MANY OWN LIBERTY BONDS
Conservative Estimate That There 10
One in Every Home Throughout
the Country.

Before the war there were sub
stantlally 100000 savings bank de-
posltors. Add to this 100000 de-
posltors In state banks, which list, Of
course, includes many commercial &C.
counts; 100000 postal savings bank
ileposltors and 100000 depositors In
private banks. After eliminating du.
plications. 1t wouIo likely be lib
eral to estimate that there were Ia,
100000 money savers in the United
States before the war. with not to
exceed 100000 families probably
represented In this number The
fourth Liberty loan was supported by
21,000,000 subscriptions. It would
likely be extremely conservative to say
that 100000 others have subscribed
to former issues of the Liberty loan
and were unable to do so In the fourth
loan. We can then with safety say
there are 24,0OO,000 owners Of Lib
erty bonds in America today. BY
the elimination of 100000 for dupll-
Gates we are not in danger Of misstat-
ing facts when we say that there Is
now bond in every home in the coun-

Morale Of Army.

New York.-The week. of December
Is has been designated by the war
department commission on training
camp activities as time for special
letters to be written by mothers

week, and the purpose is to apply the
s'home touch" to a broad-gauged mill
tary program for maintaining the
morale of the men who find them
selves idle after weeks of strenuous
fighting. The war department hopes,
through these letters to keep the men
contented, straight" and ambitious
TO live up to the high ideals of Amer
lean manhood.
A model letter such as the govern
ment wants the mothers and fathers
especially TO write has been prepared
by the war department. This, with
letters from Secretary Of War Baker
and Raymond b. Fosdick, chairman of
the commission, indorsing the plan,
has been mailed to newspapers
throughout the country. The letter
particularly asks that the men over
seas direct their attention to whole
some recreation and activities, instead
of to the unwholesome influences that
might result from the enforced period
Of idleness wherever large bodies of
troops are awaiting orders to return
home.
