IallT by MaU, per year IMMIGRANTS LURED AWAY According to the American Bankers Association, there is an alarming exodus of aliens to Europe. These people, their imaginations influenced by Bolshevik propa ganda, are withdrawing their savings, selling their Lib erty bonds and setting sail. It is estimated that more than 1,000,000 will cer tainly go, taking with them many hundred million dol lars of American currency, Naturally this sudden withdrawal of huge sums is not good for the finances of this country, but we can stand it. Far worse it is for those deluded souls who have listened to the sinister whisper of "free and un restricted liberty in the homeland. TVioir ricilliicinnmonr Vine itc YiUifnl cirla Tviit Tier.

THE LAST CHANCE hand the thing they think they want. The first thing they find will be that in any Bolshevik-ridden country their savings will be torn from them without mercy, while they and the kin they go to help may suffer, starve or bleed unheeded. When they have seen the wages of their hard work, their painful saving, shiveled in the roaring furnace of Europe, this republic, free because it is law-abiding, will have new meaning. Either they will creep back here, chastened and worth while, or they will exert a mighty effort to establish such republics as this in the countries The most unexpected condition attending the issue f the Victory Lean is the refusal of the Treasury De niftmpnr tn nrwrnr nvprsnhscrintions. This is considered especially remarkable in view of the fact that the issue is 'abroad.

It will still be possible hereafter, of course, to buy war bonds; but they will not be offered again by the government, with its spectacular appeals and easy conditions and universal facilities for subscrib ing with little effort. In the future purchasers will have to go into the open market, buying government securities through broke re. They will have to pay cash in most instances; and because of competition that will ensue, they may soon have to pay higher prices. It goes without saying, then, that there will be a big rush to take up this issue. . It is the last chance to loan money directly to Uncle Sam in an exceptionally desirable type of investment. Lenine promises to send an army to Budapest. There we find Bolshevism, like Prussianism.

Memfoerg of the lodge are War taxes conic, but it's good business to pay them. The United States so far has paid one-third of its war expenses by current taxes. One of the reasons why both Germany and France feel their war burdens pressing so heavily today is that they raised their funds almost whol ly by loans -whose payment they now lace. Now there is a League of Women Voters of Notions added to the League of Nations. A League Senator Johnson of California laments that the news papers are nearly all "scycopants and cowards," and "the clays of journalism has passed." That's what the news papers get for not endorsing the viows of a Bolshevik leader like Johnson! RIPPLING RHYMES By Walt Mascn THE SADDEST HOUR I'm saddest when I sing old songs of love and home; for neighbors come and fling big dernicks at my dome. My voice is like the wail of some sick wolverene; I ought I o be in jail of using it, i ween. The neighbors cry, "By jing, cut out that ghastly chant"; I dearly love to sing, because I can't. At some things I excel; at knitting I'm a jo; but I would rather yell than anything I know. We mortals and perverse; we'd rather do the things that we do worse than any one in view. There always is in reach some melancholy guy who cannot make a speech, and yet "is bound to try. Some fellow with long hair will punch piano keys, although his friends declare his talent tastes of cheese. Some weary, mournful bore hands out a story .stale, and thinks we ought to roar with laughter at the Jafe. One thing's beyond my skill, I cannot sing for prunes; and so I'm bound to trill, and murder useful tunes. And then the neighbors come, and gather round my shack, at eve, when fireflies hum along their glowing track; they seek my cottage door, the men of hill and dale, and for an hour or more they ride me on a rail. to my room, the room which 1 had so delighted in, mid which now I twined lit uniio.st with Innthiiig lis I recalled v.liut Mr. Frederick luid said. People ncic Illuming Neil ior livii'K as we did perhaps thev were ulso bluiiilkK me.

I tried to refute it in my iiiinil; tried to si.y no, he hadn't done so! Kverythinir we had had been honestly earned, but 1 couldn't. In the bulit of what Mr. Frederic, n.ul told mo, 1 couldn't. 1 knew he would not williimiy hurt me, that while lie was blunt lie wan also kind, lie bad prolmblv sJt'ti d much; things perhaps were worse than be had told mo.

No wonder be had advised me to wait until he hml 'a look in.' I wondered if he bad seen Mr. Powers -lie had said that lie miht.

The only thing that will appeal to them is a COLD BLOODED BUSINESS PROPO SITION." Do you believe it? Do you think people are going to invest in this Vic tory Loan ONLY because it's a bully good investment? Seventy-two thousand Americans went to France and "INVESTED" all they had in Liberty and were killed before their "DIVIDENDS" came due. THAT was a cold-blooded business proposition. Two million other Americans went to France, too, and willingly offered their lives on the same investment They knew they might never clip a coupon. Thirty million other Americans at home got in on that "INVESTMENT saved and sacrificed to do it. That was a "cold-blooded business propesiition." The Job Must Be Finished We are still Americans and every "TRUE AMERICAN" is going to see the job finished in the good old American style. It may be a "cold-blooded business proposition," some people call it "PATRIOTISM." Go to Your Bank NOW and n u ictory VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN AD.
