CRAZY WON'T WIN.
Purchase Peace Through The Lib
erty Loan, Pe7ce on American
TERMS.

| mat the hour is dark and the I'M
pending crisis full of terrors for the
American people is sensed by all
Intelligent men who realize that only
by mobilizing the savings of the
masses to back the American Army
of democracy can we triumph, first
over our own fears, and second over
Prussian militarism.
No matter how all this came
about, we are in the war, eli her to
achieve a victory for democracy, or
to so down to defeat under the
power Of entrenched Central Europe,
which protects itself while it de-
stroys the worlds commerce with
the submarine.
The farmers of Iowa and the work
ers of Pittsburg alike must know
that they cannot get out of paying,
either for victory or defeat now
They'll pay dearer for defeat I'M
der an indemnity levied from Ber-
lin by victorious Germany, in case
England is starved and isolated
France is crushed.
Peace is the ideal of America.
Peace can be purchased now in one
Of two ways, either by backing our
soldiers at once with the two bill
lion dollar Liberty Loan, or by pay
ing Germany the cost of her war
in return for her grant of quarter
to our defeated allies.
This two billion dollar loan is a
trifle compared with the $4,000
100000 loaned by the English peo-
pie. 1t is but half the recent new
French loan, subscribed for by the
peasants. 1t is small compared with
the recent German loan to which
5,250,O00 German people volunteered
subscriptions. But it is colossal COM
pared with any former American ma
tional loans.
If the German people beat us in
subscribing for war loans, of course
they will defeat us at arms.
In the present desperate posture of
affairs it would be fatal for the mass
es of the people to say: Let the
rich men and the banks make the
loan" 1t would be impossible for
the banks thus to convert the de-
posits of the people, for the CON-
mercial requirements and the indus
trial needs demand that the re-
sources of the banks be kept liquid.
The people are the true source of
wealth, and to the people the gov
eminent must go for this Liberty
Loan. This means you.
Your share of this obligation runs
from $50 to $1CO, $500 and $1,000.
These Liberty Loan bonds run for
Is or 80 years, as the government
may later decide. They are payable
in gold. They draw 1-2 per cent.
interest. They will serve as securiy
for loans. They will always be a
quickly convertible asset. They will
he simply a new form of savings
account.
The ideal way is not to withdraw
ones entire savings from the bank
thus to embarrass industry, but to
ledge ones self to save. Buy a
Liberty Bond from new savings, from
additional economies or earnings
Don't be hoarder Be an inves-
or in Uncle Sans securities. Take
l first mortgage for $50 on the
United States before the Kaiser
)uts a war indemnity plaster on it.
This will not only insure the sup

viii not only be wager that Auto
.racy will not win, it will also in

Without this loan, business will
urely suffer, and with this loan
prosperity will be assured
