GOVERNMENT ASKS FOR
BLACK WALNUT TIMBER
william Guggcnhcim. Of American
Defense society, Urges Patriotic
Americans to Offcr Their Trees.

In com pliance with an urgent ap-
peal from the LATED s ates govern
nlent. William Guggenhsjm. chairman
OF the army and navy com mtttee of
American Defense society. has issued
a call for all patriotic Americans to
offer their black walnut tr es so as TO
helm win the war. Mr.. ouggenheim
has offered all walnut timber upon his
beautiful lake shore estate at Fort
Washington. l.. L.. for governmental
purposes and no doubt there are
many other places on Long Island that
contain 'milar valuable timber.
Through the experience OF the
foreign builders OF propellers for air
craft we learn that there is no wood
as suitable as black walnut for this
purpose said Mfr. Guggenheim to-
day. Wood for propellers must be
absolutely straight grained, not too
hard, or too heavy and capable Of
standing the enormous. AR resistance
involved in revolutions running up to
1900 or more minute, Through ex-
periments conducted at the la laboratory
OF the Washington university, tests
have been shown that there is no
wood that is SO peculiarly suitable for
this purpose. Black walnut has also
been used for gun stocks for a great
many years. This wood by reason OF
its weight and it's possession OF all re-
ouirements of hne cabinet work has
been approved for these war purposes.

SADIE for a short while last Sunday.
The Freemans were pioneers of Pail
SADIE, and were among the villages
most honored residents for several
years. Mr.. Freeman repotts his
mother and father both well, round
ing out two well-spent lives in the
golden era with the sunset glow fall
ing across their paths in mellow
radiance. Mr.. L. C. Freeman is car
rying on card board factory at
Chatham, N. Y, some twenty-five
miles southeast Of Albany. He came
to New Yok this trip fearing sug1-
cal operation which knowing
specialist said was necessary, but
which a more knowing one finally
said wasn't necessary at all, and he
went on home to Nassau with his
wife looking as fresh and attractive
as her Pa]isade friends remember
her. both quite happy, and looking
to be ON their honeymoon, overJoyed
at escaping an unhappy ordeal.

Most OfLberty Bonds
Sold Through Banks
Says Special Report

The wide distribution of Liberty
Bonds of the first three loans is re-
vealed in statement issued by the
Comptroller of Currency at Washing
ton. The report shows that of the
$9,975, 100000 Of bonds issued to sub
scribers in the three loans, more than
$4,000, 100000 passed through the ma
tional banks. These banks, however,
now retain less than one-twentieth of
the bonds issued.
The total amount of bonds Of the
three loans, remaining in possession
of the national banks June 20, 1918,
was $408, $4,000, or less than half a
billion Of the total issue of nearly ten
billion dollars.
The total resources of the national
banks on that date were $17,839, 000,-
900. The Liberty Bonds still held BY
the national banks, therefore, repre-
sent only 2.29 per cent. Of fthe total
resources.
In two ways the report is gratifying
to the nation at large as we'll as to
persons having large dealings with
the national banks. The bonds have
been scattered among citizens of the
Republic, without the necessity of
calling to any appreciate extent up
on the funds of the banks to absorb
the loans. Money in the national
banks, therefore, has been left free
to meet the industrial and commercial
needs of the contry.
Only s55, 900 of Liberty Bonds
Of the Third Loan are held by nation
al banks in the Eastern District,
which includes New York, Philadel-
phia and other large cities. In the
New England States the entire bank
holdings of the Third Loan bonds are
only $4,017,000.
The Treasury Department, it is
stated, confidently expects that the
Fourth Loan will be absorbed by the
ing the national banks still free to
provide for the business and industry
of the country.
