THE WAR FINANCE CORPORATION
The bill recently introduced in Con
gress for the creation of the "War
Finance Corporation" with a capital '
stock of fire hundred million dollars, '
all of which is to be subscribed by1
the United States, should be regarded,
says Secretary of the Treasury Mc
Adoo. primarily as a measure to en. '
-able .the, .banks, both national and
.State' banks' and trust companies, to
continue to furnish essential credits
for industries and enterprises neces
Bary or contributory to the prosecu
tion of the war.
The Government has made and is
making through the Liberty Loans
such large demands upon the lendable
capjtal pf the country that the banks
often have been prevented from giving
needed help to private .enterprises,
some, of which are performing vital
service in connection with the war.
The War Finance Corporation is de
signed as a war measure to give relief
from this condlttbn during the period
of the war and Secretary McAdoo as
serts that the mere existence of the
corporation would of Itself do so much
to maintain confidence that its actual
aid would be necessary only in rela
tively few cases.
This is no hasty conceived legis
lation. Secretary McAdoo has taken
the most expert advice available and
the methods adopted in the other
countries at war have been thoroughly
studied. The proposed law embodies
the basic principles of similar laws
which have been tried in Europe. Its
purpose is to attain the most efficient
use of our country's tremendous finan
cial resources for the Government and
for private enterprises, which are all
necessary to the welfare of the coun
try and our success in this war.
PERSHING PRAISES
FIGHTING MEN
In a recent communication to
Secretary of War Baker, the
commander of the; Ahierican
Expeditionary Forces said:
"There has never been a sim
ilar body of men to lead as clean
lives as our American soldiers
in France. They have entered
this war with the highest de
votion to duty and with no other
idea than to perforin these du
ties in most efficient manner
possible. They fully realize their
obligation to their own people,
their friends, and the country
A rigid program of instruction
is carried out daily with tradi
tional American enthusiasm.
Engaged in healthy, interesting
! exercises in the open air, with
simple diets, officers and men,
like trained athletes, are ready
,for their tasks. Forbidden the
use of strong drink and protect
ed by stringent regulations
against sexual evils, and sup
ported by their own moral cour-
,age, their good behavior is the
, subject of most favorable com
ments, especially by our allies.
American mothers may rest as
sured that their sons are a cred
it to them and to the Nation,
and they may well ldok forward
to the proud day when on the
battle field these splendid men
will shed a new luster on Amer
ican manhood."

WHY
FARMERS SHOULD RAISE
MORE CHICKENS
More chickens and more eggs jvjll
release more meat for our Armleo and
the Allies. Poultry can be Increased
more rapidly and more economically
than any of the meat animals. Chick
ens will live, grow and prosper on
waste that would never otherwise; be
used, and will eat the infant bugs,
particularly orchard pests, before tho
latter have had time to do great harm.
Chickens ' require a minimum of at
