''V Washington, June 5. A great war is a nation's supreme test. To con duct a war successfully requires the marshalling of all of the nation's re sources as vell as its physical strength. It is the part of the yung men to make the nation's physical strength felt on the firing line. It is the Dart of those who cannot give their services at the front to be the sustaining forces behind the line. It is the Dart of the women to fill in the roles that the men have been playing and to keep up the nation's efficiency. It is the part of those who can afford it to lend their capital to enable the nation to prosecute the war with the greatest effectiveness. It is inconceivable that the people of tho United States will ever be called upon to meet the privations which this war forced upon the peo ple of Europe. European nations have already expended fifty hillions of dollars of their resources to prose--cute the war and. their people have given, not only their lives, but they have subjected themselves to tre mendous sacrifices in every way. Five million European homes have been visited by death itself. Fine cities have given place to mins. Rich and poor have gone on government food rations; individual liberty has been sacrificed to national unity of action in order to gain nr.tional efficiency. Women, who have been accustomed to fine clothes and the constant round of entertainment, have taken their place as day laborers in munition factories. All of this sacrifice has been made for a cause that is as much onrs as theirs. The violation of the neutrali ty of Belgium was just as much an af front to America as to Great Britain. German autocracy threatens the per petuity of free institutions every where alike. The important thing now is for Americans to realize that this is our war and as participants, we must do our utmost to bring it to a successful conclusion. The thing which is most available and' vhich can be given at once is our wealth. It is the patriotic duty therefore, of every American to help make the Liberty Loan an over whelming success. It is the umimal privilege of Amer icans to take this first step in helping the fighting nllicte without gireat sac Even if you do not wish to place your subscription on the basis of patriot ism, you might reasonably place it on the basis of investment. A 3 1-2 ner CI'IIL KM vermin-ill L'uau, IMA iii:t;t is till excellent investment. The purchase of Liberty Bonds to tho extent of $50 means that you are lending your resources to pp.y the keep of one soldier for ten days in the trenches f France. Surely you can do that much. Many can do much I more. ! T ........ n tl.
