United War Work Campaign

Beginning November 18th and
continuing for one week, there
will be a United War War Work
drive for funds to be apportioned
between the Y. M. c.. A., the Y.
w. G. A., National Catholic War
Council, Jewish Welfare Board.
Salvation Army, War Camp Com
munlty Service. and the Ameri-
can Library Association, all of
which societies are contributing
to the aid and comfort of our
soldier boys across the sea. The
drive is for the purpose of rails
ing $170, 500, 900 to increase the
usefulness OF these societies in
the great and noble work they
are doing. The raising of this
fund is just as important war
work as the purchasing of Lib
erty bonds, and to the relatives
and friends of the soldier boys it
is even of greater Importance, as
it is the only means at command
for supplying the soldiers with
rest and recreation huts, and Civ
ing the boys a touch of home life.
Hardly a letter is received in this
country from the boys lover
there" but what they sing the
praises of some of these institu-
tions, and urge upon their people
at home to contribute literally
for their support. Let us people
at home heed the plea of the
boys for financial support.

The war situation is beginning
to take on a brighter hue. The
first break in the German world
conquest scheme came with the
unconditional surrender of Bull
garia, and with the rapid strides
being made in Turkey that coun-
try, too, will be glad shortly to
lay down her arms. Then an
other swift drive by the Italians
against Austria, with further al
lied assistance, will soon bring
that power to it's knees. Then
will come the hard part of the
war which will mark the finish
the invasion of Germany and the
occupation of Berlin, where the
worlds peace council table can
be spread with no chair for a
Hohenzollern. Buy a Liberty
Bond as a Jubilee.

W. H. Hays, the republican
national chairman, struck the
true keynote in his recent mes
sage to republicans all over the
land, when he said: "There is
no geography, political or physi-
cal, in the patriotism of this coun-
try. Democrats and republicans
alike love their flag and are ready
to die for it. We continually in
sist for all parties that the war
be kept out of partisan politics,
and that partisanship be kept out
of the war" This is the spirit
of our democracy that places
this government so high in the
estimation of the world. While
we may be divided in political
opinions these political opinions
are never permitted to divide the
country in time of war. We for
get for the time that we are DEM
ocrats or republicans, and we all
enlist under the big national par
ty of loyalists to America and the
flag.

Perhaps it was wise to have
the Liberty Loan campaign take
three weeks out of the political
campaign, as it gives the people
the opportunity to put patriotism
above partisan politics. 1t will
also give US all a rest from a
wearing strain on the nerves.
A two weeks campaign is long
enough at any time for an off
year election.

If it is any satisfaction to the
Holbrook contingent who visited
this city last Saturday, the editor
of this paper is willing to admit
that the city council is not edit

responsible for it's utterances. Is
the city council Of Holbrook ed
iting the papers in that city, or
in any way responsible for the

The Fourth Liberty Loan

The campaign is now on for
the Fourth Liberty Loan, and it
is up to the people of this coun-
try to show their faith and con-
fidence in the administrations
policy of pushing the war to
final and definite conclusion by
subscribing the full amount of
the bond issue promptly. The
money must be provided to keep
the armies in the field. and to
hold back your subscription until
it. has to be pried out of you is
hardly the way to give enthusias-
tic support to the government.
1t is the millions of cheerful CIV
ers with their little mites that
gives heart to the President, even
more than the subscriptions of
big blocks from the men of
wealth and large corporations.
The President wants to know that
the people are standing squarely
behind him in this titanic strug-
gle to crush out the Hun. and the
way to bring this intelligence to
him without a shadow of doubt
is for every man and woman to
rise as one body without any hes
itation or quibbling, and demand
the privilege of loaning their
money to aid in the glorious
cause.
1t is no excuse to say you do
not have the $50 or $10O to buy,
because the money is not de-
manded in onespayment, but is
carried over in five installments
covering four months, and but
very little thrift is demanded to
save the money to meet the pay
ments. And thrift is the one
thing the government wants the
people to practice; so in the pur-
chase of a bond you are meeting
two essential requirements so
necessary to win the war-prac
ticing economy and loaning the
savings to the government.
Catch step with the soldier, and
with every step he advances in
the face of the enemy, keep dig
ging down in your pocket for the
money to keep him fed, and
clothed, and supplied with am
munition. You can be hero at
home as we'll as on the battle
field, if you have the clear con-
science you are doing your full
duty at home supporting the gov
ernment. When the boys come
marching home again your Lib
erty Bond will be your certificate
of loyalty to them while they
were in the trenches. There is
no draft age limit to purchasers
of Liberty bonds, and the peo-
pie who fail in their duty are
slackers just as surely as the man
who tries to evade army service
under the draft. Don't be a |
Stacker. Be patriot, and come
across, not with what you can
spare, but what you know will be
a sacrifice to meet. The greater
the sacrifice you make, the great
er will be your decorations for
heroism.

The state council of defense of
California are considering the
proposition of issuing an order
shortening the hours for retail
stores to 10 a. m. to 4 p. m.
While this seems to be rather a
drastic order there is some merit
in the question of shorter hours
for clerks in the stores, and the
Arizona Council of Defense
should give this subject some con-
sideration. There certainly could
be no valid objection to shorten
ing the hours of retail stores
from 8 a. m. to 5 p. M, except
ing Saturdays, when the closing
hours could be extended to 8 p.
m. if thought necessary.

1t is clearly apparent that Tom
Campbell cannot please the dem
ocratic newspapers. Early in the
summer Mr.. Campbell agreed
with the State Liberty Loan Com
mittee that he would give his
time during the fourth Liberty
Loan campaign in this State. and
now that he is living up to his
agreement the democratic papers
are charging him with playing
politics. Had Mr.. Campbell re-
pudiated his agreement, and Civ
en- his time to his political cam
paign these same papers would
be charging him with lack of 10y
atty in not keeping his agreement
to work for the Liberty Loan.
