He said: "How Is the United States going to pay her war debts which are now be ginning to flood the nation's treasury? The outflow of public funds today is al most on a par with the expenditures made while the war was raging. Al though there are no more munitions or Implements of war to be purchased, the engines of destruction which Amer ican factories created to bring about the downfall of the imperial govern ment of Germany have not all been paid for. Then there are the heavy expenditures Incident to readjusting the world from a war to a peace basis. Reconstruction Coat Heavy. "It is no news to students of history to be told that the expenses of post war reconstruction have always been as great and many times greater than the actual war outlay. Food must be hipped to our boys who are still on foreign soil. Money must be raised to further projects having to do with fitting these noble heroes of ours with suitable occupations. Those who have been maimed must not be made to come into competition with the sound. "Where is the money to come from? The people themselves, although they lent patriotic and wholehearted sup port to the government's war program and made unprecedented sacrifices, keenly felt the effect of the taxes Im posed in the revenue bill such as they bad never faced before and would have not submitted to except in view of ex traordinary circumstances. Now that the war Is over we must find some way of raising money to finance the various necessary projects confronting the nation. People Must Cooperate. The people must cooperate, and they can cooperate without paying heavy taxes. They can continue to Invest In War Savings Stamps, Liberty Bonds and other government securities, and help the government by helping them selves. "The government offers its citizens a two-fold proposition, mutually helpful. Funds can be raised to help the gov ernment meet its obligations, by the patriotic cooperation of the people, who are at the same time making as safe an investment as can be made in securities, backed by the most stable business on earth, that of Unple Sam." 4& n. i 1 .si Lft VICTORY LOAN QUOTA NOT TO HINGE ON V. S. S. Failure of Some Districts to Reapportion Causes Change in Plans Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as planned by the Treasury Department the first of the year. It was announced j last January by Lewis B. Franklin, i director of war savings, that wherever Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded I the amount of oversubscription would be taken from the coming loan quota i and that if the Thrift Stamp quotas : were not reached the deficiency would 1 i be added to the loan quota. : I Governor James K. Lynch of the ! Federal Reserve Bank has just ! received a telegram from Washington I advising that the plan to adjust Vic i tory Loan quotas In accordance with J the sale of War Savings Stamps has I been abandoned. The reason given j was that some of the Federal Reserve Districts were not reapportioning I Thrift Stamp quotas. BUYS Glass Is Thinking of Fifth Loan Are You? "I say that it takes a higher type of patriotism to serve this nation today that It required in the delirium of war, and that It Is the duty of the American people, and I believe they will regard It as their 'privilege, to approach that question with some degree of patriotism and not altogether upon a commercial basis." Secretary of the Treasury Car ter Glass. ; i - ! THRIFT MEANS SpenJing wisely to satisfy import ant neeis of the present and saving the of one's income to meet Im portant needs of the future, lest spending for trifles today deplete one's resources so that he cannot meet important needs and opportunities to morrow. Thrift, like success, requires two things, planning and will power to carry out the plans. In short, thrift means success. Thrift Stamps will help you to plan and will back up your will power. "There never was a time in the his tory of the United States when the ut most possible stimulation of the sav ing habit, meant so micb to Individual and national prosperity as it does now." Elmer H. Youngman, editor of "The Bankers' Magazine." We have won the war; we must keep our army equipped to help enforce peace. War bills must be met. Lend your money to the government. Buy War Savings Stamps. . 4- REGENERATION Before I went to war I lived my life In luxury and softness, seeing naught Of the despair and sad, unceasing strife Of thousands with whose lives my ease was bought, Before I went to war I took no thought But heedless, careless, dallied on with sin; Saw not the price at which a soul is bought, Nor knew the souls men buy as mine own kin. I went to war tore out my dying roots From the stagnant soil and flesh was bedded In. I'd thought to find my comrades uncouth brutes Instead, found men, and learned that sin is sin I And Liberty! I learned to know thy call Is God's own call to help the world In pain. So, God, I pray thee not to pardon all. But do not let me close my eyes again! Lieutenant John H. Minns. Disraeli said, "The greatest secret of success in life s to be ready when your opportunity comes." Prepare with War Savings Stamps.
