In San Francisco Tom Mooney was

it. In Minnesota a governor won a
denomination through the false indict-

it. No harm was meant-iust a lit

It's the new style in American jokes.
The common people are a little dull

THE WAR SAVINGS CAMPAIGN

"Over the top with War Savings
June 2S." is the slogan of the nation
BY order of the treasury department
through the National War Savings
committee, every man, woman and
child in America win be asked to
pledge his full quota of War Savings
stamps on that day The orders Of
the treasury department make it pain
that war savings are not to be con
fined to any one class Of people. EV.
cry one is expected to pledge to buy
stamps in proportion to his ability
A. is a great nationwide movement

Regarding the War Savings cam
paign, Col Theodore Roosevelt writes
in the Kansas City Star as follows:
"Of course the primary factor in
deciding this war is and win be the
army But there can be no great
army in war today unless Il great ma.
ton stands back of it, The most inn
portant Of all our needs is immense
ly to strengthen the fighting line al
the front But it can not be perma-
nently strengthened unless the who e
nation is organized back Of the front.
We need increased production by all.
We need thrift and the avoidance Of
extravaganza and of waste of money
upon non-essentals by all We need
the investment Of our money in GOV
cinment securities by all Of us.
he govelnment through the War
Savings campaign, offers the oppor-
tunity to every individual in the ma
tion to join in a great national move
ment to secure these ends. The
treasury department proposes as q
means to achieve these ends that all
our people form themselves into
Thrift clubs, or War Savings socie-
ties. This is tho peoples war The
responsibility for the government
1tsts on the people as a whole. The
army is the peoples army. It can ba
supported only if the people invest
in the securities Of the government;
and this investment by the people
should be as nearly universal as pos
sible. All the men, all the women

psign offers them the chance to be
active members This campaign
means the announcement of thrift

and production But ii means much
more than this. 1t also means to
make our people realize their solid
arity and mutual interdependence and
to make them understand that the
governments is really theirs. There
fore, it is movement to fuse all our
unified nationality. 1t is emphatically
a movement for nationalism and pa
tllotism.
Between thirty and forty millions
of our people today own Liberty
bonds and War Savings Stamps All
OF us who come in this class have an
increased sense of loyalty and respon-
sibility to the government. The
trmeasury department has offered
through the War Savings plan great
opportunity for the entire nation to
group itself into War Savings socie-
ties or Thrift clubs and thus be of
immediate and direct service to the
government
Neither through government pro
gram and traditions nor through the
habits of the people were we in any
way prepared for this struggle We
were a spendthrift nation One OF
the roads to national unity and ma
tional force in this war is through
thrift-using the woEd to include both
