Lending Your Money to
The Government

@. What security is behind the
War-Savings Stamp?
A. The United States Government
promises to pay SIS for each stamp on
January 1. 1923. This promise is back
ed by the faith and honor of the Unit
ed States and by the taxing power OF
the country, which is the richest Ma
tiOn in the world.
@. Why does the United States bor-
row this money?
A. To pay the expenses of the war.
O. When I lend my money to the
Government would it be safer to buy
a Government bond rather than these
War-Savings Stamps?

attached to a War-Savings Certificate
with the same security as the Liberty
900 Americans.

the interest on Liberty Bonds?
A. No. The Liberty Bond interest
is paid every six months, but the in
terest on the War-Savings Certificate
accumulates and is paid to you in one
sum, on January l, 1923.
@. Why isn't the interest paid in
the same manner on both WARSAW
ings Certificates and Liberty Bonds?
A. 1t would be very complicated
and expensive to pay interest every
six months on S. stamps and for that
~
retains the interest until January !,
1928, at which time it pays you the
compound interest and principal.
amounting to $5, the face value of the
War-Savings Stamp.
@. Shall sell Liberty Bonds to buy
War-Savings Stamps?
A. No. The security behind Liber-
ty Bonds and War-Savings Certificates
is the same. Keep your Liberty Bonds,
but buy War-Savings Stamps also.

ENGLISH PRIMATE OPPOSED TO

The most Rev. Cosmo Gordon Long,
Lord Archbishop of York and Primate
of England, who is in America at the
invitation of the War Commission of
the Episcopal Church, "to make the
spiritual unity of the two great Eng
disappearing people," is opposed to

far as national prohibition in England
is concerned, however, | tell you
frankly that l do not favor it at this

pared for it and because we cannot

restricted drinking conditions which
prevailed before the war;"

u. S. POWERS ENLARGED BY
NEW SEDITION LAW

hington.-President Wilson has
signed the sedition bill, which gives
wide powers to the postmaster gen
eral and provides penalties of 20
years. Imprisonment or fine of $10,-
900, or both, for those convicted of
uttering or printing disloyal, abusive,
profane, scurrilious, contemptuous or
abusive language about the United
States government, or the form of
government, or the flag, and for those
who are convicted Of favoring Ger
many or her allies in the present war.
The censorship section of the law
empowers the postmaster general to
refuse mail deliveries to any person
he has evidence is using the mail to
violate the provisions of the act.
Such mail will be returned to the
sender with the words "Mail to this
address unbelievable under espionage
act" plainly written or stamped upon
the outside.
Penalties under the bill would ap-
ply to those who make false reports
or statements with intent to interfere
with the operation or success of the
military or naval forces of the United
States, or to promote the success of
its enemies, or say or do anything
with intend to obstruct the sale of
government securities during the war.
They would apply to those who at
tempt to incite insubordination or
mutiny or refusal of duty in the mill
tary or naval forces, or retard re-
cruiting, or to those who speak, write,
or publish abusive language against
the uniform of the soldier or sailor or
the flag of the constitution.

VALUE OF THE TRADE UNION

Take away the trade union and you
take away the only hope the average
workingman has of bettering his con-
dition. A wage worker is not like a
ck-juggling financier; he has no
hopes of sudden wealth. Every dol
lar in his pay envelope must be
earned by hard work. He is not,
generally speaking, like the bank
clerk; he has little hopes of being
picked out and promoted. The chance
of the worker of being made super
intendent, at salary of $4,000 a
year, is about as probable as his
chance of being sent to congress. He
has nothing to sell except his labor,
and no means of getting a higher
price except through his trade union.

FOUL FORECASTLES BLOT ON
u. S. SHIPS

"Foul forecastles, the prisons of
the sea, is one reason why American
boys have turned from the sea-" says
Andrew Furuseth, president of the
International Seamen's union.
Provisions in the seamen's act can
remove this evil but vessel owners
are resisting its enforcement through
court processes while they bemoan
the scarcity of American seamen.
"They are called forecastles," says
Furuseth, "and located so far for
ward as to interfere in the least pos
sible way with the cargo or passen-
ger space. Seventy-two cubic feet per
man. Twelve square feet on the floor
or deck. 1t is usually an abominable
disease breeding place. Six feet high,
six feet long and two feet wide. "A
little too large for a coffn,. not large
enough for a grave
"This space has come down to US
from the old line-o'-battle ship. 1t is
the space needed for singing a ham
mock. Two, three, even four hunks
are placed one above the other. The
height between them makes it i'm
possible to sit up in the hunks. You
slide in and you slide out. The air
necessarily become very foul, because
the usual ventilation is through the
door or through small round openings,
which in bad weather must be closed
to keep the water out. There are no
provisions for cleanliness.
zone rather remarkable fact is that
nearly all European nations, especial
ly the real maritime nations, have
years since passed just such laws
about improved accommodations for
seamen on vessels as our congress
adopted in the seamen's act.
"The very first thing to do to get
the American to sea and to keep him
there is to give him-not the space
for accommodation on the vessel that
a prisoner gets in any modern prison,
but about one-third of that and some
little chance to keep clean. Physical
cleanliness is known to promote men
tai cleanliness. You are asking the
seamen to keep mentally clean, and
he, at least the great majority of
them, really wishes to; but he is COM
PEELED to live under conditions which
are conducive neither to physical nor
mental cleanliness nor to health. Let
US have the seamen's act enforced
and we shall have seamen and sea
power.
(The reasons advanced in the above
article for the scarcity of able sea-
men and the difficulty of obtaining
men to sail the large number of yes
sells now being launched are Identical
ly the same as those given by John
Bush, associate editor of the Leader,
in his interesting story last week.)
