United States and widely advertised in news
papers, and sold with the full knowledge of the
Government. Many financial institutions, and
thousands Of loyal citizens. still own these bonds
The bonds were sold by the same institutions
that sold French, English, Italian and other war
bonds. They were sold at "a cents on the dollar,
and recommended by fnanciers as good invest
ments, paying return Of nearly7 per cent
Some professional agitators have undertaken to
ma Ike it appear that MIR. Busch bought the German
bonds to aid Germany in making war on the
United States When these bonds were sold it
was publicly a}nonced that the funds were to be
used to establish commercial credits for Germany
in this country-credts such as the allied countries
enjoyed through the sale of their bonds.
The fact that this transaction ,oas in October,
! 1915. end that the United STATES did not declare
war on Germany until April 1917, should set at
rest the ridiculous charges circulated principally by
paid agitotors retectng on the loyalty of Anheuser
Busch.
Anheuser-Busch was founded upon the solid
rock OF Americanisn and grew to be great insti-
tuition under the protection of American democ-
racy. The late Adolphus Busch, for many years
its president laid the foundations of the character
of Anheuser-Busch SO broad and deep that this
institution always has represented in the industrial
world vastly more than beverage industry. The
name OF Anheuser-Busch has been associated with,
and will continue to be associated with, great
industries in various fields of manufacture,
finance, railroadng, mining. hotel building and
operation, etc.
The intensely loyal organization, created by
Adolphus Busch, and strengthened under succeed
ing management, always will be found fighting to
uphold American ideals of government and
American principles of fair play.
Anheuser Busch is ready to sacrifice everything
except loyalty to country, and its own honor. to
seroe the Government in bringing this .odr to oic-
torious conclusion.
We wish to express our gratitude to our dealers
and the thousands of loyal friends whose cooper
alton and support have been an invaluable asset
to this institution. We assure them that after the
war Anheuser-Busch again will take its place
among the important and indispensable industrial
institutions Of America.

The Governments conservation program makes
i necessary to suspend the beverage business Of
the Anheuser-Busch plants. We consider it
privilege to cooperate with the Government in
making its war program effective and to comply
with every request and suggestion Of the Govern
: ment to the end that German armies may be more
quickly defeated and German autocracy over
thrown-to the end that an enduring peace may
be established that will insure justice and protec-
ton to all nations and all peoples and make future
wars impossible.
We stand squarely behind the Government in the
prosecution of the war to uictorious conclusion.
We regard the sacrifices we are making, amounting
to many millions of dollars as insignificant and in
consequential when think of the benefits that uOil
accrue to the world under the terms of the unselsh
and altrdistic yar aims Of the United States as
defined BY our President.
The Anheuser Busch Brewing Association Is pre-
eminently the foremost and largest institution of its

The Anheuser-Busch plants are equivalent to a

manufacturing units in the group Of plants-one,
the new Bevo botding and shipping plant. with
equipment. costing approximately $l0,000,000.
and being the best industrial plant Of any char
acter in the world.
Anheuser-Busch pays annually more than
100000 in Federal. State and Municipal taxes.
Anheuser-Busch employs at good wages from
5000 to $500 persons
Anheuser-Busch industries support nearly

reports. :.
In. this connection we consider it opportune to
50 clearly define the attitude of this institution and
its officers that there can be no further excuse for
misrepresentation.
As an american institution, founded by Aneri-
cans more than go years ago, and continuously
owned and operated BY americans, Anheuser Busch
has Enthusiastically expressed its An1ericanism BY SUBJ
