IF the people fail to make this Lib

lens made for raising the money by
taxation. and then God help the peo-
pie"
The above was Secretary McAdoo's
answer to the question asst to the steps
to be taken in the event of the faif4
ure OF the Liberty Loan. The ques-
tion was asked by. c. A. Miller chair
man of the Oregon campaign, and Mr..
Miller, who is here today, repeated It
to impress upon the people the ne
cessity of advancing money for the
prosecution Of the war.
The United States is going to have
money enough to win this war. That
is certain, and, IL the people won't
loan it, then they win have to give It
in the form of taxes. The govern
ment is not asking anybody to give
this money outright. It is simply
asking for loan upon the best se-
curity on the face OF the globe and
is guaranteeing four per cent on the
investment The investment Is a gilt
edged one for. aside from the Interest.
the bonds are almost certain OF going
at a premium as soon as the war Is
over. 1t Is a matter OF history that
every United States issue OF war
bonds has gone to a PREMIUM some
times as high as i16.
Germany Not So slow.
There is a singular apathy IN This
country Mr.. Miller went on to say.
why. we have been two weeks now
on this campaign and haven't muck
more than got a good start toward
raising the money asked. Why Ger
many has just fIoated her seyeuth
bond issue and cid il in a week. The
German people. who have already
subscribed to six bond issues, SUBJ
scribed two-thirds as much as the
Unitetd States Is now asking for and
cid it in one-third the time we are
taking. The German people have al
ready subscribed s21.O00, 600, 600.
I'VE may Just as wen understand
right now that as long as this war
goes on we are going to have TO sub
scribe to a government loan at least
every six months and the people
should figure on that basis. The IN
vestment is a sound one and a good
one, for the bonds are the most SAL
able things in the world. and IL the
people won't loan they are going to
have to give outright
Mr.. Miller is making a tour OF east
ern Oregon to give the situation the
'cnee over" He finds Il very good
in Pendleton but not so good I'm many
other communities. The cities. he
states. are coming through in much
better shape than the country districts
and he thinks that IT is because the
people have not vet been
reached with the arguments upon the
need for the money.
He conferred with local bankers
This morning and left with the dele
cation for the east end OF the county
this afternoon.

WASHINGTON, oct. II. - The

attempts of munition manufacturers
TO evade SIT, 100000 in taxes. The
government is forcing the manufac-
turers to pay up.
The manufacturers eyaded the tax
es by over estimating the amount of
plant depreciations. According to
manufacturers estimates the govern
ment is entitled to $26. 300, 900. Close
scrutiny of their books by treasury
field agents showed the government is
really entitled to $4S,O00.0O0 a dis
crepancy of approximately $4,000
600. The Investigation resulted in dis
closing greatly increased profits after
the unduly large sums for plant de-
