self satisfied air and think that they
have done their share towards winning
the war Too many Of us look upon
buying liberty loan bonds as favor
we have done the government instead
Of viewing it as splendid opportunity
which the government has given US to
invest our savings in gilt edge secur-
tiles. Buying liberty bonds is most
worthy and we ought to buy until it
hurts" but in doing so we ought not
to overlook the fact than in saving
our loose change to pay for these
bonds we are training ourselves to be
thrifty. Americans have always been
just little eXtravagant. We have
been spending our money faster than
we have earned it ofttimes. Now we
are to learn to spend just little less
than we earn and to lay by something
for rainy day.

The receipts of our national foreign
trade for the first eight months of this
year, made by the Department of Com
merce, show our export values to have
been s4,151 ,615,611 and import val

total of foreign business for the wear
will be in round numbers S6,75O,0 OO,-

than $5,O00,0 100000. These are plain.
as figures, but as facts are utterly in
conceivable. Leaving out the loan to
the Allies-though every dollar is
spent in this Countrywide government
IS preparing to spend about $4,000
,ooO,OOO in year and most of it right

100000 is pouring in through the for

vast sum go? How can we readiust

the situation? '

A number of American newspapers
are being censured by the government
for publishing news pertaining to the
movements of our troops to France.
The war department some time ago
sent to each newspaper in the United
States letter appealing to the ed
itors to refrain from publishing any
information concerning the movement
Of troops within the borders of the
United States or the movement of
troops from this country to any other
country, news of which might prove
advantages to the enemy. Only
small percentage Of the newspapers
have so far forgotten themselves as
to give their readers such information.
The Independent receives letters al
most weekly from the soldier boys
containing information which we deem
it advisable not to publish. It would
make interesting reading matter but
Uncle Sam has placed the publishers
upon their honor and those who be-
tray the confidence of the government
deserve to have their publications
barred from the mails.
