Gompers Urges Union Labor
To Buy Liberty Loan Bonds

America had such an attractive op-
portunity to become holders of Unit
ed States government bonds.
The most gilt-edged securities Of
fered for investment of savings have
been put within easy reach of all.
To enable workers to acquire Liberty
Loan Bonds, various methods of pay
ment in small installments have been
devised in different cities and COM
munitieS.
Never was the opportunity for
popular support of the government,
so linked with patriotic service. It
has ceased to be a question of Am
able to buv a Liberty Bond?"
Bankers, employers and business men
have arranged terms of payment so
that every man and woman will be
able to help.
The members of this organization
should do their best to put this or
ganizat.on in the vanguard of the
subscribers to the Liberty Loan.
Every dollar provided quickly and
expended wisely will tend to shorten
the war and save human life.

"A letter from Alderman Moberg,
who was absent, was read, which re-
quested that blue prints for the brick
yard road be made by City Engineer
Swinson or by some one else compet-
ent of doing the work. At this point
wrangle arose between Lahr and
Smart over the efficiency of the
present city engineer and his ability
to furnish such blue prints.
Just as the debate was getting in
teresting Mr.. Swinson himself ar
rived and quieted affairs by stating
that the desired blue prints were
already in the city clerks office. The
prints were produced and the argu-
ment dropped.
The appointment of George Kirk as
clerk of the municipal court, by
Judge John F. Gibbons, was approved
by the council
The bill for additional bridge sup
plies was accepted, payment to be
made at future date.

mission to have plat and blue print

Late returns from the Liberty
Loan campaign in Bemidji have
showed the mercury of the Liberty
Loan thermometer up to 100000, as
shown today. 1t is gratifying the
manner in which Bemidji is rally
ing to the loan and many who con-
sidered they would be unable to help
have found they can do so under
the payment plan for investment.
Ask about the payment plan and buy
a bond. Good investment and many
are doing so. Ask your banker to
explain. He isn't making anything
out of it, but you will and also help
your country win the war.
