people to the number of nearly 70,000
subscribed, but to make the present
drive a complete success the number
of subscribers will have to be far in
excess of that number, and t"-i amounts
of the individual subscriptions must
necessarily be increased if Portland and
Oregon are to equal their former
splendid records.
It should not be looked upon as a
burden. It should be a spontaneous
and patriotic recognition of the splen
did work being done by the Govern
ment and by the million and a half
men who are on the other side fighing
or those of as who for one reason or
another cannot go to the front.
"It simply is up to the people of
the city. Willing workers have given
.up their time and business for the pur
pose of the drive. I hope that the
people at large will do all in their
power to help the central organization

director of organization.
Reanlta Will Be Far-Reaehlag.
-"Of all the offensives to be launched
against the German Empire," exclaimed
director Etheridge. "the fourth liberty
loin drive carries the most far-reaching
results! It means a greater defeat
to the central powers than the loss of
men. materials and land. It means
that we are against them to a man!
It means the lands behind the loan

safety a question at issue in the sub
scription to liberty bonds.
