OUR LOANS TO
OUR ALLIES

The loans made by the United
States to the governments at war with
Germany are arranged by Secretary OF
the Treasury McAdoo and submitted
to the president and made with his
approval,
The secretary states that his judg-
ment in making these loans is deter.
mined largely by the monthly require
ments of the applicants. The different
powers. through their duly authorized
representatives, make their represen.
tations as tu their necessities for
carrying on the war, and after discus
sion the various amounts are arrived
at.
These loans, says the secretary, are
essential for our own protection. not
only for our protection in a military
way but for our economic protection
and welfare. The production of the
United States has been speeded up
and greatly stimulated. We are pro
ducing more than our own needs, and
our own economic protection and wei.
fare demand that we sell much OF our
products to our allies. To accomplish
this we must extend these credits to
enable them TO buy cur products.
Their commercial salvation is an
essential part of their effectiveness in
the war, and their commercial well.
being demands that their export trade
be maintained in considerable meas.
ure. They must keep their civil popu.
latloin engaged to the extent noces.
sary to sustain their Industrial end
economic existence. II is sound eco.
noomlc policy on our part to assist
them in maintaining their industrial
life and economic welfare.
Very little of the money loaned TO
our niles, the secretary states, goes
out OF the United States. Most OF It
is spent ria here FIR war materials
and foodstuffs. The money we are
advancing is not contribution; II Is n
loan, on which they will pay interest
and which ultimately will be repaid in
full. Our allies are looked upon by
us as solvent peoples. without ready
money but with perfectly good credit.
Their expenditures Of this money in
this country are supervised by US.
Their purchases are made with the sd.

THE lNTERNED
GERMANS

Some purchasers of Liberty Loan
bonds. who have read exaggerated
reports OF the treatment accorded by
the United States authorities to the
German civilians interned in this coun
try, have written to the treasury de
partment protesting against thu use
OF any OF the money raised by the
Liberty Loans in "pampering" these
alien enemies.
These interned German civilians are
not prisoners of war and are not I'M
der the Jurisdiction of the war depart
ment or the treasury department, but
by the provisions of our immigra.
ton laws are placed under the juris-
diction OF the department of labor
and comprise officers and crews of the
, German merchant vessels seized by
the United States, and other German
civilians. Their deportation, which or
dinarily would take place, is imprac-
ticable in view of the international
situation.
These aliens receive no compensa.
tion from the government except such
as is allowed them for work actually
performed. and the wages paid them
are not exorbitant at all. In fact, If
from their labor and other sources
they receive more than n moderate
amount of money month, all in ex-
cess OF reasonable amount for their
care and comfort is withheld from
them and placed to their credit in the
postal savings banks or some other
safe disposal made of II.
The department of labor also Off
cially states that these aliens are not
allowed an excessive amount of food,
but three meals a day of plain but
thoroughly palatable.. substantial food
are given each. There is no waste
in these detention camps and the same
measures OF economy and conserva.
ton are being practiced which are
being urged upon every American
household.
