EDITORIALS EVERYBODY’« WAR This Is everybody's w a r- -and everybody must help finance it. That is the gist of a recent statement by Secretary of the Treasury Morgen- thau In which he pointed to the need for increased purchases by indivl- duals of United States Savings Bonds During the next year, said the Secretary, the nation will probably have to borrow upwards of »35,000,- 000,000. And then he made this per- "If the govern- tlnent observation: ment is compelled to go to the com- merlcal banks for the bulk of these funds, the result will lie to increase inflationary tendencies which are al ready serious. . . . "YY’hen bonds are purchased with savings out of current income, on the other hand, such savings help to re- duce excess consumer Income which, if spent for a limited supply of con sumer goods, would tend to force prices up. It Is for this reason, among others, that we are going directly to the people for ns much as possible of the money needed for the war.” The banks cannot do it all—and In the Interest of a sound national economy they should not do it all even if they could. It is the plain duty of everyone, out of self-interest if for no other reason, to put every Story of African Rubber Plantation (This letter was written by Mrs. J. J. Swain from Liberia, Africa to her mother, Mrs. E. E. Scott of this city. Mrs. Swain was the former Mias Mildred Burger.) Continued from Last Week On «ny way out of th«» plane I took one of the most beautiful oranges 1 have ever seen—actually orange color "for true”—from America. I had forgotten that oranges can be that yellow. Meyer and Johnny had come along with mm and remained with the blacks to watch. They, climbed on top of our pickup to see Mfssey in the plane. I brought them the orange and asked them what it was. They will say what It be—for myself, 1 said, "It be good, MIssey?" "You can’t know dese tings.” When I told them it was an orange they laughed and thought it a good Joke. A minute later they were the big attrac- tion showing off the fine, fine ting from "Merica.’’ Sunday night, Jan. 18th, one of the more civilized boys at the air port Jokingly said the airport was going to be bombed that night. What with a plane landing there thnt day combined with the ignorance of these people that was all they needed The alarm was spread through tha camps like wildfire and more than 2,000 blacks, men. women andplck- Ins, left “one time" whatever they could carry with them. Pots, pans, blankets or anything they could grab. The roads were so choked with blacks that they started going off for the Jungles through the fields. Whit.» men In cars were trying all night to turn them back and succeeded to a measure in persuading some of them to return but they are still looking for a lot of them yet and waiting for them to return from the Jungles. Stark terror reigned in those camps as they made their mad escape from what they thought was certain death. Their screams and yelling could be heard for miles. You can't imagin«- the frenzy of these people when they are terrorized, they are like trapped animals and behave as Such. Civil ization Is indeed a very long ways from Africa when something like this happens to show the white man Just how much progress he has made in his vain attempt to tame the wild tribes of Africa. I must bring this to a close and write many more letters for this plane, I wonder If you are as excited as we are over this new development, If you see any clippings in the papers announcing this flight will you please send them, we'd love to know how it was written up in the papers back home. We are all well and I.am back tp work now after my vacation of ten days which I took the middle of this month. Mr. Godley has found It necessary to devote almost hlB entire time to Pan American work In fin executive capacity and he and Joe are working together almost cons tantly now. Because of this I have been taken oft of all Firestone work and am now working for Pan Ameri can myself. We have employed every girl on the Plantations who will work or who has any knowledge of office work and are still crying for help, some of which is due to arrive short- ly. I have turned my Firestone work over to Dorothy Marconi who was my first assistant before and she is working for Mr. Hall now who took over Mr. Godley's Firestone work. My job Is to keep track of all techn ical and legal papers and documents for Pan-Am., contracts. leases, codes, etc. and the job is exciting as well as very Interesting. A great deal of con fidential Information flows over my desk which I could write a book on but which is better left unsaid. Joe likes his work better every day but Is doing quite a lot of overtime with Godley now. I hope It doesn't last indefinitely. 2:30 P.M. Joe Just arrived home for chop and says a bunch of Airmail stamps have been ordered for the Firestone staff and that stamps are about 60c each. When you send us airmail it should cost around this amount. Hope you are able to get a letter to us on the first flight as it > will probably be advisertlsed at home. ' The mall which we hoped to send on the 8.8. YVest Humhaw was left at the post office. No mail was put on board so our letters are still laying down at the P.O.—Nuts. Such effici ency out here, it makes me disgusted , Must close and lots of love and' kisses to all at home. Will write I some different news next time. You 1 might open the letters which arrive addressed to us for if I have time I’ll enclose a letter to you in them. I hope you are all well.
