Liberty Loan will open satur.
day, September %, and contin-
ue three weeks, ending October
10, it is annouced by Secretary
McAdoo.
In fixing three weeks as t h @
length Of the campaign for the
fourth loau, instead OF the four
weeks, as in previous loans, trea.
sury officials plan for a more in.
tensive campaign. A shorter cam.
paign, it is said, will also enable
more business men to enlist as

The date of the campaign was
announced at this time ia order
to allow campaign organization
to prepare for the sale Of bonds
and to prevent the planning Of
other campaigns Which might ill.,
terfele with the hota'ion OF the
loan. Although official annouce
ment has not been made, the
amount OF the loan probabl,
will be $4,000, 100000 and Il e
rate of interest which the bonds
will bear AZ per cent. Should the
treasury decide soon to place en-
tle market certificates vi indebt-
edness next June when taxes are
due, tie amount oi the loan may
be reduced.

paigns. President " ilsou has re-
ceived several invitatio tc

Lloyd es,rgs Urges People to Hold Fast

"HOln fast! Is the message OF
Premier Lloyd George to the
pee pie OF the British empire on
the fourth anniversary OF Great
Britain's entry into the war.
"Our prospects of victory have
never been so bright as they are
today" says the prime minister.
The message IN full follows:
"The message which l send to
the people OF the British empire
on the fourth anniversary Of
their entry into the war is a sin.
gle Hold fast!'
1--WE are in this war for no sci.
fish ends, We. are In it to recover
the freedom for the nations which
have been brutalIy attacked and
despoiled, and to prove that no
people, j., however
powerful, can surrender itself to
the lawless ambitions OF militar.
ism without meeting retribution,
swift, certain and disastrous, at
the hands OF the free nations OF
the world.
"lo stop short OF victory for
this cause would be to compro.
mise the future of mankind.
81 say Hold fast because our
prospects for victory have never
been SO bright as they are today.
"Six months ago the rulers Of
Germany rejected a just and rea.
sonable settlement proposed by
the allies. Throwing aside the
last mask of moderation, they
partitioned Russia, enslaved Ru.
mania and attempted to seize
supreme power by overwhelming
the allies in a final, desperate at.
tack.
Thanks to the invincible bra.
very of the allied armies,,it isno"
evident that this dream OF uni.
versal CONQUEST for tue sake OF
which they want only prolonged
war, can never be fulfilled.
"But the battle is not yet won.
The great autocracy Of Prussia
will still endeavor by violence or
guile to avoid its great defeat
and 10 give militarism a new
lease OF life.
eve cannot seek to escape the
horrors Of war ourselves by lay.
ing them up for our children
Having set our hands to the task
we must see it through till a just
and lasting settlement is achiev
ed.
In no other way can we insul
q world set free from war.
Hold fust!"

ulated upon having been chosen
as the manufacturing and dis.
tributing centre for q type set
ting machine that was invented
by a North Carolinian and which
is to be vurned out in q North
Carolina factory by North Caro-
linians. The Greensboro News
makes the interesting announce
ment that the Cade Manufactur-
ing Company has purchased a

erect a plant to manufacture the
typesetting device invented by
the Reverend Baylus Cade, D. D.

and getting it so perfected that
it would appeal to investors asa a
practical proposition.
The Cade Manufacturing Com.
pany lis capitalized at $500,
900, and the stock has been lib
orally subscribed in various parts
OF North Carolina, although a
considerable lot OF stock was ia.
ken by Northern investors. The
company expects to turn out l..
900 machines a year for the pres
ent, with provisions for taking
care OF any increased demand for
the future. Since the model ma.
chine was manufactured and per-
fected in Philadelphia the device
has been manufactured in a linn
tied way in that city, but the in
creasing demand has FASTENED
the plans for the establishment

| 4 Proclamation Iy tbs esvsrnsr.
Last year the whole world was
thrilled when the news flashed
over the wires that Jerusalem
had been delivered from the hands
OF the Turk. The feeling was
universal that the Holy City
should be restored to the people
who had builded it and with
whose history it is forever asso-
ciated. This is a fine sentiment,
but finer and vastly more i'm.
portant than the restoration OF
the Holy City is the salvation of
millions of Jews from hunger, di.
sease and death. In Turkey, in
Palestine, in Luthania, in Rus.
sia, in Poland and in Galicia
starvation starvation stares the
cbildN OF Abraham in the face.
Daily Jewish husbands see their
wives grow t hin and pale and
fade away into the Great Silence.
Daily Jewish babies tug franti.
cally at breasts that are wither-
ed and dry; and above the din Of
battle is heard once more the
voice OF Rachel weeping for her
children and refusing to be COM
forted because they are not.
call upon the good people OF
North Carolina to hearken to
this cry, to rally to the help OF
the helpless and once again to
show themselves worthy of the
high service they are privileged
to render, The bounded, hun.
gering Jew can we'll afford to die.
We cannot afford by indiffer nee
and inaction to have his blood
on our hands.
Therefore, l, Thomas Walter
Beckett, Governor of North Car.

given in all the churches of the
State that the following Monday

Day, and the people will be civ.

stricken race.
On Monday, the 10Th day If

VALUATIONS ON
CITY PROPERTY
ARE BOOSTED
So 929 S99 Added on Realty by
the Latest Tricnnial
Assessment

Property valuations in Harrisburg
have been increased i'm the triennial
assessment to $62.940.9S5, an ad-
vance OF sS,929,S99. CITY Assessor
James {. Thompson announced to-
day. During the entire summer Mr..
Thompson, with Harry w. Koeny,
Dewitt \. Fry and II. c. Townsend
as assistants, has toured the city
and revised the valuation of each
property in an effort to make an
equitable assessment.
Should the city tax rate for 1919
be fixed at 10 mills again by City
Council, the increase in revenue by
direct taxation will range from $S0,-
OO0 to $4,000. Part of the big in
crease in valuations was caused by
the erection of the Penn-Harris Ho-
tel. which has been assessed at $780,
o00. and the site on which it stands
at $2l2.00O. The Central Iron and
Steel Company was advanced from
$4,000 to $4,000: the Harrisburg
Pipe and Pipe Bending Company
from $4,000 to $4,000. The
Third ward shows a big increase be-
cause of the hotel valuation and the
