HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS
SAYS SECRETARY M'ADOO

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo
urges the purchasers of Liberty loan
bands of both the first and second
issues, to hold fast to their bonds.
They are the best investment in the
world
The secretary's statement was
called forth by the fact that Liberty
bond holders are approached from
time to time by agents seeking to in
duce them to part with their Liberty
loan bonds and take in exchange
securities which lin a number of
cases, are of a very questionable
value, and was prompted by the de-
sire to protect bondholders against
ill-advised disposition of their bonds.
The secretary expresses the hope
that every purchaser of Liberty
bond will realize that the only gen.
uine help that he gives his govern
ment is keeping his bond as an in
vestment so long as it is possible for
him to do so. He states, however,
that no just objection lies to the
sale of a Liberty bond when real
necessity exists for its sale.

The War Behind The Front

has passed into the realm of things
that might have been.
The impossibility of a German
victory-German threats of a great
spring offensive notwithstanding
becomes clear if we look at few
simple facts. Thus. when the Allies
hurled the German army back at
the Marine, France had 100000 men
in the fighting line and England a
scant 100000. Such forces as they
had were out-numbered in the ratio
of five to three; and they were out
ranged in artillery and outnumbered
and outwatched in all the things
that go to make up military equip
ment. W. s .a..l
Since the Marine, the French army
at the front has grown from 1,5OO,-
900 to 100000, and the British
army from 100000 to 100000. In
1914, Germany had a potential army

Germany continues to carry on
the war, not because she believes
she can obtain a military decision
at the front, but because she hopes
to win against the morale of the
civil population behind the front.
Her chance of military decision
slipped out of her hands long ago.
In 1914 when she set a. rear. guard
of reservists at her back door on
the Russian front, and hurled the
flower of her army against France,
Germany believed she. had a firm
grip upon that world victory which
was to be the fruition of forty years
of preparation; but Joffre pried the
Prussian fingers loose at the Marine,
and at Verdun and the Somme the
French and British tore the coveted
victory entirely from her grasp.
From those days to these the Ger
man general staff have known that
their dream of a military victory

EAGER TO BUY LIBERTY BONDS

Despite the fact that the third
Liberty loan campaign has not been
started. the general executive COM
mittee of the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners has author
lied the purchase of $4,000 of
third Liberty loan bonds, a letter
from Frank Duffy, general secre-
tary of the organization, to the
treasury department announces.

active than ever in this matter,
Duffy wrote.
Duffy estimates that his organi-

worth of second Liberty loan bonds.

chase of $4,000 worth Of Canadian
Victory loan bonds.

people are intelligently concerned
only with the things which are close
at hand and readily obvious. They
look, as it were through a knot
hole instead of using the siXty-de-
gree angle of vision which every in
telligent man ought to have; and
consequently such people, and it is
the great majority, are peculiarly
sensitive to the suggestions of a
propaganda, which is as subtle and
difficult to detect as it is all-pervad-
ing and pernicious. The large ma
jority of the rumors of disaster to
our troops; of discomforts, sickness
es land deaths in the cantonments ;
of delays, disorganization, and even
of graft in the great war industries
are of enemy origin. And the pity
of it all is that, unconsciously, there
are thousands of well-meaning citi-
zens who, because they have an ILL
regulated appetite for the scandal
Gus and the shocking, assist this
enemy propaganda by repeating the
enemy fumors, too often with en-
bellishments of their own.
Without shutting his eyes to de-
fects or foregoing his inalienable
right to criticism, it is the duty of
every citizen to cultivate in these
times a stress of spirit of healthy
optimism. Thoughts are things. I"
A lie persistently repeated and idly
passed on, even though we believe
it to be lie, begins, by virtue of
it's constant reiteration, to take on
in our minds a color of truth
Therefore, it is the duty of every
true patriot among US, whenever he
stumbles upon one of these calamity
howlers, to ask him at once for his
authority, and bring it sharply to
his mind, that, whether he intends
to or not, he is actively aiding the
enemy in his attempt to shatter the
morale of the civilian poulation back

All England Is Confronted

Line
CONSUMPTION
BELOW LIMITS
Thirty-Five Per Cent. Re-
duction in Supply
Bad in France

London Jan. s.--Although It has beer
widely printed and generally understood
that the meat shortage is only tempo
rary, after the experience tens of thou
sands of people must have undergone at
the past week end il is idle to mince
words. The whole country is confronted
with a meat famine. The experts of the
ministry of food give repeated assurances
that the contraction of supplies ia TEN.
porary and that in a few days, or weeks.
or months, the situation will come to be
nearer normal. But the fact remains
that the present amount of meat which
finds its way TO the retailers shop is so
much reduced that the national con-
sumption of meat has perforce fallen far
below any voluntary limits advocated by
the food economists.
From every part of the country. from
Lancashire, South Wales. Devonshire,
the Home counties and the Midlands
come the reports that the butchers shops
are closed or emptied within an hour OF
their opening. Every district in London
tells the same story. Many families
missed the Sunday joint this week. Some
who could afford to pay swollen prices
for poultry and game or other substi-
tutes went without meat for the sake of
others less well able to do better. In
spite of this great numbers of these 9th
ers, including many of the poorest
classes. went without meat because they
could not get it. The fact is that what
ever may be the reason for the present
dcarth and whatever relief time may
bring, the real pinch now is being felt
acutely in one of the primary articles of
food.
While the scarcity continues and with
out waiting for the food controllers
committees to move, all whose house
holds that have the means OF procuring |
alternative dishes should abstain from
the use of meat in order that the work |
ingman and his family, whose kitchen |
purse is less adaptable, may have that
substantial food on which their strength |
depends
So far as London is concerned the
broad fact of the situation is stated in
the first paragraph of the report of the
superintendent of the central markets:
THE supplies for the week ending to-
day, Saturday, aggregated 1917 tons, as
against 6,46l in the corresponding week
OF last year, decrease OF Z,4S3 tons or
1874 per cent The explanation of this
falling off has been given, and expecta
tions are held out that the shortage will
presently be remeded. Certainly there
is no cause for panic if the experts of
the food ministry know their business.
Voluntary rationing on a scale which
is based on aseertained fig
ures and careful calculations permitted
weekly consumption of two pounds of
meat per head, according to the director
Of the meat supplies at the ministry of
