Have You Thought Of
Buying a Liberty Bond?
BY ALBERT HOWARD HASBROOK,
Managing Editor OF the Daily
Express, Du Bois, Ia.

The following editorial was award
ed the silver loving cup which was
offered in a competition conducted By
the committee OF public safety for the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the
purpose Of aiding in the sale OF the
first issue of Liberty bonds:
For the Babies of the World.
Have you thought about buying a
Liberty bond?
Let us sit down and talk It over.
What do these bonds mean? The
government has but two ways OF rails
ing money for the conducting of the
war. One is direct taxes on things
used by the people. and the other way
is by borrowing money from the peo-
pie. TO use either method exclusive
~. Is not good business. for it either
imposes the full cost Of the war on
the present generation or entirely on
the coming generations. so the plan
OF putting the cost on several genera
tons was decided upon. Liberty bonds
will tighten the cost of the war to
YOU. They will make the taxes on
the things YOU now use lower than il
the whole war were paid for by i'm
posts. So it is to your advantage from
even selfish point of view TO see
that the Liberty loan Is ovcrsubscribed
IN order that the government may
know that the people are ready and
willing 20 meet the cost to a great
extent without heavy taxation.
And to close our discussion OF the
financial end of the argument let's
see what these bonds mean to you ks
an individual. Suppose you buy $50
bond. II you do you are simply saw
ing $50 at time when savings are
very handy. The money will be in :hc
care of the strongest government on
earth. the richest government on earth.
and the one which as long as il lives
will never repudiate or go back on its
debts.
