ASKED TOpUT BACK PAY
IN 4TH LIBERTY BONDS
Railroad Employees Advised by Di-
rector McAdoo to Lend q. S. Re
suit Of Recent Wage Increase.

Railroad employees were asked to-
day by Director General McAdoo to
invest the back pay which they get as
a result Of the recent wage increase
in bonds of the fourth liberty loan,
which will open a month from today.
NO employe can make better use
of his back pay" said the director
general, in a circular to be distributed
together with pay envelopes. than
to lend it to the government at in
terest, thus securing an investment
building up a reserve for rainy day.
Il want the railroad men of the
United States to do more, If pos
sible, than anybody else, because I
want them to be among the first al
ways in patriotism, in service and in
sacrifice to our great and glorious
country. We have the kaiser groggy:

Woman liberty loan workers in
cities and country communities
throughout the nation were notified
in letter sent out today by the ma
tional woman's liberty loan commit
tee to start organization by Septem-
her for the loan campaign which
opens September %. Reports to
headquarters indicate that more
women than ever before have volun-
teered for active campaign work
for the fourth loan, stimulated by
the growing desire of women to par
ticipate in the war. Hundreds of
booths will be maintained by women
at county and state agricultural fairs
this fall for soliciting bond sub
scriptions.

DENIES SAVINGS ARE
TO BE CONFISCATED

Reports that the government might

denied by Secretary McAdoo and de-

ganda-
my attention has been called" :"
said the Secretary, ''to an insidious
propaganda that is being carried on,
probably by secret agents Of Ger
many. to SOW seeds Of distrust in the
minds Of savings bank depositors by
false rumors that the United States
government is contemplating the
confscation Of the savings Of the
people. The absurdity of these state
ments is manifest.
'In order, however, to allay the fears
of the few who might be alarmed by
such reports, l repeat that these ru-
mors are wholly baseless."

Bonds Oversubscribed.

To meet the excess of $63,6o5. .621.
Congress decided upon the method
adopted during the war Of 1912 and
authorized several issues of Treasury
notes and government stock. The re-
suits were far different, however, for
while the issues during the war of
1 S12 were disposed of with great diff
ficulty and one issue, at least, had to
be sold below par, the Issues of 1916
were in such demand that they were
oversubscribed, and under one of the
loan acts, when subscriptions were
invited for s1S.000.000. bids were re-
ceived for s57.723.oo0 and these were
eighth of l per cent to 2 per cent
more than par.
This was the first loan negotiated on
a basis of this kind since the founda-
tion of the government and it was due
entirely to the splendid prosperity of
the times and the solidity of public
credit.
Following the war period the coun-
try continued to expand comm ercially,
the discovery of gold in California
had a marvellous effect upon national
prosperity and immigration continued
upon a larger scale than ever before,
more immigrants coming between
1S45 and 1855 than in the preceding
twenty-five years. The addition of the
large territory ceded by Mexico in
creased importations, and the entire
western country possessed resources
which were only I'm an embryo state of
development, but which offered such
wonderful possibilities that it was
generally realized that the nation was
at the threshold Of a new commercial
era
While the national debt had been
increased from $15.550, 900 to $68, ,304,-
900 by war loans, this was reduced so
rapidly that in 1857 the principal was
but S2S,700,000. In this f1ourishipg
condition the country approached the
civil war.
Evening star., 1918-08-28

1t has been said that the real imam
cial foundation of the United States
was laid during the period interven-
ing between the war Of 1872 and the
war with Mexico. which began in
May, 1916.
It was during that period that the
people began to feel their nationhood
in a marked degree. Settlements were
extended to the Pacific coast and a
continual stream of desirable immi-
grants flocked to the United States.
In the two or three years imme-
diately preceding the Mexican war
more than $4,000 immigrants landed
on American shores. Every one was
welcome, as the industrial and agri-
cultural expansion of the country was
so great that there were splendid op-
portunities. BY 1916 there were 5000
miles of railroad lines in operation
and they were being rapidly extended.
Another important event which had
direct bearing on the financial pros
perity of the United States was the
removal of import duties by England
in 1S42. This with the growth of the
manufacturing industry in England.
caused tremendous Importation from
this country, particularly of cotton
and food products. It had stimulat-
ing effect upon the entire nation.
Sound Finances.
The financial system of the country
rested upon a sound basis Prejudice
against internal taxation, which had
manifested itself during the early
days and which was felt especially
during the war of 1912, had disap-
peared entirely. and except for GER
tain political measures and those of
a minor nature the people were firmly
united and cheerfulIy met the excise
duties which the exigencies of the
times placed upon them. The banking
system had been reorganized. sub
treasures had been established and
the country was far better prepared
to enter into war with Mexico than
it had been to undertake the second
war with England in 1872.
The Mexican war was of short du-
ration, lasting only about two years,
and it caused no serious financial de-
preston The revenue from import
duties and internal taxation was such
that there was not need to adopt a
plan Of emergency taxation. with the

States government bureaus and other
agencies in 1900 families.
THE report cites records OF the
United States bureau of labor statis-
tics. which show an average increase
in retail prices of fifteen leading arti-
cles Of food between midsummer or
1914 and June, 1918, of about 81 per
cent Prices in midsummer, 1914,
were very close to the average for
1913. For more than a year there
after no extraordinary fluctuation in
in 1916 there began definite upward
movement which, with slight seasonal
variations. continued until, in June.
1918, food prices were the highest of
any month during the war up to that
time.
"All articles of food show a con-
siderable increase in price since 1914
Exceptional advances were recorded in
prices of flour. lard and corn meal
The most sensational advance occurred
in the case Of potatoes. which. in the
spring of 1917. were quoted at more
than three times the 1914 price; in
1918. however. the greater part of this
advance had been eliminated.
