PRESIDENT ASKS
ALL TOOBSERVE
|WARSAVINCDAY
CALLS ON ALL AMERICAN ciTI-
ZENS TO RALLY TO ASSIST
ANcE OF THESE CONDUCTING
THE CAMPAIGN.

President Wilson in a proclamation
issued from the White House recently
called on all American citizens to raj
ly to the assistance of those who are
conducting the War Savings campaign
in the various states. The President
asks Americans to pledge the amount OF
War Savings Stamps they will absorb
during the remainder of the year in the
following language:
This war is one of nations-not OF
armies-and all of our hundred million
people must be economically and in
dustrially adjusted to war conditions ii
this nation is to play its full part in
the conflict. The problem before us il
not primarily financial problem but
rather a problem of increased produc-
tion of war essentials and the saving
of the materials and the labor neces-
sary for the support and equipment
of our Army and Navy. Thoughtless
expenditures of money for non-essen-
tials uses up the labor of men, the pro-
ducts of the farm, mines, and factories
aud over burdens transportation, all
of which must be used to the utmost
and at their best for war purposes.
The great result which we seek can
be obtained only by the participation
OF every member of the nation, young
and old. in national concerted thruft
movement. l therefore urge that our
people everywhere pledge themselves
as suggested by the Secretary of the
Treasury. to the practice of thrift, to
serve the Government to their utmost
in increasing production in all fields
necessary to the winning of the war.
to conserve food and fuel and useful
materials of every kind; to devote then
labor only to the most necessary
tasks; anu to buy only those things
which are essential to individual health
and efficiency; and that the people, as
evidence of their loyalty, invest all that
they can save in Liberty Bonds and
War Savings Stamps. The securities
issued by ythe Treasury Department
are so many of them within the reach
of every ore that the door of oppor
tunity in this matter is wide open to
all Of rs To practice thrift in peace
times is a virtue and brings great bene-
lfit to the individual at all times; with
the desperate need of the civilized
world today for materials and labor
with which to end the war. the prac-
tice of individual thrift is a patriotic
duty Iecessty.
/ appeal to all who now own Liberty
Bonds or War Savings Stamps to con
tinue TO practice economy and thrift
and to appeai to all who do not own
Government securities to do likewise
and purchase them to the extent OF
their means. The man who buys
Government securities transfers tie
purchasing power of his money to tie
United States Government until aftel
this war, and to that same degree does

The naval machinery to meet SUB
marine operations on this side was
perfected long ago. It began to operate
the day war was declared.
Today, many hundreds of scout craft
of every kind. from light cruisers and
destroyers down to motor launches, are
patrolling the coast from end to end.
Naval dirigibles and airplanes are in
creasing in numbers. Mining and net
ting operations are very extensive.
The naval reserve forces manning
the coast patrol operations have had
more than a year TO perfect the off
shore and inshore defenses against the
submarine.
These men of IN. r. f. sometimes
jokingly referred to by other branches
of the service as the Never Reach
France men. now have the same OPP
portunity TO distinguish themselves as
the hard working seamen in the Brit
ish navy trawler and motor launch
service have had. The navy depart
ment believes they will give just as
good an account of themselves.

house. governor of the Aero Club of
America, pointed out the possibility
of aerial raids on New York and our
coast cities, as a coro!lary of subma-
rine activity on this side of the Allan
tic.
What seemed then a remote posi-
bility is today an immediate probabil-
ity.
America is for the first time face
to face with real war at her very
doors.
The sinking of American ships by
the subs on this side is onf.s fore
runner or what we may expect. II
we awaken some night to the dropping
of high explosive bombs in our streets
we need not be surprised.
Certain action has already been TAX
en- by the government to prepare for
such raids. but of course, if they grow
an actuality, our air defense in all
cities along the Atlantic and Gulf
Coast must be built up to rival the
defenses of London and Paris.
Another thing that must be faced is
the bombarding of undefended coast

The English watering places along
the coasts were repeat edfy sfrelled by
German light forces during the earlier
part of the war. for two purposes
in a campaign sof frightfulness by
which the Hun has always thought he
could frighten his opponent. and sec
ondly. in an effort to cause such a de-
mand for protection of the coast towns
that the British grand fleet in the
North Sea would be sent along the
English coast to protect the towns,
thus permitting the German high seas
fleet to break through the cnkdon.
Neither result was achieved.
The British were not frightened, nor
did the British Admiralty make the
mistake of dispensing the fleet for the
mere protection of coast towns against
raiders.
If the German submarines do bonn
bard our coast towns. such as Atlantic
City, Ashbury Park, Ocean City, and
other undefended places, there will be
pressure from local interests to bring

and an additional $50, 900 employed in
making the engines, boilers, winches
and other machinery necessary to
equip them.

the United States hopes to put into
service a new merchant marine that
will rival the trading fleet of any ma

result that industry long will regard
