Chicago, April 29.-William G. Nc
AdOo, secretary of the treasury, ar
rived in Chicago Sunday with a heart
ening message of the nations third
Liberty loan achievements, a glowing
tribute to the ardOr with which Amer
lean citizens everywhere are meeting
the country's financial exigencies, and
determined plea for the unmitigat-
ed strength which must characterize
the final week of the campaign.
If Americas rural population suf-
fered cOntumely during previous bond
subscriptions Mr. McAdoO's enthusiast
tic commentator of the farmers 10y
atty during the present loan campaign
should afford grateful encouragement.
To the women of the United States, to
railroad employees; in fact, ito all
classes of people everywhere" Mr.. Nc
Adoo offers the approval of the gov
eminent for IAN unequaled and spirit
ed degree of support.
In a statement issued upon his de-
parture from the Art institute, Secre-
tary McAdOo said:
Having just completed trip
through the South and Southwest,
during which l have visited many
middle-sized cities and towns, l have
been deeply impressed with the splen-
did work being performed by Liberty
loan workers everywhere.
THE farmers of the country and
the people living in the less densely
populated districts have supported the
third Liberty loan with unusual effect
and their subscriptions in many Of
the agricultural states have not only
been highly encouraging, but show
that the farmers of the United States
are awakening to the gravity of the
war and are determined to back their
country to the limit in this great
struggle for human liberty. 1 hope
the farmers will continue their good
work.
All Glasses Enthusiastic.
81 am very proud of the splendid
work the officers and employees Of
the railroads of the United States are
doing for the third Liberty loan.
Their enthusiasm and loyalty have
been conspicuous. All classes of the
people everywhere 1 have been are
showing q wonderful enthusiasm and
a degree of spirited support unequaled
IN either the first or second Liberty
loan campaign.
1.-The people of the big cities, ex-
cellent as their efforts for the loan
work to rival the results being
achieved in the smaller towns and
country districts.
",rht people of the inland sections
Of the country are just as determined
TO fight this war for liberty and for
the vindication of the rights of Amer
lea to victorious conclusion as are
the people Of the Atlantic, the Pacific
and the gulf seaboards. 1t is indeed a
heartening thing to travel through
the country now and observe the 10y
atty, the spirit Of self-sacrifice and the
determined purpose of the people gem
orally. The soul of America is
awake with an intensity and unity,
which spells the doom of military
despotism and the triumph of world
democracy.
Need Billion More.
"But six days of the third Liberty
loan campaign remain. The $1,000
100000 mark has been passed but
nearly S1,OO0,OO0,O0O remains to be
raised if the nation is to reach the
minimum of S3,00O,000,0O0 set for this
loan. America will not be satisfied
be won with minimums. This is a
war of maximums. The soldier and
the sailor give the maximum for their
country when they give their lives.
The civil population must go the maxi
mum also, but they do not have to
give their lives to do so. They can
go the maximum by oversubscribing
every Liberty loan, by producing, and
producing to the limit, the things re-
ouired to sustain our armies in the
field.
During the remaining days of the
campaign l earnestly hope that the
men. women and children of the ma
ton will throw themselves into this
battle for liberty with the whole
hearted enthusiasm and self-sacrit1ce
displayed by our noble soldiers and
sailors.
America has never failed to do
Pny great job winch she has under
taken, and she viii not fail now II
every one does his full duty. We
must heavily oversubscribe the third
Liberty loan and serve notice on the
kaiser and his military autocracy that
America will fight until doomsday, K
necessary, to secure liberty and JUS
tee for the world"
Following a dinner, the treasury
head retired with view to recuperat-
ing sufficiently to review the sailors
ar the Great Lakes Naval Training
station, preliminary TO his departure
for Grand Rapids. Mich, where he
will be the principal at war meet
