SEC'Y McADOO
MAKES APPEAL FOR
FOURTH LOAN

Washington, D. c., Oct. IT,
Subscriptions reported and esti-
mated up to noon Thursday
amounted TO four billion dollars
leaving at least Two billion dollars
to complete the Fourth Liberty
Loan. Only two days are left
within which to raise this vast
sum.
erica could raise SO vast a sum
in so short time.
America can and must do ii.
The destinies of the world and
the hopes of civilization are cen
tered upon America. We shall
fail in everything we have fought
for and hope to gain in this war
if the Fourth Liberty Loan is de-
feated.
Let every true American citizen
today examine himself under the
white light OF patrioticm and say
whether or not he has done his ut
most in this emergency.
The highest obligations of duty
and patriotism command every
true American to go Immediately
to his bank or to his Liberty Loan
committee and subscribe 10 the
limit of his ability to the Fourth
Liberty bonds.
Don't delay. Don't wait to be
urged. Be as quick to do your
part in this Fourth Liberty Loan
battle as our soldiers in France
are quick to obey the orders to
charge the enemy.
Buy Liberty Bonds on The in
staIIment plan il you cannot buy
them for cash. Every patriotic
bank will help you.
If every patriotic citizen will do
his duty today, victory for the
Fourth Liberty Loan is certain.
The continued victories of our
armies in Europe, the certain de-
feat OF our enemies and the slor-
ious triumph OF the cause of lib
erty depend upon what the Am
erican people do in the remaining
two days of the Fourth Liberty
Loan campaign.

ENTIRELY TOO MUCH SOCIALISM
BEHIND THE PLAN.


II ia said in influential circles that
government control and operation OF
coal mines ls the next step. Tho idea
II that government operation OF tho
mines IN necessary TO the success Of
this country In It's management OF
railroad transportation. and TO the
economical prosecution OF the indus
tries Of the country Also TO the COM
fort. health and life Of the people
who maintain tho industries and pro.
duce the nations wealth. All Of
which sounds very nice. Hut when
we leave the realm Of theory and get
down to brasstacks. as the saying IL.
we discover that the reasons that
prompted governmental seizure Of
railroad control does not exist as re-
CARDS our coal mines. Tho mines have
produced more coal this year than
ever before in their history. owners
and employees have strained every
muscle and brain atom In helping win
the war. Tho only reason there has
been coal shortage has been because
the railroads were unable 10 haul the
great quantities OF coal produced.
Manifcstiy no blame. therefore. falls
10 the coal industry but to the rail-
roads And. with government control
- transportation, inability Go haul
sufficient coal should cease.
In this connection We should no,
overlook the fact that the demand FOR
coal this year has been greater than
In the history OF the nation--and this
increased demand has produced an in
creased supply. Tho needs OF the
navy and the requirements Of the en-
,cnte have been filled In the United
States. 90 that our coaimen not only
have mined a supply sufficient for
American use but have been supply
