Soldiers Hooted.

NEW YORK, June 5.-Absolute
quiet prevailed in the early hours
here as registration began and con-
tinued under fair skies.
Following an outbreak in the
Bronx last night, in which soldiers
in uniform were hooted and attacked
by men and women from an Emma
Goldman meeting, there was no sign
of trouble today.
Registration In the east side of
New York where majority of the
city's foreign population lives, was
slow. Ignorance of the laws and an
inability to understand what was re-
uuired, hampered foreigners.

Patriotic and Safe.

The patriotic nature of an invest
ment In the liberty loan bonds of 1917
is something that all Americans Will
consider. The fact that in purchas-
ing such a bond the investor is lend
ing his money to his governmental
his country-to prosecute great
war, gives the investment dignity
that the ordinary investment does
not possess. The uses to which the
money is to be put, the noble pur-
poses to which it is to be devoted,
all are things which appeal more or
less to the American heart.
But let no one be led by these con-
siderations to look on buying a lib
erty loan bond as a piece of benevo-
lence or merely contribution to a
worthy cause The liberty loan bond
is as good an investment as an Amer
lean citizen can we'll make. The
rate of interest 1t bears may seem
small, but when its absolute safety is
considered and the fact that 1t is
non-taXable, and the further fact that
it is to be immune from any taxes
which later on may be levied by
reason of this war, and still another
fact that in case the United States
government SlOuiu ldLSi uuiih5 bh's
war have to borrow more money and
pay higher rate of interest. that
the holders of these bonds can secure
bonds bearing that higher rate
when all these things are considered,
an investment in liberty loan bonds
possesses advantages that no other
investment in the world possesses
There is another point which wise
and thoughtful people will give due
consideration to and that is an in
yestment in liberty loan bonds is an
investment in the defense and preser-
walton of all their other property and
all they hold dear-the preservation
of their liberties. We would be in
danger, if all our citizens refused to
lend their money to the government,
of losing all that we have-our, prop
erty. our liberties, and our national
honor. 1t has come to this, that we
must fight for these things. and to
wage war in this day and time re-
quires not only men and arms but
great sums Of money.
Subscribers to liberty loan bonds
are charter members of a society TO
maintain American honor and to
, maintain democracy here and in other
parts of the world. Honor and in
terest, patriotism and business tuds-
ment all argue the wisdom of an in
vestment in liberty loan bonds.
