In considering these figures It Il
necessary to take several circumstanc-
es into consideration. First, that the
money raised by bonds in America
has STAYED IN THIS, COUNTRY
while the money from England and
France, for instance, has gone out Of
the country, most Of it coming to
America. Second. The United States
is infinitely richer than any Of the
other nations mentioned. Also her
population is greater than most or all
of them. A table showing per capita

small indeed. Third, all Of the other
nations-and especially the Teutonis
Allies-have had war taxes to meet,
many times greater than our own.

If enthusiastic reports from county

campaign has been going forward in

worker will be armed with Lieu

from one to u dozen names. The work
err will be responsible for calling upon
and securing the subscription of the
individuals allotted him.
1t is hoped to get this part of the
work over not later than Thursday,

and Saturday will probably be assign
ed TO a general "free-for-all" with
street meetings (perhaps another "hy-
ing squadron" trip and with all lieu
tenants working independently, secur-
ing the pledges that may have been
missed.
The 4th Liberty loan will differ from
previous campaigns here in just this
one point: During the early days of
the drive you will be expected to
await personal solicitation and GIVE
YOUR BOND APPLICATION ONLY
TO THE PERSON TO WHOM YOUR
NAME HAS BEEN ASSIGNED. If
you have to leave town or for any
other reason you cannot be solicited,
you may make application at your
bank or call up local campaign head
quarters for special solicitation. But
Ordinarily you will be expected to
await personal call. Then after the
first five days when the general soli-
citation begins, if you have not al
ready bought or il you can buy more.
YOU TAKE THE INITIATIVE and
see that your application goes in.
