HAYWOOD COUNTY'S QUOTA
FOR FOURTH LIBERTY

The United States Government Has
Fixed the Amount of Bond Sales as
Above, and the Sales Must be Made.
st. Louis, Mo-, Sept. 27-The quo
ia of Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds to be
sold by Haywood county in the cam
paign that opens Saturday, September
20, and closes Saturday, October 10,
covering period Of three weeks, is
100000.
This county's quota of the Third
Liberty loan was $150,250 and the
amount of bonds sold totaled $1S0,50
The quota for the prestn campaign
is considerably larger than former
loans and to reach the sales allotted,
and go over the top and demonstrate
to the world that our county is 100 per
cent American depends upon the
prompt response Of our citizens.
This county has done its full duty
in the past, and now that our boys are
on foreign soil, ready to wrest victory
from the Hun there is no question but
the loyal citizens of the county will do
their full duty.

HOW GERMANY RULES
CONQUERED COUNTRIES
What America Could Expect If the Inn
probable Should Happen and the
Kaiser Win.

Copies of the Journal de Geneve
received at Washington show just what
sort Of peace the Germans enforce on
conquered people when they. feel
I.ble to dictate to the conquered.
BY cable from London and the &C.
newspaper Just mentioned it appears
that some other terms forced by the
Huns upon The Rumanians, the whole
male population from IA to 60 is sub
ject to forced labor at the win of the
Prussians. Under this decree Ruman-
ian farmers. have been required to
work at long distances from their
homes and for the sole benefit IF the
invader.
Officials here point out that Amer
lea can expect 10 better peace terms
from the Huns in case the fortunes of
war should turn against this country
and the Germans should dictate how
we should make peace and manage our
affairs.
1t would mean that farmer in Mis-
souri, might be required to leave his
fcmily and farm to get along as best
they could while he was put on train
with thousands of others and taken TO
the passes of Alleghenies to build for
tifications for the Huns against any
possible rebellion of Americans against
their conquerors.
The same tactics has been followed
in Belgium, In Serbia, in Poland and in
the Ukraine of Russia, wherever the
Germans have made themselves the
masters. Rumanian elections have
been dictated at bayonet points and
the people are not permitted to pass
from one part Of the country to anoth-
er without special permits that are
very hard to obtain.
1t is this known history and these
known traits of the German character
that make those the most telling argu-
ments for subscriptions to the Fourth
Liberty Loan. 1t is only by subscrib-
ing the full loan that we are able to
maintain armies and keep up the fight
and it Is only by creating an army to
smash the Hun forever that we can
absolutely assure ourselves that this
country will not undergo the fate Of
Belgium, or Rumania, or northern
France.
If there were enough "slackers"
among the people of this country it
would only be question of time until
we were in the same condition. as Ru-
mania The world opinion is firm that
Germany had set out to make itself
master of the world

LIBERTY BOND ISSUES 49,
ABSORB SOCK Ranks
Hoarded Wealth Drawn from Secret
Places by Uncle Sans Call for Safe
Investment.

Socks, bed tickings. tin cans and
other improvised Savings banks are
rapidly going into the discard, and the
} boarded wealth they contained is
gradually fndinp its way into the
vaunls Of Uncle Sam through the Lib
ertv Bond route.
Experts in savings say that more
than ninety-fve per cent of the money
boarded and hidden away is so kept
because of the ignorance of its owners
who are suspicious of banks and I'M
willing to allow their wealth to get
out of their hands.
Years of education by savings
banks and trust companies have served
to overcome much of this distrust, but
no agency has ever proved as potent
in unearthing secret savings rs The
United States Liberty Bond issues.
Publicity regarding Liberty Bonds
has been so intensively handled that
full knowledge of their safety as in
vestments and patriotic features of
their purchase has filtered into quar-
ters not heretofore reached by bank
literature.
The result has been the bringing to
light of vast sums which heretofore
have been taken from commerce and
industry and hidden away by the saw
ing and thrifty. Even greater sums
from the same source will go into the
new issue.
Even the most ignorant and litter
ate hoarder Of money can be made to
understand that the United States
government is firmly back of the bonds
He can also be impressed that his pur-
chase helps to strengthen the position
of the government, thus making his
wealth the more secure.
Once the honrder has gotten used to
being parted from his money he will
rarely revert to putting his funds into
sock, and the ultimate result will
be the adding of incalculable sums to
the commercial medium Of exchange.
Every dollar in circulation and in the
banks increases three-fold the credit
basis Of the unit Of wealth,
Experts in saving are unanimous
that the Liberty Bonds educational
value in the field of savings has never
been equaled. The temporary with /
drawals from savings accounts will
in the long run more than be made up
when the proceeds of these bonds 90
into circulation, and the stream Of
interest payments begin to flow to the
owners.
Further, the sock saver can be shown
that he need never fear theft or loss
especially if he elects to buy register
ed bonds.
History and romance are full Of sto-
ries Of stolen savings and tears aad
suffering from the losses. Liberty
Bonds can put period to all such I'M
happy experiences.

An Editorial That May or May Not Square
With The Views Of The Forum
The Kansas City Star:

The Kansas City Star:
If the casualty lists that must follow the
Franco American offensive are looked forward
to with dread we can at least take home the les
Of casualties French and British expert
to
Casualties must always bear a well established
relation to preparation. War is a business, an
it is prepared for well or Ill, and what is true of
war is, Of course, true Of battle.
We can keep our casualties down by making
the enemy's big which is to say that we must
oppose him always with superior numbers That
is not only good economy but good military tac-
tics. Half measures Of any kind do not pay in
war or battle. It is better not to strike at all
than not to strike hard. Always to be outnum-
bered always to be forced to fight defensively is
ultimately to pay the price Of a victory without
getting the victory.
If there has been that phase Of the war or the
battle for the Allies it ended potentially when
America came in. 1t ended actually when Amer
lea had million in France France has
had 100000 men killed disabled, and we
know why. She never has had the manpower to
press an offensive home. America must not have
that number Of casualties, need not have Amer
lea must not and need not fight rear guard ac-
tons with an enemy 1t can outnunber by putting
its full strength forth. 1t is capable Of having
more men at a given point than the enemy can
have, and it choose where the point shall
be- It cannot do 1t by putting in few men at
time, or a few here and few there. That is to
be in full strength nowhere. 1t must be prepared
to make such overwhelming concentrations that
wherever they are thrown in, the enemy must
take the casualties and the defeat It is he who
must his strength ebb in costly rear guard
battles while we press him back from position to
position. He was able to make the French and
British pay that price through four years. If
he shall make pay it it will be because we
have not learned the lesson OF making our
strength save US. It will us If we put it in.
The weak army always suffers the losses. The
retreating army must offer up its rear guard d.
visions as a sacrifice. The army without re-
serves cannot win although it may lose the num-
bers that ought to purchase a victory. But Amer
lea is not weak it need not retreat, it has the
reserves. America must take to the battle the
strength that will give the offensive, the VIC
tory and the fewest casualties, all of which go
together. - B. a...@

tions of North Dakota and Twin City banks
at the present incorporating the North
Dakota banks really have loaned the
$4,000, which we doubt.
A few days ago The Forum had some
thing to say about the banking situation in
North Dakota, and the charge made by
Nonpartisan league organs that North
Dakota banks were buying commercial pa
per in the Twin Cities and refusing loans
to farmers. The Forum attempted to ex.
plain the system whereby North Dakota
banks buy commercial paper in the fall,
which natures in the spring, and then in
turn borrow from Twin City banks to fl
nance the crop. The statement was made
that probably not $4,000 worth Of Twin
City commercial paper could be found in
North Dakota banks at the present time.
One of the Townley publications re-
turned to the argument with the statement
that it had discovered $4,000 worth Of
Twin City paper.
All right, Accept the statement as the
TRUTH even though The Forum is inclined
to question it. But give some figures on
what North Dakota banks owe Twin City
banks right now. 1t will approximate
$l5,O00,O0O, if the federal reserve bank is
included. It's loans amount to about one
third Of this figure, the remaining $1O,-
100000 being loaned by privately owned
Twin City banks to North Dakota bankers
All Of that money is being used to fl
nance the crop movement. 1t is loaned to
farmers in this state to aid them in their
operations. The Townley publications
can't see that $15,OOO,OO0 and the other mil
lions from Duluth and Chicago banks, but
they can see only the $4,000 which two
unnamed banks in North Dakota are re-
ported to have loaned to Twin City bust
ness men.
Three months from now, conditions will
be in part reversed, and North Dakota
banks will buy short time commercial pa
per with their surplus deposits. Such a
mutual arrangement is good banking, good
business, good common sense and good pa
triotism.

"BIJRBANKED" THE DUCK.

Duck hunters, see what Louisiana is do
ing to us!
The state ornithologist of Louisiana has
"Burbanked' the wild duck and evolved a
species that will remain in Louisiana the
entire year.
Louisiana is the winter home Of the NAL
lard, which leaves for the North in the
spring. The state is also the home of the
Florida duck, which spends it's summers in
Louisiana, and goes still further south for
the winter. One Of each species was trap
ped and they were mated. The eggs, were
Matched, and the Louisiana Mallard' was
found to have at least hope of posterity,"
if it lacks pride Of ancestry. Moreover
it shows disposition to stick in Louisiana
for II months in the year-Heaven alone
knows why. Any duck without ambition
enough to get out of Louisiana at least for
a visit, probably wouldn't be worth hunt
ing anyway.
But are we going to accept this stab in
the back and do nothing? Who will be the

PASS THE NEW DRAFT BILL.

With no more delay than is necessary to
make certain that the measure is properly
drawn, and with a minimum Of oratory,
the amended draft bill presented to con-
gress yesterday should be passed.
With the main feature of fixing the draft
ages at 18 to 49, there can be no quarrel.
It is manifestly fair that class l men be-
tween the ages of IS and 81 and between
the ages of 81 and IS, should be called be-
fore the men in the deferred classes in the
present draft.
Glass l in the present draft rapidly is
nearing exhaustion. In fact it has been
exhausted in some communities, and it will
be necessary to call upon men in class 2
unless prompt action is taken by congress-
If the draft ages are extended as planned,
it probably never will be necessary to go
beyond class l for men for active military
service.
Another feature which commends the
new law, is the broader power given in en-
forcing the work or fight regulations. The
government now will be able to reach all
men from Is to As years with these regula-
tons.
With the main features of the BILL there
fore, there can be no quarrel, and the de-
tails can safely be left to the war depart
rnent and General Crowder after the ex-
perience of the first draft. That was han
died with rare efficiency and absolute JUS
tice
If congress, therefore, desires to keep
American reinforcements going forward
with a minimum of injustice and discrim-
nation, its duty is to pass the draft bill and
pass it quickly.
