THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN

With the Fourth Liberty Loan cam.
paign less than two weeks of a re,
view Of the preceding loans is inter.
esting.
May ., 1917. Secretary McAdoo an
nOunced that the amount OF the first
loan would be s2,OOO,0OO.OOO. These
bonds were to bear 3lz per cent in
terest and be taken up at the end of
thirty years. with the Government
having an option of cashing them at
any time after fifteen years. They
were not subject 10 taxation.
The Liberty Bell was pealed and the
campaign started. After its close on
June u it was found that the loan
had been Oversubscribed by more than
billion dollars. No part of this over
subscription was accepted. Those
who had bought in amounts less than
$4,000 We're given their full allot-
ments. The others were allowed a
paEt Of the amount they had sub
scibed.
The second loan. intended to raise
S5,v0Q0O0,00 was at 4 per cent. The
bonds ran from 10 to % years.
The campaign closed October 2S.
1917, and was pronounced 'an over
whelming success" by Secretary Nc
Adoo. Half of the Oversubscriptions
were accepted this time The total
amount OF money received from this
loan was close to $4,000. 100000
The campaign for the third loan
opened April 6, 1918. one year after
our declaration of war with Germany.
The interest rate was 4l4 per cent
and the bonds were to run from ) to
10 years.
Three Billion dollars was set as the
amount of the loan and about $780,
100000 was subscribed All the over
wa saccepted.
Now preparations are being made
for the fourth loan. They have not
been completed yet The amount has
not even been determined. 1t is
thought that it will be $4,000, 900 600,
twice that of the largest previous
Oan. This would mean that Colum-
1ia would be expected to subscribe
lbout 100000 and Boone County ap-
$1.1OO,OOO.
The reasons why you should have
,Cught bonds in the foregoing cam
" agns still hold good. There are ad- ]
liional reasons also. With the
mount of the loan doubled. or at
east largely increased. it will be c
necessary for those who have never a
'Clght before, to buy now, and for
hose who have bonds already to buy
many more. A record of every citi- =,

SOCIAL OWNERSHIP.

Ttera is but one way to solve the trust problem and that is through social ownership. This will come to pass in the natural course of evolution, but this presupposcs the intelligence on our part to see the inevitable and to guide the forces that are transforming society from a capitalist despotism into a So- cialist commonwealth.
 It is vain and foolish to talk about regulating the great indus tries by a government which is it. self the creature of that same in- dustrial power.
 They who control the industrial life of nation of necessity con- trol it's government and any hope or expectation O. relief based upon reliance in government, as long as the nations industries are in pri- vate hands, is certain to meet with disappointment.
 The industries constitute the na- tion's means of life. The private owners of these have in their hands the power of life and death over the people.
 Social own 9rship of these indus tries is the only means of economic freedom and social salvaton. The Socialists are the only peo- pie who have a definite plan oi social ownership and who are ac- lively at work educating the people to ar understanding of the struggle which must inally culminate in in dustrial and social democracy.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-01-24
INDUSTRIAL UNITY.

Tho call today sounds to the ma tion's workers to get together. The industrial workers of the mills and factories, in the mines and on the railways must unite. and the work CTS on the farms and in the forests and in tho agricultural districts must make common cause with them.
 Industrial unity of the workers is of the first importance in the struggle to abolish wage-slavery Political unity is of vital import ance bu: unity on the political field alone will not suffice.
 The class struggle is a struggle of daily clashes. Every hour marks a battle. In this battle the workers are beaten ,n advance if they are not organized All these battles are life and death battles between tho capitalist exploiting class and the toiling exploited class. In every such battle something is gained CT lost.
 But not alone for fighting these battles must the workers be indus trally organized, but that they may be prepared to take control of in dustry and operate and manage it

when the change comes.

When the Change comes.
 Every great modern industry should express she industrial unity of the workers engaged in it. Not by craft, not by trade, not by occu- patton but by entire industries must the workers organize their economic power to use in the daily struggle for better conditions and finally in the hour of victory to take contro! of the industries of the nation.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1918-01-24
KNOWLEDGE AND PROGRESS.

Knowledge is the result of edu- cation observation and experience. and knowledge is the power that promotes progress. This is as true of nations as it is of individuals.
 Would you develop your power and make it count so that your body has again mingled with the dust? Then acquire knowledge and set about it without delay. Sound and wholesome books and papers are within easy reach. Begin a sy- stematic course of reading and study. Train your faculties and de- velop your mind. Resolve to be somebody and to do something be- sides satisfying the mere animal wants of existence. Berkely has well said:
 He that would make real pro- gross in knowledge must dedicare his age as well as his youth--the latter growth as we'll as first fruits-at the altar of truth"
 There is no service more exalt- ing and at the same time more ex- acting than service in the cause of truth. Men may not think it worth while to go to the pains of fitting themselves to serve the cause of truth and justice and the world does not think it worth while to re- remember them when they return to dust.
 There is nothing grander than to fit ourselves by education, know ledge discipline and cooperation, to make this earth beautiful and life happy and noble and clevating for all the children of men.

Someone wants to know the cause and cure of high prices. The cause is, the products are in private hards and tribute of pro- fits is exacted on every article the people use. The cure is to control making and marketing by collec- tive ownership of the machinery of production and distribution, which would end the whole profit system and give the people every thing at actual labor cost.

SCOUT WORK NOT PARADING
Quoted by National Council of t
Boy Scouts of America.)

1t isn't strange with the whole world
at war and millions of men training
at gun-drills that some boys will get
the gun-drill fever. No doubt they
think they can help their country in
that way. Let's see about that, says
a scout official in answering a scout
who wants to drill with guns.
Uncle Sam has asked the boy scouts
to serve in the first, the second and
the third Liberty loan campaigns; he
has enlisted them as his dispatch bear
ers in the drive against Hun propa-
ganda in America he has given them
a big and important job in boosting
the sale of Thrift and War Savings
stamps; but as far as have heard he
hasn't asked single boy scout to put
a gun to his shoulder and drill.
Why hasn't Uncle Sam given guns
to his boys? Because he knows they
can be a thousand times more helpful
in winning the war in other ways. The
youngster parading around with rifle
no doubt is a splendid fellow, and
eager to help; but in this particular
case he is on the wrong track.
The boy scout movement is now, al.
ways has been and always will be
nonmilitaristic organization, and gun
drills do not have a place in it's pro-
gram of activities. The best military
experts in the country do not believe
Id gun drills for boys of scout age.
And that is only one of the many rea-
sons why military gun drill and ''tin
soldering activities are not made
part of scouting. There's plenty of
other more necessary things to do for
'teen-age boys. When you are older
Uncle Sam will give you the real thing
in drill, under competent officers, and
you will be taught the use of the rifle
as technical weapon the purpose of
which is to kill. For the present, in
preparation, the government wants
boys to do other and more helpful and
practical things.

Silas Allen of Whitmarsh had re-

news. In fact, more than tWO-thirds of
the inhabitants had read the contents

said:
"Private Samuel Allen home for

read the message had volunteered to
go to the station to welcome the hero.

And then silence fell between them,
and they sat there in the late twilight,
each busy with thoughts of their only
son, who was coming home to them
next day.

Then Sammie Allen, with his six feet
of husky, strapping manhood, stepped
weakly from the train leaning on his
fathers arm.
A dozen willing hands and shoulders
were offered to help him into his faith
erS machine and home. But the
wholesome life of the farm, together
with his mothers devoted care, worked
wonders and. six weeks later, the
young soldier was able to take short
walks every day, and slowly his
strength returned TO him.
One especially fine summer day,
when he was feeling much stronger
than usual, he started out to pay q
visit to his fathers old friend, Lem
Crothers, but finding the walk still a
little too much for him, he picked out
nice sandy beach spot and stretched
himself out at full length to rest. In
less than five minutes he was sound
asleep.
On the beach in front of the Croth-
ers home Aline Lee sat idly gazing out
over the smooth, blue stretch of water.
Her book lay neglected on the sand
beside her, and every little while she
would pick up pretty shell or stone
and send it splashing or Swimming out
into the water.
WELL" she reflected to herself,
chats more than I could do when /
first came here. I'm surely getting
well and strong again, thank goodness.
/ wonder how far / could throw one of
these stones. think I'll just test my
strength and see and then later I'll
walk around the beach and see if 1
can find it,
She became quite excited in her
search for shell or stone that should
be SO different from all the rest that
she would be able to recognize it later.
"Aha % she exclaimed with satisfac-
ton after a few minutes, "this one will
be just right" and she picked up a
small tightly curled shell the inside of
which was packed with fine hard sand
''The sand just makes it heavy enough
to throw" she said, unconsciously
speaking aloud in her interest. "I'll
lIy anu I'LL ilidl udlk SpOl ONcI tllcIc
on the other side of the beach" So,
standing up and taking careful aim,
she sent the little shell spinning across
the water.
Fascinated, she watched it go-and
then
Mercy, what was that?' tor a
hoarse cry burst out upon the stiffness.
Aline stood still for moment,
stunned. II must have struck some
one she decided quickly; and, fear
lending wings to her feet, she sped
around the curve of the beach and over
the hard sand to the other side.
"Oh, why did / ever do such silly
thing?" she almost sobbed in her anx-
1ety. Il may have killed someone"
And in her terror she rushed on with a
fresh burst of speed.
Hardly seeing where she went, and
running so fast that she was not able
to stop at once, Aline nearly fell over
the figure of young man sitting
against a rock, ruefully rubbing his
forehead with one hand and with the
other wiping away the little stream OF
blood that trickled down his face from
