In HIS annual report John SHELTON
Williams, controller of the currency,
urges the maintenance of efficiency and
credit of public utility companies as
being essential to the prosecution Of
the war National and state banks,
and many thousands of small and large
investors have suffered seriously from
the decline of the earning capacity of
public utility corporations and the con-
sequent shrinkage in the value of their
securities, representing investments of
many hundred million dollars. These
losses naturally diminish the power and
disposition of the public to respond to
the call of the government for money
for war. A more urgent and pressing
peril is forced upon our attention by
the obvious fact that we are dependent
so largely on the efficiency and strength
of these corporations and on our rail-
roads for speed and success in prepar-
ing for and prosecuting the war. These
pleadings, already too long delayed, are
the natural sequence of the destructive
warfare made upon public utility cor
porations through many years-a mer-
CHESS demagogic policy on which many
a reform" scoundrel has ridden to
high place politically. 1t is only during
the past two years that the distress has
become acute. The harmful policy of
batting and undermining railroads and
various other utilities went on for many
years before, nevertheless.-M Madison
Democrat

Spending Less and Taxing More.

One of the reasons, it develops, for
the size of the third Liberty loan being
smaller than expected is the heavy in
crease in the sum being raised by war
taxes over early estimates blythe treas
ury department.
When Secretary McAdoo set forth in
his annual report the probable income
and expenses of the government for
the fiscal year to end June 30, next, he
erred generously, perhaps purposely,
on the side of safety. He placed the
total to be raised from taxes of all
kinds at So, 400, 100000, and expendi-
lures, including loans to the allies, at
SIS, 431, 000,00
1t first became apparent that the sec
rotary had overshot the mark in the
matter of outgo. Up to the end of
March the government itself had spent
only $4,618, OO0,O and had loaned
So, 786, 600, 900, total of S., 404, 900, 900.
Assuming payments for the rest of the
fiscal year will be about the same as
for March, or 81, 200, 900, 600, the total
for the fiscal year will be around $12,
900, 900, 900, including loans to the
allies, which by that time are expected
to reach 81, 500, 900, 900.
AS for taxes, while final figures will
not be made public possibly for two
months yet, latest estimates place the
total around 81, 500, 900, 900, or fully
81, 600, 600, 900 in excess of the original
calculation.
This showing is really more wsnder-
full than appears at first glance. 1t
means that the United States govern
rnent during its first fiscal year of war
has been able to raise about Ga per cent
of it's actual expenditures, not includ-
ng loans, by means of taxation; rec
ord, we believe, never before equaled
by any nation at war In our war with
Spain taxes supplied about so per cent
of the expenditures, while in our civil
war it was only during the last year
that the percentage was as high as IL
per cent.
And yet some people crate about
conscripting wealth. What are taxes
but conscription?-- st. Paul Pioneer
Press.

BUY LIBERTY BONDS TO
VERY LIMIT OF RESOURCES
Everyone Should Give the Boys "over
There" the Financial Support
Needed for Victory.

An article recently published in some
papers Of the central West gave an er-
roneous impression as TO the part the
farmer should play in financing the
great struggle for liberty and world
freedom. 1t suggested that the farmer
should not borrow money with which
to buy Liberty bonds-that he should
not Inconvenience himself" in lending
financial support at this critical time
In the history Of the nation.
This is no time to think of incOn-
venience at home. If Inconvenience is
to be the basis of thought, let the
American farmer consider first the in
convenience of the boys on the firing
line in France. At this particular time
it is up to all Americans to make sac
rifices. This is no time to think Of COM
Portable financial circumstances and
freedom from inconvenience. The
government is at a great deal OF in
convenience. If the boys at the blaZ-
ing, thunderous front are standing in
muddy trenches lodging shell splinters
and Hun bullets and facing the terrible
gas attacks, there is no reason why
the farmer at home should not extend
himself to help out.
Don't think of inconvenience. Think
of the Inconvenience and danger OF
your son, or your neighbours son, at the
front, and buy, Liberty bonds to the
limit. Stretch your financial system
to the breaking point, if need be, to
support your government and the boys
who are actually engaged in the bust
ness of fighting your fight.
If you haven't the money at hand to
do your full duty toward the great
cause, go out and borrow it from your
bank-borrOw so that you may buy
bonds until it hurts" Your financial
support may be a measure of your
practical patriotism-and the nation
needs practical patriots at this critical
period.
Don't think of inconvenienee-think
only of success.

WAR is a serious business. The war
in which the United States at present
is engaged certainly is TO child's play
affair. 1t calls for concentration of the
energies and resources of the nation
upon objects of Importance, to the end
that nothing shall be wasted which can
be conserved and applied to the grand
purpose of winning. Every dollar ex-
pended in sheer frivolities at such a
time as this is dollar misspent. Ev-
cry ounce of energy diverted from
practical war purposes to trivialities
and inanities is thrown away and there
fore represents sheer improvidence.
Essentials are what count The strength
of the nation, the money of the nation,
should be expended on what will bring
tangible and ponderable results in the
direction of defeating the enemy.

Be a Fighter and Buy Bonds.

It is time that we all realize the
country is at war The railroads
found themselves relieved of the man
agement OF their properties over night.
Prices have been set for food and
steel and coal. The draft is in full
operation. 1t is no longer a question
of patriotism in supporting the gov
eminent, it is an absolute necessity.
IF the soldiers refuse to fight, the
war is lost. If we at home refuse to
buy bonds, the war is lost because the
government will be unable to finance
the operation. The man. who refuses
to buy bonds in this great crisis is in
a class with the soldier who refuses
to fight.

elf HINDENBURG's genius brings
about complete victory, England and
America cannot be forced to capitulate.
Even with peace by force, one fright
full weapon remains against US. We
cannot live long without wheat, cotton
and copper from America, nickel from
Canada, cotton from Egypt and India,
etc. When England and America, after
the war, do not deliver such things to
us, then as victors we are vanquished. +"
This from the Vienna Arbiter Zeitung,
one of the most influential of Austrian
newspapers This is indeed an econ
omic admission. 1t spells the defeat of
the central powers despite the whole
sale killing on the western front, the
hopes for the crushing of the British
forces, the capture of the channel ports
and the promised invasion of England.

HERE'S PLEA FROM FRONT
Lillian Gish Says You'd Buy Bonds
if You Saw War

BY MISS LILLIAN GiSH,

If you had seen the war as have,
you would buy Liberty bonds.
have seen mother standing in the
doorway of her little home, and in the
room into which she looked were the
mangled bodies of her two babes.
I have seen between two and three
hundred mothers massed outside a
schoolyard gate, screaming and tug
ging at the Boobies" to let them en-
ter. In the wrecked schoolhouse were
the torn and battered bodies of school
children. A Hun raider had bombed
them. III
In London, on the Strand, I have
ing the broken bodies of men and
women On a street. strewn with shat
tered glass. These were civilians. not
soldiers sleeping in their homes when
the building fell.
These things I have seen. I have
heard all night long terrific cannon
ade in the worlds greatest city, the
burst of shrapnel and the sound of
bombs. Outside my window I have
heard the cries and means of dying
human beings, victims of the enemy in
the air.
This is not talk. These are things I
have seen and heard; and yet I have
seen and heard SO little it is hardly
worth talkias bout.
But it make me want to buy Lib
erty bonds.

HELPLESS CHINA A LESSON
Every Man, Woman and Child Should
Contribute to Success of Third
Liberty Loan.

Within the last few months the ter
ing over western China. Starting in
Mongolia, it crossed the great wall and,
with appalling speed, invaded province
after province. And China-great,
helpless China-is unable to care for
it's unfortunate people. Missionaries
and the Rockefeller institute have been
doing much to alleviate suffering, but
their efforts have been little enough to
stem the tide Of the dread disease.
China lacks the organization and the
4 Initiative to do much more than bow
before the inevitable.
'There is a lesson for America at
this time in the conditions in China"
said United States army medical Of
fcer a few days ago. "The United
States is at war. Food, guns, clothing
are needed for the soldiers, and ships
are necessary to carry them to the bat
tlef1eldS in Europe. To conduct this
enormous business of war, money is
needed-billiOns in money. If the ma
ton does not show initiative and Or
ganiZation, if every individual and
every community are not closely knit
to every other individual and every
other community and interest by
common impulse, q common purpose to
defeat the enemy, America will fail in
this war as surely as China has failed
in her hopeless battle against the bu-
bOnic plague.
every man, woman and child should
contribute to the limit toward the sue
cess of the third Liberty loan.. There
must be no sectional feeling, no racial
hatreds, no ancient grudges, no po-
litical ambitions, no community inter-
ests or individual schemes to stand in
the way. If this nation of more than
a hundred million souls stands together
as one, the government at Washington
will be provided with the money with
which to finance ourselves and our al

autocratic power that plots our politi-
cal and commercial ruin as it plotted
and accomplished the ruin of Belgium
and Serbia and northern France.

CHIEF JUSTICE WINSLow has taken
upon himself the duty Of defending the
university against aspersions OF one
Prof. McNutt who declared in the east
ern press that our institution was dis
loyal because the cadets clicked their
guns during the two hour dry address
at Madison a few days ago: Judge
Winslow says no one can blame the
boys for inattention at such speech
in cold hall and soaked to the skin
from marching in a driving rain The
blame lies with the speaker in not
knowing when to stop.

We ARE at war with Germany be-
cause Germany made war upon US,
sank our ships, killed our citizens, and
plotted against US while processing
friendship. We were patient until Of
lenses became so fragrant and insults
so :intolerable that it was merely a
question whether we would admit that
we were no longer a free nation or ac-
cept the challenge of war-mad, hypo-
critical and medieval Prussian militar-
lists There was one choice we could
not make-we were incapable of max
ing. We could not "choose the path of
submission and suffer the most sacred
rights of our nation and our people to
be ignored and violated. We are de-
Tending our rights as a free nation.
We are resolved that there shall be an
end of brute force in international af-
fairs. What Germany's victory would
mean to the world is plain. There
would be no right except might, no
peace save at the price of humiliations
too bitter to be borne. Small nations
could not exist There would be no
sanctity to pledge. no solemnity to a
covenant. With the dominance of
Prussian militarism, the Anglo-Saxon
struggle for free institutions and lib
erty will have been in vain. It is to
prevent this, to defend our rights, and
make possible an orderly and just peace
in the world that we are at war. The
nation calls on its citizens for high and
noble service. On some it calls for
service in the field; on others for SER
vice at home; on all it calls for finan-
cial support. Every patriot will regard
it as a privilege to participate in the
Liberty Loan. He will thereby con-
tribute directly and effectively to the
successful prosecution of the war which
Germany has forced upon us.
