Viu of Medford's 1365,000 appoo
' tlonment of the loan had been sub
scribed Monday, and predicting that
the city weald go over the top long
before the campaign came to an end.
"Shall we keep faith with those
who lie dead In Flanders fields whero
the lilies grow?" was the closing sen
tence of Congressman Hawlcy's ad
dress which touched the heartstrings
of all his hearers. Almost his entire
address was devoted to entreating
the pebple to stand V the American
aoldlers living and dead, by support
ing, liberally the Victory loan Issue.
Without any attempt at oratory, hut
with plain. statements of fact why we
should buy the. Victory bond, .never-,
tfceless Jie ,waa elpquent very much'
so, and caused suppressed tobs in the
throats ;,of. the -. people.. Tne "very,
.simplicity of his words and delivery
'Impressed everyone with.. the. great'
I reasons, in sentiment alone, why we
Ishould buy Victory bonds.
Mr. Hawley, who was introduced
by Chairman Steele, reviewed briefly
the war up to the present time; He
spoke about the latest news that the
Germans were trying to -dictate, the
peace terms and then added: "it is
notJor jthem to say. We will tell
them what to do." (Applause.)
He then reviewed the awful cost of
the war in lives, destruction of prop
erty and in money and explained that
this Victory loan of five billion dol
lars to take care of outstanding trea
sury . certificates and incidentally
neet the Obligations due the soldiers.
, VWe must either buy the Victory
bonds' or pay more taxes," he declar
ed. 'Yon are asked today to buy
the best Investment ever known If
wedo not raise the Victory loan the
war tfebts'bt our government must.be
paid thru further taxation. Business
is- ilready'too heavily burdened with
out further increased taxes.' '.
. ' The speaker commended Medford
and Jackson county for its glorious
record thruout the war in men fur
nished for the army and navy, and for
financial support of the government
and general patriotic effort, pointing
out that 'both1' city and county had
exceeded, its quota in every previous
liberty bond campaign, and predicted
that this halo of glory would, be in
creased la''-the' Victory Loah'cam-

dier enlisted wita neit OMosing life
and Hub while in service overseas to
tight, tor freedom and world civilisa
tion., "I was In favor'of better pay
for, the soldier,'' said Mr. Hawley,
"but It seems that it was impossible
to give It.?;;. ,-vvjw;-,f.r: -
Toda it Is necessary to; raise this
Victory loan In order to carry out our
pledges to the boys. l.lf.,we can not
rates this loan we can not redeem our
promises to the soldiers." He re
ferred, especially to the government
Insurance which every soldier was
urged to take out, as one of the obli
gations and promises that must be
fulfilled. ; ....
Drawing a pathetic picture Tth
sight of the return of . tha ..many
American soldiers, legless, armless,
sightless, chlhtess. or with other in
juries and generally broaen bodies,
he said: "These men went over the
top for Us and for world freedom,
confident of our promises made to
them. . Unless we are able to sell the
Victory bond laaoe-we can not keep
our faith with them."
"Ati'the St Elisabeth hospital Jn
Washington andi1 other Institutions
like It in thls country, the saddest
places in the United States, are many
returned American soldiers, who are
suffering from shell jshock and from
having len gassed e -the batUefteid
Insane you say. Yes Insane with
glory; of havidg dOheThelr duty for
us and for the freedom and peace of
the world. Yes, they went over the
top for us confident in our pledges,
and with clouded reason they will
ever -live over the war and battles
and their glorious part in It Shall
we keep faith with these men who
served us so well? I say we will."
