Session at Utile RfM'k Votes to Ac
cept Invitation.
In 1919 the editors of the United
States will hold their national con
vention in Oregon, Washington and
British Columbia. This point has
just been decided at the present ses
sion of the National Editorial Asso
ciation at Little Rock. Arkansas.
where a delation from the North
west Tourist Association fought a
winning fight to secure the meeting
for their district.
Invitations were extended by To
ledo, Philadelphia, Kansas City; San
Francisco, Detroit, Chicago and last
but decidedly not least, the Great
Northwestern section, comprising the
states of Washington and Oregon and
the Provinc-j of British Columbia.
Th.is invitation was backed up in
person by Herbert Cuthbert, chair -'.iiiui
executive secretary of the Pa
cific Northwest Tourist Association,
representing tl.e governments of Ore
gon, Washington and British Colum
bia; Frank P. Goss, representative
of the Washington Stale Press Asso
ciation, and F.. E. Prodie, represen
tative of the Oregon State Press Asso
ciation; Lieut. ('. L. Armstrong, rer
resenting the Provincial Press Asso
ciation of Eritish Columbia. These
gentlemen each spoke of the plans
that were made for this convention,
stating that it would be largely a
convention on wheels, spending equal
time in each tf the states and prov
ince. An attempt will be made to
show the resources and industry of
each section as are of natural import
ance and which are being developed
and carried on in connection with the
great object of winning the war.
All was going well, and it seemed
that the battle would be won for the
West without a shot being fired, when
a resolution was introduced by the
executive committee to the effect that
owing to unsettled conditions brought
about by the w ar, and the uncertain
ty of transportation facilities, this
body advised that the convention take
no action whatever regarding next
vear's meeting, but leave it to the
executive committee to not only de
cide the place, but also whether or
not a convention would be held at all

In the midst of the discussion a ! "The first isue of certit.cates wiir

This was perhaps a strong factor in
the vote that defeated the resolution
of the executive committee.

Washington, June 16. The bank'
and trust companies of the countr;
will be asked to finance the govern
ment to the extent of $6,000,000,00'
for the period which will intervene
between June 25 and the next Liberty
loan, which probably will be fixed foi
the first two weeks of October.
Secretary McAdoo, in a circular
letter to the banks asd trust com
panies, outlines the scheme of finan
cing on certificates of indebtedness
which will be called into play the lat
ter part of this month. He says:
"The expenditures of the govern
ment as nearly as can be estimated,
will require the sale of certificates of
indebtedness up to the first of No
vember, 1916, aggregating approxi-
mately $6,000,000,000. This would!
involve the issue every two weeks of
$750,000,000 of certificates substan- things he must have to fight victor

except that they will have various states will fail to do his full meed of

"It is now contemplate that at a
convenient and favorable period dur

made to the general public, ii, iy

"National and state b;u!cs are ex
pected to take the certilictcs up t;
2 per cent of their gross resource.
for every period of two weeks, or a
total of about 5 per cent, monthly."
In his letter to the banks and
trust companies Secretary McAdoo
makes the following appeal to pa
triotism: "Already more than 700,000 of our
splendid American boys are on th
-oil of France, and many of them are
actually fighting among the heroic,
lefenders of the western front. Fresh
contingents of American troops are
constantly going forward to Francs
and this stream will not stop until
there is enough of American manhood
and valor on the battle line to defeat
the kaiser and his minions, and force
peace upon the righteous basis which
will make secure the liberties ,, ma
kind. America's sons are dying daiiy
in these battles of fire and poison gas
ses now raging in France. The heart
of every American must thrill with
pride and emotion as he thinks of th
sacrifices our sons are making for our
safety and our liberty. The bankers
of the United States can vender a pe
culiarly helpful service to our gallant
sons by keeping the treasury of the
United States supplied with the mon
ey required by the government to fur-
nish every American hero with
he
essential service to his country and
her noble defenders."
He
