APPEAL FOR THRIFT
President Asks Citizens to Buy
Only Essentials.
SYSTEMATIC SAVING URGED
People Requested to Pledge by June
20 to Invest in War Savings and
Thrift Stamps, or Other Government
Securities.

Washington, d. C.-To save mate
rails and labor for necessary war pur-
poses. President Wilson appealed to
Americans ito buy only those things
which are essential to the individual
health and efficiency" and to volun-
teer on or before June %, National
Thrift day, to invest systematically in
War Savings and Thrift Stamps, or
other government securities.
This war is one of nations-not of
armies" said the president, land all
of our 100000 people must be
economically and industrially adjusted
to war conditions if this nation is to
play its full part in the conflict.
Pledge Is Sought.
"The problem before us is not pri-
marty financial problem. but rather
problem of increased production of
war essentials and the saving of the
materials and the labor necessary for
the support and equipment of our
army and navy. Thoughtless expendi-
ture of money for nonessentials uses
up the labor of men, the products of
the farm, mines, and factories, and
overburdens transportation, all of
which must be used to the utmost and
at their best for war purposes.
"The great results which we seek
can be obtained only by the participa-
ton of young and old in a national
thrift movement. / therefore urge
that our people everywhere pledge
themselves, as suggested by the secre-
tary 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 their labor only to the most
necessary tasks, and to buy only those
things which are essential to individ-
ual health and efficiency.
"Buy More U. S. Securities"
'"The securities issued by the treas
ury department are, so many of them,
within the reach of every one that the
door of opportunity in this matter is
wide open to all of us.
II appeal to all who now own either
Liberty bonds or War Saving stamps
to continue to practice economy and
thrift and to appeal to all who do not
own government securities to do like
wise and purchase them to the extent
of their means. The man who buys
government securities transfers the
purchasing power of his money to the
United States government until after
this war, and to that same degree does
not buy in competition with the gov
eminent.
Il earnestly appeal to every man,
woman and child to pledge themselves
on or before June % TO save constant
ly and to buy as regularly as possible
the securities of the government
THE 2Sth of June ends this special
period OF" enlistment in the great vol
unteer army of production and saving
here at home. May there be none I'M
enlisted on that day."

IL BOATS SUNK OFF IRELAND
Fleet of Fishing Vessels Attacked but
Men Are Allowed to Row
Ashore.

London, June 4.-Twelve of a feet
of 30 or 40 fishing vessels which left
Irish ports on the night of May 80 were
sunk by German submarine, says a
Belfast dispatch to the Daily Tele-

peared in the midst of the fleet and
ordered the fishermen to take to the
boats and row ashore. 1t then sank
the vessels by Smelling them.
The fishermen say the submarine
was interrupted in its work and sub
merged, which probably prevented de-
struction of the entire fleet. The fish
ermen lost all their gear, but there
