Bad News For Berlin.

The war news from the eastern front
these days is bad news for the German
people. Quotations from German news
papers portray the gloom that overhanas
the people in the large cities. That the
people In the small towns and country are
equally depressed is not to be doubted.
The Liberty Loan bond buyers Of the
preceding loans have their share in the
success Of the entente allies. They fur
nished the sinews Of war not only to fight
the U-boats and to build ships, not only to
raise, equip. and send our soldiers over.
not only to supply them and our allies
with food and munitions. but more than
S6.OOO,000.000 Of their money has been
loaned TO our allies so that they may
prosecute the war with vigor and strength.
We here at home have an opportunity
TO send the Germans some more bad news.
The Germans have great respect for money
they know its vital value in waging war.
They know. too. that the support the Ameri-
can people give a Government loan meas
ures largely the support they give their
Government, the moral as well as the finan-
cial support they give their armies in the
field.
A Tremendous subscription to the Fourth
Liberty Loan will be as distressing to the
German people as a defeat for them on
the battlefield. and il will mean as much.
IL spells their defeat: it breaks their
morale; it means power to their enemies.
A subscription to the loan Is a contribu-
tion to German defeat and American vic
tory.

conservatIon OF Credit.

Not only should the goods and labor Of
the Nation be conserved for the prosecu-
ton OF the war the credit Of the Nation
must be conserved for the same purpose.
This is being impressed upon the banks.
and II should be impressed upon the peo-
ple' too-the borrowers from the banks.
All Of the banks Of the country are be-
ing urged by the Federal Reserve Board
to curtail their loans. They are urged to
loan money only where the borrower is
going to use it in some way that will aid
in or contribute to winning the war.
This policy is not aimed at hamperine
legitimate business. 1t aims to help win
the war. which is the best thing possible
for business. 1t simply means that money
wanted for nonessential purposes should
be refused. Let the nOnessentisls wait
until the war is finished. The Government
needs the money to carry on the war.
The farmers, the men and the industries
engaged in war work or engaged in pro-
ducine things needed for the efficiency
both Of our soldiers and Of our home peo-
pie. need the credit to carry on their en-
terprises.
Merchants should not borrow money to
stock up on luxuries or things that the
people should not buy at this time. No
one should borrow money now to spend
needlessly or eXtravaganty. Unnecessary
building, unneeded articles, unessentiaI
enterprises should all await the ending of
the war
The Federal Reserve Board points out
that in the interest Of successful Govern
ment financing il would be much better
for the banks to hold credit within rea-
sonable bounds by intelligent cooperation
rather than to discourage borrowing by
charging high interest rates. The people
should cooperate with the Government
and the banks in this policy Of conserving
credit and curtailing borrowing except
where the money. directly or indirectly.
