State Must Invest $1,000, 600;
Idaho County's Share,

Boise. Oct. 10.-Idaho must invest
s7,900,000 Ia liberty bonds The exec,l-
tive Committee of the twelfth district
mas fixed this figure as the minimum
for the state. The maximum Ia $13,-
100000. In order to have the state
keep up its record for supplying funds
fof war purposes and to come up to
the expectations Of the executive COM
mittee Of the twelfth district, Idaho
must buy bonds to the amount OF $1O,-
100000.
The government must have $B,00O,-
100000, to get this minimum amount
Idaho must subscribe $7,90O,000, but
this figure should by no means be the
maximum. Chairman Davis says that
100000 must be taken as the states
minimum and that the full $4,000, 900
that the western division headquarters
expects should be subscribed.
The government cannot get along
with less than $4,000, 100000 and it Is
asking subscriptions up to 5000, ,OO0-
0D0 In order to meet the demands of
the government ii Is imperative that
Idaho buy bonds up to the full $ID,OO0-
900 allotment.
Some people have the idea that to
buy liberty bond is to make dona-
tion to the government" said former
Governor James III. Hawley 'If the gov
efnment were taking our dollars In the
shape Of taxes no loyal citizen would
have right to complain. We are,
however, offered government bond
fhat pays per cent interest Hold
ngs up to $4,000 are exempt from all
taxes. All holdings, no matter IL one
nas a million dollars worth; are ex-
empt from local taxes and also from
The normal income tax. Can you find
a better and a safer investment for
the man with money The man who
refuses to buy a liberty bond, if he has
the money TO buy with is not a good
citizen. The question of Investment
should be a secondary consideration.
The all important thing is that our
boys, the sons of mothers and fathers
or Idaho, have gone to the front Their
Welfare demands that our dollars be
handed over to the government. The
fed-blo0ded loyal American will give
unstinted financial support whether it
i for Red Cross work, fof liberty
bonds or for one of the other funds
men,
