VOLUME 58 WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH NEW YORK? | HIS is Liberty Day—specially appointed by the President for demonstrations and pledges from every city, town and hain- let in the country in support of the Third Liberty Loan. The City of New York has shown itself ready enough with dem- onstrations. | As for pledges, every hour from now on ought to find its citizens piling them faster and higher. In the next eight days the lagging that has left New York) behind in the Third Liberty Loan has got to give place to a spurt that wil! carry this district up to and above its $900,000,000 quota. That spurt has got to be a spurt of subscriptions—cash paid and awake nights and “worrying” about this war, A woman is always eighing for something new, but a man Is usually quite satisfed if be can have @ new straw hat, a new flirtation and a new basebail favorite every spring.

There is none more active, open-eyed, enlightened. New Yorkers are the last people in the United States who} should have to be nagged into buying Liberty Bonds. | No Americans are more fully supplied with news. None are in| a better position to grasp the full meaning of tho perils that menace) the Nation, and the need of backing to the utmost those who are, fighting for its safety. | In this great port—so constantly aud directly aware of the opera- tions of war, so comparatively near to the war zone—patriotism ought to be of a sort as practical and compelling as can be found anywhere from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. Considering the Third Liberty Loan merely as an investment) proposition, would anybody expect the country’s chief financial centre) to be lukewarm toward 41-4 per cent. on the best security in the| world to-day? | Around such a centre, would it not be much more natural to find the smallest subscribers crowding the biggest financiers in a scramble | to get into partnership with Uncle Sam on these terms?
