Tt can be hidden away d if not lost or stolen, used when; the proverbial rainy day comes round. It can be put in a savings bank and from two to three per cent interest col-| lected. It can be invested in bonds of the Fourth Liberty Lean and wil! pay four and a fourth per cent dividend. If hidden in the family teapot, the annual return would! be—00. If deposited in the average savings bank it will pay| you each year—$3. If loaned to your government it will pay you every| year—$4.25, Now as to safety. The teapot, or other home hiding spot, may be rifled by thieves, or reached by rodents and the bills destroyed, or the money may be burned. The bank is safer. Few banks fail. But no bank is safer or stronger or more permanent than the govern- ment which gives the bank the privilege of existing. | The Liberty Bond is as safe as the government. It) is the promise of the government. It is backed by the! people of the United States, and by all the wealth of the country. No individual’s promise to pay, no bank’s promise to pay, and no corporation’s promise to pay is as well| backed as is this promise to pay made by the government of the United States. It is, therefore, an acknowledged fact that $100 in- vested in Liberty Bonds is safer and more productive than if placed anywhere else, in family teapot, bank vault or in any corporation's treasury. “We never lost courage,” said the German imperial chancellor to the reichstag. Mebbe so, but they lost ground, guns, men and. that “dinner in Paris.” Liberty Patriots As fine a bunch of real, loyal-to-the-core Americans as ever lived are those who are giving their spare time to the selling of Liberty Bonds. They are worthy brothers and sisters of the Yanks “over there” and when this war's his- tory is written a goodly share of credit for winning will belong to these Liberty Loan workers. They receive no other reward than the satisfaction of having helped win the war. They will during this Liberty Loan campaign visit every home in the United States, mansion, tenement, cot- tage, in city streets and rural highways. The value of the time they give gratuitously is enormous; their enthusiasm is beyond price. They are as much the soldiers of the cause as they who wear khaki, and as well entitled to your Kind consideration, your respect and your heartiest greeting. Do what you can do to show the Liberty Loan salesman who comes to your home that you appreciate his services. “Only a base ingrate, a traitor, a pro-German Hun, will do a thing to make the Liberty Loan salesman’s round of calls less pleasant and Jess productive. | For he is helping fight America’s war! Within ten years you will tell yourself that the Liberty Bonds you hold were the best investment you ever made—in dollars and cents as and cents as well as patriotism. Work for City, ee Howard Cosgrove, chairman of the Fair Rentals com- mission, operating under federal authority, has stated that! the commission’s jurisdiction does not extend beyond ship- yard and war workers. How about the rest? Are the thousands of other cases of rent profiteering to be left untouched? The Star is glad that shipyard workers are now to get protection from hog- gish landlords, but why should the rest of the population be fleeced at will? Cosgrove is not to blame. He realizes the limits that have been set upon his work. What is now needed is a commission which can handle cases other than those dealt with by Cosgrove’s board. The Fair Rentals commission is a step in the right direction. A few more steps of this sort and the whole field will be covered. Let the city’s officials get on the job again and take steps to protect the rest of the population | that does not come within Cosgrove’s jurisdiction. “Buy a Bond” is a fine postscript for any letter you may write during the Fourth Liberty Loan cam- paign. Eight Hours in Steel The United States Steel corporation has announced its acceptance of the basic eight-hour day for workers in its! plants. This marks the greatest advance made by the eight-hour day since the Adamson law put railroad em-| ployes on that basis. | For long years there were no stronger or more suc-| cessful opponents of the short work day in America than| the Steel Corporation and its subsidiaries, Bitterly they fought union labor and all its demands, the right to organ-| ize, living wage, short hours, and better working condi-| tions. The Homestead massacre was not the only battle which emphasized the bitterness of the industrial struggle. | ‘And now, seemingly, the lion and the lamb have lain down| together. All the fighting activities of both steel employer! and employe are to be directed at the Hun “over there” and| not at each other in steel mills here at home. “British cleaning up the needs cleaning up any worse.
