Proclamation
Executive Department,
Salem, Ore., Oct. 10, 1917.
Whereas, the American people
have sot themselves the task of rais
ing a second Liberty Loan of from
three to five billion dollars. Twenti
eth century war requires vast sums
of money. The requirements are far
beyond what the wealthiest country
can raise by taxation. The great na
tions of Europe have been at war for
three years. They have floated loan
after loan successfully. It Is unthink
able that this country should fail with
its second loan, six months after the
declaration of war; and
Whereas, failure to provide the
necessary money would mean failure
properly to provision and equip our
troops. An army Insufficiently
equipped and supplied is led to un
availing slaughter. We owe to those
who are to do the fighting to stand
behind them loyally, to give them
everything which will add to their ef
ficiency and bring them nearer the
day of victory. Let us not fight this
war half-heartedly, with one hand be
hind our backs. Let us fight It man
fully in a manner worthy the best
traditions of the republic; and
Whereas, Oregon's share of the
fund required. is sixteen and a half to
twenty-four million dollars. This is
a sum too large to be raised without
the co-operation of the whole people:
Every Oregonlan with an Income
should consider It a duty and a priv
ilege to purchase one or more bonds,
In proportion to hte means. The gov
ernment asks us not to contribute,
but to Invest. There Is no safer In
vestment In the world than a loan to
the United States;
Now, therefore, by virtue of the au
thority In me vested, as governor of
the state of Oregon, I. James Wltay
combe, governor, do hereby proclaim
the week of October 14 to 20, 1917,
as Patriotic Week. Oregon" has thus
far responded to every appeal. We
have given the flower of our young
manhood. Let us not be a sordid peo
ple. Let us not place greater store
by our money than by our men. If
our people can only be aroused to the
necessities of the situation we cannot
fail to have the co-operation which
will spell success.
In testimony whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the state of Oregon to be hereunto
affixed this 10th day of October, A.
D. 1917.
JAMES WITHTCOMBE.
